Oh no, you completely forgot that Secret Santa gift, a little something for your brother’s new girlfriend, or you and your friends agreed to not give gifts but half of the gang broke that rule. You waited to get something for your sweetie, or maybe your in-laws. You need to get a gift STAT. Well,…
I considered titling this post, “What to wear when you feel like sh*t but still need to go outside” for that is exactly what happened to create this look. Saturday it was raining and I felt under the weather. I didn’t plan on leaving the house; I slept in for the first time in a…
For a long time, I was a “Rules” gal. Remember the book The Rules? Buy a twin bed, play hard to get, and nab Mr. Right. I followed a version of The Rules with this blog for many years; I let brands come to me. My blog was around for so long that Google loved…

However, Nordstrom seems to be stepping up their plus size game. Recently perusing their New Arrivals, I saw so many stylish, pretty, professional, and downright fun plus…
Spoiler alert for friends and family, as this is the photo we used this year for our holiday cards… and our cards haven’t been mailed out yet! In fact, they haven’t yet arrived. Thursday, I spent the day at my mom’s, picked Emerson up from school, came home, took a shower and we all got in…
This week was a busy one. We put up our tree and holiday decorations, did our holiday card photo shoot and ordered cards, had two doctor’s appointments, work, and checking in on my mom. I’m writing this Friday at 5pm and I am ready to go to bed right now! It was a lot, but…
