B u r t o n { S n o w b o a r d s }

So besides styling and personal shopping, my husband and i represent Burton Snowboards in the Mid-Atlantic region. As our selling season comes to an end it means that Spring is around the corner which also means it's time for our annual sample sale. 

I really look forward to our sample sale weekend. I get to shop at the showroom for next winters snowboard kit as well as grab awesome beanies, gloves, socks and more for the kids and me. We BBQ all day with a ton of friends and their families, drink, run around and just hang out together. A lot of the people that come up end up riding while they are there so it ends up being an awesome weekend. 

So here it is! i am inviting you to come and join us! Details are below, hope to see you there!

s t i c k y g r a m 


remember the days of flipping through photo books and seeing your childhood on your lap? seems like forever ago and seems like it will never be like that again. i am guilty of never printing pictures. i keep everything on my iPhone or hard-drive. i tell myself every year that i will start making albums but never seem to get around to it! 

i will say i am really good at documenting everything on Instagram tho. i set my girls up with their own email addresses and email them pictures or videos of what what going on at that moment. But i want so badly to have the physical pictures around the house so that they can remember those moments.


So happy i discovered StickyGram! StickyGram is a personalized printing service that turns your Instagram images into lovely little magnets. You create your pack online and they deliver them for free! It's $14.99 per sheet of 9. 

Here's our new little fridge collage... the girls have been having a blast remembering the past few months via the photos.

One of the reasons i really wanted to start my own styling business is i wanted to help moms get back to feeling good in what they were wearing. There are so many changes that happen after you have a baby. Sleepless nights, getting used to breastfeeding or just a feeding schedule in general, you have that gross soft belly thing, ugh! and many more things that i can't bring myself to write about! Lol.

I have a new client that just had a baby who wants me to help her find clothes that she can wear now but that she can still wear after she loses the baby weight. She is breastfeeding so i am tailoring everything around that.

Here are a few examples of some non-maternity items you can try that are easy to pull up, pull down, unzip or unbutton :) and you will still feel stylish and cute wearing them...


Easy Up Tops
1. nastgal.com fresh slice knit 2. victoria's secret ruched bralette 3. topshop maternity bra 4. nasty gal muscle tank 5. gillian & o'malley nursing bra 6. gillian & o'malley comfort nursing bra




Easy Down


1. do some damage blouse 2. leading lady cami nursing bra 3. mossimo zipper front dress 4. organic second skin nursing bra 5. topshop nursing bra 6. nastygal.com field day top

e a s t e r 

one of my favorite things about having kids is how much more fun holidays have become. as soon as one holiday passes they quickly want to know what holiday is around the corner. in our home, we celebrate easter and the ressurection of our savior. 

of course, as much as i try to make that the focus, the girls seem to keep asking about the bunny and the eggs. lol.

i am a complete pinterest addict and find it so helpful with ideas for decorating, food and activites for the holidays. here are a few examples of some ideas i really want to try...

i live in a pretty conservative and preppy area so i was ESTATIC to find out that they were opening an urban outfitters in our local mall. not does this help me with my business as many of my clients like urban, but i can actually go in and see the item try it one etc. instead of ordering it online and  being disappointed with the quality and/or fit.

i happened to drop in there today to pick up a birthday gift for my bestie (wink* wink* mellie) and had to share some other amazing finds...




milkshop favorites
everything can be found on urbanoutfitters.com

4. staring at stars lace frock dress 5. ecote geo pompom backpack 6. staring at stars array cardigan

i've had my J. Crew camo jacket for 3 years now and every time i where it people ask me where they can get one. needless to say, i've been on be hunt for one for a while. my friend kara saw an Instagram post from @targetdoesitagain and alerted me immediately. she was nice enough to pick one up for me because my target didn't have them yet.

i was so surprised and happy with how great it is. it's light, easy to layer with and very flattering and only $35. bottom line is run don't walk to target tomorrow because these will not be around for long.

i know that after a while it is so hard to figure out what to get your significant other. why not hire me to shop for them!! I can put together a few outfits or just one for a special night out. I also can makeover their closet and breathe life back into items they already have but need to get styled differently.


i am doing free consultations for the next 2 weeks as a valentine's day special. let me know if you are interested!
