Stay At Home Move

Whether you're shopping for a pal, or simply ready to treat yo'self, here is "The Most Dreamy Valentine's Roundup Ever" (says me). You're welcome.
I was online shopping as I normally do -- in the early hours (so early it could still be considered the middle of the night), from my bed, having just fed the baby and pondering if I should get up and have an epically early start to my day or get back to sleep for a few more winks....
For a HIIT workout, the 2 most important things = leggings that stay in place & a sports bra that does its job. We're looking at Zella for exercise at home outfits.
I am a total gym junkie. I have lived a very active lifestyle since I was a tiny tot and that has carried over into my adult life, too. I am a huge fan of group fitness, and ever since the pandemic hit, I've missed my workout classes! And I've personally found working out at home to be a...
Colorful lounge & activewear is a mini-solution for big motivation. Zella leggings & joggers is just right to get us moving (or help us rest when we need too.)
I need all the motivation I can get to move my body. New workout clothes in exciting colors never fail, and Zella is killing it with pretty hues and a great fit, plus some other pieces I find perfect for mom life and lounge time. Earlier this year, I was working out four to five days a week --...

Winter Coat Try-On & Review

Warmth and comfort have taken on a whole new meaning this year. Especially now that winter is almost here and seeing anyone outside our little social bubble means actually spending time outside (masked, of course). So warm and comfy coats? A must. The Lowdown On Warm Winter Puffer Coats: A Video Review But I find winter coats--especially puffer coats--really...
Vuori joggers & leggings are the kind of activewear I never want to take off. Sustainable, soft, technical & wildly beautiful. A review.
A huge thank you to Vuori and ShopStyle for sponsoring this post. Scotti has been raving (and raving) about Vuori joggers for quite some time now, so when the opportunity arose to test them out myself, I didn't hesitate. And I can now see why there's been so much fuss — not only is the fit spot-on, but the fabric...well:...
Deep conditioning masks, exfoliators, bath salts...presents for a spa day at home are on order. Gift a few of these for the ultimate pampering self-care kit.
The stress is real this year. And as much as I'd love to go on a spa weekend getaway, that's just not happening right now. Mostly because of Coronavirus, but also because...$$$. Those spa treatments don't come cheap. But who's to say we can't just recreate some of them in our own houses? (For a fraction of the cost,...
In addition to my beloved Slip silk face mask & pillow case, my absolute fave low-maintenance hair, makeup & skincare products at Nordstrom.
For someone who doesn’t spend much time getting ready in the morning, I spend A LOT of time researching, purchasing and trying out beauty products. My desire to keep my head on that silk pillowcase for as long as possible each morning is STRONG. And this desire heavily influences my dedication to finding THE most efficient "get-ready routine" possible....
Hiking the trails in the Wissahickon Valley of Philadelphia is gorgeous — & also...quaint. Our family-friendly outing (+ what to wear hiking,) inside.
I'm embarrassed to admit that we've been living in Philadelphia for ten years nows...and we had never gone hiking in Wissahickon until last year, The Ninth Year of Our Residency in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. One of the coolest things about Philadelphia? It's old, man. At least by U.S. standards. And the Wissahickon? Well. Once inhabited by the indigenous Lenape people —...
Hunter rain boots are a go-to for socializing outside & J.Crew's cute, functional Perfect Rain Jacket is just that. Hello, physically distant fun!
I'm an expert when it comes to warm puffer coats up here in the U.P. of Michigan, where our winters last roughly from October-April. (I kid, but we've literally had snowstorms in May.) This fall, though, I realized I had no raincoats -- absolutely nothing to put on when it's raining outside. This was never really that big of...
The Mom Edit LOVES Athleta. Super-functional activewear + cute styles & comfy fits -- sustainable & plus-size options, too. A loungewear win.
This crew LOVES Athleta. Their pieces are super-functional, no doubt -- but it's the cute styles and comfortable fits that keep us coming back for more. And ps. they carry sustainable & plus-size options, too. Always a win. Once Stay-At-Home hit, the obsession got real, and now, some of our contributors are swearing by this stuff for School-At-Home (or just...
