LIVELY Active Review

You already know I’m obsessed with LIVELY bras and underwear, so when they launched an active line, I HAD to try it. As a fairly active gym rat and professional lounger, my sports bras need to work hard. Keep reading for my full LIVELY active review.

Budget Hallway Update

There is no shortage of projects that need to be done in our 100-year-old home, but due to things like getting married and debt spirals, I’m trying to focus on smaller, lower-cost updates. So, recently, I decided to give an often-used yet neglected area of our house: the upstairs hall. Here’s how I underwent a quick budget hallway update.

Urban Stead Cheese Cincinnati

This past weekend, I went down to Cincinnati to visit some friends. It also happened to be St. Patrick’s day, but that was really just a coincidence. So Saturday, we got into the typical Irish Shenanigans, Guinness all day, broken up with some delicious Gomez Turtles for some Mexican flair. Then Sunday, after a delicious breakfast at Tucker’s we made our way to East Walnut Hills’ newest attraction: Urban Stead Cheese. Ben and I have been fangirling over Urban Stead since it was announced they would be opening near his house in Walnut Hills, so this was a dream come true.

New Zealand Packing List: One week in March

Feeling like pros after consulting our weather app, we headed out to explore New Zealand dressed for a cool 65 degree day. Well let me tell you, we may have been dressed for what 65 degrees feels like at home, but we were sweltering. See my New Zealand packing list—with all extra warm weather items I forgot—to make sure you’re set for whatever weather is thrown at you.

Anyone else think it was Friday on Tuesday? Maybe it’s because it feels like spring should be here by now, or maybe it’s that we’ve been looking forward to St. Patrick’s Day, but it’s been a long week. Obsessing over some fun new things kept us going, though. Here’s what we’re loving in this week’s And Then We Tried Obsessions.

Denim Jacket Roundup: Plain and Embellished

Guys, I’m very sorry, but everything I told you in our Spring Fashion Wishlist was a lie. Well, except for the hair tint. I have a new must-have spring item that I can’t stop thinking about: an oversized denim jacket.

I’ve been skiing three times, so obviously I need a full ski wardrobe

I survived skiing this weekend! I went skiing for the third time in my life and managed to not die, so now I get to embark on the best part of any new hobby, shopping for all the gear. For this trip, I borrowed Hannah’s ski jacket, pants, gloves, goggles, socks, clothes, literally all of it, and now that I think I want to ski again, I should buy my own jacket. Bonus, if I don’t have to borrow Hannah’s jacket, that means she can also come skiing and we CAN BE SKI-FRIENDS. Amazing. Here’s everything I’m looking at for my new ski wardrobe, please chime in in the comments with your recommendations because I’m basing this all purely on aesthetics.
