While DC isn’t my favorite place ever, I have to admit it has its moments. Cherry Blossom season is definitely one of those moments, though sadly it is very fleeting. This year, Toby was out of town for “peak bloom” (which is only a few days), but he got back just in time to see the […]
Perhaps it’s all the ballet classes I took as a child, but pink and black is my favorite color combination. So when I was lucky enough to find this super neon pink cashmere sweater on sale at a Lilly Pulitzer store in Hilton Head, I immediately paired it with a black-and-white striped top and so-dark-they’re-almost-black […]
We found out a few weeks ago that after only two years in Carlsbad, we’re moving back to DC. Sad trombone. We’ve been trying to hit all our favorite spots before we go, so I made Toby go to the zoo with me again… and, when we were in Virginia looking for a place to live, […]
Nike’s NTC Tour made its only stop in the U.S. in April — and because it was just up the road in Los Angeles, I pretty much had to go. The only problem? I had no idea what to expect. It was scheduled for almost six hours (ending at midnight!) on a Saturday night in […]
You’ve probably noticed that I put my outfits together based on the event, occasion or location at which I’ll be wearing them. I think I’ve always been like that, actually: I remember going to a Phoenix Suns game when I was in middle school and wondering what the heck the woman sitting courtside in YELLOW […]
As someone with both sensitive feet and a love of beautiful high heels, choosing shoes is not easy. My job makes it extra difficult, since I don’t always know how long I’ll be standing, how far I’ll be walking, or what kind of terrain I may have to traverse on any given day. Even sensible […]
What do you wear when you’re going on an overnight flight from warm San Diego to not-so-warm London? -> I decided to go with cashmere, black jeans and trainers (as the Brits call them). And, of course, a giant bag to carry all my stuff! I brought several books with me (I’m halfway through […]
Happy Monday, y’all! We got lucky the other day when we were driving from Northern Kentucky down to Danville for Toby’s homecoming — it was an absolutely perfect day. So we decided to stop near Keeneland and take some photos with the horses. Obviously I was dressed pretty casually — we had brunch at Toby’s […]
One day in 8th grade, I saw the new girl (I recognized her from cheerleading tryouts) walking down the street, so I opened my window and yelled hello to her. Within a few weeks, Leigh Anne and I were basically inseparable. And, of course, in the few hours a day we weren’t together, we wrote […]
