SPRING IS HERE!!!!!

Here in the great state of VA, it feels like Spring gets skipped over year after year. One day it is 40 degrees and the snow is melting, and the next week its in the 80s. Luckily, this year, we have actually been experiencing spring in all its glory. {Of course, suffering through the pollen too, but that’s another story} We have had our fair share of spring showers, but we also have had beautiful days in the 60s and 70s.

A Cathclaire Staple : HATS!

In honor of Catherine’s birthday today, I wanted to share some of my favorite photos of Cath and put a spotlight on her essential accessory: HATS.

Catherine has been wearing her signature hats for so long that I cannot remember when it began! They are so much of a staple for her that back when we used to be able to get out and about around town, people would recognize her because she was wearing a hat. From oversized black boater hats, to white options for spring and beyond, I have rounded up some hats to encourage you to try out her favorite styles.

Sephora Sale Picks!

Raise your hand if it makes you feel better everyday to put on make-up during quarantine!

If you haven’t heard yet, Sephora is having one of their big sales of the year! VIB Beauty members have been able to shop for days, but today the sale opens to Insiders. To be an insider, you basically just have to have an account set up.

We have noticed during quarantine that it feels so much better each day to wake up and do your make-up, even though most of us have to stay home right now! I rarely wear make-up on a daily basis, but even I have found this to be true. I wake up, cover up my dark circles with concealer, put on a little blush, mascara and lip color and feel 10000% better.

Everyday Style with Reb

This post first appeared on rebeccapiersol.me a month ago, but is even more relevant today than it was then!

I love sharing all of my quirky, fun, dressed up, and staged looks for you guys on here and over on my own site.  It gives me a space to be creative with my outfits and show y’all all sorts of fun possibilities.  However, I noticed that I shy away from sharing things that I actually wear on a daily basis.  Sure I’ve shared plenty of my favorite sweaters, jeans and other classic staples with you but this is different! If you follow me on IG or tiktok, you’ve probably seen a slew of my everyday looks and I think that this one is the most everyday of them all.

Quarantine Approved: Comfy Dresses

Oh, quarantine. You are truly a roller coaster. Some days we wake up ready to create, ready to be productive and get up, shower and put on makeup. Other days, we spend in our pajamas. BOTH ARE OKAY!!! Leisure sets are blowing up all of our feeds and tie-dye sets are everywhere. {I’m currently working on making my own and it’s not going exactly as planned lol} We love a good set, don’t get us wrong, but we also love a good dress alternative, especially now that the temps are getting warmer.

Sure, our spring is looking a little different this year, but like we have all been saying, life must go on! We must get dressed everyday. We must continue to create and we must continue to treat ourselves with the utmost care! This quarantine will end eventually and we will all get dressed up in our favorite pieces and hit the town. You want to be ready when the time comes right?

Our Favorite Binge-Worthy TV Shows

This post first appeared on Cathclaire & I added some of my faves onto Cath’s!

I’ve been thinking about doing a blog post about my favorite binge-worthy TV shows since I got pregnant because binge-ing TV had become a bigger part of my life staying in with my bump (baby Phoenix wink wink) for 10 months. In true cathclaire fashion – my baby is already here aka pregnancy is very much over – but now that we are all faced with extensive time indoors amidst all of this social distancing – I couldn’t put off publishing this any longer!

My taste in TV is admittedly not the best or most refined by any means. I don’t watch the tube often but when I do – I gravitate to uber girly shows and/or TV shows that make me feel good. Like really good. LOL. So, if this is your vibe – read on for my favorite binge-worthy TV shows worth watching during this time of social distancing and staying safe!

Our Favorite Candles to Brighten Your Days

Quarantine. Lock down. Shelter in Place. We may be past the “worst” of the pandemic but we are still spending more time in our homes than we are used to. If you are like us, this means you are burning WAY more candles than usual. In one of my group texts today we were all discussing our candle habits and sharing our favorite candles, which prompted me to write this blog post!!

As my good friend Tim said: “Everyone is working from home now so now is the perfect time to get into candles. Plus it can relieve some stress and anxiety that our world is experiencing.”

10 Tips for Making The Best of Your Time At Home

Before I started writing this post, I wondered if we were being flooded with similar posts in the news, on facebook, instagram and twitter and even texted Catherine asking if it was already played out. She said she didn’t think so and honestly, I am writing this for myself as much as for you guys! So far on our first 3 nights of staying inside, we have sat in front of the TV for hours. While, there’s nothing wrong with your daily dose of your favorite TV shows, I wanted to force myself to do other things with our evenings while we are battling the corona virus.

It is so easy to get sucked into the news about Covid-19 and feel like the world is ending. Don’t get me wrong, we need to stay informed, but it simply is not healthy for your mind to wander to all the wrong places. SO, here are a few ideas, in case you stumble on over here and find something new to add to your new routine.
