Hi lovelies!

I think it’s safe to say that when you have kids, EVERYTHING changes. Life as you know it is no longer the same and it happens so abruptly that I wasn’t even sure when it happened. Is it when you find out your pregnant? Or when you finally hold your baby in your arms for the first time? Who knows, what I do know is that it does happen and it happens fairly quickly. All of a sudden you don’t even recognize the women staring back at yourself in

I have been thinking about starting a blog for while now, actually years but I always seemed to find an excuse. I have no time, life is too hectic; I like to spend all my free time with Max when I am not working; I’m in school again- there is no way I can do both; I’m pregnant; Esme was just born and now Max is home for the summer with me; and the list goes ON. And then, I started to build a relationship with someone I knew for

Hi Lovelies!

Being that I am home with my daughter during the day while Max is at school, I find myself itching to release some creative energy. I have always loved DIY projects but kind of just used to pin them on Pinterest and forget about them.  Now that I’m home I find myself with a bit more time on my hands so I take the opportunity to experiment. It’s great to see what works for me and what doesn’t.. (Iron on decals for t-shirts are totally NOT my thing, lol.)

Hey Lovelies!

I am officially a Boxycharm gal! I haven’t had a subscription box for while, I cancelled my Ipsy bag about 4/5 years ago after years of receiving samples I never used. Sadly, I was just accumulating clutter and mini make up bags, lol! So, one day scrolling on the gram I came across this subscription and saw they were offering FULL SIZED products for just $21.99 a month. I actually couldn’t turn away and before my debit card even knew it I was signed up and ready to go!

Hi Guys!

The most wonderful time of year is upon us and it couldn’t have started off better than with our December 1st snow storm! I feel like each year it gets harder and harder to keep the magic alive with my 6 year old with all the gossip going around at school so I am always trying my best to give him the most joyous experiences especially during this time. I’ve put together a few places that you can enjoy with your kids during Christmas. I try

Hey guys! This past weekend I hosted my second ever Friendsgiving and my favorite dish/plate I put together was a charcuterie board! Being Italian, growing up this is a MUST HAVE always and when I say always I mean it! I think it is the perfect addition to your spread and it holds off your hungry guests until dinner is ready.

I decided to buy all of my ingredients at Trader Joe’s because lets face it- they are the BEST- price point wise & taste. Here’s what I used.

TJ’s Cheese

Know anyone that enjoys being cozy more than anything? During the colder months I know I’m all about staying in, popping open a bottle of wine & snuggling in my robe. I rounded up some really great gift options for a cozy night in. I’m so happy that you can still make cozy fashion with all these awesome gift ideas this holiday season.

Robe – $39.99 | Pajamas – $34.99 | Slippers -$17.00 | Mug -$3.00 | Boots -$39.99 | Candle – $6.99 | Sherpa Hoodie -$24.99 | Scarf -$16.99

Happy Holidays! 

Welcome back to my favorite time of year! Aside from the hustle and bustle of gift buying, over eating & over drinking I really do love the spirit of the holidays but I feel like each year it gets harder and harder to make Christmas magical for my kids.  I feel like, they have way too many toys & honestly pay attention to the toys for .05 seconds. 

I more focused this year on more quality not quantity and I know once my kids are older they will definitely appreciate

I’m almost 100% sure that fall is my favorite season to style. Still warm enough to want to look cute but cold enough for layers. You know what I mean? I feel like summer temps are so hot that all I want to wear is a tank top and shorts, then winter is so damn cold all I want to wear is a parka and snow boots; but fall is just perfect. Hats are big, especially when I’m on my 4th day of dry shampoo. They add so much

Let me tell you guys just how busy we have been – so busy that I had to keep Max home one day this week to squeeze pumpkin picking into our schedule. We have three parties this weekend and there was just no other way to swing it. Now let me tell you how luck was NOT on our side – we went to the farm the day after a Nor’Easter hit which means that the winds were not in our favor! There were about 3 other people pumpkin
