Oh, hi there. It’s been a bit since I last wrote - quite A BIT actually, because, well, life. However as I type with one eye to the screen and the other to the monitor, I know that my lack of writing perfectly sums up what’s been going on. The desire to enjoy this little space is always there, but between the heaviness of the world and our current busy season of parenthood, I’ve been feeling a bit uninspired (to say the least). When I first started this little blog, it was to share a bit of classic, timeless style inspiration - art, beauty, fashion - and to navigate through a moment that didn’t quite align with my personal style. And while that is all still true, things have changed… I’ve had a second baby girl (total #girlmom) and am mostly a SAHM with freelance jobs peppered in. Ok, but you’ve been doing the mom thing for a while right? Yes, I have, but I guess I’m a mother who felt the real shift between having one child and two. It’s incredible and super fulfilling, but also overwhelming, and I’m only more recently feeling like I can come up for air, two years in. I know it sounds silly, but things like getting dressed- finding my at-home uniform, making time for old interests (reading, cooking, yoga, museums, gardening, obsessive organizing) and adapting new ones (Cricut, ecological documentaries, Pilates, podcasts) has been a bit of adventure in self-rediscovery. All this to say, I’m back and the new content will be embracing my evolved sense of self. Yay, but what does that mean, really? You can be on the lookout for real mom style, recipes I’ve tried and loved, clean beauty, going green at home, and more. If you’ve made it through to the end of this, thank you! I hope you’ll join me as I welcome this new season of modern, classic style.
xoxo
