I haven’t yet shared our master bedroom on the blog because I don’t love it. And I’m honestly not sure I’ll ever love it. 😂

As has been well documented on this blog, Chicago skipped spring this year in favor of a painfully prolonged winter. Our family spent the season peeking out of our frozen windows wondering When?! Why?! How!? What!? …but as soon as the front door thawed enough to pry open, we headed to the beach. (On this particular evening, temps were in the 80s. So we had to go to the beach!)
Little Pink Houses
Striped Jumpsuit (On sale! You can also find it here. And love this similar maxi dress.) / Sandals (So comfy! Also available at Zappos and Lord & Taylor.) / Navy Monogrammed Crossbody c/o
Clearly, my favorite neighborhood in Charleston is the “South of Broad” area. Of course, it’s known to flood like crazy. But goodness. It’s ridiculously charming. So my apologies for the repeat backdrops… but I couldn’t help but bring my giant camera out for a spin while there!
An Open Letter to My Chicago Mom Tribe

A current struggle in my life is that I live far away from my mom, aunts and mother-in-law. Before I had Emma, this was difficult simply because I missed them and wanted to see them more often. Now, though, it’s even harder. Of course, there’s FaceTime, which has helped a lot. And my family has made SUCH the concerted effort to visit frequently and plan trips with us. Still, I dream about my mom being able to pop over. (And I know she does, too!)
