I’m excited to share the first rooms in our new house that are just about ready for their debut! There are a few things left to do — like paint the walls and base boards and I still have a bit of work to do on the dining area but they were featured on Glitter […]

If you can’t tell I’m just a little bit excited about the rebrand of my site — in case you missed the news last week you can read all about how Style Within Reach is becoming THE MAMA NOTES in just a few short weeks! I’ve been on a long journey from debating about calling it […]

A few weeks ago I had the fun opportunity to head to NYC and attend Gerber’s media presentation. If you’ve been reading my site for a while you probably know that I try to make most of Piper’s food myself (especially when she was tiny) but there have certainly been times when I feed her […]

I’ve been waiting to share this exciting news for a while now… I’ve hinted about it on Instagram but for the past year I’ve been working on a rebrand for Style Within Reach. To be honest, it just doesn’t fit me or my lifestyle anymore. Sure, I love style and outfits but now my life […]

Target: Target never fails for last minute costumes and accessories (think: tails, ears etc.)  Tutu Du Monde: Hands down the prettiest, artistic bespoke halloween pieces (and every day dress up pieces) you’ll ever find!  H&M: A cute selection of accessories & costumes for kids!  Pottery Barn Kids: Surprising for a furniture & home good store […]

A few weeks ago Austin, Piper and I flew to Columbus to explore the city in collaboration with LIFE IN CBUS . We had been wanting to get away, just the three of us for a while and this was the perfect excuse! With our crazy schedules and house renovations it seems like we can never just enjoy […]

I’ve been testing out a bunch of drugstore beauty products the past few weeks and thought I’d share my favorites. Over the last few years I’ve definitely started to invest in more expensive beauty products but still love the thrill of a cheap beauty find that works.  L’Oreal True Match Lumi Cushion Foundation:  I was […]

Happy FALL! My very favorite season starts today and despite feeling overwhelmed with the end of wedding season upon us and a boatload of house projects I am DETERMINED to savor and enjoy every day this fall. Below is the list I made of things I’d actually like do. While I dream of hosting an […]

We have been pretty lucky in that Piper has slept pretty well since she was about a month old. Don’t get me wrong there have been plenty  of sleepless nights in our house but overall I don’t complain. I exclusively breastfed Piper until she was 13 months so this tip really only applies to those […]

Quickly have to share the most adorable dress that Taylor got for Piper — Elodie has the same one and it’s just too cute. I couldn’t believe it was from Target. I almost bought it in a size 2T for her to wear next year when I was shopping today but resisted. It’s a lightweight […]

This fall is on record to be my busiest yet — I try to never complain about being busy for work but now that I’m a mom it’s definietly easier to feel overwhelmed, stressed and straight up sad about not getting to spend as much time with Piper. I’ve been trying to make a few […]

If you follow me on Instagram Stories then you’ve probably seen the adorable things I’ve picked up for Piper from Target’s new Cat & Jack line. Since Piper is finally starting to fit in 12 month clothing my options have really widened and I can shop in the toddler section. Cat & Jack is an […]
