Let It Be Sunday, 195!

Hello dear friend!

This week’s Sunday post comes to you from Mexico City where I’ve consumed my weight in tacos, tequila, city beauty, and wedding love.  I’m here for Ellen (our favorite apron lady) and Casey’s wedding and WOW, naturally it’s epic. 

This week has been a jumble of deadlines and travel prep and consciously putting aside BUT WHAT DO I WEAR anxieties because IT DOESN’T MATTER is the actual answer almost always. 

I hope this week finds you feeling strong and happy and if not… I hope this Sunday is your moment to recharge and locate those feelings.
