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.

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.

I’m very excited to share my last partnership of the year with you all -- I’ve loved having the opportunity to work with some incredible small businesses this year 🥰 And I’m getting to close out 2023 with an extra fun one (complete with a fab surprise for one of you)! #ad #happyhabitat #happyhabitatpartner

So let’s get to it: allow me introduce you to a very happy and very cozy partner focused on cheerful blanket designs made with sustainable materials -- and all crafted here on the East Coast! @happyhabitat

The best spot in the house is where I can cozy up with my favorite blanket...along with a couple cuddly pups of course ;) I love that this one adds so much fun personality, can be thrown in the wash (hello organic + recycled cotton), and will make the sweetest picnic blanket in the Spring!

NOW ARE YOU READY FOR A FUN PRIZE?? One of you can win a matching blanket to mine. Just leave a comment with your personal favorite pattern from their throw blanket collection and I'll randomly draw a name on 12/24 as our winner :) Bonus entries for those who share / save the photo on IG or favorite it on LTK -- just send me a screenshot and I'll make sure to add a bonus entry for you.

Best of luck!! In the meantime, you can peruse some of my personal favorites from their collection tagged here 💜

xo!
