Once the chill hits the hair, I am renown for doning hats. In fact, my array of headwear might rival some ladie’s shoe closets. Being outside more than inside in the winter (I mean, have you walked outside in NYC lately?) means you need something to keep cool and LOOK cool. Apparently, this season it is something we used to refer to on the farm as tossle caps. But of… Keep Reading
Obviously in Pittsburgh we’ve been fans since the first pigskin was thrown. Even as babies, we are cloaked in the terrible towel upon birth to mark our right of passage into this legacy. But for years, even with tons of huge female fans, the clothing selection wasn’t quite as vast as our football stats knowledge. Back in the day, instead of oversized jerseys (or buying kids’ sizes – yes- even… Keep Reading
Oh the life of a journalist/editor/socialite/mom. It’s hard living the lives we do (literally I am writing this before I jump in the car to drive seven hours to Pittsburgh!) but it’s all about the journey not the destination, right? I may live in NYC, but I travel for work (and pleasure) at least twice a month if not more sometimes, and life on the road can be tiresome,… Keep Reading
I received complimentary product from Orvis for this review. As you age, your tastes in things change. You go from hating broccoli at age 5 to all you steam and eat at 35. You go from staying out all night and eating Katz pastrami at 5am to waking up at 6:45 on a Saturday am to go for a 10-mile run. That’s the joy of change. You can. I have… Keep Reading
NYC. The city of dreams, bums and lots of concrete. It may always look appealing to the outsider (trust me, it’s still appealing to the millions of us who live here or we wouldn’t be paying what we pay), but I always try to point out the realism. We’re not rushing off to beautiful art gallery openings in Louboutins every single day. Nor are we taking horse and carriage rides… Keep Reading
I am a boy mom. And happy about that for many reasons. Because girls can be hard. Especially when it comes to clothes. I know this because I once was one. Thankfully in age of technology and online shopping, there are more options than my Levi’s at Sears. Meet kidpik – a subscription-based monthly box of clothes shipped right to your door, and custom curated based on your tastes. For… Keep Reading
I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Carter’s. I received a complimentary gift card to facilitate my review and thank me for my participation. Get this look, here. Maximo still doesn’t start school for the first time for two more weeks and I’m already over it. No wonder moms start prepping middle of summer because it’s a LOT of work – or is it really?… Keep Reading
Baby products might update and change faster than technology – and since I have preggo and new moms out there – it’s necessary to pass along all the new goodies I come across – cause everything I had just three years ago with Max is totally outdated already. (AND NO- I’m not one of the pregnant ones since I know you’re wondering). t’s just part of my job – being… Keep Reading
Yes, we have a lot on our plates as moms, but there are ways that we can be happier—and not so stressed. From toning down the yelling (c’mon, you know you do it!) to shrugging off the mom guilt, follow my ten steps and prepare to smile more. 1. Say no We have to start learning to say no more. Remember that Jim Carrey movie where he said yes to… Keep Reading
I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for Carter’s. I received a complimentary gift card to facilitate my review and thank me for my participation. Spring is FINALLY making an appearance, and for us city moms, that means we can FINALLY let the kids play outdoors again. The grass and trees may not be popping with color yet, but that doesn’t mean your child’s wardrobe can’t!… Keep Reading
