    Chic and Elevated Places to Buy Maternity Clothes

    March 5, 2020

    One morning as I was getting dressed to take my kids to preschool, it occurred to me how my style has ebbed and flowed over the past few years, changing slightly with each life transition. With all these style adaptations, a few things have remained constant, my quest for chic and elevated quality clothing that lasts. Regardless of the role I was inhabiting, I gravitated towards chic and elevated neutral pieces (black, beige, grey) that fit really well.

    The Sunday Edit // 3.1.20

    March 1, 2020

    I’m 35 weeks pregnant and quickly approaching my due date. It’s so surreal to me that our lives are about to change again and we’re bringing a new baby into our world. I can’t wait to meet him or her and finally find out the gender! In other news, this weekend we’re celebrating my mom’s leap year birthday and my mother-in-law’s birthday so we’ll be surrounded by love and family. Once the baby comes, we’ll be in hibernation mode so it’s been fun going to birthdays and other events every weekend in anticipation of a stretch of home days. Have a wonderful week and happy Sunday!Β

    What to Wear in the Third Trimester

    February 25, 2020

    I’m still in denial that I’m in the third trimester. Feeling and seeing how my body has changed from week to week has been so special. We all have our insecurities but I never feel as confident and beautiful as I do when I’m pregnant. It’s truly amazing what a woman’s body can do. Feeling my baby glide across my stomach and watching the look on Perry and Dylan’s eyes as they feel their little sibling kick is of one of the greatest moments I have ever experienced. I think it makes

    Another Sunday Edit for you guys! This weekend, we celebrated my sister-in-law’s birthday on Friday night (with rock climbing) and went axe-throwing (so pregnancy-friendly, I know) for a friend’s birthday on Saturday. I didn’t participate in either of the activities but was happy to play photographer for the night. I’m continuing my home projects and […]

    January Reading List

    February 21, 2020

    I had a long list of books planned for the January reading list Β but was able to get through four of them. I pushed some of them to February so those are coming soon but in the meantime, here are reviews for the books I finished. This month was a great mix of fun, emotional, and business-centered books. I started with Nora Ephron’s, I Remember Nothing, which I’ve wanted to read for a long time and knew would be wonderful. I love a collection of essays and this book did not disappoint.Β Braving the Wilderness is so timely and touches about so many things I think about as a parent and human being regarding belonging, bullying, vulnerability and so much more.

    Meet Tanya

    Hi, I'm Tanya, a freelance writer, pharmacist, content creator and mama. Here you’ll find my musings on personal style, raising three kids in the city, and finding MAGIC in the most unremarkable everyday life moments.

    When I’m not writing, you can likely find me at the playground with my children, testing the latest skincare treatment, reading two books at a time or browsing for a good deal. I am so happy you’re here.

    I’m excited to introduce you to Before You Know I’m excited to introduce you to Before You Know It, a newsletter about traveling with kids. Ever since we took our first family trip when my daughter was six months old, I fell in love with traveling with my little family. Everything feels new and exciting through a child’s eyes. When we travel together, I feel like I’m seeing the world with fresh eyes, too.

If you’ve ever planned a trip with kids, you know the excitement, and the chaos that can come with it. My goal with this newsletter is to make travel with kids feel not only possible, but magical, through honest storytelling, well-researched tips, and a stylish lens.

Before You Know It is the newsletter I want hitting my inbox every week, filled with tangible travel diaries, real how-to guides for flying with kids without losing your sanity, what’s worth your time and what you can skip, along with all the things I’ve learned along the way. 

Coming soon: a Barcelona and Costa Brava family friendly travel diary, a road trip to Maine, and how to spend a weekend in Philadelphia (the list I send to my friends!). I hope you’ll join me for the journey. Link in stories. πŸ’•

    I can’t even begin to explain the magic of havin I can’t even begin to explain the magic of having two days of 1 on 1 time with my daughter. We loved our weekend away together and still talk about it weeks later. 

The one thing I keep coming back to is floating in the pool, eating fries and listening to her tell me all the things on her mind. I loved every minute of it. 😍

    I remember you on the beach in your Sunshine Girl I remember you on the beach in your Sunshine Girl swimsuit. The little plant favors at your 1st birthday party with a sign that you’re growing up. You kissing my belly when I was pregnant with your brother. Dropping you off at school and you running back for one more hug. Laying in bed with you at night while you tell me everything on your mind. I remember you asking me to watch you brush your teeth so we can spend a few more minutes together before you go to sleep. Dressing up in tutus and playing tea party. Running through the splash pad at Dilworth Park. You laughing fearlessly on the swing carousel ride. The smile on your face when I would surprise you with croissants after ballet class. I remember when you told everyone at your 5th birthday party that you wanted to be a mommy when you grow up. I remember the rides home from school and hearing about your best and worst parts. 

You are a dream come true. As I look through these photos and cry because you’re growing up fast, only one thought comes to mind - how much love and laughter you have brought into our lives. You’ll always be our sunshine girl and I love being your mama. Happy 9th birthday! 🀩
