For The Love Of Eating Your Feelings

I’ve been in a pinning frenzy lately. With Spring just around the corner, soft yet saturated colors and light food is calling to me. Follow along with me on Pinterest to get a taste of what Spring means to me. And come say hi and connect on Facebook. I spent the day making Hayden baby […]

For The Love Of Spring Style Inspiration

Last week I attended Neiman Marcus Modernist event at the Fashion Island store. It was a 60 look runway show in the middle of the store featuring casual looks from their Cusp department all the way to Designer gowns. The show was flawless and inspiring. Even if your budget is not in the designer realm, […]

Daily Style – How To Wear A Rock N Roll T-Shirt

Motherhood Redefined – 6 Months PPD Free

Tomorrow, Hayden will turn 6 months old, and I will have made it through the first 6 months of his life, free of PPD.  The weeks after he was born, when I felt happy and at peace, there was always a thought in the back of my mind that I couldn’t count myself home free […]

25 Neon Inspired DIY Projects

With the conclusion of my Valentine’s Day projects a couple of weeks back, it occurred to me that I had completed a whole year’s worth of holidays and DIY crafts centered around neon. When the neon trend came about in early 2012, I wasn’t automatically smitten, but after a couple of months of seeing everything […]

Helping Determine Your Style Each Season

The good thing about taking outfit pictures of yourself, even if they don’t all get published to the blog, is that you start to get a good idea of the clothes you gravitate towards on a regular basis.  This can be really helpful in helping to decipher what your true sense of style is all […]
