My Self-Love Holiday Gift Guide featuring low and

My Self-Love Holiday Gift Guide featuring low and luxe items is now live on The Style Du Jour! Here's a preview of one of my luxe picks - ZIIP Beauty Facial Electrical Device by @ziipbeauty

Created by founder and celeb esthetician Melanie Simon, ZIIP uses nanocurrents and microcurrents to communicate with skin cells and encourages them to make an abundance of collagen and elastin to help create healthy, lifted, glowing skin that gets better over time. I've been using mine for the last few weeks and I'm hooked on how simple and easy it is to use and how refreshed and smoothed my skin feels. It's so cool how it synches with an app to deliver the treatment of your choice (bonus: new and different treatments are added to the app all the time). ZIIP is the perfect group gift for anyone who craves a spa-day and you can get it for 20% off now from www.ziipbeauty.com with code ZIIP20!

What does self-care look like for you these days??

What does self-care look like for you these days??

Serving mac & cheese for dinner (most nights) to avoid food fights and avoid a messy kitchen? 🙋🏼‍♀️

Relying on tv and iPad time to scrap together time to work, make a call or just sit down and scroll aimlessly through the phone? 🙋🏼‍♀️

Waking up early enough to brew coffee and have a cup in silence before the house wakes up?? 🙋🏼‍♀️

Honestly, “self-care” has always rubbed me the wrong way because I didn’t do it. I’ve put myself last for years. If there’s an upside to 2020, it’s been the ultimate push to carve out time for me - all from home. I’ve finally started to see a therapist (thank you Zoom!), I’ve been working out consistently for the first time in years and love it (@onepeloton 💯) and I found dosed edibles that have really helped with my nighttime anxiety and sleep.

It’s still day-by-day over here juggling 2020 life, that’s the truth. How are you finding small or significant ways to make time for yourself??

There's no doubt that 2020 is one for the books. (

There's no doubt that 2020 is one for the books. (#ad) While I love having my photos a click away on my phone, nothing can replace a beautiful printed photo which is why I'm so excited to surprise the kids with a special printed memory book. I'm using the free @MotifPhotos app to create and customize a gorgeous book direct from my iPhone. I always have the hardest time deciding on photos to individually print and with a @MotifPhotos book, I can include ALL the photos. Can't wait to share the finished product with them! Anyone else plan to create a printed photo book for themselves or for loved ones as a holiday gift this year? #MotifPhotos #PhotoBook #MotifHoliday

(Hint: This is a GIVEAWAY post!)
How's everyone doing this school year? If you're like our household, we're taking it day by day over here. The one thing I've started doing that helps us stay focused during our morning of virtual learning is putting out the snack basket at the start of our day. After we're done with breakfast, I fill this basket with fresh fruit, crunchy veggies and wholesome snacks like @madegoodfoods Granola Minis (made with organic oats and vegetable nutrients) so Teddy and Sloane can help themselves between Zoom calls and school activities.
