Baby Shower Glam: How I put together the perfect baby shower look
There are so many beautiful details to share from my baby shower last weekend, but I can’t think of a better way to start than with how I put together my look. I know, it’s been way too long since my last blog post, but I swear the time I spent away from the blog…
MY Maternity Style
Our babymoon to Lisbon would not have been complete without a maternity shoot at Praça do Comércio.

MY Ultimate “No Frills or Chill” Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
Pregnancy is inherently challenging, but as far as pregnancies go, it seems I’ve had a relatively easy one – no major complications, vomiting, excessive weight gain, swelling or insatiable cravings (fingers crossed for an uneventful third trimester). But one surprising side effect of this pregnancy has been my general disinterest in food. I know, you…
Lisbon Maternity Shoot
After we decided on Lisbon for our anniversary/babymoon, I knew I wanted to take some time on our trip for a maternity shoot.

When Life Gives You Lemons: Styled by MY x WhoWhatWear Collection
I cannot believe it’s been a week since our European adventure in Spain and Portugal (detailed travel blog post in the works) and that it’s officially the end of summer (and I barely made my way to the beach this season…fai). But, in order to extend my European Summer, I joined up with Who What…
Perfect Python Print Slip Dress
This summer, I’ve been obsessed with slip dresses and skirts in all of their varying manifestations – mini, midi, satin, printed – and the obsession has not subsided, especially since finding they are exceedingly maternity friendly. So before we get into how I styled my newest favorite slip dress, let’s engage in some real talk….
Button-Down Shirt – Two Ways
With a closet full of beautiful clothing, it’s hard to pick favorites. But the ones I love and wear most are undoubtedly the ones that offer versatility. During these warm summer months and as my body continues to evolve, I’ve been loving oversized button down shirts that are light, breezy and versatile. From classic white…
Perfectly Coordinated: How to Wear Matching Sets
Getting dressed should be as effortless as possible and nothing makes putting a look together easier than a matching set (aka co-ord or two-piece). Co-ords or two-piece sets have been popular for a few seasons- whether its a top and pant, top and skirt or top and short – but I happen to be particularly…
