fun fur & life update

Just when I thought it was time to put away all the furs and jackets- winter said- NOPE! We got dumped on with snow here in Utah. We probably got 2 feet up here in the mountains where I live. Maybe more… and it’s still snowing!

Little life update: Life is busy. As if I need to tell any of you that- you know it is. Lately I have found myself being so overwhelmed by the giant to-do list I write every morning that by noon I find myself having done my work out and then sitting on the couch with a cup of tea watching TV while the older two are in school and Rem takes a nap! It’s like my brain just shuts down due to overload- next thing I know it’s time to pick up Beck & Hads and start the after school chaos!

I am going to try and tackle this problem with some new ideas I have- I’ll report back if they work and share them!

If you have any tips and tricks to organize yourself without feeling like you have too much to tackle- PLEASE let me know!

be a dreamer (and a doer)

Seven years ago I bought a one-way ticket to San Francisco, and with two suitcases filled to the brim I set out to change up my life.  I had a job lined up with my then law firm, so that was good, but no apartment, no savings, and lots of debt.

In that first year I changed apartments 3 times (eek), took the California bar twice (oopsie), ran my second ever marathon (YAY!), landed an amazing in-house job at a huge tech company (woohooo!!), and met my now husband (awwww)…

… oh… and I ate a ton of seafood and did much wine tasting 😉

ALL IN JUST ONE LITTLE YEAR!

So much awesome can happen if you just start the ball rolling.

The days are starting to get longer and spring is just around the corner.  It’s the perfect time of year to set intentions.  Be a dreamer! Visualize your goals – however fuzzy they may be at this point – then take that critical first baby step toward attaining them.   And then repeat… dreamer/doer/dreamer/doer/dream/do..

Need a cute reminder? … We got you covered 😉

Seeing spots

Leopard has been HUGE this season- but let’s be honest, when is it not?! So… I of course fell in love instantly with the faux fur leopard coats I have been seeing everywhere.

*My jacket is #1 below

You saw @meg_legs style our starry night dress with a leopard faux fur, I’m sure. She did a blog post about it here: It was amazing!

So..here are some of my favs that I’ve found- in all price points ($39-$795- Most are in the $100-150 range)! Bonus is- lots of them are on sale post holiday!

werk week

Happy Monday!  Today is the start of my 3rd week at my new day job!  Like many SF tech companies, the office dress code is super casual.  I have’t gone full sweatsuit yet, but I have been subbing out my slacks for denim.  A pretty blouse or fitted knit paired with skinny or straight jeans is my go-to.

This floral print blouse was just added to the Juniper Lemons boutique this weekend!  It also happens to be what I wore to my first interview at new co!  I paired it with a black pencil skirt and boots for the interview though.

it’s here!

The weekend is here and we’ve added some new goodies to the boutique, including my new favorite scarf!blanket scarf 1

This blanket scarf is so incredibly cozy, and the neutral colors go with literally EVERYTHING!  Recently I’ve been pairing it with our peplum sweater as shown above.  LOVE!!

Another new fave that’s perfect for the weekend is the ‘amelie’ high-low top.

It’s relaxed fit is effortlessly cool as demonstrated by Aj here!  Pair the amelie top with jeans or leggings for running around town, or tuck it into a pencil skirt for the office.

Happy weekending ya’ll!
