Collins Birth Story

On March 11, 2020, our lives were forever changed when Collins Elisabeth Drake came into the world. A day that for so long felt so far out of reach, yet one that will live in our memory as the most special day of our lives. It’s the day we welcomed our daughter into the world and began our new journey as mom and dad! The emotions and experiences of that day are hard to put into words and why it has taken me nearly six months to share our story! There is truly nothing that parallels to giving birth and bringing another life into this world; an indescribable moment that I had to go through...

Winter Maxi Dress

Outfit details: DRESS | BOOTS | BELT | GLASSES Happy Monday, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. 🙂 For the first time in weeks the temperatures are forecast to be above freezing in the Carolina's, giving me all kinds of hope as we head into the week. Often times you have to choose between comfort and style, but not in this case. This dress from ASOS is so loose, flowy and easy to move around in. It comes without the belt, but I like to cinch my waist to add some definition with longer garments. This particular belt is really affordable and looks great with a pair of...

Pretty Little Garden

After Christmas, I'm over winter. Truth be told I could skip over sweater weather altogether for flowy dresses, fun sandals and warm weekends spent putzing around our garden. Speaking of garden, yesterday morning Floret Flowers full line of seeds and dahlias went on sale. I had anticipated this launch for months and sat anxiously by my computer, coffee in hand, ready to purchase my top picks the minute they went on sale. It can be a bit of a race for time as popular seed packs sell out fast; within minutes. In lieu of yesterday's launch, I wanted to share a handful of my favorite garden...
