I think that this is going to be a really popular read! This week I’m giving away three copies of Being Audrey Hepburn. (Who doesn’t just love Audrey?!)
From the Being Audrey Hepburn Website:Lisbeth is a nineteen-year old girl from the wrong side of the tracks who gets through her crummy life by obsessively watching Audrey Hepburn movies. Fascinated with everything Audrey, she is transformed when she secretly tries on Audrey’s Givenchy and falls into a world of intrigue. Soon she’s thrust into a world of A-listers, paparazzi, fame, love and betrayal. A novel in the tradition of the Nanny Diaries and The Devil Wears Prada, it’s a coming of age story that begins with that little black dress.
Mitchell Kriegman, the author, is the writer of Clarissa Explains It All. Remember that show?! I really love this quote from him: “One major focus in my work, including Clarissa Explains It All and this novel, Being Audrey Hepburn, is the Pygmalion Effect. The Pygmalion Effect is simply the creative transformation of self. It’s about deciding who you want to be and overcoming the naysayers.” Yep. I can get behind that!
Being Audrey Hepburn has been officially added to my “to-read” list.
I love Audrey Hepburn! Her name is kinda great ;P A book I've always wanted to read is How to be a Hepburn in a Hilton World. -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
When your toothbrush (@shoptrask!) is so cute you ALMOST don’t want to use it! I considered “saving” it (for what? I don’t know) and decided to ignore my instinct and enjoy it every day! I often have to remind myself about the number of stickers I didn’t use as a kid because I was “saving” them… or stationery collecting dust in a drawer because I was “saving” them… or candles that went unlit because I was “saving” them… or even a cute outfit I was “saving” for a special occasion. Trying to be better about using the things I have and love without guilt!!
I’ve been loving wearing my scarf collection and I’ve been getting questions about how I tie them! This is probably the way I wear it most- it’s super easy and the trick is to not be overly fussy with it. Go for it and zhuzh it up a little but don’t make it too perfect! Goal is effortless!
Fold the silk scarf across the middle to create a long triangle. Holding the two corners, twist the triangle back *towards* you a few times. While holding the corners, wrap behind your neck crossing behind you and pulling the corners back to the front of your neck. Tie once, then again to secure. I like to tuck mine into a button down!
PS I got this Hermes scarf as a souvenir while in Paris!
A wild Saturday night around here… and I wouldn’t want it any other way! A relaxing shower, clean hair, cozy bedtime routine, sourdough, laundry, a clean playroom, mahjong, (a little sweet treat… or two), needlepoint, skincare, and a good book! What could be better???
An evening routine as a mom of two with timestamps!
@mackenziechilds has done it again! Say hello to Mocha Check, the latest pattern in the MacKenzie-Childs family. I am loving how the neutral but warm tones brighten up my office space! Swipe to see how I’ve incorporated the pieces throughout my office. #MCPartner #MCMochaCheck
Getting ready for the day and need help picking out which shoe to wear! My whole outfit is head to toe @amazon! Are we feeling the sneakers or the kitten heel mules?

Tonight we achieved the impossible! @wishbonekitchen’s swamp soup received a “no notes” stamp of approval from Mike 🙌🏻 it’s filling, healing, and so fresh! Highly recommend!!! 💚🌿🪀♻️🦖
If your goals for 2025 include reading more and having better habits, @audible audiobooks are about to be your best friend! I love listening to audiobooks, especially when they help me become a better person, wife, friend, mom, etc. January is the perfect time to dive into one and cross two of your goals off at once. I’m listening to Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory and it’s blowing my mind– “let them” is such a simple phrase and yet the impact is POWERFUL.
