Well Hello

I’m Crissy

City girl married to a country boy and perfectly imperfect mom and wife.

Whether it’s attending the school’s PTA meeting, going fishing, or having an impromptu kitchen dance session, I believe it’s essential to stay a dedicated, fun, and fashionable mom. Here I share my experiences keeping up with the current trends, testing out the latest tech, renovating our forever home, and raising 3 kids without a manual. You can often find me cheering from the sidelines, focusing on the bright side, counting my blessings, and striving to raise well rounded kids who will make the world a better place!

The end of the year is always filled with events at school. I was totally blown away by our girl in the role of Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk. She took her role very seriously, rehearsing her lines and making sure she didn’t need to use her script. The entire class did such a fabulous job, it was a great way to close out first grade!

Today, I had the privilege to attend the Israel Day Parade in #NYC with the most amazing group of individuals who happen to be Holocaust Survivors. I heard their stories, and while listening to the details of the unfathomable, I watched faces full of pride and strength along with @melissaschapman  @thatrelatablejew @victoriasophianyc  @missstephanieb @fountainof30 @geaninecilenti & @rachelferrucci 

Holocaust survivors didn’t just survive the Holocaust, they built beautiful lives and created families who wouldn’t be with us today if they didn’t survive.

I met the incredible @samisteigmannspeaks, danced through the streets with sweet Khana (Anna), and witnessed an amazing community come together to celebrate the 75th Israel Day Parade. So grateful to share this day with an amazing group of people! As a promise to these survivors, I will continue to share their stories and #pledgetoremember .. I ask that you do too💙 #WeAreHere

I couldn’t resist @chubbies his and hers matching swim. These Classic Swim Trunks have been @jkbeamer favorite swimsuit thus far this season. I’m obsessed with my Floral Reef matching coverup because it compliments so many swim suit styles! These were just two of our many island life pieces, check my stories & click the Link in Bio to see all of the must-have pieces!

You know I have major anxiety when it comes to getting my hair done. For the first 23 years of my life, my stylist-mom did my hair, then once she stopped my stylist sister-in-law took over, whenever we visited. It’s a challenge having a long distance stylist, so I’ve been on the hunt for the last decade. 

Last week I went to see @joffrey_jara at @1eleven_salon and he completely blew my mind (and hair)! There’s a reason why he’s called #theblondeexpert! If you are looking for a NYC quality salon locally, you need to make your appointment NOW! Whether you want to freshen up a #summerblonde or need an all together change. He will work his magic!

Let’s talk motivation and accountability. I wanted an excuse to wear this @fab_forever_yoga_lifestyle crop top so I dragged myself to my personal training session. My bestie & trainer @katygomes_fitness kicked my butt & listened to me whine the entire time. 

My girlfriends & I have an accountability group which definitely pushes me to get my workout in! 

Find yourself women who push you to be better, listen to you whine, and love every step of your work in progress!

I’ve become obsessed with skin care & combating all of my sungoddess years. Eye masks are literally the perfect cheat sheet to working on your skin while still hitting the grind! 

If you checked out my Beauty Guide for Valentine’s Day, you know I’m an avid @graceandstella user! I pop these under eye masks on EVERYDAY while I’m getting the kids ready. They cool to reduce puffiness & dark circles while moisturizing! It’s literally the best way to kick off my day!
