A FEW TIPS FOR THROWING A COLORFUL SUMMER PARTY!
Summer to me means…BBQs, being near a body of water, ice cream/popsicles, ice cold beer (ginger beer this Summer) and enjoying the sunshine with friends + family.

They create hand-crafted and laser-cut wooden keepsakes such as: cards, prints, boxes, invitations, notebooks & more! Basically, they have taken the traditional paper card to […]

MY NEW SKINCARE OBSESSION: SKINVOLVE
Shortly after finding out we were expecting a little one in September, I went through a stage that I like to call….“the burrito stage”. In between feeling really nauseous and attempting to work on client projects, I had a couple of meltdowns where I cried to Cody saying nothing in my closet fits me or looks good on […]
A MONDAY MOMENT

OUR NEW HOUSE: AN UPDATE

MY SPRING CLEANING LIST
We are SO close to Spring here in Boston! At least that’s what everyone keeps telling me 😉 This winter was a rough one (it was just plain awful) and I couldn’t be more ready to open the windows, put on some good tunes and do a little Spring cleaning. Personally, I find cleaning very therapeutic…Cody […]
