Life with Dudes Never Looked So Pretty
In the spirit of keeping it real, let me be the first to announce to you all that my summer style is not much to be inspired by. It’s not going to wind me up on a makeover show getting a fashion intervention. Again. But it’s been nothing to bog about really. In past years I could blame the heat. Fortunately, this summer has been
Summer is half way over but we still have many, many hot days ahead of us. It’s best that we dress for them! Sadly, finding the right shorts has been a legit struggle for me this year. Most of them are too short, and then the rest are too long. Everything either made me feel a teeny bit trampy, or a whole lot of old.

When they started and they were both chunky* and exhausted and living in that too small house in that basically regular neighborhood, and everyone loved watching them because they were inspiring and relatable and generally regular people even if Kate was sort of snappy and anal all the time?

Eighty. Degrees! Shave your legs, bust out the nail polish, and leave your coats at home! I got to enjoy the sidelines of baseball and soccer for the
As part of my Kohl’s ambassadorship, I received a sneak peek at the spring style soon-to-be-released as part of the Peter Som for Design Nation collection. So loving what I’ve seen thus far (keeping reading; there’s a giveaway!).
I am going to be filming a segment for a TV show on Tuesday. Naturally, when I received the phone call invite, the very first thing that went through my mind was: WHAT DO I WEAR! Normally, I would just wander into my closet and pick out one of my go-to outfits for situations such as this. Unfortunately, following our phone conversation, I received an
I’ve decided to take it back to the basics for the rest of 2013. Partly because I know that’s really all you guys have time for anyway as the holiday season approaches and you want to spend less time staring at me online and more time hanging out with your families. And, mostly because I’m busy baking mad treats in my kitchen and want more
