Planning for "The Trip"

Planning/Packing 
Do you ever feel like planning for the trip/vacation takes more time than you are actually on vacation?
We have ventured into the world of "Glamping." I knew this was going to be a lot of work on my end- Let's be clear here...CAMPING is no means a Vacation for Mom- It IS a TRIP!
The two days prior to camping- 
Laundry for clothes to pack...
Cleaning the camper
Making the beds on the camper
Food shopping
Cooking/ Baking/Meal Prep
Packing for everyone!
Packing up the food on the camper
Packing up the equipment on the camper
Packing up the clothes/toiletries in the camper
Planning out the trip
Are you getting the idea here????
Family time is so important. The time we spend on the beach, going on adventures, trying new foods, making s'mores,  drinking rose', etc....is SO worth ALL of the preparations for the THREE days that we will be on this journey- However, the prep, not to mention the CLEAN UP when we get home is quite a work out & a reminder of why we ALL Need a Vacation at times.
Stay tuned for all of my camping attire- because let's face it...There is an outfit for EVERY occasion, even camping!

xox,

New Year Refresh

I t’s that time of year when the holidays are over our holiday Decor is put away, hopefully! Your home is clean & quiet & let’s face it- we’re stuck in the house right now due various reasons. So, it’s a great time to reevaluate and refresh. I find that if I don’t go through my things, refresh and get rid of things that I don’t need or use; think those fancy underwear that you bought that were so uncomfortable that you never wore them!  That being said- Let’s get rid of the clutter and keep the things that we feel our best in! If we learned anything in 2020 it was to live our best lives. I like to take the end of January/beginning of February as a time to go through my things. I start with the most important; my “intimates”… Meaning bras underwear pajamas and of course my robe! This week at Smooth Styling with Corinne we are going to explore all of these! We will talk about underwear/panties (I hate that word)... bras/bralettes/sports bras, pajamas- I will Share with you my fav

What's in My Closet...???

  I have been thinking deeply about how the "staples" of our wardrobes have changed in this past year; as most things have. It is always fun and absolutely necessary to add new trends and have fun with color, texture & pattern within our wardrobe; however, it is essential that we have a foundation for these exciting pieces to be a part of. Think of a new house- the fixtures; like the kitchen cabinets and the bathroom tile are so important as a way to show the homeowner's style & personality. However, you can't have those beautiful "add ons" without the foundation of the house in place.  The "staples" of your wardrobe are the foundation, just like the house, and the fixtures are "add ons," they add character, personality, spice! Wardrobe staples used to be boring-  Black slacks, a white button down shirt, a black shoe They have always slightly differed & evolved with the times- but 2020 definitely pushed us into a whole new wor

Making a list, checking it twice...

Do you have a holiday shopping list? Santa should not be the only one making a list & checking it twice!  Getting & staying  organized around the holidays is a skill all to its own. As we know most Moms have what we call"Holiday Anxiety." Don't get me wrong- I know you LOVE the holidays! The decorating as a family, baking together, visiting Santa, getting the Christmas tree & decorating, drinking hot chocolate together- the whole shebang... BUT we have A LOT to do & most of that "To Do" is behind the scenes. It is the prepping, the shopping, the wrapping, the organizing that the kids, & often others, do not see.  Well, I do not need one more thing to be stressed about. I want to enjoy my hot chocolate & be able to reorganize the ornaments on the Christmas tree in peace :) and I would be LOST without my Holiday Gift Spreadsheet. I am not a spreadsheet kind of girl on the daily. I will admit that lists are my jam & I could not live with
