Baby Update

Anna turned 6 months yesterday!  I can’t believe that we are at the halfway point of her first year.  The biggest thing I learned with my first baby is that you really need to enjoy the first year and soak it all in because it flies by.  Read more

Christmas Party Outfit Ideas

December 10, 2020 by Katie Haller

Christmas party outfit ideas #christmasoutfit
 I have such mixed emotions about Christmas this year.  Part of me is so excited to celebrate with my little family.  It’s Anna’s first Christmas and Jack is super excited for Santa this year.  I’m trying to create new memories and traditions for our family and I’m really excited about it, but then there is also a part of me that is very sad about Christmas this year.  We usually spend the entire week of Christmas with our families and this year, because of the pandemic, we will be staying home.  I know we will FaceTime with everyone and make the best of the holiday the same way we have all year long, but it’s just not the same.  There are no parties, no family get-togethers, no meetups with friends, and no events worth dressing up for this Christmas.  But that does not mean that I can’t put together a Christmas party outfit idea post, right?  I still have a closet full of clothes just waiting to be worn.  Besides, you can always pin these outfit ideas to your Pinterest boards for next year.Read more

If you would have asked me 10 years ago if I would ever wear “mom jeans” I would have laughed and said no way!  I always remember seeing the mom jeans SNL skit and laughing thinking how ridiculous my mom looked back in the ’90s wearing high-waisted mom jeans.  Well, here I am at 36 wearing mom jeans and absolutely loving them.Read more

Baby Update- 5 Months

November 16, 2020 by Katie Haller

Baby 5 month update #babyupdate #5months

 Baby Update

Anna is 5 months and I can’t believe how quickly this year is flying by.  Anna continues to be the light of my 2020.  This month Anna has lived through her first Halloween and her first Presidential election.  Both events she didn’t seem to notice very much.  She’s such a happy little baby.  She is completely clueless about any of the drama that surrounds this year.  She’s just in her happy little baby world and I love it.

How to Style Black Jeans

November 10, 2020 by Katie Haller

How to style black jeans #blackjeans
I’ve always loved having a good pair of black jeans to have in my closet.  They are so easy to dress up, yet they are still casual because they are denim, not dress pant material.  They are an important fall and winter wardrobe staple for me.
