First post-baby girls night out and realizing why wrap tops are our friends. This one is superb from Sezane - their fine knits are clutch for fall!

Brooksie’s nursery: our new favorite place in the house. The light in here is magical and there is a constant background of our favorite music. While he’s still sleeping in his bassinet in our room at night, we love doing all our feedings and changes and reading in here with him!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The absolute most treasured piece in this room is the hand-stitched “Brooks” framed above the dresser. Nearly one year ago, Will and I lost a friend of ours to cancer — a truly exceptional, one in a million person with the sharpest wit and irreverent humor, prodigious appreciation of music and literature, and completely inspirational level of empathy and inclusiveness. He was the kind of person who always showed up, who always made you laugh until you cried, couldn’t help but march to the beat of his own drum in a way that made you want to be truer to your own self, and loved his family and friends without bounds. His name was Brooks, and that frame of his name was made by his mom and hung in his own nursery. She so generously shared it with us and it reminds me every time I change our son or feed him or read him a story of the type of person we hope to raise our own Brooks to be.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I shared that this whole journey into parenthood was a surprise — I found out I was pregnant just a couple months after our friend Brooks’ funeral. What kept me from feeling overwhelmed was thinking maybe we could raise someone like our friend Brooks. May we rise up to the challenge of having him embody even slivers of what our friend with the same name did 💜
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Brooks William, we love you so!

All aglow #ad 💡 We've officially entered the season of early sunsets, cozy evenings at home, and dinner parties with friends and family...and the key to enjoying any of the above is ~ ambiance ~ baby!

My key to setting the scene is always ditching the overhead lights and leaning into the warm glow of candles and lamps (hot tip: always opt for warm / soft bulbs!). Doing so seems to immediately both elevate the space and imbibe an overall feeling of comfort.

If you're in the market for upping the warm glow of your own home for the season, it's fabulous timing because @lighting_design_company -- a family owned online retailer that has all my favorite lighting designers like Visual Comfort, Arteriors, Hudson Valley Lighting, and more -- is kicking off their Black Friday sale early so you don't have to wait until after Thanksgiving to take advantage of some great deals :)

From 11/8 - 11/12, you can take 20% off your entire order, or 25% off orders of $500 or more.

** Use code HOLIDAY20 for 20% off your entire order, or HOLIDAY25 for 25% off orders of $500 or more! **

I'm sharing a roundup of my current favorite lighting and decor here for you to get the searching started!

My current favorite things to wear — baby Brooksie and my Sezane knits. Sezane crushes cozy sweaters and jackets IMO.

Grabbed this sweater recently in a size M — I live an oversized crewneck for cold weather! A great Jenni Kayne vibe for way way less.

The crisp days of fall are here which means we are sliding into hosting and holiday gathering season — which I feel all the more acutely now that we are back in the south, the region known for its hospitality. #ad #alicelanehome

I recently stocked up on some beautiful home accessories that make holiday hosting feel all the more effortless, including a few glowy vases and this handsome burl wood serving tray. I know I’ll easily grab for these to pepper floral arrangements, candles, and cocktails about throughout the season and they do a lot to elevate the moment!

Sharing links to all my favorites here — as well as a few other pieces not shown that I grabbed for our home. A new favorite source for me!

Cafe curtains were the perfect solution to giving us some privacy in our bathroom while still letting in a lot of natural light.

I used some beautiful remnant ticking stripe linen fabric and sewed the shades myself, but the cafe rods and clip are really what elevates this moment.

Tagging sources for you! I was a little nervous about the cafe curtain width at first but there is a 1/4”-1/2” wiggle room with how it attaches to the interior sides that ended up being perfect. Highly recommend!

I went with a polished nickel finish for both the rod and the ring clips.

At 36 weeks pregnant, I’m grateful for the small handful of maternity items I grabbed to get me through this final phase…where nothing else in the world will fit 😂

I love a good closet moment - so I knew I wanted to make our nursery closet a sweet little pocket of fun.

I painted the doors and shelves Farrow & Ball’s “Eddy” (matched to Benjamin Moore) wallpapered the walls with a pattern that was a steal from Wayfair, and used felt baskets from Target to corral extra diapers and wipes that can be repurposed to house toys and other bits as our bebe boy grows :)

The little lamp on the shelf is a rechargeable touch light, perfect for illuminating the space for more ambiance while practical ally acting as a bit of a nightlight when you don’t want a bright light waking baby.

I’m still waiting on the door hardware to arrive as well as a rolling basket with partitions from Pottery Barn that we’ll use for toys to easily organize and stow away as needed!

I love this little closet so much I just leave the doors propped open now all the time :)

My favorites from today’s new
Arrivals at Madewell! A celebration of the final days of summer with a sprinkling of pieces that will help transition you into early fall ⭐️

You all probably know by now that I've been a fangirl of @flamingo_estate for years -- I swear by their olive oil, love their Estate Rosé, and their candles completely transform my home to my favorite smells! So when they sent me a collection of my favorite candles and hand soaps the other day, I felt COMPLETELY pampered. #ad #gifted

Their scents transport you to the dreamiest of gardens, and I always find their things to make for the perfect gifts. They sent over their Three Sisters Candle Set: each of the three scents are amazing and also complement each other so nice throughout the house! The 🍅 tomato candle 🍅 is their trademark (for good reason) but I think the rosemary might be my new fav?

The 🍅 hand soap is also such a nice touch for any bathroom or kitchen - there is nothing like elevating the mundane moments to feel like a treat, and washing your hands is one of those perfect moments to do so!

Linking to all of my current favorites from them for you here. Now excuse me while I go set the mood and light my candles!

Happy Friday everyone —
xo.

Our favorite place to spend our mornings and evenings.

This rug was an absolute steal and just takes this space to the next level 💜

My current everyday makeup heroes:

- Ilia tinted moisturizer is my all time fave, as is their concealer
- RMS tinted lip balms always add a perfect flush of color and moisture while still being super natural. I never need to look into a mirror to “apply this right,” just put it on like chapstick and bam you are set!
-Merit blushes are bomb. I use “Beverly Hills” as my base and “Stockholm” layered on top at the apples of my cheeks!
- Jones Road but as a blushed highlighter is yumm and gives a nice subtle shimmer and dewiness!
- I’ve experimented around and I swear that drug store waterproof mascara is what hold curl and looks best on me, and I love to layer that ish on.

Cutest little sun hat from Jcrew, on sale for under $40 💜

#LTKSummerSales #LTKBump #LTKFindsUnder50

Grabbed this boatneck, cropped J.Crew top at the store the other day and for the life of me can’t find this exact style on their website which is a shame bc it’s soooo good. Striped tops are that unicorn staple piece that is hard to get right.

I went up two sizes from my usual to a medium and I love how that gives the flared sleeves extra length and drama - I get like it has slight Toteme vibes, which is always a good thing ;)

Linking what I can and pop into your local store to try to find this!

#LTKStyleTip #LTKSaleAlert #LTKBump

Walked by J. Crew, saw this top in the window, and immediately bought it. 100% my style with those Edwardian details!

Who says you can’t wear suede in the spring / summer (thanks to crazy AC always blasting at work 😂).

Ok did yall know Sézane has a home section? Found these beautifully bohemian embroidered cotton-linen blend pillows there and they are such a pretty punch of pattern.

I have them on our bed here but my eventual goal is to use them in our new guest room when we move next month, which I plan to make dark and moody.

Comes in multiple color ways! Two thumbs up - had to share ;)
