Buffalo check is winter perfection. It’s a bold, classic pattern that pairs well with leggings and jeans, but can also be dressed up. I wore it casual here, but think faux leather leggings and booties or a knit mini with otk boots.Read More
Last Minute DIY Charcoal Facial Soap
If you’re reading this, you’re interested in a fun, last minute DIY gift – and this charcoal facial soap is your saving grace – not only for checking everyone off your list, but for your complexion too! I know, I know, it has “coal” in the title, but this is not the type of coal that will get a frown. No one is getting coal in their stocking, but they may be getting the best face bar and be extra surprised to find out YOU MADE IT. My two year old son helped, so I guarantee you can handle the easy 3 steps – melt, mix, pour. 4 if you count the packaging step.Read More
Pom Pom Wreath DIY
If you are looking for a little DIY fun to add to your holiday decor, let’s discuss this super festive, cozy looking wreath. It is completely easy, takes a couple hours, and is a kid friendly craft, too. I made an all white and cream pom pom wreath last year, and it happily sits above my mantle. It’s the perfect piece for my monochrome Christmas decorations, but you can do whatever colors tickle your fancy. A rainbow wreath would be gorgeous and fun (or just skip the DIY and get this one), or a mostly green yarn wreath with pops of color would look amazing. I’ve linked items to recreate this mantle below, and you can find a tutorial to make star garland here.Read More

Sherpa hoodie and the best high rise jeans
Currently obsessed with alllllllll these pieces. My sherpa hoodie is SO SO cozy and cute. It can be worn as a coat, oversized sweater, or bathrobe around the house.

Underneath I have a soft gray bodysuit. No shirts hiking up, no jeans falling down, and the coziest of sweaters on top of it all. Love.Read More
