I'm Lisa Kirk, a wife, mama, writer, and founder. Since 2010, Something Pretty has been home to my favorite memories, reflections, and inspirations. Thanks so much for reading!

After moving nine (going on ten!) times, years of travelling, and a semester abroad, I kind of consider myself an expert packer.

One line from The Devil Wears Prada that makes me laugh is when Meryl Streep says sarcastically, “Florals? For spring?

Do you ever see an outfit on someone that you want to copy exactly? That’s what happened to me when I saw Emily Schuman’s outfit in her Apartment Therapy feature. {Cupcakes and Cashmere} The casual blazer, pop-of-color top, rolled up boyfriend jeans, and fabulous shoes create a look that is right up my alley. I […]
