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

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.

As a mom, I completely understand that makeup may not be a top priority for many moms. Sometimes a daily makeup routine just gets lost in the chaos of motherhood. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Makeup is not as complicated as it seems. Sometimes all it takes is an extra 5 minutes and you can have a fresh face that will help you feel good about yourself and help you feel a little more put together.Read more

No Buy New November Challenge

November 1, 2020 by Katie Haller

A challenge to help you spend less money

I shared last week over on Instagram that I want to do a challenge for the month of November. For the entire month of November, I am not going to buy anything new for myself. This includes; Clothes, shoes, and accessories. Because I love to shop and I feel like it would be too difficult for me to completely cut myself off from shopping, I am going to allow myself to shop at only second-hand stores in November. I’m going to use the hashtag #nobuynewnovember when I share my outfits on Instagram and I’d love it if you would join me!

How I Make Money Blogging as a Hobby

October 26, 2020 by Katie Haller

I often get asked if I make money from my blog. The answer is yes! I do make money from blogging. Do I make a lot of money from blogging? No! I don’t make anywhere near enough money to consider it an a full-time or even part-time income, but I’m okay with that. The truth is, I never set out to make money from blogging so the little bit of money that I do make from it is just an added bonus. I’m not an expert on making money from blogging because it’s something that is still so new to me. There are so many different ways that bloggers make money and I don’t feel comfortable writing a “how to make money” blog post on the topic. If you want to learn exactly how you can monetize your blog there are a million blog posts out there written about affiliate marketing, sponsored posts, ads, and however else bloggers make money. Just google it! I do want to share my story of how I started a blog as a hobby and turned it into a fun way to make a little extra bonus money on the side.
