I always dread summertime. It seems to be everyone else’s favorite season, but I can’t stand it. I already have to manage my hyperhidrosis year-round (likely due to my high anxiety levels) so the addition of high temperatures and humidity to the mix makes me ABSOLUTELY MISERABLE. Over the past couple of decades I’ve discovered…
I am currently working on educating myself on white privilege (which I am ashamed to admit I was fairly oblivious to in my life) and making the effort to become a better ally to the Black community. Going forward I will be sharing anti-racist resources that I find informative (+ other ways to be a…
So you’ve already watched all of the seasons of your favorite re-runs and you’re starting to get bored… (yes, I’ve already watched all of the seasons of “Friends”, “Frasier” and “How I Met Your Mother”… so what? đ). I’ve been putting together some ideas on how we can pass the time! Right now everyone is…
I mentioned this incredible app in a previous Friday Finds post, but I decided that I should dig a little deeper to show you guys how freaking useful this app is! I don’t know about you, but I often struggle with getting dressed in the morning because I feel like I have “nothing to wear” even…
I haven’t been feeling particularly inspired lately… I don’t know what it is, but I haven’t really had much to share in the past couple of weeks. So, while I haven’t put together much of my own content outside of some drafts of random post ideas, I wanted to highlight some of the things that…
I struggle with summertime… I’m constantly trying to regulate my body’s temperature which is basically a 24 / 7 battle (read more about my struggles, plus tips for staying cool here!). That being said, one of the things that I actually do enjoy about this time of year is the abundance of fruits and vegetables….
I’ve had to become my own bartender while everyone’s been under quarantine, so in an effort to enjoy multiple cocktails without getting too buzzed and / or limit the calories I’m consuming I’ve created my own variations on a few classic cocktails (read: I’ve essentially created a bunch of different spritzes – ha!). I wanted…
Admittedly, I am an organized person purely out of laziness. I absolutely loathe having to spend time searching for something, especially when it should be handy / easy for me to find! My friends and family often come to me when they need a phone number or address because I always have them readily available!…
Growing up in Florida, I used to be a strictly bikini girl; I had an entire drawer of my dresser dedicated to swim tops and bottoms. Old habits must die hard because even though I don’t get to use swimsuits as often in the Pacific Northwest, I still have a swimsuit drawer. And while I’ll…
Some of my favorite summer childhood memories in Florida were spent on my grandfatherâs sailboat. I gained my âsea legsâ at a very early age and quickly fell in love with being out on the water. No matter what else was going on, if the sailing conditions were even remotely decent we were out on…
I absolutely adore the look of the Loeffler Randall signature pleated lamĂ© knot heels; they’re such a versatile pair of shoes and add just the right amount of zjoosh to an outfit! I originally fell in love with the Emilia and Penny mule styles, but Loeffler Randall also offers two similar versions that have the…
I mentioned in a recent post that for our second wedding anniversary we had decided to gift each other new towels. We have had the same towels for the entire time that we’ve owned our house (seven years! đł ) so they were overdue for an upgrade. It may not seem like the most exciting…
We were hoping to be in Bar Harbor, Maine with our relatives again for this Fourth of July like we were last year, but coronavirus had other plans. Celebrating Independence Day is undoubtedly going to be different this year, but that doesnât mean that we canât make it special (even if it’s just spent at…
đž: Business & Pleasure Co. I’m pretty happy with my curated swimsuit collection, but I came to the realization that my beach coverup game is pretty weak while we were on our trip to Hawai’i earlier this year. I can’t say that I have anywhere to actually wear a swimsuit in the near future (thanks,…
