Early summer of this year a dear friend suggested I start a “Mom Blog”.  I’ll be honest, I’ve not been a blog follower or reader until this year. I really had no idea where to start or what all it entailed. I didn’t even know what I should blog about starting off. What she told…

Bubbles, Sparkles, and Celebration

I swear every year I say- “I can’t believe how fast this past year went”. But it’s so true. Especially once the kids started going to school the years started going by double time. But, here we are nearing the end of 2017. I’ll be honest and say I’ve never really been one to set…

Holiday Gift Guide: For The Cozy Chic Ladies

It’s officially that time… I’m in full on Christmas mode. A few new decorations have arrived and I’m ready to decorate since I don’t host Thanksgiving dinner.

Sweater Weather

FINALLY! Weather in southwest PA has finally caught up with mother nature in realizing it’s fall. Up until recently it’s been bouncing back and forth between mid 70’s (kids were riding bikes in shorts last weekend) then down to the 50’s this week. I feel it’s finally safe to convert to my fall/winter wardrobe. I’m…

Under $40 Fall Styles From Nordstrom

Even though you’ll come across me splurging on a designer handbag or shoes about once a year, that’s generally the only time I pay full price while shopping.
