Motherhood, but I’m still Dani 🪩

Hi 👋🏼 I’m Dani and I contain multitudes 😂💗

Mom. Wife. Full-time working girl. ✈️ Traveler. 💡 Chronic finder of helpful sh*t. 🪩 Disco ball enthusiast.

I’m also VERY into the idea that motherhood can make your life bigger — not smaller. You can adore being someone’s mom and still invest in the woman you are becoming.

So yes, I’ll be taking the girls’ trip. And the family trip. And probably sharing all the scoop that made planning both easier. 😂✈️

Glad you’re here. 💚

Dopamine dressing, but make it practical. 🌈😂✨

Wear the colors. Add the cute ass necklace. Mix the prints. Put on the outfit that makes absolute sense to YOU and makes you happy.

Apparently getting dressed can boost your mood AND distract from your pimple patches. 💅🏼

Science? Debatable.
Effective? Absolutely.

Consider this your sign to wear the fun thing. 💚🌼 pimple patches are from @herocosmetics my favorite! I get the invisible ones for day and the original for overnight

✨ Ever find something online and wish you knew where else to buy it?

This is one of my favorite Google Lens tricks. 👀

Instead of hunting through websites or hoping someone linked it, just use Google Lens in Chrome to search the image.

You’ll instantly find:
💚 The exact item
💚 Similar styles
💚 Better prices
💚 Secondhand listings
💚 Other retailers

I’ve found some of my favorite pieces this way (and saved money, too 😏).

📌 Save this one for the next time you see something you have to have!

👇 What’s the last thing you screenshotted because you wanted to buy it?

💚 Consider me your internet friend who finds the shortcuts.

Basic Adidas + a basket of Sharpies + one overly confident mom sitting on her bed one afternoon with a sick kiddo 😂🎨👟

I had this idea to turn a plain pair of @adidas into custom sneakers for my little dude using @sharpie Creative Markers — and less than an afternoon later, HERE WE ARE!! 

I covered them in some of his favorite foods: pickles, blueberries, pasta, cherries, tomatoes, grapes, strawberries, lollipops, edamame, lemons, cucumber, shrimp, apples, chocolate and more 🍓🍋🍇🍫

Are they professionally customized? Nope. But I designed & created it!
Are they perfectly imperfect and made specifically for him? YES 🥹

And honestly, making something with my hands just because I had an idea and wanted to see if I could pull it off? 10/10 dopamine. 🌈

Your internet girlfriend’s helpful hint: sometimes the craft really is just buy the markers and see what happens 💅🏼
I’ll report back once I seal them!!

Okay, what should I draw if I make another pair?! 👀

My version of a Sunday reset: productive-ish yet multi-tasking 😂🧺📺

I’ve figured out that if I’m going to catch up on laundry, I might as well put on some Bravo and trick myself into thinking I’m relaxing at the same time 💅🏼

Wash the laundry.
Watch the Housewives.
Hang the laundry.
Fresh sheets on the bed.
Feel wildly accomplished.

And then wait for the summer bedspread to finish drying because my son unfortunately PUKED ON THE BED THIS MORNING 🫠😂 Motherhood really knows how to keep a reset humble.

Anyway, this is one of my favorite little multitasking hacks because chores are approximately 87% less offensive when there’s Bravo involved.

What’s your “I need to get shit done” background show?! 👀

My current Trader Joe’s chai hack ☕️✨

Consider this your latest installment of Dani Will Help: helpful sh*t that also happens to save you money 💌💅🏼

I buy their Spiced Chai Tea Concentrate + either the Vanilla Almond Spiced Chai Protein Smoothie or Banana Almond Butter Protein Smoothie because they’re made with pea protein 💪🏼

Over ice:
✨ equal parts chai concentrate + protein smoothie
✨ top with regular oat milk
✨ stir & enjoy

And the sneaky best part? I can get at least FOUR drinks out of one bottle of protein smoothie + one bottle of chai concentrate which is under $10 for the 2, my local cafe charges $6-$8 each and aren’t as tasty 🙌🏼 So she’s delicious, has some extra protein AND is a bargain.

Your internet girlfriend loves a life hack, but she loves a money-saving life hack even more 😂💌

Save this for your next Trader Joe’s run! If you can’t find the chai, or the protein shakes @drinkkoia makes yummy protein options too. And @rishitea makes delish chai concentrate

A little love letter to every version of me 💌

The little girl with the pink sunglasses. The woman who found her person. The one who became a mom. And the one who stepped WAY outside her comfort zone to try something completely new.

At some point I decided: fuck it. Maybe it works, maybe it doesn’t. And taking that chance taught me more about myself than playing it safe ever could have.

I don’t want to go backward and find an old version of myself. I want to keep meeting the new ones. 💗✨

Here’s to every chapter that got us here — and all the ones still waiting to be written.

What chapter are you in right now? 💌

self love motherhood, starting again, finding yourself, personal growth, stepping outside your comfort zone, trying something new, becoming yourself, everyday whimsy

Neutrals, as a dopamine dresser 🌈 — EP. 02

Today’s neutral: @agjeans denim 👖

Starting with a perfectly reasonable pair of jeans and then… well… doing what I do 🪩😂

Because wearing neutrals doesn’t mean you have to dress neutral. Give me a polka dot, an @adidas Mary Jane, some jewelry and approximately three seconds and I’ll take care of the rest 💅🏼 hand me my bottega and we are golden ✨

Turns out, I needed a little spark back too 💗✨

One of the reasons I started this page was because I wanted somewhere to be creative again. Somewhere to play, make things, share the random shit in my brain; and it has evolved from there. I got over my fear of being in front of the camera and now I get to show up, get dressed up, be helpful, be ridiculous… and just express myself. Especially becoming a mom.

I love being a mom. Deeply. But I also really love being Dani.

And I think that’s become such a big part of what self-love motherhood means to me — not trying to find the person I was before becoming a mom, but continuing to discover who I am alongside it.

This silly little corner of the internet has given me a place to do that. To create just because it feels good. To follow an idea because it makes my brain light up. To remind myself that the things that make me me still deserve time and space too.

Maybe that’s the spark. ✨

And if you’ve been waiting for a reason to make something, wear something, try something, or pick back up a piece of yourself you’ve been missing…

you’re a spark in the dark too 💗

Okay, in my defense… the secondhand gods were in my favor BIG TIME 😂 I realize there are several moments in this story where a reasonable person might have made a different choice. I was not that person ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

And before you judge me, I legit got it for an amazing deal. Literally was not even on my bingo card!

Anyway, PLEASE LET ME EXPLAIN MYSELF 😂

Now that you’ve heard my case:
are you on my side or absolutely not? 👀

Because I feel like this one could divide the group chat.

AND GO @dodgers!!

Okay, no cheating 👀

Pause or screenshot this Reel and tell me which one you landed on 😂✨

I’m choosing to believe the universe, the algorithm, and my questionable editing skills have conspired to give you exactly the one you needed today 💅🏼

Did yours feel weirdly accurate… or should we demand a redo? 😂

DROP YOURS BELOW 👇🏼

And if you screenshot it, I wanna see it 👀💌

Book club, but make it yacht club appropriate 📚⚓️💅🏼

My book club read Theo of Golden this month 💛 and this month’s meet up was at a yacht club for brunch, where the dress code doesn’t allow sleeveless dresses or tops, which meant I had to get a little more conservative than usual…

But nobody said conservative had to mean boring 🪩💅🏼

So I followed the dress code, threw my own colorful little spin on it, and headed off to talk books with the girls 📚✨

Yacht club appropriate? ✔️
Still very much Dani? ✔️
Also got to wear my shell sandals from @larroude which I haven’t worn since Italy last year! ✔️✔️

And if you’ve read Theo of Golden, I NEED to know what you thought 👀💛

- and a special little cameo from my sweet pup Oslo
