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...

Soufflé Sweet Home
To share the eventful but blissful past eight weeks of our lives. So in years from now when we need a reminder of that time when we purchased our very first home... we'll have it here, to remember! Justin and I have been keeping a secret over the past two months and it's been killing us not to share! Obviously, we wanted to tell you right away, but there were a lot of moving parts that needed to be confirmed before we felt comfortable announcing the news... we bought a house! We close on our first home March 13th! Ahh, our first big adventure. We knew we were ready to sell our townhome,...
Closet Classics
Outfit details: BLOUSE | PANTS (similar, here & here) | PUMPS | BAG (similar, here) | SUNNIES For many of us, the most meaningful pieces of clothing are the ones we already own. They may not be the nicest or most expensive items in our wardrobe, and they probably don't fit with the latest fashion cycle. The attachment, pride and loyalty we feel for them comes from somewhere deeper. Is it an old college sweatshirt, your favorite pair of worn-in jeans (we all own a pair), an irreplaceable T-shirt from your most memorable concert, a splurge worthy accessory or, like me, something as...
Boone Hall Plantation
JUMPSUIT (love this one) | PURSE | SHOES (similar) Over the past weekend my husband and I snuck off to Charleston for some much needed time away. Living within a short drive of the charming city is a blessing and we consider ourselves spoiled to travel there as often as we do. Unlike the Northeastern parts of our country, Charleston experienced usual Spring-like weather with temps reaching 78 degrees on Saturday. It was exactly what this self-proclaimed "three-season-kind-of-girl" needed. If you love history and beautiful architecture, and have never visited the hauntingly gorgeous city...

Outfit details: Jeans: Levi's 501 | Top: Joie (In pink, here) | Boots: Anthropologie (similar) | Purse: FIVESTORY (Similar option, here) | Earrings: Lisi Lerch I'm the quintessential girly-girl, and gawk over the idea of picnics in the park, floral print everything and the soft pastels of Spring. Being a true Southerner, I live for warm weather months and with the temps nearing 70 degrees earlier this week I'm officially ready to bid Winter farewell. This floral sweater is part of Joie's Spring capsule and also comes in pink! I love the added texture of the sewn in blouse too. I featured...
