A couple weeks ago, I had one of the biggest honors in my blogging life. Even though I’ve built a modest and growing following here on the blog and through social media, I still sometimes wonder who is reading and if you all enjoy the content I’m creating for you. It’s a big responsibility to […]
Two of the great loves in my life are shoes and travel. The problem is that most shoes are not designed to walk for literally miles a day over cobblestone streets and uneven pavement. You’ve read my travel posts so you know we squeeze a lot into a single day. But even though I want […]
Can we all just agree that adults need a spring break, too? And how did March pretty much come and go in a blink? On my mind a lot lately are pools, patios, cocktails, and sunshine. Not necessarily in that order (and I’d take just one of them right about now). On the other hand, […]
I have a secret. Ok, it’s not really a secret because I don’t care who knows. Here it is: I’m really cheap when it comes to my clothes. Pause for the slow clap… When I say cheap I should probably say “wallet friendly” and when I say clothes I’m talking about what goes on my […]
Let’s talk hats for a bit. Hat styles range widely, and I’m honestly not one to wear them that often. Other than the occasional baseball cap, the only other hat style I’m in is a straw hat by the pool. There was that one time as a kid that I wore a white straw hat […]
Last week I was in need of a mood booster and realized I hadn’t been to Target in ages. It’s pretty much the one store I can get lost in for a couple hours and come out feeling like a million bucks (and hoping I haven’t spent that). Just kidding. But you know the drill. […]
Hello, friends! How was your weekend? As usual, I’m sitting here wondering where the time goes between Friday and today. I swear the clocks plot against me on weekends, and with losing an hour due to daylight savings time, it really felt like a blur. But at least it was a really fun blur. We […]
The title of this blog post probably confuses you – Erin’s suggesting something other than wine?! It’s true that bringing a bottle of wine to a dinner party has been my go-to for ever. And I’m willing to bet that a lot of you have done the same thing. Why do we reach for a […]
I know what you’re thinking. It’s too early for a monthly Instagram roundup, Erin! But the truth is, the rest of the week we are traveling and by the time we get back February will by all intents and purposes come to a close. The exciting thing is that we are ending the month in […]
Hello, hello…as Valentine’s week comes to a close (we’re not celebrating officially until tomorrow), I thought I would round up a few of my favorite loves from around the web this week. But first, I want to talk about these bell bottom jeans from Urban Provisions, because [insert all the heart eyes]! When I first […]
Of all the fashionable animal prints, I think leopard is probably the most doable for the average woman. I consider myself in that class of well-dressed average ladies who can admire leopard print done on a large scale in the pages of Vogue, but my everyday lifestyle isn’t haute couture. I do look for subtle […]
I am pretty excited to share my closet tour with you all! This post has been a long time coming. I sent out a poll on Instagram stories to see if you’d be interested in a closet tour and you responded overwhelmingly with a yes. I was also surprised by how many of you wanted […]
I have to admit that when I considered buying a pair of OTK (over-the-knee) boots, I thought that I might be too old for them. Would I look like I’m trying too hard? Is this something that should be left for the under 30 crowd? My first recollection of OTK boots is from the movie […]
If you’ve been following me on Instagram, you know I’ve been working with James Avery as a brand ambassador. I was very excited when they reached out to me for this opportunity because James Avery artisan jewelry has been a part of my life since, well…for as long as I can remember. I wanted to […]
Paris is my favorite European city and I’m so happy to be returning for a third time. The Seine, those baguettes, French wine, ooh la la…(I’ve never heard an actual French person say ooh la la, by the way). I find inspiration in all things Parisian, but one thing I’m always studying is what Parisian […]
I’m pretty excited about this month’s edit because I love holiday parties, and I think it’s safe to say that the holidays are basically here. In a few days my husband and I are going to our first formal event this season, so to say I was inspired by feeling festive is an understatement. I […]
I thought it would be fun to share what I packed for Vegas last weekend! We looked forward to our little Fall weekend getaway for months, but planning what to pack for Fall in the desert can be a challenge (I mean you want to pack that “special” dress or fun outfit because, hello it’s […]
Happy Wednesday, peeps! Instagram Roundup 10.10.18 features some of my favorite photos from the past month as well as Fall outfit inspiration. You can shop my Instagram posts at any time at https://cathedralsandcafes.com/shop-my-instagram/ September was one of the busiest months work-wise, so jetting off to Vegas last weekend was just what we needed. I’ll have more […]
I have always loved earth tones. My closet is mostly moody tones of burgundy, green, gold, and brown. So, I was really pleased to see so many earth tones in fall collections everywhere. The boho style seems to have some real staying power too, which is something else I’m really happy about. Do you ever […]
