Travel Adventures: Weekend Trip to East Tennessee

A few weeks ago, we stayed at a cabin in East Tennessee! Over the summer, we did a couple trips with our pod pals / family but haven’t really done any trips in quite awhile and were going pretty stir crazy. This was about 3.5 hours from Nashville so a fairly easy trip for us to make. We found this cabin on Airbnb and wanted to share a few photos from our weekend. We didn’t do much other than enjoy being in a new place, but the hot tub and indoor pool (!!) were definitely two huge bonuses to this space. Being able to drink […]

120+ Black Content Creators with Under 10K Followers

A FEW THOUGHTS I’ve been working in the digital marketing space for 10+ years and have led influencer campaigns for many brands. When looking to partner with influencers, often times, the first thing brands/clients look at is the content creator’s follower count. While that is an important consideration for finding partners, I wanted to share more about why brands should not ONLY look at the follower count. Brands often will only look at that number, and rule who will or will not be a good brand partner. But INFLUENCE is so much more than that follower number. Brands can and should look at other data […]

bedside refresh with wayfair

This post is sponsored by Wayfair, a brand I’ve partnered with and shopped from for years. Thanks for reading!  I’ve shared peeks at our bedroom a couple times, mostly on Instagram and most recently in this long blog post talking about our upstairs renovation. When we started our upstairs renovation in November 2019, the plan was for this area to be our guest bedroom, but we quickly loved it so much that we made it our room instead. Here’s what it this space looked like as a guest bedroom! This upstairs is very multifunctional; we have a dormer window office nook, a small living area, […]

Winnie’s First Birthday!

WINNIE CLAIRE IS ONE! I  wanted to share a few photos from her birthday party (just us four + my sister who was visiting). It was a really special day celebrating! I’ve shared a lot of times how I  was sort of anxious/dreading her birthday because well, her first year of life was not what I  wanted or expected. And, her first birthday made me sad to think about because I knew that a big party like we had for Lucy’s first birthday wasn’t going to happen during a pandemic. One thing I’ve noticed is that often these worries and sadness and just feelings of […]

Shop Lucky Collective Pillow + Floor Cushion Guide

ABOUT MY SHOP I started curating and selling textiles after a very inspiring trip to Marrakesh, Morocco in Fall 2019. During the trip, I spent countless hours wandering the souk, searching for treasures, and soaking in the beauty around every corner. Wandering around Marrakesh was this strange pull of the senses; there was so much color and beauty and liveliness but it was all situated amidst simplicity. Things weren’t curated to look perfect, but instead were imperfectly perfect in their own way. It was magical. I was especially drawn to the vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and stunning textures of the textiles I found, and I […]
