Are You Fjord Real?! | Feel Good Friday 082418

norway collage

Travel. I am grateful I get to travel! Norway was beautiful, soul-searching, painful, and I’m deeply in love with it (sounds a bit like love eh?). Copenhagen was quick and charming. More on both to come soon. And now I’m off to the Circling Festival and Amsterdam… wish me luck! Follow my adventures on ig…

I Think I’ll Just Wear Athleta

I have a pinterest board titled similarly, but it turns out most of my wardrobe of late has been athleta—and I’m not talking athletic clothes, because those are primarily other brands.

I miss you,

*Except, ok, enough with the blue bell obsession. **Except, wait, I’ve lived away from the great state for 8 years and never realized … slime in the ice machine is a Texas thing?!

For When You Don’t | Feel Good Friday 050418

After an exhausting stint that involved 5 days in an RV in the desert at Stagecoach straight into a three-day west to east coast business trip, I got back last night completely drained—and with drainage in my throat. I try so hard to keep myself from getting sick by being cognizant of my fatigue, both…

“Travels with Just a Shoulder Bag”

Just before my last-minute ski trip last weekend, I read this article about how Athleta’s CMO travels with only a shoulder bag. Um, yes. So inspired, for my Friday night-Monday morning trip I packed only my ski bag and a shoulder bag. The shoulder bag*, similar to this Sak shopper (just a different pattern), held:…
