Thank you so much for being here. I am so grateful for this community and as 2020 comes to a close, I am reflecting on all of my blessings (there are many!)
It has been been such a difficult year for my family, but I am continually reminded of the love and light that fills my life. Stay safe, stay well, and let us all look to brighter days in 2021!

Who doesn’t love a sweater you can curl up in, or ultra-soft sweat pants? During my college years, I worked the register at Gap in what was then, Gap Body. I restocked panties, lounge wear, and fitted women for bras. I saw some wild and crazy things over the years, but I learned a lot about styles and fabrics.
It was here that I was introduced to modal. Modal is a fabric made from Beech trees that’s blended with cotton. It is SO soft and it has been one of my great loves for many, many years. Every year I buy at least one pair of modal joggers from Gap’s Pure Body Collection. Once you go modal, you won’t go back! You seriously wont be disappointed. Gap also sells T-shirts in modal, as well as bras, and panties. It looks like Gap is currently sold out on a lot of their lounge/sleep wear, but they do have modal leggings on sale for $30.00.
Lou & Grey Sweatpants from Loft are also one of my must haves. They are cute and comfy, need I say more? I purchased their Signature Softblend Sweatpants for $69.50 in Deep Lavender and they are seriously SO very soft. Lou & Grey is another brand that I always turn to for quality and comfort. I’m a fan of Banana Republic’s basic linen t-shirts because they are available in petite sizes and they are great for a casual day in or out. If I’m out running errands, I’ll add a ball cap. The hat featured in the photo was a purchase I made in Madrid a few years ago and it’s distressed look works well for creating a relaxed look. A similar hat is the Canvas Dad Cap by Hat Attack. It’s wide brim gives it a casual feel that screams weekend vibes.
These Athleta Studio Joggers are great because they are a relaxed fit (we doesn’t like a good Aladdin pant?) and they are a great lounge pant to wear on the weekend or after a long day in a skirt and heels. They retail for $79.00. I’ve seen a lot of women use them while pregnant and as a postpartum pant. Pair them with a slider sandal, some oversized sunglasses, and you have a cute outfit made for brunching on a patio. Below, I paired the joggers with an oversized hooded sherpa sweater in white and the sweater makes the outfit oh so cozy!
Curl up with a book, work on a puzzle, or binge a good TV series (what are you watching during the pandemic? I am rewatching Downtown Abbey from the beginning – I still love sweet Matthew all these years later). Lounge in style and reach out with your questions & comments!
