NOW Trending: My Top 10 Go-to White Paint Colors
This is my personal journey, one story at a time from motherhood, aging, love, and loss to my dream of becoming an author.
Hi there friends! Do you live in the tri-state area? If so I would love if you would join me for a panel discussion during ICFF (International Contemporary Furniture Fair) with Interior Define. The CEO…
Hi there friends! We got back from our vacation to Florida last week and boy was it good! If you follow me on Instagram then you saw some of the highlights on my stories. We went to Madeira Beach & Treasure Island for 6 days. My goal was to relax, enjoy my family without my daily stresses, play at the beach, be fully present and read a book or 2. Long story short, I was able to do all of these things and more. I feel like a brand new person!
Hello Spring! I couldn’t be more excited to welcome you back into my life! It’s been a long, long winter! I look forward to this blissful season and spicing up my wardrobe with something besides a chunky knit sweater and jeans. Although I am not a big shopper, for some reason I actually enjoy it this time of year. Plus, we are going away in a few weeks to Florida so I am on the hunt for some new things to freshen up my personal style.
Hi there friends! It’s been a while since I opened up and shared some personal things about myself and since there are many new faces to my blog I thought this would be a great time to get reacquainted. I have written a few of these before so I will try not to be redundant. So…here are 1o things you never probably would have never guessed about me….
If you are like me, then you are curious about the “fixer upper” market. It seems to be the hot trend in real estate right now and every where you turn it seems like more people are jumping on board to see if they can cash in. Whether locally, within your own network of family & friends or on social media & television, it’s all the buzz and rightfully so. There can be a huge financial gain when entering into this rewarding game of real estate. But we all know how risky and time consuming it can also be, especially when doing all the work yourself. So the question is, is it right for us?
Hi there friends! Happy New Year! I have written this post in my head a dozen times and have even sat down to write it a few times but each time my mind took off…
Hi friends! This is my last post of the year! It sounds crazy to say that, how can it be, another year come & gone? It’s been an incredible year, not without it’s trials though but I am grateful none the less. One of the MANY things I am grateful for this holiday season is my continued friendship with Long Island photographer Michele Kats. She is a creative genius and such a sweet soul. Every year I am blessed that she takes our holiday photos, for without her I am afraid I would be in not one single family shot. I am the one usually behind the camera, so it gives me a break and allows me to be in the moment with my boys.
Hi friends! The holiday shopping continues with a cozy + classic gift guide for her! Yesterday I shared gift ideas for him that were sporty + classic, after John’s style and today these looks emulate…
Hi there friends! Today’s post is a personal one. Growing up I had very kind and generous parents. They both would give you the shirt off their backs and many times they did so with…
Hi there friends! I know things around here have been quiet this week. I do have a very good & exciting excuse. But first let me catch you up on what’s on the horizon and share this round up of beautiful cage pendant lights I have been meaning to post. As most of you know I shared my new kitchen lights last month in an effort to show you that you can make simple changes to your kitchen that will make a big impact without a full on renovation. Lighting is such an important aspect to any space, especially a kitchen.
A few weeks ago I had the privilege of attending the Better Homes & Gardens Style Maker event in Brooklyn, NY. This was my 4th time attending, I am always grateful for the opportunity and for the recognition of being a Style Maker. This year the event was at Hotel 1, a picturesque location right next to the Brooklyn Bridge. This hotel was A-MAZING!!! It was a great spot to spend the day learning, networking and catching up with friends.
I am soaking up the last few weeks of summer before my boys go back, I hope you are having a great summer as well! I recently made a decision regarding my health that I wanted to share with you. I never, ever thought I would be one to do this but I thought it was worth a try. I decided to go gluten free!!! It’s been almost 2 months now and I feel so much better!
