Thank you to Frances Valentine and Tuckernuck for sponsoring this post. Even though it’s officially 700 degrees here in Nashville, my family is spending a lot of time outside. As we ease back into entertaining in small groups, I think a lot of us are hosting outdoors for an extra measure of safety. With that [...]
Our Expert Q&A series continues with interior designer Minnette Jackson (Instagram: @MinnetteJacksonInteriors). Minnette is based in Houston but has strong Nashville ties: she went to Vanderbilt and started her design career in Music City (click here for a peek of her fabulous home in Belle Meade). She’s wonderfully talented and helped me with many spaces in our old house, including the dining and living room. Minnette’s interiors are all about classic [...]
Well, this pandemic is raging on and we’re spending more time at home than we ever thought possible. Luckily, Holly Trepka of Nashville’s NEAT Method is next in our Expert Q&A series (note that NEAT Method has locations all over the US and Canada). She’s a home organization genius and full of ideas for whipping [...]
We all know I don’t cook, so it makes sense that I have an arsenal of carryout options in heavy rotation. Lately I’ve relied on these even more than usual as we’ve been stuck at home, and I reached the end of my rope with dishes somewhere around April 1. Of course, I’m still Mrs. [...]
While a big BBQ isn’t possible this year, we can still celebrate Independence Day in style. With a pre-set color palette and naturally casual vibe, the 4th of July is the perfect opportunity for easy, intimate entertaining. As always, there’s no need to build a party from scratch. For this gathering, I relied heavily on [...]
One of the things we’ve missed most during quarantine is collaborating in-person with our favorite experts. Whether we’re styling an event, decorating a room, or sprucing up our wardrobe, two (or three or four!) heads are always better than one, and we’ve had the good fortune to work with many fabulous women whose creativity strengthens [...]
*Thank you Onward Reserve for sponsoring this post. As always, opinions and ideas are entirely my own * Father's Day is around the corner, and this year I want to show my husband and dad some extra love. Like every family, we've had to work hard together to adapt to all of the Covid-imposed changes in our [...]
Just like everything else right now, graduation parties and celebrations are going to look very different for most people this year due to the quarantines. This milestone is such an important event to celebrate, and it's frustrating and sad for many graduates and their families who cannot get together with everyone they might like to [...]
Listen, just because I'm living in pajamas all day, it doesn't mean I can't look fashionable. I just feel better spending day after day in my home in stylish pajamas. So, I've rounded up some of my favorite pink (though these all come in other colors and patterns) boujee pajamas from my favorite sleepwear brands. [...]
I don't know about y'all, but I've been taking my kids to eat outside every sunny day we get here in Nashville. With the quarantine still in full force, we all need a break and some fresh air around lunchtime. So, I've been packing up our lunch and walking with the kids to our neighborhood [...]
