On a brisk December Wednesday, she leaned into cozy-chic with her faux leather leggings and a black-and-white Fair Isle sweater that practically screamed "I own this festive season!" Her white leather sneakers added a clean, modern touch, while her everyday gold hoops proved yet again that even casual days deserve a little sparkle. The morning was filled with tambourines, jingle bells, and a beautifully diverse playlist at the first music class of a multicultural holiday session—Miles clapping enthusiastically (and slightly offbeat) to every song. Afterward, she transitioned seamlessly into daycare/cowork mode, sipping peppermint tea and riding the productive wave of holiday cheer, her sweater reminding her coworkers that festivity is a mindset.

On a frosty December Tuesday, she pulled together an outfit that balanced cozy and classic—wide-legged jeans paired with a crisp white oxford shirt layered under a soft gray sweater. Her shearling-lined black loafers were the perfect blend of comfort and sophistication, and her everyday gold hoops added just a touch of shine to the festive chaos ahead. The day started with a productive morning at daycare/cowork (read: sipping coffee while checking off emails), transitioned into an afternoon of untangling twinkle lights and debating whether the stockings looked better on the mantle or the staircase, and ended with her chasing a giggling Miles around the living room. By bedtime, the house felt a little more like Christmas, and her heart felt a little more full.

After two weeks of Thanksgiving travels that felt like a whirlwind of hugs, pie, and never-ending toddler energy, she embraced her first Monday back home with an outfit that screamed cozy-meets-polished. Her wide-legged jeans with chic front pocket detail paired perfectly with a blue turtleneck featuring subtle stripe detailing, layered under an oversized blue cardigan that felt like a warm hug. Shearling-lined black loafers kept her grounded, while her everyday gold hoops added a hint of sparkle as she dove back into the routine. With Christmas decorations now adorning every corner of the house and holiday tunes playing softly in the background, the day felt less like a return to normalcy and more like stepping into a Hallmark movie—routine, yes, but wrapped in the undeniable magic of the season.

My week as a romcom: Ashley, the effortlessly cool stay-at-home mom, had a week straight out of a holiday romcom. It all started Monday aboard the Polar Express, where Miles clutched his golden ticket like a pro and gleefully sipped hot chocolate while the grandparents beamed like they were in their own Christmas movie. Tuesday was a laid-back day of playing with Miles and cozy chats with the grandparents, perfect for gearing up for Wednesday’s trip to her hometown. There, Ashley caught up with her oldest friends, swapping stories that made her feel like she’d stepped back in time. Thursday brought turkey, pie, and plenty of laughs at her mother-in-law’s, where family stories flowed as easily as the gravy. By Friday, the holiday glow continued with a visit from her brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and their adorable nephew, who made every moment feel like the perfect cap to a week brimming with love, nostalgia, and just the right amount of holiday chaos.

Her new platform sneakers with their subtle gold detail added a pop of modern flair to an otherwise classic look, while her everyday gold hoops and necklace tied it all together with effortless charm. The day started with a nostalgic coffee date with an old friend, filled with laughter and stories that made her heart warm despite the frosty air. Back at the house, her son was delighting in playtime with his cousin, aunt, and uncle, their laughter echoing through the halls—a holiday soundtrack she wished she could bottle and save for later.

We chose a butterfly theme for our son’s second birthday because of his pure joy every time he saw one, whether it was fluttering outside, printed in his picture books, or even the small butterfly image on his yogurt packets. His eyes would light up, and his excitement was contagious! He’s also developed an adorable habit of mispronouncing “butterfly” as “firefly,” which just melts our hearts. It felt like the perfect theme to celebrate this sweet phase of his life, where the simple beauty of a butterfly brings so much happiness.

My grandma was absolutely delighted that we were twinning at our family Thanksgiving celebration—proof, I think, that I inherited my sense of style from her.

Ashley, the effortlessly cool stay-at-home mom, had a week full of family, fun, and just the right amount of chaos. Monday started sweetly with a library visit, where Miles proudly picked out books while the grandparents soaked up his every adorable moment. Tuesday’s zoo trip was a hit—Miles couldn’t decide if he loved the elephants or the snack cart more, and Ashley snapped enough photos to fill a memory album. Wednesday was a win for everyone: while Miles and the grandparents explored a charming play space set up like a tiny village, Ashley snagged a blissful hour at a coffee shop, working on her blog (and savoring an uninterrupted latte). Thursday brought the first of many Thanksgiving celebrations, full of turkey, pie, and moments that reminded Ashley how much she loved this season. By Friday, children’s story time turned into a full-on shopping detour when Miles wasn’t feeling the quiet vibe—thank goodness for grandparents who made even impromptu errands feel like a win. Ashley couldn’t help but laugh; with family by her side, even the wild moments felt like part of the magic.

Her everyday gold jewelry added a touch of sparkle as she sipped her latte at a cozy coffee shop story hour, Miles happily perched on her lap. Later, they hit the shops with Grandma in tow, hunting for new toddler clothes (because, apparently, toddlers grow faster than weeds). As they loaded the car with tiny sweaters and pint-sized jeans, she grinned—ready to kick off a weekend that promised family time and maybe, just maybe, a little rest.

She kicked things off with nearly a full day of daycare on Monday, savoring the extra time to catch up on her to-do list (and maybe even a little self-care).

Wednesday brought their favorite music class, where her son clapped along like he was headlining a tiny concert, much to her delight. Thursday’s Little Book Club was the perfect setup for lunch with her mom friends and their kiddos—matching chaos with laughs over lunch, and her heart was full. And that evening? A night out with her oldest friends in the city, which made her feel young and free, just for a bit. By Friday, she was balancing a playdate in the morning with a well-planned daycare afternoon, a little breather to round out the whirlwind week. Ashley’s week had been a perfect mix of mom life and her life, and she was already making plans to do it all over again.
