Weekend Notes
Morning, y’all! We’re in Houston this weekend to celebrate Chanel’s engagement — we haven’t talked too much about it here on the blog quite yet, but I did post a hint at the fabulousness that is to come when she ties the knot this fall, so stay tuned for more on that. Even though it’s a quick […]
Swimsuit Selfies: Yea or Nay?
I read an article once in “The Age Issue” of Vogue featuring a very stylish over-sixty living in New York. When asked what fashion advice she would give a woman in her early twenties, she didn’t miss a beat: “Put on a bikini and don’t take it off until you’re 35.” The cold hard truth […]
What Happened When I Went Vegan for Three Days
Confession: this Nebraska girl has had a longtime curiosity about adopting a vegan lifestyle. I might lose some followers for saying that – especially those from the Heartland. Nebraskans are wildly proud of their beef. And it’s true, visit any steakhouse in the state and you’re likely to have one of the best steaks of […]
Getting Dressed With Emma Heming Willis
I love that our new Getting Dressed With series provides the chance to peek into the lives of some incredibly chic women and answer such burning questions as, “What does a typical morning look like for an international supermodel-turned-blogger who also happens to be married to Bruce Willis?” That, my friends, is what we find out today as we peek […]
We Got Bikes!
Adam and I have been wanting to get bikes for ages — we’ve rented them on vacation and ridden from Venice Beach to Malibu and to see volcanic rock in Maui, and it always makes for one of the most memorable part of a trip. So we finally took the plunge and ordered two classic cruisers from […]
9 Ways to Use a Yoga Block
One of my favorite yoga classes in town is a prop-based class, which means that along with our mat, we come to the studio armed with blocks, blankets, straps and bolsters. Using those props, we’re able to get into deeper versions of the poses we usually flow in and out of quickly, and as it […]
Weekend Notes
Mornin’, friends! Hope you’re having a great weekend so far. Life has been speeding by so quickly lately in such a blur of busyness that I’ve been making an effort on the weekends to slow it all down a little. Which means that I’m intentionally leaving blocks of our time unscheduled to make room for things like laying […]
Cruise Control: How to Get Along While Traveling
We’ve all been there — bickering in the back seat of a cab on a trip that should have been fun. Traveling can be stressful, and nothing can test the mettle of a relationship quite like a series of delayed flights. Even when things are functioning smoothly at home, nothing is guaranteed out there on […]
How to Perfect the Push-Up
Marnie, owner of Mod Fitness, says that if you could only do two exercises for the rest of your life, they should be plank holds and push-ups — two moves that work your entire body, and that make an appearance in every single Mod class. Of course, when it comes to push-ups, most of us have […]
Weekend Notes
Happy Easter, friends! It’s been a sunny, lovely weekend so far with egg hunts, neighborhood bike rides, and dinner out with friends. This morning we’re making waffles and laying low before a family celebration later this evening. I’ve got a busy few days of work ahead, so I’m trying hard to mostly unplug and savor the weekend […]
Are you on a media junk diet?
*photo by Alice Gao They say if you want a quick overview of a person’s intelligence, interests, and background, just take a look at their bookshelf (or even better, their Netflix queue). Around our house these days you’d find a mix of favorite paperbacks like Just Kids and A Moveable Feast alongside hardback copies of […]
8 Yoga Moves That Improve Balance
When we think about setting “yoga goals” for ourselves, they often revolve around achieving certain poses — arm balances, inversions, you know the “fancy” ones. But how many of us strive to totally nail tree pose? Or hold a side plank for 10 breaths? My guess: not many. A lot of the yoga instructors I know would […]
