*photo: chia, acai & strawberry breakfast jar from the awesome green Morning, friends! It’s been an inspiring weekend to see more than a million women across the country march in solidarity.

Morning, y’all! We’re in recovery mode over here after hosting a 70th birthday party for my father-in-law at our house last night that last until the wee hours. Anyone else feel like it’s gonna be a coffee on repeat kind of day? Thankfully I rounded up some great reads from around the web earlier this week […]
Happy New Year! I’m currently viewing my mornings as a time to reboot from the indulgences of the holiday season.

My biggest hurdle came along with trying tofu for the first time, but I’m so glad I did and now can’t imagine my diet without it. Tofu excels in absorbing the flavors it’s cooked with, so with the right recipe and ingredients it’ll […]
Shop owner Wendi Koletar is a woman who inspires many adjectives: “She’s such a visionary,” “Wendi’s a total BOSS,” and “She has the best taste of anyone, ever,” are just a few of the descriptions I got when asking some of our mutual friends about the owner of style mecca Kick Pleat. With a gorgeous new 3,400-square foot […]
Alexandra Macon and Andee Olson met in 2010 while working at Vogue.com and became fast friends — after all they were both Southern girls living and working in New York City. Fast forward six years, and while the two no longer work together officially (Andee went on to become the Site Director for The Coveteur), last summer they reunited to launch a collaborative labor […]
