One of the things that brings me the most joy is gardening. 🌿

There’s just something about planting a tiny little seed, giving it some water and attention, and watching it grow and flourish. Kind of like raising a kid except that plants don’t ask for gas money, new shoes, or $20 for “food.” 😂

We’re still finishing our backyard, but in my head I’m already planning my little vegetable garden. I’m picturing fresh tomatoes, herbs, maybe some zucchini…because apparently planting zucchini is legally required for all burgeoning gardeners! 😁

Honestly, just being outside makes me happy. Sunshine, fresh air, flowers, the smell of fresh dirt and pretending I know exactly what I’m doing. 🌱

What hobbies brings you joy and make you smile?

Do what makes you feel like the best version of yourself. 💋

I’ve always had a very thin upper lip, and it bothered me for years. So a few years ago, I decided to start getting a small amount of lip filler.

I know, I know - cosmetic procedures—and fillers in particular—aren’t for everyone. And that’s okay. I didn’t do it because someone told me I needed it, or because I was trying to look like anyone else. I did it because it was something I wanted, and it made me feel more confident.

My advice to anyone considering filler: Do your research. Find a licensed, experienced professional. Read reviews. Look at their work. Ask questions. Get recommendations from people you trust and please don’t choose someone simply because they’re offering a bargain. Your face is not the place for a Groupon experiment. 😂

Honestly , you don’t have to change a single thing about yourself to be beautiful. But you’re also allowed to do something for yourself simply because it makes you feel good.

Your face. Your body. Your decision.

Do what makes you feel like you…..only a little more fabulous. 💕

In style? Out of style? Honestly…..who cares?

Never let celebrities, magazines, or social media decide what belongs in YOUR closet. Your style is whatever makes you feel comfortable, confident, and completely like yourself.

So, is it in style?

Never mind. It’s my style. 🤍

Hello? 📞

1990?

Yes….everything did work out.

No. Turning 60 wasn’t scary.

It’s actually been pretty fabulous.

Ohhhhh…and wearing SPF every day?

That was a REALLY good call. 😎💙

POV: It’s 90° outside, but you still want to look effortlessly put together. ☀️💙

This dress from Maggy London is exactly that kind of outfit. It’s lightweight, flattering, and the print has me feeling like I should be wandering the streets of a charming European town with a gelato in one hand and absolutely nowhere to be.

If you’re looking for an easy summer dress that does all the work for you, this one’s linked in my LTK.

Bobby and I clean up pretty nice. 💙

There are days you dress up because you have to….

And then there are days you dress up because your heart is so full you want the photos to last forever.

Watching Zander graduate last month was one of those days. Now, we’re back to our sneakers and jeans waiting for the next time we get dressed up - or maybe we’ll just wear this on our next grocery errand because, why not?!😁❤️🎓
