I love our love. Happy 2nd anniversary, Alex. 🤍

On Christmas Eve, Alex helped Angela devise a plan for a secret gender reveal! He worked really hard for over a week building the wheel and coding the game so that we could play with a custom clue announcing that @angila_2009 and Evan are expecting a baby BOY in June! I am so excited to be able to share this news and so thrilled for my little sister and her sweet husband. The Henderson Expansion pack is going to be 🔥🥰✨

So thrilled to get to see Elizabeth Warren speak tonight. I believe in her and can’t wait to vote for her in 2020!!!

Here is me this morning, blissfully modeling my new @alicealexanderco wool top and vest before heading to a family Christmas party. I was so psyched that these garments finally arrived in the mail last night just in time for me to wear them for the first official Christmas gathering and j made Alex document the occasion. Fast forward an hour, after we’ve stopped for our chai lattes and are getting back in the car to head out of town. Climbing into my seat, my purse hits Alex’s hand holding his cup full of chai and my left sleeve turns into a brown, polka dotted mess. I’m devastated. I know that sounds truly dramatic. It’s just a shirt and it’s just some spilled milk (plus lots of brown stuff). But I’d felt SO PERFECT in my new outfit. I felt confident and stylish and put-together and now my options became 1) attempt to wash my shirt in my brother’s sink and then wear a wet white sweater to a party and risk the stain setting or 2) drive home and apply stain remover and get it in the washer and change clothes and be an hour late to the party. Well reader I chose #2 and as of 2 runs through the washer + stain fighter, my sleeve is still dotted with brown and I’m still really really sad about it. But. For the hour we spent together, I loved her well.

Update! Thank you to everyone who suggested the snag-nab-it tool! My husband spent about 45 minutes half watching football and half saving this dress and I’m just so thrilled with the results! Swipe to see the before!

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. But it’s maybe cheating because it feeling like the start of Christmas is one of the things I love about it! But there’s just something about a day centered around family and good meal and taking time to acknowledge how grateful we are for each other is just really beautiful and special. I know this time of year can be hard for those who are experiencing grief more than joy but I hope however you spent this holiday you were surrounded by people who love you and give you peace.

#aceandjigfriends I’ve only worn my lovely Dani dress twice and when I got it out for a third wear I noticed some really unfortunate snags! I’m not sure if this was a dog jumping on me or like grazing up against some unfinished wood or WHAT but I’m sad and want to fix it! Anyone have any suggestions? Should I take this to a tailor? Is there something I can do without much skill that will clean it up? #aceandjig

A Sunday with no football game to watch! Don’t get me wrong, I do enjoy cozying up in the couch with my laptop or snuggling my niece or nephew while the family cheers on the Dallas Cowboys, but during football season, a Sunday free to do whatever our hearts desire is hard to come by! Today we are getting lunch and then heading to the Day of the Dead festival in the plaza district! (Fingers crosses next year I’ll be in Mexico for the celebration!) later tonight we are meeting up with my sister and her husband to plan a weekend getaway to the Christmas markets on the east coast. Feeling bright and sunshiny today! Have a great day everyone! 🥰 .
Vintage skirt paired with Suunday Clara blouse. I took the elastic out of the waist band of the shirt and it lays much better for tucking in now!

New #aceandjigtryonstories in my stories (and will be in my highlights later)! Devastated I can’t just keep this in my closet 😭

I am 100% obsessed with my @sotelaco Luna wrap dress 🖤 I snagged this at a recent sample sale here on insta and I’m so glad I took a chance on this! Any ideas on how to style this for cold weather??? .
