Hello everyone hope you are well. I wanted to thank you for following my styling journey for so many years, but as some of you know I have taken on a new venture The MS Stage - a 6 week healing program I created for women with Multiple Sclerosis through movement, meditation, storytelling and other practical mindfulness tools.

If you know a woman who has or was recently diagnosed please pass on the website www.themsstage.com and follow my new business page themsstage on FB.

I will be closing this page before the holidays but please do stay in touch.

Here I was with Annie, my new friend on New Year’s Day. It was one of the most magical, joyous and special things I have ever experienced in my life. It was also an awesome way to kick off 2022 for me with my family.

I vividly remember calling dolphins 🐬 my “spirit animal” when I was 14 years old. I have felt that connection most of my life. So when given the choice to snorkel with them in a saltwater lagoon at a Dolphin Sanctuary, I jumped on it.

I must say, every time Annie would come by me, I was allowed to touch her side just like you see in this picture. What you don’t see is me sobbing in my snorkel. When I touched her I would feel a surge of energy that overcame me so deeply that I would start sobbing uncontrollably. Then she would swim away, and the crying would stop. She came back and I touched her and it started again. It happened each time until our time was up.

As she would make her dolphin sounds, I would make my own noises through gutteral tears with a snorkel in my mouth. There was no way I was going to look above water because I wanted to hold that connection as long as possible to be one with her other world.

It was pure magic! Pure connection. Communing with nature at its finest. I have gone inward a lot these past 10 days processing my feelings and the shifts in my body. I do believe a healing took place in those moments.

Dolphins are the embodiment of joy. They have a playfulness about them and such an ease and flow with their movement.

Well today on 01/11/2022 (you know me and my love of numbers) I am officially beginning my New Year. I have needed rest and self love this past week, but I am finally ready to let you know about something I have been working on the past couple months.

For my fellow MSers, I have created a 6 week online program that I will be beta testing with 6 women before launching. I will guide you to get into the flow of YOUR MS journey through improvisation, wellness and style. We will commune together to merge our healing journeys celebrate our collective strength and most importantly HAVE FUN! As dolphins do:)

If you’re interested in learning more, DM me.

Can’t wait to connect with y’all!

Me, my “BOO” and 3 of our nieces. Somehow the blue M&M slipped away. 🤷‍♀️hope everyone had a fun Halloween! And ps I’m wearing my grandmothers old dress. Fun way to bring it out this season. 👗

As y’all know, color can play a huge role in not just your mood for the day but also your motivation, your vibe, how people perceive you, and how confident you feel.


Well today as I embarked on a new journey with learning how best to write my memoir with I chose to wear my new dress that makes me feel fun and colorful and ready for something new. This much color is not usual for me but when I tried it on at the store a few weeks ago, it just felt right for the new beach life Craig and I are creating in Charleston and the fun that is to come with newness abounding.


It’s odd to think this is new to me since I grew up here, but I haven’t lived here in 27 years. In that time not only am I a woman now but Charleston has changed and grown up too. Many new things to explore here so this dress feels right!


How does color play a role in YOUR wardrobe choices? Share with me! 😘

Never been so happy to see my meditation pillow in my life! It’s been waiting patiently for me in a box for 5 months!


Ahh! Life is good! Today is moving day! Time for settling in and settling down. A new Peace has come over me.

My favorite being. Love this boy! Enjoying a Saturday off. 2 more weeks until we move into our new home! 🙏

I can’t believe another year has gone by. Last year we drew 16 in the SNOW in Crested Butte. (Swipe left) This year we drew 17 in the SAND. Today marks 17 years since I was first diagnosed with . I was 24 years old at the time.

“It’s as if you’ve had a stroke” the neurologist said. “You will probably end up in a wheelchair one day.”

I remember looking at my Mom and saying, ‘like hell I will. We are never coming back to this doctor again. ‘

That was in Charleston. I was in the midst of the first of many moves between New York and LA, and I stopped home along the way to see family and pick up my car to drive it across country. But losing feeling on the left side of my body caused me to stop and slow down. People assumed I would just quit my new job in LA before I even started it and just live the rest of my days at home. I remember my sister’s friend suggesting I get a handicap sticker for my car. I was shocked that someone would assume I would end up needing that, and I said thanks but no thanks.


In many ways, a circle has formed. I lived these past 17 years in New York, LA, and Nashville and have just now moved back home to Charleston with my husband whom I did not know back then. I remember sitting on my mom’s sofa after that neurologist and wondering if I would ever be able to meet a man who would love me. Especially with MS. But I ended up with someone better than I could have ever imagined. He too, considers Charleston like a home to him - having grown up spending time in South Carolina.

So today, we CELEBRATE. I celebrate that I am proud of myself for coming this far. For going after my dreams and facing my fears and actually living the best life while still taking care of myself. Of course not all days are rosy, and I still have issues with that same left leg that gave me trouble back then. But damn if I am going to let that stop me. Today I honor my legs and thank them for allowing me to move with them and to live my life the best way I know how. Hope this can be a reminder to celebrate the things that at first glance we think are holding us back but in many ways, they can b our greatest teachers.
What has been YOUR greatest teacher?

Since I only have a few pieces with me in Charleston, I decided to play with various options of the same look but by adding a different sweater. It feels totally different each time. It changes the look and feel. All it takes is a simple pair of black leggings with a classic button down and a pair of black boots and you can keep creating with what you already own. I'm sure y'all have these pieces at home so start playing with them. 😀

Totally feeling this vibe today. It is freezing up here in the Northeast so a faux fur jacket with light wool pants sounds yummy. Most of these pieces are in storage right now in Nashville but one can dream right? ⁠
⁠
⁠
What I love about this look is that it is totally neutral with the all black but has a pop with the light gray faux fur jacket. I also love mixing textures. Leather boots. Wool pants. Shiny top and the faux fur all work well together. The textures in and of themselves make it a mix and match even within the basics of an overall neutral look. Super sleek and chic if you ask me. ⁠
⁠
⁠
It also feels VERY New York City, and as I am only a couple of hours away currently, I am wishing I could go into the city like old times, shop for clients, see friends and go to my favorite spots. So close yet so far. But I must say, that even just being away at all feels refreshing, especially in a little apartment in the Hamptons. Hope y'all are having a great day and staying warm. Xo

So much has happened and changed since this picture was taken over a year ago. With the world. With me personally. With everything. It’s hard to even believe it. Honestly.


But one thing remains certain. All of the clothes I have on in this picture - I still own. I still wear. They are some of my absolute favorite pieces. What struck me when I saw this pic is that every one of these pieces are ones that I actually packed and brought with me to in the 1 suitcase that I packed with my winter clothes. Literally each one of them is with me now.


I always tell y’all that when you pack for a trip to pack your favorite pieces. I also always practice what I preach, but I laughed when I saw this image and knew how true that lesson really is and how I really do abide my own rules. We will wear our favorite pieces more when we pack them than if we had packed a piece we don’t love as much and are unsure about it. I knew I would be in Charleston living out of suitcases for this winter and possibly this spring and summer. But since we didn’t have a home yet and weren’t sure how long it would take, I prepared by packing a very small amount of my favorites. 1 suitcase for winter. 1 for spring/summer and 2 garment bags of hanging pieces for each. It felt smart and easy and has worked perfectly this past month.


So I am here to tell you that you can minimize your wardrobe by sticking to your favorite pieces. It doesn’t have to be a certain number of pieces. It doesn’t have to be called a capsule wardrobe. It just has to feel like YOU and be pieces you love. Stick to your favorites and subconsciously you will edit your closet without even really trying. And if you need help making choices, join me Wednesdays at 2pm EST for my IG Live Closet Confessionals. I will work through your pieces with you Live. All you have to do is follow me on Instagram and Request to Join to be called on Live from your own closet. Can't wait to See you then!

Today's look is comfort, style and warmth rolled into one. On a cold day like this, I wear black opaque tights under this dress with my boots and warm cardigan. Then a coat over it. ⁠

From our discussions last week, I know many of you are not feeling like your clothes are significant to you right now. I totally get it. I have days when I just want to be in my workout clothes all day too. Nothing wrong with that on certain days. But maybe just maybe I can help motivate you to get dressed this week.⁠
⁠
⁠
I've been thinking a lot lately about how we can make getting dressed part of our morning ritual. Just like meditation, exercise and drinking my green tea are a part of my morning ritual, getting dressed can be too. ⁠
⁠
⁠
Last week, I got dressed even just on days when I had to meet with a contractor and an inspector. I could have just worn workout clothes, but I chose to get dressed and truly feel like myself in clothes that made me feel pulled together. It truly does make for a more productive, inspiring day. I can promise you that! Love you all. Happy Monday and let's all Get Dressed this week. Xo
