Doesn't it seem like everyone is in Mexico? I swear. Envious...a bit but hey, Spring is right around the corner and I'm feeling it big time. Maxis, tanks, sandals and more...today's round up is Spring Break inspired and if you're jumping on a plane to jet set to the nearest pearly, white beach - get on this shopping list muy pronto.
Read MoreI just want to thank you all for being so patient with my blogging hiatus. I really needed a break. I know life went on for all of you but I am super hard on myself so bear with me. I needed a moment to get inspired and just breathe.
The real reason I was absent was because I went to NYC with four girlfriends to celebrate a big birthday. I don't go on many girls' trips but it was fantastic. I've been such a stress basket case lately and they reminded me (continuously) that I need to stop and just enjoy life. Amazing food, lotsa belly laughs and genuine, authentic girl talk. My cup runneth over. I've waited for girlfriends like this my whole life.
Read MoreSummer is in full force and so are the fashion trends. Who could resist fruity prints, feminine details, sexy tanks and breezy sundresses? Not I said the fly. I've rounded up my latest lust list for your viewing (or shopping) pleasure.
Read MoreI'm curating quite the birthday wish list if you couldn't tell! I'm back with five more Tuesday finds that I had to share with you, dear readers. (check out last week's picks) With the exception of the sandals, all are under $100 which makes it completely worthy of your weekly treat to yourself. Just sayin... Sit back, grab your cup of Jo - Tuesday is a great day to shop!
Read MoreYep, the turtleneck is back. I told you I loved it - now you know I wasn't kidding. It's the most versatile winter piece in my closet these days because...It's FRIGID in Chicago. I mean FREEZING. BITTER COLD. SNOT FREEZES IN YOUR NOSE.
Now that we have that covered...
Read MoreI think any day with candy is a good day indeed. I'm working hard to curb my December sweet tooth, which, let's be honest...isn't going that well. Damn you December and all your chocolate and sweets and cookies. Uggg.
Read MoreI'm a firm believer that one always looks pulled together in all black. Even when it's been over five nights of no sleep due to a nasty virus. Yes, tis true folks...my kids were sick yet again last week. I really feel like we've paid our dues to this year's virus strands. Who gets back to back flu virus'?
Calgon take me away. And book me a vacation, thank you very much.
Read MoreDo you ever look at old posts and sort of cringe? Well, I do. Evidence here. I don't know what I was think with that hair. It's so...suburban of me. Why didn't you guys tell me?
One thing is for sure - still a goober on camera. Kidding...I need to be less hard on myself. I feel like I need to have a Stuart Smalley moment.
Read MoreWriting this post makes me crave candy. It's been over a week and I'm afraid to touch the stuff since the stomach flu. Still feeling after shocks from that one. If I can't indulge on Christmas, you better feed me a LOT of wine because I will be one grumpy girl.
Sugar + Johanna = blissful marriage
