It’s not that I don’t trust people, but I’ve been dropped too many times to ever want to do a trust fall again. Clearly, this dog has been lucky enough to never feel the sharp ground ram into his tailbone. It may be hard to believe, but it’s that time of year again – planners for 2017 are on sale! I’m holding out to buy a Whitney English Day Designer, but I almost considered buying another Emily Ley Simplified Planner. I…
Have you ever went home for the weekend and everything was so perfect that it made you wonder why you even moved out in the first place? That was my life for the past few days. I traveled home for MFB’s bridal shower, but…

I don’t think there’s anything that can replace a classic analog watch as the perfect accessory, no matter how much technology advances. Watches make excellent graduation or anniversary gifts and have the added bonus of being able to be easily engraved; I myself gave…
