If you’re like me, you probably love putting in some extra effort to make everyday life that much more luxurious and special. I still completely stand by that (after all that’s why I started this blog!) but this year I’ve noticed how some of those things have actually been adding stress for me. The desire […]
Stress. There is just so much of it and it’s taking a toll on our mental and physical health. Especially right now, with everything going on in our uncertain world, self-care is so essential. On my Instagram I try to post about self-care every Sunday (all the posts are saved to my story highlights if […]
It took us a long time to really get clear on our home decor style. Arno and I moved in together when I was 21, and I’m 30 now and I finally feel like we’ve got a handle on our style and I’m confident in choosing pieces for our home. So, in hopes that I […]

I have a confession to make: I used to be a plant killer. For years, I actually didn’t have any plants in the house at all because of my black thumb. Arno convinced me to give it another go though, and now I have over 40 plants! (I wonder if he has any regrets!). I […]
