Twillys are a fun way to customize and dress up your bags. So I wanted to share 8 ways to tie an Hermes Twilly on your bag handles to give you some inspiration. It's up to you if you want to tie a twilly on one or both handles of your bags. In my personal opinion, I think you either wrap a twilly around each handle or none at all. Having a twilly on your bag handles will protect the leather. Therefore, you will get inconsistent wear on your handles if they're not on both. But if you're just looking to get one twilly to decorate your bag with many of these ways to tie an Hermes twilly work great as any accessory to your bag. If you're not concerned about wear on your bag handles, I highly recommend giving these a try! And the beauty about these is you can always switch them up! They're super easy to do, and don't take much time, so on ... Read more...

Fire Wife Life: Making it Through the Fire Academy
Happy Friday! I am so excited as I have been anticipating this day for the last four months. Justin is graduating from his Fire Academy today and I am officially going to be a fire wife! This man that I am so fortunate enough to call my husband is the greatest man I know! When he sets his mind to something there is absolutely no stopping him. Not only did he make it through one of the toughest Fire Academy's but, he crushed it!! I seriously couldn't be more proud of him. I know this summer is going to be tough with it being wildfire ...

Post-Surgery Update on my Wrist
I realized that not everyone who visits my blog is following me on social media, and not everyone who follows me on Instagram or Facebook is visiting the blog. I feel like I've talked about my wrist so much lately but perhaps I haven't actually mentioned much about it here. I know I talk about my wrist a lot IRL (in real life) because well it effects my day-to-day and as it bothers me it's impossible to ignore it. To give you a little backstory, about a month before Mason was born I started experiencing pain in my right wrist. It ... Read more...
Top 20 One Piece Swimsuits
I know I've already shared this one piece swimsuit with you all but seriously I am just so in love with it! It has so many pretty details and really sucks my tummy in, which any mama will tell you is just an absolute dream. My tummy is one of the last things to get back into shape and while it's shrunk significantly down since giving birth to Mason almost 21 months later and it's still not the same as before. So today I've decided to share my top 20 one piece swimsuits with you all because you've spoken, and I've listened, that ... Read more...
Opening up About Mental Illness
Last week we lost two amazingly talented individuals, Kate Spade and Anthony Bourdain. Kate Spade was one of my favorite designers growing up and still is. Kate Spade was probably one of my first designer purchases. When I mentioned to Justin the other day after her death he first said "who is that?" and then followed it up by "oh is she the handbag designer?" I share this because it goes to show you that if my hubby could get it partly right then he's heard me talk about her enough to remember a little bit about her and the brand she ... Read more...
