Obseeessed with the color combo of these Nikes! They couldn’t be more perfect for Valentine’s Day. Love the pretty pink detail on the back. They run a 1/2 size small, so I sized up to an 8.5.

DETAILS: RED FLEECE (SIZE M)| HEART SPORTS BRA (SIZE M/L) | HEART LEGGINGS (SIZE XS/S)| RED SNEAKERS (SIZED UP 1/2 SIZE)

DETAILS: PINK SHACKET (SIZE L) | WHITE RIBBED SPORTS BRA (SIZE M)| WHITE RIBBED SHORTS (SIZE S) | PINK BASEBALL HAT

This baseball hat is probably one of my favorite Valentine’s finds ever. It’s the perfect shade of pink and love the red embroidered graphic. It’s a little accessory that works for the rest of the year too. Also love the color of this pink shacket! It comes in multiple colors. I layered it over this cute ribbed set for a sporty, loungewear look from Nordstrom. Also loooved these socks with the look. So cute with mini Ugg boots or white high tops.

DETAILS: CHECKERED JACKET (SIZE S)| WHITE CROPPED TANK | NIKE SWEATS (SIZE S) | STRIPED SOCKS | UGG BOOTS | GUCCI HEART NECKLACE

I’ve been eyeing the checkered trend for a while and when I found this fleece, I knew it was the one haha. It’s soooo soft and cozy. Love it with these Nike sweats and mini UGG boots for a head to toe cozy, look. Just add on any cute pink or red accessories to add a subtle Valentine’s-vibe.

Obsessed with cut-out and sweater sets this season 🤩!

DETAILS: CUT-OUT SWEATER (WEARING SIZE SMALL – DRESS VERSION HERE) | DENIM (WEARING SIZE 0) | WHITE SHOULDER BAG | WHITE CROC BOOTIES

Cozy knits and sweaters are a winter classic, but this season I’m loving the twist on the classic cold shoulder sweaters. I am obsessed with all the cut-outs and two piece sets – they are an instant way to take your winter looks from ‘simple’ to ‘special’ and so easy to dress up. I paired mine with some cute 90s denim for a more casual vibe or you can layer over a satin slip dress and embellished heels for a dressier, date night look.

Linking a few more cut-out sweaters I’m loving below with different pieces to style them up or down. Also how pretty is the neckline on this dress version of my sweater? Saks is having a sale right now – you can earn up to $700 in a Saks Gift Card with code: DEC21SF (ends tomorrow!) so I included some of my favorites at various price points if you’re looking for some gift ideas for her (or need to drop some hints for your own wish list 😉).

My favorite, most comfortable sneakers! So comfortable and they are 25% off right now.

DETAILS: WHITE ADIDAS SNEAKERS (25% OFF!) BLACK BOUCLE SWEATER | QUILTED NORTH FACE VEST (ALSO LOVE THIS ONE) | NORTH FACE BELT BAG | BLACK LEGGINGS | NIKE SOCKS | SUNGLASSES (NORDSTROM IN-STORE) | SCRUNCHIE (SIMILAR HERE)

I’ve had these sneakers for years and they are hands down the most comfortable sneakers I own. They are a running shoe so I’m sure that has something to do with it haha but I love wearing them out and about for running errands in a sportswear look or going to the gym. They are also 25% off right now in all colors! Amazing quality and hold up really well – you will love. Also linking these leggings again that I bought earlier this year and are still one of my faves – the fabric is amazing and has a super sculpted fit. Makes you feel amazing whenever you wear them and the reviews are through the roof.

I’m also all over anything North Face right now. To be fair you kind of can’t not love North Face if you grew up in Montana and now live in Utah because winter just isn’t the same without them. I was obsessed in high school especially and a North Face coat was one of the first big things I saved up for. I’m loving that quilted vests are coming back in because they are such an easy layer to throw on and go. Also obsessed with all the cute throwback styles North Face has been adding lately – also have this one and love the cropped fit of this one. Classic, must-own winter sportswear brand!

So obsessed with this bag!

DETAILS: PLAID DRESS (WEARING SIZE S) | BROWN CROC BOOTS | PLAID COAT (WEARING SIZE 6) | BOUCLE YSL BAG

If the only place you’re showing up in sherpa, faux fur, and shearling is your outerwear game, you are missing out on the best winter trend for 2021/2022. With the cozy textures taking over from head (like this sherpa baseball hat!) to toe (give me all the shearling-trimmed boots), there’s no excuse for sticking to the same simple materials we’ve seen season in and out. Even the smallest details can go a long way and it’s a great way to transition other pieces to feeling more season-appropriate. I got this boucle bag (last seen here) and this teddy bag (last seen here) both from Saks this season and they have been some of my favorite bags going into winter 2021/2022.

Sharing more of my favorites from Saks right now, including some of my favorite textured finds, outerwear, and some of my favorite luxe beauty products right now below:

1. FAUX FUR WRAP COAT
2. PLUMPING LIP GLOSS (FAVE! I WEAR SHADE 001)
3. QUILTED SHEARLING YSL CROSSBODY

6. SHEARLING TRIMMED YSL CROSSBODY

Guuuuyyyyys this bag is so amazing in person! It’s by Sezane, a french brand I just recently discovered. It looks like a $1k+ bag – such amazing quality!

DETAILS: BLACK SWEATER | WHITE BUTTON UP BLOUSE | LEOPARD PRINT TROUSERS | FAUX FUR COAT | BLACK WESTERN BOOTS | BLACK LEATHER TOTE | LEATHER BELT

I recently discovered the French brand Sezane and am so in love with all their stuff. It’s gorgeous online but once you see it in person, it’s even better. The quality is sooooo good! Every piece feels super high-end. My favorite is probably this leather bag, but I love it all. I had to look up the price again after I got it because I couldn’t believe it was so affordable. It honestly feels like a high-end designer purse. Love how spacious it is too! Great travel bag (when we start traveling again haha), especially with kids when you start to accumulate all their toys.

Linking everything below! Have you guys heard of them before? They are huge in Europe apparently, I’m just late to the game haha.

Obsessed with the details on these sunglasses! Such a statement accessory!

DETAILS: VERSACE RECTANGULAR SUNGLASSES

No matter what you spend on your wardrobe, there are three pieces that can always elevate your look – shoes, handbags, and sunglasses. These are the things I invest in the most. The timeless pieces that will last for years. They make any outfit seem more high-end but also can make anyone feel more chic and put together. (Also just throwing this out there – between a good pair of sunglasses and a cute face mask, you’re pretty much guaranteed to look put together even when you’re not haha.)  Sunglasses especially are my most-worn accessory year-round. Utah’s at a higher elevation so the sun is just as blinding in the winter as the summer (and it sometimes even worse when it’s reflecting off the snow). So I’ve learned to invest in high-quality sunglasses I love. Even if they are a splurge at first, I usually end up wearing them a ton so it comes out to a lower cost per wear than with other pieces I might only wear a handful of times.

This pair of rectangular Versace sunglasses available at Nordstrom is so beautiful and I am obsessed with the detail on the temple. Also, the size is perfect – a little oversized but not over the top. Sunglasses are super versatile but that doesn’t mean they don’t affect your look. These have that classic silhouette and feel like a glamorous nod to the vintage, Hollywood movie stars. Love them dressed up with a pretty full-sleeved top but they also add that cool feeling to an edgier look like a shoulder pad tee and faux leather pants. Also got this pair – so good!

Linking to a few more of my favorite Versace sunglass frames available at Nordstrom:

Obsessed with this coat! When you order it right now (or for any order over $150) you can get $100 towards a future purchase. Such a good sale!

DETAILS: LONG SHERPA COAT (ALSO LOVE THIS ONE) | JEANS (UNDER $100) | SHORT UGG BOOTS | BEANIE

OLLIE: SHERPA COAT (SIMILAR HERE) | ZIPPED ONESIE | UGG BOOTS

When I saw this cute little sherpa baby coat it triggered a memory of me and Beckam in matching sherpa and UGG boots (posting below) so I wanted to recreate it with Ollie! UGG boots were one of my first big purchases when I was in high school – I was so proud of them haha! They are still a staple today – my kids all have a pair and love them too. I just got this short version after seeing them style with more relaxed jeans or joggers and sweats. Since they are a little shorter there’s less bunching so you can style them with more than just your favorite leggings. Finding matching mama and boy clothes is sometimes then girl clothes – but sherpa and uggs is an easy universal way to coordinate.

Also right now at Free People you can get $100 towards a future order when you spend $150. They have so many amazing coats and outerwear right now! I think it ends this weekend so definitely order while you can! Such a good sale!!

Here’s the throwback it reminded me of. It’s hard to remember Beckam ever being this little!

Below are some more pieces I’m obsessed with at Free People – perfect chance to pull the trigger on some of these and get $100 to spend on future purchases.

Mara and I got these matching puffer coats – they have a sherpa-lining and are super cozy. Love the zipper detail! They also come in a pretty bright red and navy and are usually $200+ but on sale right now for $60 at Zulily.

You guys know Zulily is one of my main partners this season and I’m even blown away by all the different product they have. They run flash deals for a limited time with huge brands – UGG, Free People, etc. They also have some big brands that they have consistently like Levi’s, Lego, Melissa and Doug. I’ll share some of my favorites further down, but their prices are so affordable. (They have a ‘Best Price Promise’ on some of their prices basically promising you won’t find it at any other retailer else for less. So a lot of toys are even cheaper than amazon!)

Levi’s is a go to family brand. I love this trucker jacket (Cody has one almost identical) and this sherpa bomber – both are 60% off right now! Their tees are also under $10. That’s like 30% cheaper than I’ve seen at any other retailer sites or sales. It’s the perfect way to stock up on some good graphic tees for you, your S/O, or your kids and it’s a great brand you know they’ll love to wear.

DETAILS: 1. AIRPLANE LEGO SET (20% OFF) | 2. STAR WARS LEGO SET | 3. NINJAGO LEGO SET (20% OFF) | 4. WATER PARK LEGO SET

Zulily also has lots of LEGO sets. My kids are all obsessed with LEGO sets and I love that it’s an activity they can work on together. I get them a LEGO set every year for Christmas and love these! Tons of options and a bunch of them are on sale (this plane set and this Ninjago set are 20% off right now).

Also wanted to note that anything with a Rocket Ship icon means quick shipping and any items with the red ‘present’ icon is guaranteed delivery before Christmas. I’ll be sharing more of my finds throughout the next few weeks so if you’re looking or anything specific, comment below and I’ll see what I can find!

DETAILS: FAUX FUR COAT | BLACK TURTLENECK | DENIM | CROSSBODY WALLET | BOOTS

You can make any pair of jeans holiday-ready, just throw on a turtleneck, berry lip, and a luxe coat for a cozy chic outfit. This coat is amazing and comes in two colors and such a good price point.

DETAILS: PLAID COAT | SWEATER DRESS (ON SALE UNDER $30)| HEELED BOOTIES | SOCKS

If you like to dress up but keep comfy, think cozy knit sweater dresses. Not only does it bring a special occasion vibe, it’s also beyond comfortable (not to mention forgiving). Love the full sleeves on this one and it’s on sale right now under $30 right now and comes in 5 colors. Also love adding some scrunched socks with your fall dresses for a more relaxed feel – these have been my go-to lately.

DETAILS: RIBBED SWEATER | WIDE-LEG TROUSERS (ON SALE UNDER $30) | DENIM SHERPA JACKET (UNDER $100)| VANS SNEAKERS | CROSSBODY WALLET | BERET

Practical makes perfect with these wide-leg trousers and there’s no better time than Thanksgiving dinner to play with oversized silhouettes. These are so comfy for every day but you’ll appreciate them even more when you’re reaching for that second piece of pie haha. Love this sherpa denim jacket for a casual, cozy layer.

DETAILS: BLUE SWEATER | BLUE JOGGERS | SNEAKERS | PLAID BLANKET SCARF

For my loungewear lovers out there, if you’re planning on a sweats look this year kick it up a notch with a monochromatic matching set. These joggers are super soft (come in multiple colors) and love the sleeves on this coordinating sweater!

When in doubt, you can never get it wrong with a pretty sweater and jeans. This tunic sweater is so good in person and on sale under $30 (also comes in 7 colors).  You guys know how much I love these heeled sherpa boots and a great way to dress up your denim. Also this teddy coat is one of my most worn so far this season.

Obsessed with the tortoise button detail on this henley. I’ve been wearing mine on repeat with everything from jeans to trousers to jogger pants. It comes in 3 colors and is so comfy!

DETAILS: RIBBED HENLEY | CREAM WIDE LEG TROUSERS

A couple months ago I discovered Verishop and they have quickly become one of my go to retailers because they do FREE overnight shipping! Am I the only one who the second they see something online they want it on their doorstep the next day. They carry everything from women’s to menswear, kids clothes, beauty and wellness (just ordered the Vitamin C and cleanser from this line to try), and even home decor! I love the vibe of their store, timeless classics. It feels like a curation of all of my favorite things I just hadn’t been introduced to yet. They have some brands that I’ve worn and loved forever, like Free People, Vince, etc., but then also some of the more unique brands you have to hunt for. One of the denim brands, Trave, I found on there and it is now one of my go to denim brands. They are super comfortable. Do you remember these cute cream jeans from this pic? 

Last week I went on a pants spree – there were so many new styles I have been excited to try now that I don’t have a baby bump! Below are three pant trends I’m loving and direct links to all the pants from my latest haul.

1. The Leather Look:

(1. VINYL LEGGINGS | 2. BLACK COATED FLARE DENIM)

Although I’ve always loved faux leather leggings, I love that they  incorporating the leather look into trousers now! It is such an interesting piece to add to an outfit, and easy to dress up with a pretty blouse and heels, or dress down with a tee and white sneakers. How good is this pair of coated, cropped, flared pants? It’s like all of my favorites in one piece!

2. Cropped + Flared:

(1. CREAM FLARES | 2.  BLACK CROPPED FLARES | 3. WHITE CROPPED FLARES)

I also ordered multiple pairs of flared denim and love! After years of boyfriend/skinny jeans, I love the fresh feel of cropped flared denim coming back!

3. Tailored Trousers:

(1.BLACK WIDE LEG TROUSERS | 2. CREAM WIDE LEG TROUSERS | 3. TAN WIDE LEG CARGO TROUSERS)

I fell so hard for these trousers that I got them in both black and cream. Such a flattering cut and I love the belt detail. (They are both on sale right now too, so they are a great price, especially for a pair that looks so high end!) Also love these camel colored trousers and they are even more beautiful in person!

DETAILS: BALLOON SLEEVE SWEATER | BLACK WIDE LEG TROUSERS

These are two brands I just discovered and love from Verishop, Lett and Billie. I’ve been hunting for a good voluminous sleeve for my winter wardrobe – they make such a pretty but simple statement. I love this one – it’s really soft and also has shoulder pads to keep the shape of the sleeve. (On sale under $100 right now!) I also got this balloon sleeve sweater and it’s such a pretty color!

Below are a few more Verishop pieces that are next on my list:

How amazing are these boots?!  They are 40% off now and would make such a great gift!

Holiday traditions are always so much better with him ❤️

DETAILS:  SWEATER (40% off!) | PANTS (40% off!) | BOOTS (40% off!) | CODY’S SWEATER (40% off!)

It’s the most wonderful time of the year!!  There are so many holiday traditions that I love doing with my family this time of year.

A few of my very favorites are:

• Doing the Elf on the Shelf with the kiddos (if I can keep track of and find that dang elf each year!! haha) The kids look forward to this one so much — so just to warn you, once you do it one year…you have to do it every year!  Even though I always run out of ideas, its worth seeing the look on the kids faces each morning when they find the elf! If you need help with ideas like me – there are so many cute ideas of what to do with the elf online, and the Elf also comes with a book with tons of good ideas too!
• The 12 days of Christmas!  This started yesterday and its something I have been doing since I was little with my parents.  They would surprise me each morning with something new (socks, candy, etc) and each morning I would sing the 12 days of Christmas song with them counting down every day until Christmas. It was so much fun that I do this with the kids now too!
• I grew up in Montana and went to cut down our Christmas tree with my family each year and its one of my best holiday memories. The smell of a fresh tree reminds me so much of home at the holidays now that I had to get a fresh tree this year too!  Its another fun holiday tradition that I want to continue with the kids as they grow.

What are some of your favorite holiday traditions?! I would love to hear!  Hope you all have a great weekend!

Amazon has always been my go-to place for holiday shopping! Especially for the kids, but now more than ever I have been loving it for clothes and accessories too.  You seriously can’t beat the two day Prime shipping….and can you believe all of these items are under $30?!?! They are all such great gifts for a girlfriend, mom, mother in law….or even if you’re just wanting to treat yourself 😉

I had to order some of the items for myself because they are just such good basics and it helps with picking sizing for my friends and family.

This grey sweater is a must have. (And under $25!!!) I would wear it when out and about with jeans or with a pair of black leggings and boots or tennis shoes. (This one only comes in one size but it fits like a medium I would say!)

This white turtleneck is such a great basic! (Under $15!) I love it alone tucked into my jeans and think it makes such a polished look. Its so versatile I love it under the deep V-Neck sweater and the gray sweater below too! (I’m wearing a size small) Loving these boots too – not under the $30 but still a really good deal!

The model online wore this sweater alone, but I think its such a cute and more styled look with the turtleneck underneath 🙂  (Wearing a size Medium in the grey sweater and small in turtleneck)

I love mixing and matching my basics to create a bunch of different looks, and this sweater and turtleneck are so cute together!

Which look is your favorite?  Who are you shopping for for the holidays? Let me know who else you might need inspiration for! Hope you are getting your shopping done early this year too!  There are so many good deals on Amazon 🙂 #founditonamazon

Running errands around town is so magical during the holidays!

This hat is one of my new favorites and its 30% off right now!

The button detail on these velvet pants is 😍 (and they’re 40% off! right now!)

DETAILS: Turtleneck | Coat (40% off!) | Velvet Pants (40% off!) | Hat (30% off!) | Shoes (30% off!)

Well…it’s officially COLD here in Utah!!  All the pretty leaves and colors I have been raving about for months now are gone and it’s just plain cold…but I can’t complain!! I seriously love bundling up in the cold and doing all of the holiday activities with the family. Even basic errands are more fun because downtown is officially decorated so pretty – so many trees and beautiful lights everywhere. It’s all so magical!

Coats are always one of my very favorite things to buy. I swear you can never have too many! I am obsessed with this new green coat from Saks because its two coats in one. It can be worn without the longer part when its not quite as cold out, and add the longer part over it when it’s freezing! I love the look of both!  For running errands with the family I paired my new coat with easy all black basics. You’ve seen me wear this turtleneck many times before – it’s such a great staple to have in your closet and easy to layer with everything!  Loving these new velvet black skinnies and of course the pop of leopard in my shoes and hat. You could easily swap out the heels for a pair of booties for a more casual look – I recently got these and love them!

Saks Fifth Avenue is currently having one of their best sales of the season – up to 40% off designer items!  So if you love any of the items I am wearing here or need to stock on more winter staples, the sale is ending soon so now is such a good time to do it!

Are you guys stocking up on winter staples where you live – what’s your weather like?

This coat is something you have seen me wear on repeat and definitely one of my most popular pieces that you guys have loved!  I can’t believe it’s 40% off right now, making it under $75!!! This is the best deal – it comes in 4 colors so if you’re looking for a new coat I can’t recommend this one enough!

This long cardigan is another one of my favorites that I wear a lot and always get asked where it’s from. Its seriously so cozy and comes in 6 colors.  Now that it’s 40% off I am going to order another color!

DETAILS: 1 – Coat | 2 – Bootie | 3 – Jeans | 4 – Slippers | 5 – Sunglasses | 6 – Dress | 7 – Candle | 8 – Men’s Sweater | 9 – Men’s Jeans | 10 – Scarf | 11 – Skirt | 12 – Bag | 13 – Rain boot | 14 – Travel Kit | 15 – Men’s Boot | 16 – Pajamas | 17 – Sweatpants | 18 – Makeup | 19 – Cardigan

Nordstrom is having the best Cyber Monday sale today! I went through and rounded up my favorites!  Some of these items I recently purchased full price and are items you don’t see on sale very often, like UGG and Hunter boots!

You guys know I love a good ankle pointed toe bootie and I can’t believe these are 45% off!!! Such a good deal if you are looking for a good quality bootie in any of the 6 color options now is the time, they are under $100 right now!

I’m obsessed with these leopard slippers!! I ordered a few pairs…one for myself and a few to give away as gifts!  On sale at just under $30 they make the perfect price point for a gift for a girlfriend or holiday gift exchange.

These pajamas are so soft and cozy for sleeping or just lounging around the house and they’re 40% off!  They come in 4 colors and I am having trouble picking just one…I love them all!

If you are looking for a good snow/rain boot these are now on sale for under $100 and so so cute!  I am always living in boots like this when winter hits here in Utah.

This bag is such a great staple and 25% off if you don’t already have a tan leather bag in your closet! This brand doesn’t go on sale very often and it’s a classic bag that will never go out of style.

Cody and I actually both have and love these sweatpants🙂 One of the few times he will match with me 😉 If you are needing a good gift for your boyfriend, husband, or dad – I highly recommend these leather boots or this travel kit. You can’t go wrong with gifting a nice, quality leather boot that will last them awhile!  And the travel kit is something not all men would think to buy for themselves so it makes the perfect gift!

Stocking stuffers are my favorite!  Its so fun coming up with ideas for the whole family….little gifts that you don’t have to wrap are always nice!  This volume spray is one of my personal favorite beauty products and is really a must for any girl! I am always a fan of toys that aren’t huge, bulky and plastic, so the cute stuffed mermaid and woven finger puppets I had to order. And these customizable glasses are the easiest heartfelt gift ever. They work for anyone from newlyweds to long time lovebirds…you really can’t go wrong with these! Coffee table books are something on my list every Christmas. Not very many coffee table gifts fit in stockings but if you find some cute smaller ones they are awesome gifts too. I am getting Cody this monopoly one because we love to play the card version together!

How do you like to fill your stockings?  Do you have any fun traditions?

Happy Sunday!  Hope you all had a great week. I’m excited to answer some questions this week – you guys send in the best questions!  I get a lot about being a step mom and the fertility journey so I made sure to include some of those below. 🙂

1. How often do you see your step kids?
We share custody with their mom, but she has primary custody. Its nice because we live close to each other so now that they are in sports and stuff we still get to go to their games and school activities and see them even on the days that we don’t have them.

2. Favorite TV shows right now?
We watch The Office or Seinfeld every night before we go to bed when we don’t have a series that we are in to. Or just to shut off for the night if we are watching an intense series. We just got into Designated Survivor which we love. We finished Ozarks last month which was so good! (This is an adult show so if you’re a younger reader I would stay away 😉

3. How do you stay so thin?
Because of my genetics I am naturally thin but if I’m not working out or being active I loose muscle fast and feel soft and kind of bloated haha I don’t really know how to explain it.  I workout to stay toned and because I love the way it makes me feel. It give me more energy for sure and helps with stress.

4. Do you follow a strict diet? Or if you want something do you let yourself have it?
I for sure indulge and let myself have it!  I will try different things like cutting sugars or not eating as much processed food or soda but as much as I wish I could, I can’t stick with those diets for too long so I try to set short term goals for myself. 

5. What are your favorite makeup products these days?  Favorite eyeshadow?
My favorite eyeshadow right now is this palette I just got from Bobbi Brown – its so pretty! Other products I am loving lately are: this bronzer, this mascara, this primer, this eyeliner, this foundation, and this brow pencil! **And good news!! Sephora is having their Beauty Insider sale right now…everything is 15% off through Monday! Time to stock up 🙂

6. How is your infertility journey going? What are your next steps?
We got some answers from the doctor last week and I’ll be sharing more soon – thanks for all of your sweet messages and notes it really means so much to me. ❤️

7. Favorite store to buy nice shoes?
Saks definitely has one of the best Designer shoe selections. I am pretty loyal to Nordstrom so I look there a lot too but their styles are more mainstream if that’s what you are looking for! Net-a-Porter and SSense have more unique styles.

8. What happens to all the clothes you model. Do you keep them? Are they loaned?
97% are either gifted or I buy them, on a rare occasion for really expensive jewelry where I have worn multiple pieces for a post they can be loaned to style shoots. A majority of the clothes are mine and the clothes I don’t keep I give to my friends and family. I will sell the higher end pieces and do blogger sales. I donate a lot to charity and I give a lot to my family’s church in Montana where they donate to foster kids that don’t have clothes.

9. Your favorite wardrobe staples?
For fall & winter, when it gets really cold I don’t get ready as much because I hate being cold!! So to be honest I am in sweats and comfy clothes a lot.  I recently got this new fuzzy hoodie and love this jacket and this pink corduroy jacket.

I think its worth investing in a nice handbag but thats always relative to your budget, don’t make yourself go broke over it!  Pick something that is timeless – pick something that is a neutral color. Buy one bag that is nicer that can work with multiple outfits instead of 5 cheaper ones. My favorite designer bag is this one. 

I found a tan suede bootie after my hunt last week! A couple of you actually emailed me and it was so sweet!  I have had them on repeat this week. I also just got this pair in the mail and I love love them!!

And lastly, a comfy pair of distressed jeans will always be one of my wardrobe staples. The pair I definitely wear the most and am most asked about are these.  

10. How did you feel about becoming a step mom?
It was never an issue to be a step mom because my parents got divorced when I was little and my step mom was always so great to me. She was such a good example and I grew up with a loving step mom so that really helped me when I became one. She always treated me with so much love that I was excited to be a step mom too 🙂 I’m not saying it isn’t hard, with any situation there are always hard emotions you have to navigate through. But the idea of being a step mom was never hard for me! Even if you didn’t have a step mom growing up it doesn’t mean you cant be a great step mom! I can’t imaging our family without Mara and Wes and I made a conscious decision early on to treat them as if they are my own. Go in with a mentality that you don’t want to replace their mom but that you will love them and treat them as your own.

11. What’s Cody’s profession?
He’s an entrepreneur and runs and manages couple different companies. 

12. How do you deal with mom guilt especially when traveling without Beckam?
Its definitely hard, but my parents live out of town and so I look at it as a good opportunity for them to watch Beckam and spend time with him – they usually come to town to watch him or he goes up to Montana to stay with them. He loves being in Montana and I love that he gets one on one time with them.  Some times are harder than others but I am always excited and re-energized to come home and be the best mom to him I can be!

13. How tall are you and Cody? 
Cody is 6’3” and I’m 5’7” and 3/4…I like to claim 5’8” 😉

Thanks for sending such great questions and following along.  Love you all!

Xx,
Christine
