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...

Spring Attire

Skirt: Club Monaco | Top: ASOS | Bow: Charleston | Shoes: Sam Edelman | Sunnies: Ray Ban Spring is my favorite season for many reasons: longer days, beautiful blooms and more than ideal weather. While the next few weeks are quite busy, home projects aside, Justin and I are excited for our schedules to free-up so that we can relish in the beautiful season. With spring breaks happening, Easter right around the corner, and lots of lunches and showers taking place, there is no better time than now to scoop up new pieces, like this ruffle skirt from Club Monaco.

Soufflé Sweet Home – Part II

Initially, Justin and I didn't plan on going into too much detail on Style...

Draper James

DRESS | SHOES | PURSE | SUNNIES | EARRINGS (similar, Tory Burch) Around this time of year, Charlotte always gets a burst of warm weather bringing clear skies and blooming flowers along with it. It’s a little tease into Spring (because it does not last forever) but I’m taking it as an excuse to pull out some of my favorite warmer weather dresses, new and old alike. I’m never one to skip out on an opportunity to go sans tights, so it’s always dresses for me on days like these. When Draper James asked me to feature pieces from their 2017 Spring Capsule I was beside myself with joy! The new...
