Top WFH Tip:
Make your bed and get dressed each morning! Even if you change out of comfy clothes, into new comfy clothes, it's important to feel put together as it sets the tone for your day! My day is significantly better when I like my outfit, even if no one sees it but me!
Currently living in:
Our new Mama Sweatshirt! I love the tees too!
Currently Watching:
We just finished the new season of Ozark...so intense!

Creative Manager
Currently Watching:
Right now I’m loving Outlander and Mad Men! I guess, period dramas are my thing right now?
Currently Listening To:
I’ve loved listening to The ABeautifulMess Podcast! Their podcast is light in a season that can feel seriously heavy at times! Plus, the episodes are short and sweet.
Currently Reading:
I’ve usually got several books going at once. I just finished up The Upside of Being Down by Jen Gotch (who is the founder of lifestyle brand Ban.do). It was a quick and #relatable read that chronicles her mental health journey and touches on the subjects of being a female founder, relationships, and creativity!
What are you loving / living in right now?
I’m living in cute and comfy clothes - including joggers, pullovers, soft cardigans, and sneakers! My most recent #shopimpressions purchase was The Ansley Sneaker - a shoe that is comfy enough to wear around the house (instead of slippers all the time), but still makes me feel like I have on a complete outfit.
Top WFH tip:
My best tip for WFH is to try to stick to a routine and to set-up a dedicated space for work. The first few days I didn’t have a real “work space,” but afterwards I set-up a cute little corner in our guest room and it has worked out 100x better for productivity and focus! It allows for work/life separation and it helps if it's a space you feel inspired to be in!

Top WFH tip:
My best tip for working from home is to find time to step away from the desk or couch or wherever your home office space is! Take a walk to your mailbox or clean out your car or organize something. These random tasks help my mind refocus and take a break!
Currently loving:
All of our new comfy jumpsuits and rompers! We have them in so many styles, and I want them all. The perfect outfit to feel put together but still comfy for while I’m working from home.
