I'm reformulating my Fearless Friday questionnaire. SO in the meantime, I'm starting a new Friday series. Welcome! Grab a cocktail and enjoy the five things that I learned, made me smile, dumbfounded me, etc. this week. Starting with...

It's good to be back. Sometimes pauses are needed and it wasn't because December wasn't stylish...quite the opposite! It really came down to a need to disconnect and schedules. But I am back with a sweet style post that plays upon a more muted palette. A little change up from the red and sequin favorites that come only with December.

Santa is always kind to me. In particular, this past Christmas, his shopping was on point! More of that to come in my first style post...which I am trying to wrangle up as every photographer wipes the cob webs away. Anyhoo, even though I am not in the market to be shopping at the moment...I have been saving some fabulous finds for YOU!

A fresh start. A clean slate. I love the promise of a new year. For me, it's equivalent to a freshly laundered bed. Jump in and cozy up because we've got 362 days left of opportunity. And while it's easy to get burnt out in marriage, work, in parenting, in friendship, in blogging...taking time off provided me perspective. With that, my first post of the year!

Do you remember 2015's learnings? Me neither! Funny how some things remain the same yet so much has changed. I feel like this list is a little cranky but I really spoke authentically. 2016 was a great year but it had its challenges. I'm actually a bit exhausted from learning so I'm using this last week to recharge my batteries...hence the blog silence. I just need a break from pictures and pressure - truthfully. On the positive front; this has been a great year for family. We have had so much fun and I feel blessed that I have them to keep me grounded. We all need that don't we?

I get asked constantly how my clients can improve their Instagram game. Constantly and it's one of my favorite questions to answer because it changes constantly!
If there's one thing I am well versed on, a student for life, it's social media. I don't talk about my job too much on this little blog of mine but I can tell you I know what I know and in this case...it's Instagram. I could not even calculate the hours I have spent staring at those little boxes and hashtags trying to up my game for my clients and then eventually...myself...all in the name of this little blog. I'm passionate about it and I love it. Sometimes I hate it but all in all, I'm infatuated with the conversations taking place.

I can't imagine a winter that didn't involve heavy coats and multiple layers. It's all I've ever known. And if you talk to any good Midwesterner, they'll be extraordinarily candid about how important a good coat can be. Take it from someone who is looking forward to 40 degree temps today. And yes, you read that correctly. We were in the negatives just 48 hours ago, my friends.
