What’s In My Beach Bag
Mexico is all I’ve got on my brain lately. I leave in less than six days! I’ve been making packing lists in my head and today worked on my beach/pool bag. I picked up this Lilly Pulitzer Beach Bag last year at Von Maur and love it. It’s actually not a beach bag but an insulated cooler…. [Read More]
Save, Spend, Splurge: Beach Coverups
Josh and I leave for Mexico in less than two weeks! I am so ridiculously excited and dreaming of the ocean, blue skies, and warm weather. We’re staying at an all-inclusive in Puerto Vallarta this year and I seriously have no plans to leave the resort. We did so many excursions in Cancun last year… [Read More]
Fashion Deals and Steals
The end of winter brings about a time of re-focusing for me. I clean out the old in my closet and bring in the new. While I love the latest and greatest, I love a good deal way more. That’s why I usually shop off-season and plan far in advance for the year ahead. There… [Read More]
Save, Spend, Splurge: Gold Watches
It’s so funny to me how style changes as we get older. Growing up I hated gold. I thought it was ugly and for old people. Now I’m obsessed with it. It’s about all I wear. I also used to think watches were dorky. Now I think they’re incredibly chic. I just bought this Kate… [Read More]

Winter Wandering
I don’t know about where you live but it has been downright frigid here lately. I want to get out and stay active but it is so hard when I go outside and feel like I’m dying a little inside as I do. Too dramatic? I know Omaha is much warmer than say, Minnesota, but I… [Read More]
Shiny, Smooth Hair
I’m as low maintenance as they come with hair. I always let my hair air dry, usually wear it up in a bun, get it colored every few months, and have it decide for itself where it wants to part when I brush it in the morning. Add in shampoo and conditioner and you’ve got my hair… [Read More]
Fall Layering
We’ve entered the season of multiple layers in Omaha. I typically need a coat and the heat on in my car on the way to work in the morning. In the afternoon I’m usually heading home sans coat and with the air on in my car. It’s crazy and unpredictable, but that’s the nature of… [Read More]
Casual Classic + Ask Me Anything
Since Josh’s parents arrived we have been on a whirlwind tour of Omaha. We’re trying to hit up all of our favorite restaurants and things to do in the city. One of the things not originally on our list but Josh’s parents requested to see was the Nebraska Crossing Outlets that weren’t open the last… [Read More]
Lace with a Pop of Blue
Today I want to share the outfit I wore to work on Monday and to my monthly Junior League new member meeting. Our October meeting was held at the Nebraska Humane Society, an organization that is very close to my heart. We were given a tour and learned about how they rescue and rehabilitate animals, and… [Read More]
