If you follow me on Instagram, (@thekathrynelise), I recently did a poll to see what your favorite Amazon finds under $25 are. You guys sent in SO many great ideas and I also wanted to include some of the items I also have recently bought and love. When to comes to Amazon shopping, we buy a lot of our daily household items, things for Ford and random finds. I do love the convenience of Amazon and the ability to find basically everything we need and getting it super quickly! I thought I would compile a few favorites under $25. Thanks to everyone for your input!

I didn’t truly see the value in planning family photos until we had Ford. Now, time seems to go so fast and he’s constantly growing and changing which makes me want to capture every stage. I knew without a doubt that we would do family photos this fall to capture this time and to include for holiday cards! Truthfully, I didn’t send out holiday cards last year but am making it a priority this year. I thought I would share my planning tips and some advice to make your session go smoothly. Of course, I highly suggest working with a photographer that you can trust to execute your vision. I ended up going with a new photographer in KC this year and was blown away by the results! Thanks, Kelsey!

I didn’t have much Halloween decor to start with this year, so wanted to focus on a few key basics that were simple enough to use each year and would be fun for Ford. I ended up with a few really fun pieces that I found at Party City, along with classic “pumpkin” decor that I have picked up at my favorite local stores. I decided to pick “one” focal area to go all out and for us it was our living room.

That means, looking for quality items that are made well and can easily be mixed-and-matched to create easy looks for all the roles I play...running a business to blogging events and of course, being a mom. Sharing a few of my spring wardrobe essentials for everyday life!

It’s fun to switch up my look by trying new denim styles and I am loving all of the different styles this season. After several years of sticking to skinny jeans, I decided to add a few different looks to my rotation including a pair of high-waist “mom jeans”, the flare crop and distressed straight leg denim.

Getting dressed always ends up being the last thing on my morning to-do list. After feeding the baby, pumping, taking care of the dog, attempting to feed myself (a.k.a coffee time) and getting everything ready for the day, there’s just not a lot of time left to think about what I am going to wear. Plus, I am running all over the place. So, I have to get ready in a look that works for work errands, meetings & photo shoots, and taking care of the baby. Quite the feat. Here are my current winter basics that have been on repeat and can be worn in so many ways. Seriously, just throw it on and go!

If I am being totally honest, creating a “wish list” for myself was really hard this year. It was such a big year having Ford and growing our family that I didn’t feel like there was anything I truly needed. But after my husband and a few family members hounding me, I pulled together a few items I wouldn’t mind having…so, I thought I would share as a way to possibly inspire you, if you are also struggling to come up with ideas or need inspiration for someone on your list!

Becoming a mom has definitely changed my style. I now have less time to try-on outfits and typically am getting ready during Ford’s first nap of the day, so am trying to super efficient. Plus, I am still breastfeeding and plan to continue to…so I am always looking for pieces that are versatile and functional. I invested in some great pieces for fall that can easily be mix-and-matched together and work for business meetings to events and days at-home. Here are my favorites!
