It’s not often that I share life updates here on the blog, but I really wanted to share this: my husband has been working really hard training for his first marathon - he’ll be running the New York City Marathon on November 1 on behalf of Children’s Hospital of Boston, which was ranked by US News and World Report as the #1 pediatric hospital in the country. I couldn’t be more excited or proud about this news or for him for his commitment: he is up to 20 miles and loving it. I’d say he’s “in it to win it!”

I’ll most certainly be there to cheer him on, but in the meantime I am helping him fundraise (and cooking a LOT to keep up with his metabolism). This weekend I hosted a Stella & Dot trunk show, the proceeds from which will all be donated toward Eric’s efforts and the hospital’s Miles for Miracles program. If you love jewelry, bags, and scarves as much as I do, Stella & Dot is definitely worth checking out! You can participate in this fundraiser through September 12 by clicking the “Shop Online Now” button here!

In the meantime, here’s a peek at some of the latest items from their Fall collection! If you have any questions, please let me know. Or if you’d like to learn more about Eric’s efforts and the Boston Children’s Hospital program, please click here. Thanks very much for your consideration!
