I was beginning to wonder if it would ever warm up around here, but I think it’s finally safe to say summer is on its way! We’ve had some gorgeous weather this week that has me itching to refresh my outdoor space, and I just fell down the rabbit hole that is Zulily’s Outdoor Living and Garden Shop.

It's been a while since I've shared What I Wore Lately! These pictures span the past three weeks or so, and our weather has warmed up here in Philly so I'm finally getting to wear some of my spring clothes.

This time of year, I get so many questions about shorts! Shorts can go really wrong when they don’t fit well, so I wrote a post with some dos and don’ts for wearing shorts over 40… or at any age, really.

With a new season, I like to refresh my beauty routine -- try some new things and rediscover old favorites. Amazon has a really good selection of beauty products, and most are available with Prime, so I thought I'd round up my favorites for you today.

Well, good morning! A lot has changed in the past week. Paul brought our daughter home from college on Monday, and I had my first post-surgical follow-up on Tuesday. I'm doing a lot better than I was last weekend; I even drove into Philly yesterday to see a show!

One of my favorite things about spring and summer is outdoor dining. If we're going out to eat when the weather is warm, and outdoor dining is an option, I'll usually take it! But it can be hot if you're sitting in the sun, so I often wear shorts and dress them up with accessories. 

My husband and I are huge fans of live music, especially in the spring and summer when events can be held outside, and I always get a lot of questions this time of year about what to wear to an outdoor concert.

I’ve been teasing this powder room makeover post for so long, you all probably gave up on me. We started this design process back in February of 2020… and we all know what happened after that! So yes, two years later, and I finally have my powder room finished!

I just discovered that my favorite white t-shirt, which I thought had been discontinued, is now back and fully stocked!!! It pairs perfectly with light wash denim and cognac sandals. This outfit does add up, so I also found some more budget-friendly options.

I personally love wearing shorts, but they aren't always appropriate for the occasion, and I totally understand that not every woman feels comfortable baring so much leg. Fortunately, there are lots of great casual alternatives to shorts!

Good morning and Happy Mother's Day! I wasn't planning to post today, but I'm feeling really good this morning, and I'm just milling around here at home so I thought I'd go ahead and give you all an update. 

I get asked all the time about outfit advice for Disney World and other theme parks, so I'm sharing this spring/summer theme park outfit from when I was in Florida last month.
