September rolls around every year, and I try desperately to get back to all the routines. Routines for getting ready for school, routines for after-school activities, routines for homework schedules, and routines for family meals at home. No more ice cream and boardwalk fries for dinner...PLEASE! Cooking those weeknight family meals, though, I could do without.
I actually enjoy cooking for crowds…Thanksgiving...

We love a high-top in this house. Having grown up seeing my stepdad rocking a pair of classic white Converse Chuck Taylors and then later adopting the look myself, it's so fun to see that I've successfully passed on my appreciation of them to my own kids.

Fair to say, this past year and a half has been one of change for everyone. For my family, it’s been that and more...spending all of 2020 at home, welcoming a new addition to our family, and watching my mini evolve into a little person who loves school.

We get asked quite often around here for more tween and teen coverage. I cannot pretend to know what teens would actually like to wear for back-to-school these days, but my fab intern Nova does!
Nova put together some rad outfits that we then pulled into a bit of a capsule wardrobe for teens who gravitate towards mostly black...
I LOVE summer and all the freedom (and ice cream) it offers, but I am the first to admit...by the end of August, I am SO ready to put an end to my kids' late nights, terrible eating, and general chaos our summers devolve in to. Routines calm me.
Yes, Shana...roll those eyes and give me a big "I want...
This mama has always adored picking out rad clothes for my girlie. It's been fun because she's only just now, at 8-years-old, started to have strong opinions about what she wears...and thankfully that still includes a love for great prints and bold colors. Yay!

I've always felt that excitement for the beginning of the school year, but this year -- this year -- is special. Last year we took Greenlea's first day of school picture on the front steps, her holding her laptop, ready to start first grade and then opened...
Y'all, I'm writing this on the first day of virtual school here. My girlie is so excited to see her classmates, even if it's just online. She definitely needed a space that wasn't the kitchen table (like last spring's locale) so we set off to figure out how we could make that happen in her room!
Her teacher sent out...
