Best Pair of Black Denim Under $100
Black denim is always in constant rotation for me. I love how a pair of black skinnies can be dressed up or down and styled so many different ways. I am so confident in these jeans (c/o) that I have deemed them the best pair of black denim under $100. They fit like a dream, are so comfortable, have the perfectly placed knee slits, are ankle length, and can be worn with all shoe types from sneaks to heels. Abercrombie is the company responsible for making these amazing jeans and the price point is truly incredible. Check them out if you are in the market for a new pair of black denim and below is style inspo! xo
Our Staple Grocery Lists
We are so excited for this post! Today Lauren and I are sharing our grocery lists- items that are staples inside our refrigerators, freezers, and kitchen cabinets. The items on our lists consist of things that we are constantly buying and buying again.

Friday Night-In Checklist
Sometimes after a busy and long week, a Friday night-in is just what we need. For those moments, we created a Friday night-in checklist for a peaceful, relaxing evening. It's amazing how rejuvenating a night-in can be for the soul. It's a great feeling to wake up Saturday morning to a great cup of coffee, knock out a few things on the to-do list, get a workout or sauna session in, and enjoy a healthy breakfast all before 10AM. Scroll down to see our checklist + get the links to browse. From the coziest sleep shirt from Rails to the best sleep tea from Sakara, these essentials will add some serious comfort to your night at home. Enjoy and happy weekend! xo

Why We Love Everlane Shoes
Today we are sharing why we love Everlane shoes. We knew that we liked them, but now that Lauren and I each own a few pairs and have worn them many times, we are completely sold. Everlane shoes are responsibly made, thoughtfully designed, and made out of high quality leather. They are also extremely practical, versatile, stylish, and comfortable. Comfort is so important when it comes to shoes. Long gone are the days of sacrificing comfort for style. We want a stylish shoe, but comfort is #1. Comfortable shoes allow us the freedom to enjoy long days, go exploring, travel well, be pain-free, and so much more. In addition, we are big believers in investing in quality shoes, rather than buying a lot of not-so-great shoes. Everlane fits the bill for quality shoes that will last. Below are a few of our favorite Everlane shoe styles.

Pretty Images That Inspire Us Creatively
Whenever we stumble across beautiful images on blogs or Pinterest, it’s hard not to feel a sudden wave of inspiration flood over us. Does that happen to you? We love browsing our favorite blogs, Pinterest and Instagram to see pretty images that inspire us creatively. A few of our favorite sites include Darling Mag, Glitter Guide, Because I'm Addicted, Brunch on Chestnut, The Everygirl, Sincerely Jules and so many more. Not only are gorgeous images inspiring, but they are also mood boosting and mind-opening. I often find myself wanting to write, cook, rearrange my apartment, or just sit back and dream after seeing images that inspire me. The below images are images that inspire us, from interiors, to fresh blooms, to crashing waves on the shore. Enjoy and we hope that they inspire you, too. Also, happy friday and here's to a wonderful, relaxing, and fun weekend.

I am so excited to share with you how the healing and growth from my accident, the sweet experiences and adjustments after marrying my best friend, and the daily journey after moving to an entirely new city away from family and life long besties (tears) have ignited in me a desire to learn how to balance life. We want to invite you to a community where we can dream together, grow together, change together, and chat together!
There will be style inspiration still and plenty of fashion talk as well. In addition, we will be sharing recipes, juice shops and health spots, dreamy interiors, and stories of people gathering around the table. If you like the sound of all of this, you are in the right place! We want to say thank you to Julie Solomon for her passion and dedication to the vision of LSK, as well as Chase Jennings for his brilliant redesign of the site. Here's to the new year and this amazing journey! We are so thankful to have you along for the ride.
