3.6 Friday Faves

3.6 Friday Faves Hi friends! Happy Friday! How was the week? Ours was a good one. We came back from the cruise and both kids had stomach bugs (the worst! Also this is the first time this has happened following a cruise), so a pretty low-key start to the week. I’m working on my cruise recap now and will post it early next week! Take me baaaaack to the land of no chores, beach time, nightly shows, and gluten-free Mickey waffles. What are you up to this weekend? P has a basketball tournament, we have a couple of NCL events, and the family is coming over for dinner. I hope you have a wonderful weekend ahead! 3.6 Friday Faves Fashion, beauty, random: Loving this lip pencil. It gives the perfect little pop of color and is hydrating instead of drying. I’ve been wearing the Kiln shade. This Farm Rio dress! The kids said I looked like the abuela from Encanto which I took as a huge compliment. Latest Vivrelle ! Obsessed with this Chanel bag. Everything they send is in perfect conditi...

things from lately

things from lately Sharing a lil recap of what we’ve been up to lately. Hi friends! How are you? I hope that you’re having an amazing week so far! We’re back from Disney cruise #7 – I’ll share a recap this week – and getting back into the routine. We came back and it feels like summer – it was 91 degrees yesterday! Ready for POOL TIME and for school to be over lol. For today’s post, I wanted to share some of the adventures and faves from lately! It’s been a packed few weeks around here. Our friends the Kleigers came into town for Beefsteak, which is one of our favorite events of the year. The Pilot is part of the organization that produces the event, and it’s an epic party with amazing food, auctions, raffles, cocktails, dancing, this year they had a full casino, and the proceeds support veterans and military families. I was lucky to have an entire morning with Betsy before the event: we hiked Tumamoc hill, (I hadn’t done this one in so long and remembered how much I love it....

200: Autoimmune Healing, Nervous System Safety & the Biggest Mistakes I Made on My Health Journey

200: Autoimmune Healing, Nervous System Safety & the Biggest Mistakes I Made on My Health Journey Hi friends! I have a brand new podcast episode live, and today is a very special one — episode 200 This is a short solo episode where I’m reflecting on my own healing journey and sharing the biggest mistakes I made along the way, especially during the height of my autoimmune symptoms. This episode is less about regret and more about perspective, compassion, and helping you avoid some of the same pitfalls if you’re in a season of healing right now. In this episode, I open up about what was happening behind the scenes when my lupus markers were positive, my nervous system was completely fried, and my body was very clearly asking for safety — even though I didn’t fully understand that at the time. This episode is especially for you if you feel like you’ve “tried everything,” are overwhelmed by information online, or feel stuck in a loop of doing more but not actually feeling better. ...

I LOVED the Beautycount...

Why a Support Layer Is the Easiest Outfit Upgrade

Why a Support Layer Is the Easiest Outfit Upgrade Ever notice how some outfits just sit better? The fabric falls cleanly, nothing bunches, and you look like you spent way more time getting ready than you actually did. The secret usually isn’t the outfit itself. It’s what’s underneath. Welcome to the support layer: a breathable, smoothing base that gives your clothes a cleaner line and gives you one less thing to think about. No squeezing. No discomfort. Just a polished foundation that works from morning coffee to late-night dinner. Let’s break down how to find the right one and style it with everything in your closet. The Support Layer Spectrum Not all shaping pieces are created equal, and that’s actually a good thing. Think of support layers on a spectrum: Light smoothing is your everyday go-to. It gently evens things out under t-shirts, knits, and casual dresses without any compression. You barely feel it. Medium support adds a bit more structure. This is the sweet spot...

Outfit Ideas That Turn Basics Into Statement Looks

Outfit Ideas That Turn Basics Into Statement Looks Your closet already holds the magic, and these outfit ideas that turn basics into statement looks start with the pieces you wear on repeat. A clean tee, straight jeans, a blazer, simple sneakers, those “nothing special” staples turn into the main character when you style them with intention. Think of it like your life in your 30s: you don’t need more chaos, you need smarter choices. So let’s take the pressure off “having nothing to wear” and give your basics the glow-up they deserve! The One-Step Upgrade: Big Effort Accessories do the heavy lifting when your outfit starts simple. It basically screams, “Go bold, but keep it polished.” Try a chunky chain, celestial jewelry, dramatic sunglasses, or a utility belt to change the whole vibe in seconds. A statement necklace also sits at the top of the “instant upgrade” list right now, especially when paired with a plain crewneck or a button-down you already own. Keep everything else cal...
