my ACOTAR reread has officially commenced and I can’t wait to be transported right back into Prythian 🦇🏔️💫

It’s been a looong time since a fantasy series had this much of a chokehold on me (this is coming from someone who hadn’t picked up a romantasy book since Twilight 😂) and I am counting down the days for the 6th book to come out in October

Who else is super excited after seeing the covers that Sarah J Maas shared yesterday!? I gotta hear all your theories on what we have in store for us 👇🏼

{PS: these pics were all taken from Pinterest}

I’ll take my coffee with a side of pumpkin cinnamon rolls, a frosty sunrise and the most beautiful mountain views

Our final fall cabin trip of the year is already off to a beautiful start 🤎🍁🏔️☕️

Pssst… after a two year hiatus, my Mindful Morning Planner is returning for 2027 💫🤎

When I first created this planner five years ago, my hope was to help you build a morning ritual that felt like a little gift to yourself. Just a few quiet moments to slow down, check in with how you’re feeling and set an intention for the day ahead

While my own mornings have changed quite a bit since becoming a mom, I’ve found myself craving those moments of stillness and connection with myself more than ever before

That’s the heart behind the 2027 planner too. Whether you’re looking to create a more mindful morning routine, bring more intention to your daily life, or simply carve out some moments of coziness, I hope this planner will meet you where you’re at

My Mindful Morning Newsletter subscribers will get early access this November AND an exclusive discount when it launches!

Just comment “planner” and I’ll send you the link to join!

I can’t wait to show you more very soon 🤎 taken in Denver, Colorado by @lifewithmelphillips

It’s pumpkin painting season and this is still one of my favorite cozy girl’s nights ideas! 🤎

Highly recommend heating up some mulled apple cider, gathering by a fire pit, turning on your favorite Halloween movie (mine is Hocus Pocus) and painting mini pumpkins together

Send this to a friend who would love to do this with you! 🎃

a cozy autumn morning where we didn’t set our alarms and slept in until 6:30am (the pre-parent version of me would be laughing so hard at this 😂)

waking up after 5:30am with a toddler is RARE, so to celebrate we had pumpkin cinnamon rolls and went on a little family walk to admire all the leaves changing in our neighborhood 🍁🍂

I hope you all are having a beautiful weekend!

Busy making the sweetest core memories while checking off all the activities on our autumn family bucket list 🍎

{ps: apple picking wasn’t available this year due to the drought but that didn’t stop us from buying apples from the farm store and spending a morning exploring the orchard}

#marriottbonvoypartner The best trips are the ones where you come back feeling better than when you left, and honestly, the reason why @Westin is my go-to is because I KNOW they always deliver!

Between the Westin Heavenly Beds, gorgeous spas, healthy menus and fitness options that make movement easy, they turn every trip into a mini self-care getaway

These are just a few highlights that live rent-free in my mind from some of my favorite stays at their properties in Sarasota, Monterrey, Oahu, Queens, and Washington DC

My husband and I are starting to plan out our trips for next year and can’t wait to share so many new travel adventures with Westin, but this time with our daughter by our side ❤️

As Marriott celebrates its 100th anniversary, it’s collecting memories like ours. Share yours through the link in my story! by @lifewithmelphillips

If pumpkin spice isn’t your cup of tea this autumn, I promise you need to switch things up and try this iced salted maple latte instead 🤎✨🍁

All you need:

✨ 2 shots espresso
✨ 1 cup milk of choice
✨ 1 spoonful TJs organic maple butter
✨ pinch of flaky sea salt
✨ ice

Combine maple butter and salt in hot espresso. Add ice and milk to a glass and pour your salty maple espresso on top!

Stir and enjoy! Let me know if you’ll be trying this 🍂 taken in Denver, Colorado by @lifewithmelphillips
