Today (okay, maybe tomorrow) finally feels like a redo after a blah week and a half, and all I need is a:

1. A perfect iced latte
2. The perfect planner (obviously @thedaydesigner)
3. A perfect stack of spring magazines

2025 Daily Planner: Classic Black Pebble Texture | Day Designer

Getting a jump start on thinking through goals for 2026 and what that year is going to look like, so it was the perfect time to pick up next year’s @thedaydesigner planner. #sponsored

I’ve opted for the pebble black planner the last two years, which does, in fact, sell out because it’s so sophisticated. I use every bit of this planner, from the monthly view to the daily view (an entire page!) with its schedule that goes from 5 AM to 9 PM, top three priority section, to-do list, notes, and more. Every inch of that page gets used as I’m organizing my day.

Code heatherbien15 will save you 15% on all @thedaydesigner planners this fall (get yours ahead of the new year!).

‘Tis the season for frolicking through fields (and checking for ticks).

This white eyelet dress is yet another pretty all-cotton piece from @fewmoda, and the cutout in the front is the perfect surprise moment 🤍

MVP of my March wardrobe goes to this @fewmoda top, which has convinced me sweetheart necklines should be the only necklines.

I’m currently flipping through the well-worn pages of my cookbooks, scribbling down notes on a hotel notepad (one of the amenities I *always* take from a memorable stay), and finalizing recipes for my next dinner party. Which means it’s a fitting time to share a few of my favorite cookbooks to crack open when I’m hosting...

• Crabtree & Evelyn Cookbook: This is the most charming illustrated cookbook that I found in a Little Free Library a few years ago. It’s out of print, from the 80s, but the menus are just as relevant today, and the book itself has the most delightful cottage-inspired vibes.

• Julia Reed’s South: I’d love to have a reputation for throwing the most spirited of parties, so it only makes sense I would come back to Julia Reed’s cookbooks again and again. The stories and the imagery are as good as the recipes — I swear I’ve looked at the pages dedicated to her Christmas party more times than I can count.

• Ina Garten Cooking for Jeffrey: Can’t you just hear Ina’s voice as you say the title, Cooking for Jeffrey? Shockingly, this is the only Barefoot Contessa cookbook I own, but it’s full of simple, delicious classics.

• The Southern Living Cookbook: I have a funny story, which I won’t tell here, but it’s reminiscent of the Father of the Bride blender scene. Regardless of my initial reaction, however, this is possibly my most-used cookbook, with over fifteen years of dog-ears across its 500 pages.

• The Southerner’s Cookbook: Y’all know I’ll take anything Garden & Gun publishes as Bible, and this cookbook is no exception. Unfortunately, it’s at the river, but that’s where it should be — if you’ve stayed at the cottage, you know I’ll flip open this cookbook and make biscuits at least one morning.

Finally settled on my word of the year, three weeks in: cultivate. It seems to encompass everything I’m hoping for in 2025… cultivating a flourishing, focused business, cultivating a home I’m happier with, cultivating a schedule with more room to breathe, and so on. And I wrote it down right at the front of my @thedaydesigner to make sure I stay aligned towards that goal.

I recently talked about why I love @thedaydesigner on my blog and included my code, heatherbien15, which will save you 15% on any purchase from the Day Designer, including notebooks, padfolios, etc.

Cue this cozy holiday outfit on repeat 💙 (and it’s 20% off this weekend) #ad

If you prefer a cotton sweater over wool, this @frankandeileen Montecito sweater is a must. I’ve worn it no less than three times in the past week 🙈 The jeans and flannel are also wear again and again pieces.

The triple fleece, 100% cotton travel sets from @frankandeileen are my go-to for WFH, travel, and hanging around the house from fall through spring.

The Aspen Travel Set is one of my favorites, and the all-white is so incredibly chic (you can find a full review of a few of the travel sets on my blog!).

#LTKSeasonal

You know a sweater is good when you wear it twice in a weekend. This cotton sweater is the perfect fall weight, and it keeps its shape beautifully.

It’s dyed in Italy, crafted in California, and it has the most perfect East Coast fall look (though I know I’ll also wear it all spring with white jeans!).

#LTKSeasonal

I wore the Isabelle sweatshirt dress way too many times last winter, and I was SO excited to see @frankandeileen released a shorter version this year.

I chose the Evergreen color, which I’m going to wear all holiday season long. With tights and a tartan scarf, this is exactly what I want for cozy celebrations where I still look pulled together.

Our primary bathroom is 5x8. It’s a standard rowhouse size, but small by the standards we seem to see here on Instagram. For months, I’ve felt like certain things were not coming together in here. It was mostly done, but didn’t feel DONE. So I’ve started to add in more of the little details, one of which is switching from white towels to these plush dot Turkish towels from @theloomia. They echo the tile, and feel more like a statement than plain white. They stand out against the white wainscoting without competing with the wallpaper. The cool tones are also just right.

I still have more details to add, but this is already a step in the right direction ✨

The best fall dress and boots 🍂

I inherited these brass candle holders from my great aunt, and, when I saw they had a clear mark on them, I decided to look it up. I found the same exact ones on several vintage sites — some are a steal, some are absurdly expensive. Take your pick!

I’ve been informed that, no, white jeans do not count as wearing wide leg, so, here I am, continuing to resist jean trends over here 💁‍♀️
