We just spent the week with some of our closets, most dear friends from our previous home city, San Diego. I am so filled up and grateful! Our week was spent making new memories, vulnerably sharing challenges and reminding each other that being together and living in each moment with people you love is like splashing cool water on a rosy-cheeked face. It was so nice to slow down and be aware of the places, spaces & people who enrich our lives so much; especially to share it with someone who I adore so greatly!
I’m feel replenished. ? @kaleighdsimmonsphoto

Sweater weather I see you! But shoot, sweaters mean cold weather & I swear I already feel my lips getting chapped. If it weren’t for pumpkin desserts and fires in the fire place while the leaves change I’d run for the hills – the warm ones. Am I the only one dreading the cold?! I love fall, the crips mornings & cool days – I welcome them, in fact! I do really love me a great sweater though… siiiigh.

You walk into a store & see this killer outfit on a mannequin, I’m talking like the trendiest white top with the most perfect ruffled sleeve & awesome cropped, raw hem jeans – you’re drooling! You get the goods and go into your fitting room only to discover that the cropped jeans are almost full length and the top looks like it has extra fabric in all the wrong places… uuuuuugggggg!! Common misconception – anyone can walk into a store and buy the same, cool clothes. The truth – that is a freaking lie. Shopping for you in your entirety means buying clothes that only come to life when matched with your body, personality & life style! The crazy thing is that even if a range of body types can pull off a certain style not all of those bodies & their skin tones can sport the same color, and color is a major key element to any wardrobe.
I LOVE to share how women can determine the right fit for your body type, the emotions that drive our shopping habits and how to start building a wardrobe that compliments and empowers your everyday! If you need some help or know someone who does send them my way!

I was swooning over this sweet little corner at last nights dinner party! @cvbecker hosted & spoiled us with some of the tastiest fall foods & sincere conversation. I was reminded how necessary it is to be present & aware, to slow down & invest in the special moments but also the mundane. The warm & delicious food, the soft lighting, the laughing between two friends in a separate conversation, the earthy smell of the hand soap, the sacred & vulnerable emotions – there was so much to embrace. My family recently endured the tragic loss of my spirited aunt & one of the girls at last nights dinner is coming up on 6 months since losing her twin brother. It was a whirlwind of things appreciated & treasured; each one of us contributing significance & offering a safe place to let our hair down. Find rest in the place you’re in, wander through your wilderness of uncertainty with grace & hope, treasure the people close to you & remind yourself that the very breath you breath is a gift.

“Someone else’s opinion of me is none of my business.” @msrachelhollis Yes! I love this! Wether it’s other people or it’s is my own mind & self doubt – those opinions don’t matter and they most definitely don’t hold your truth! As much as we all say, “what they think doesn’t matter” it’s hard to whole heartedly embrace that as our truth… until we do! And then there’s all this crazy awesome freedom to keep moving forward, keep chasing the dream, keep showing up! There’s no other you in the whole world, no one who can offer what you have to give better than you! If people have their negative opinions (and they always will) remember that they belong to them, not you! Find your tribe, the ones who know you, stand by you, want to see you succeed and empower you to be the best freaking version of yourself possible!

A little client highlight! Transitional outfits are some of the most fun!! Mixing layers and using summer pieces with new fall pieces gives me life! I love it! This client has been wearing this skirt for the last 2 months with elevated tops for work and this is another way she can wear it dressed down a little bit but still keep the style on point! Check my website for styling services and shoot me an email so we can start getting your closet fall ready!
