Classic Style Inspo

Is there anything better than something that’s easy AND stylish? That’s how I feel about a topknot. Once you know how to tie your hair up into an easy bun that looks so much more time-intensive than it actually is, you will look stylish in 2 minutes flat. We took this photo on vacation when I didn’t have time to style my hair. I threw my hair up in this bun, put on a fun pair of sunglasses, and bam - I looked put-together!


Things I’ve Been Loving: Tevas

Ever since having my son, I’ve had problems with my feet. These sandals have been a lifesaver! They have arch support, they are so light and comfortable, and they are waterproof which is great for those sudden rainstorms you aren’t expecting. I’ve fallen absolutely in love with these, and highly recommend them!

Why Cleanliness Is ACTUALLY Next To Godliness

Hello classic crew and happy Wednesday! Welcome to another edition of my newsletter. I hope your week is off to a great start, and that you’re enjoying the second episode of The Classically Abby Podcast! Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.

We spent the weekend with Jacob’s parents and had a lovely time. One thing I’m so grateful for is that Jacob’s mother always makes sure I’m pampered when I come to visit. She takes me out to lunch and we go shopping together, we get pedicures, sometimes I even get a massage. As a mom, I don’t always find the time or make the time to relax. But my mother-in-law always makes me feel special. If you haven’t found a moment to do something for yourself in a while, see if you can find someone who can help give you even just an hour of “me-time.” I think you’ll find that it fills your cup and will make you an even better wife and mother when you return to your family.

Mr. Baby is thriving! We had his nine-month check up and he’s doing so well. He’s hitting all of his milestones and he’s tall - 85th percentile! He’s getting more and more mobile which makes content creation and homemaking more and more difficult - but I wouldn’t change it for the world.

After returning from my in-law’s home on Monday, the house was a mess. I looked around at all of the things I had to unpack and sort through, at the clothes and the diapers and the toys and the wipes, and felt a shiver of panic. I tend to get overwhelmed when I see a big mess in front of me, and if I simply buckle down and attack the problem, the worry goes away. But until I find a moment to take care of it, sitting with the untidiness makes me feel unsettled.

Which got me to thinking: Why is cleanliness next to godliness?
