What it’s Like to Have a Miscarriage

Spilled espresso and everyday chaos? Not tonight. Spilled espresso and everyday chaos? Not tonight. Tonight, we do tulle and Tchaikovsky. 🩰✨

Took one of my favorite little sidekicks to see the @BostonBallet’s Sleeping Beauty, and the energy was absolutely electric. Watching her wait for Princess Aurora to take the stage—especially when she shares a name with her big sister—was pure, unfiltered magic.

There is something fiercely beautiful about slipping into a velvet theater seat and watching the world light up entirely through your kid’s eyes. It’s a sharp reminder that while motherhood is wonderfully wild, it’s also the greatest excuse to get dressed up, chase the sparkle, and live a little beautifully.

Never skimp on the magic, darlings. Put on the heels, grab your mini, and go book the tickets.  And use my code, FASHIONKATE45 to grab them for $45!🥂👑

Tell me—what was the ultimate fairy tale that had you captivated when you were little? Let’s hear it in the comments! 👇

How do you measure a perfect birthday? For Arielle How do you measure a perfect birthday? For Arielle, it starts with an exclusive VIP guest list. 🎈

She woke up to seven of her best stuffed friends (with her favorite lovie, Miso, front and center, obviously) waiting with balloons at her bedroom door. Naturally, this evolved into an impromptu plushie movie theater in mom and dad’s bed while she caught up on her YouTube queue.

After a quick cameo at school for a craft, I staged an early breakout for the truly important things in life: mini-golf and a highly curated, five-star lunch at McDonald’s. 🍟✨ We rounded out the afternoon doing what she loves most—a serious art supply haul, tackling some Lego builds, hitting the park, and tearing into presents. She also got to watch the first episode of season 2 of one of her favorite shows, @castleimpossible, while building the first of her @crunchlabs boxes which was her birthday gifts from us. She’s officially obsessed! 

But the absolute best part? The universe really showed up for her. The rose bush we dedicated to Nunny miraculously bloomed yesterday, and we spotted our very first butterfly of the season—Aunt Betty’s symbol. Feeling so incredibly lucky to have our angels looking out for my little ones. 🤍

The birthday marathon will carry on through the weekend, but the countdown continues: Aurora turns 3 in exactly 11 days!

Bring on the cake. 🥂✨

Seven years in 90 seconds. ✨ The beginning of my true purpose summed up in a minute and a half. 

To say she flipped my entire world upside down would be the understatement of the decade. 

Arielle, you’ve grown up in the absolute blink of an eye. While these little flashes of time show the highlights, they couldn’t possibly hold everything I want to express to the sweet, spirited soul who truly saved me.

You are my mini best friend, my ultimate adventure pal, and the absolute best big sister to Aurora. You have this undeniable, unapologetic magic about you—the kind of girl who literally turns the world on with her smile, bringing sparkle, a little bit of sass, and pure joy everywhere you go.

Motherhood is the wildest ride, but loving you is the most beautiful adventure I’ve ever been on. Here’s to the girl who made me a mama, who keeps me perfectly on my toes, and who makes every single day infinitely brighter.

Bring on the confetti (and maybe a champagne coupe for me 🥂)—we have a seven-year-old to celebrate!

Happy 7th Birthday, my darling Arielle. 🩷

Looking at these maternity photos, it’s wild to th Looking at these maternity photos, it’s wild to think about where my head was exactly seven years ago today. I knew what was coming tomorrow—the hospital bags were packed, the C-section was scheduled, and I knew I was finally going to hold my baby girl.

But what I didn’t know—what I couldn’t possibly understand until I was in it—was how much I was going to change. How in just 24 hours, my entire universe would flip on its axis.

I didn’t just meet my daughter the next day. I collided with a completely new version of myself. I learned that motherhood isn’t just a title you add to your resume; it becomes your entire essence. If I’m being completely unfiltered, there were times in those early days where I lost myself entirely—where I felt like I was drowning in the sheer weight of this new reality. But stepping into this era has been, hands down, the most rewarding role of my life.

Tomorrow, we celebrate Arielle turning seven. The sweet girl who made me a mom.

I already know the waterworks are coming, but I’m going to have to do some serious strategic blinking—she is my little empath, and if I start crying, we’ll both be a mess! 🥹

I wish I could bottle up this exact season. The one where she still thinks I’m the ultimate VIP guest and genuinely just wants to spend her birthday by my side. Since I can’t freeze time, I’m just going to soak up every single sparkly, emotional, beautiful second of it.

Happy birthday eve to my sweet Arielle. Let the celebrations begin. ✨🥂

There’s a palpable shift in the air this weekend, There’s a palpable shift in the air this weekend, and it’s not just the Memorial Day kickoff to summer or the school year winding down. It’s the realization that my first baby is turning seven this week.

Watching Arielle read to Aurora just hits differently today. We always joked that she was an old soul—a miniature version of our Nunny, her namesake (Marie is Arielle’s middle name) who passed in 2024 at 102 — but suddenly, my little girl is undeniably growing up. 

Every year around this time, the realization that time is stealing away another chapter knocks the breath right out of me.

I used to think my fast-paced NYC era was what defined and changed me the most. 

I was wrong. 

Trading that city grit for the absolute wild ride of motherhood was the ultimate plot twist, and she was my absolute game changer.

Motherhood is essentially walking around with your heart outside your body, watching it learn to read, evolve, and step fiercely into its own independence. 

It makes your chest swell with unimaginable pride and shatter just a little bit, all at the exact same time. It’s the most beautiful, brutal reminder that we are all just living on borrowed time.

So this weekend, I’m leaving the to-do list undone, pouring something sparkling, and squeezing every single drop out of this season with my little girls because, and for this is an Easter egg for one special guy who I hope will get this reference, I don’t wanna miss a thing. ✨🥂

Time-traveling to 1922 today. No passport required Time-traveling to 1922 today. No passport required, just my chicest sneakers and the stroller. ✈️✨

We just took the girls to the King Tut Experience @discoveringkingtut at The Saunders Castle at Park Plaza, and it was absolute magic. Since the original artifacts are permanently housed in Egypt and will never travel again, these dazzling, handcrafted replicas are literally the only way to experience this up close without booking a transatlantic flight to Cairo.

Stepping right into the shoes of Howard Carter and walking into the tomb was incredible, but here is the absolute Champagne Truth for my fellow mamas who want to do the cultured city things without the meltdowns:

✨ The Mama Notes:

The Sweet Spot: The whole experience takes about 35–45 minutes. That is the exact, golden window for toddler attention spans.

The Logistics: It is completely stroller-friendly. You can glide right through the history of the Boy King without breaking a sweat.

The Vibe: All ages are welcome, and the glowing, moody lighting keeps the kids totally mesmerized.

You can soak up a little culture, marvel at ancient treasures, and still make it to brunch looking fabulous. We love a high-low weekend moment. 🥂
