I go on streaks when it comes to retail therapy, but last weekend I went to the mall. How vintage, right? Zoe overheard me telling The Boy I was running to Woodfield, and she begged to tag along. H&M, Zara, and Spencer's were high on her must-visit list. Here are a few things I loved at the mall and also a few things I bought online.[...]
I've seen a couple of other bloggers write this post, and I enjoyed them so much that I thought I'd do it myself. At the close of every year, I like to recelebrate small wins, favorite projects, most popular posts, and must have products, and poke fun at some of the design mistakes I made along the way.

Will they stay in style for years to come? Probably not, but for $39, I'm all in on giving them a whirl. Here's some trendy mom style inspiratio[...]

So to help shed light (see what I did there?) on the subject, I've been slowly making my 1986 home smarter and testing out all the smart lighting gadgets for you. A few months ago, I shared the best smart home devices and talked about installing smart dimmers a[...]
One of the biggest design mistakes — decorating your room with a rug that is too small, but what is a good rug size for a living room? You want to find a big enough rug for all your furniture to rest on (at least all the front legs, for sure). When it comes to rugs, size matters, so if you’re looking for a new rug for your livin[...]
