I've been dying to share pics from our trip and you, know blog in general, but when things get busy for Nickel & Suede or for my family, the internet has to be the thing that gives. Thankfully I have a lot of great help that I rely on constantly. So just a few updates...

You know the feeling of showing up early, being totally prepared and ready to give 100%? Yeah, me either. Especially lately. Over the past few months, I think I have been better than ever at solidifying my reputation for being late,

It's November 18, and it's a big day for our family! First, today is Soren's birthday. He's turning one year older, and we're excited to celebrate him. He is such a great dad, husband, business partner, and example. He's one of the smartest men I know, and I've learned so much from him.

This outfit is one of my favorites so far this year. Unfortunately the top is sold out, but this clutch, these pants, and these shoes are total holiday staples. This furry clutch comes in several colors, and I LOVE the texture it adds to this outfit.

With school starting in just a week and a half, I'm trying to put all of my effort into 1) pulling our lives out of the chaos called summer and 2) making the most of these last long days with my boys.

I'm officially a boy mom. Not that I wasn't before, but yesterday we got a new pet that solidified it. My Dad's co-worker needed to re-home his Leopard Gecko and guess where that new home is? Yep- the Nickels house.

Happy Monday! I'm sharing outfits from Instagram over here on the blog today. I typically share what I'm wearing daily on my IG account

Happy Friday! It's been a crazy week here for us with Spring Break and a lot of things in the works for Nickel & Suede. I decided to make the kids the focus this week and to try to do something fun each day.

Wouldn't you know that as soon as the weather starts warming up that I come down with a cold? Things have been so busy this week with work that I've not gotten enough sleep and I got hit with a head cold.
