Adulting isn't always easy, especially when it comes to feeling like you have your life together. Believe me, I'm literally the worst. But I have LOTS of hope, and I...
Back with another look at what I wore this week! I managed to hit the gym a couple of times this week (which I consider a win lol) and tried out my new sculptLUX workout set from Abercrombie. I’m typically picky about leggings, but these are so fitted that they don’t shift during a workout. I’m wearing an XS in top and bottom! I also got the chance to bust…
Despite being a millennial who grew up on skinny jeans, I’ve actually grown to love a good not-skinny jean. For years, I was hesitant to give wide-leg or trouser jeans a try because as someone who’s shorter (I’m 5’3″), I was worried they’d be overpowering or make my legs look shorter. But after discovering exactly how to wear not-skinny jeans, I’ve learned it’s all about how you style it. I…
Real-life inspiration on what to wear per season or occasion, or how to style an outfit based on what’s already in your closet.

Y’all know I’m not one for social media challenges, but I recently saw one that caught my eye. The 3x3x3 challenge is basically a way to create more looks with the clothes you have (something I love to do). It’d be perfect if you want to build a capsule wardrobe and have a limited number of items in your closet! What is the 3x3x3 challenge? The challenge is to see how…
I’m certainly no expert in the food-prepping department, but when I shared a few things I was doing to set up my family for the week, several of you guys were interested for links and to hear more about it. So hi! Let’s get into the links. I’ve linked everything I’ve been using each week below + see this list in my Amazon shop too. I use Branch Basics to…
Several of my most favorite content on BTD isn’t necessarily the most recent, so I wanted there to be a spot on the Homepage that showcased some of the BEST and most helpful posts from popular, timeless categories.

Y’all, I’m a huge overthinker – have been for years – for as long as I can remember, actually. There’s never been a time in my life where overthinking has...
One of my goals for the new year is to focus more on how successful people became so successful – and how I can learn from them (and hopefully become...
Happy Valentine’s Day y’all! Who’s excited? Who’s not? I’ve got mixed feelings about it tbh, but I’m all about having an excuse to celebrate. If you’re not a big fan...
I’m back with my unofficial book club on BTD today. OK, I don’t actually have a book club, but y’all know I love to read and I’m pretty much always...
In an effort to brainwash myself into getting my life together (…been on the #hotmess express lately), I decided I needed to make a list – a super list of...
I love when I’m reading a (usually non-fiction) book and I want to highlight basically every single word. You know that feeling? It’s SO good and you have SO many...
Hey y’all! Hope you’re having a good day! With such a positive response to my post about Tim Ferriss’ The 4-Hour Work Week earlier this week, it’s obvious that we...
I feel like – in many ways – my weeks have ebbs and flows. Some weeks I’m super into my workouts (fine, this is rare), others it feels like a...
How’s everyone’s 2018 going so far?! Have y’all survived the first couple days? I always find this week to be a tad overwhelming slash also pretty motivating. I’ve been spending...
I actually didn’t realize this until I went to write this post, but I’ve never had my own fridge. Whether living with my family or roommates, I’ve always been in...
My pantry is one of the areas in my house that I have yet to address because ugh. In other words, it has been a complete disaster since moving in. I haven’t...
I've been working from home for years now, and can't really imagine going into an office because I'm so used to my house now. And though the flexibility is freakin'...

Hi y'all! Today, I want to talk about makeup. More specifically, getting it to actually last. Because there's nothing worse than spending a bunch of time on a serious face...
Y’all have probably picked up that though I talk about beauty here and there on the site, I’m not one of those girls who lives and dies by makeup. Some...
We all know by now that washing your hair daily isn’t ideal. Aside from drying it out and stripping your expensive color treatments, washing and drying your hair is also...
Friday means it’s time for another wrap-up of looks I’m currently loving. Since we were sick with the flu this week, I’ll admit, I didn’t get out of the house as much as usual. I did manage to attend a fun Valentine’s-themed event and bust out this feathered top I’ve been dying to wear. It’s obviously a piece that needs a special occasion, and this fit the bill. (Although I…
I’ve shared a few times on social media over the past month or so that I’ve been working on creating a fun playroom for Blake and Four. We finally put the finishing touches on it recently, so I decided to do a kids’ playroom reveal in case you’re looking for inspo for your own home or just want to snag a few of the items we used for playroom organization.…

We’re in our jeans era, no? There were so many different styles of jeans on the January best sellers list! This may partially be linked to the How to Wear Not-Skinny Jeans series I did over on IG. >> If you didn’t catch it, start here for part one. A few of my favorite “not skinny” jeans are this wide leg style, these straight leg ankle jeans, and the OG high-rise…
January Amazon best sellers are here! There are a few usual suspects, of course. I don’t even know how long this thermal round brush has been a best seller. And these crew socks regularly make the list too. But this month, we’ve got a few new options on the Amazon best sellers list! For instance, this gorgeous green makeup bag has been a hit. It’s actually kind of shocking that…
