Living over 6 years ago by Liz Adams

Welcome to Hello Adams Family

Hi friends! Welcome to Hello Adams Family!
I am so happy that you’re here!

I’m Liz Adams and this is my family. My husband Dave, Charlie (3) and Jack (1) and our 9 year old chocolate lab, Webster. We live in the suburbs of Chicago and are currently in the thick of parenting – ha! Life is hectic and beautiful and I’m so excited to share this new space with you.

After blogging for 7 years at Sequins & Stripes, it was time for a change. When I started my blog in 2011 it was focused on personal style and fashion. Fast forward 7 years and my life has changed greatly. You have seen me get married, have Charlie, find out I was pregnant again, then Jack came along, then we moved to the suburbs and here we are. Now my days are filled with loads of laundry and two crazy babes – definitely not sequins or stripes. The future of my business no longer centers around me, but my entire family. Hello Adams Family is a new beginning, a more in-depth look at our lives and a place to share more!

A small pit in my stomach forms when I think about all that Sequins & Stripes has brought me. More than I could have dreamed of in all honesty. I’ll carry those seven years with me into this next chapter so know that what you saw there will be the same here! Just a more user friendly experience, fresh content ideas and a larger focus on family. I am so excited to see where this new space takes us and for all that is to come!

GIVEAWAY CLOSED!

To celebrate this new beginning I want to personally giveaway TEN $100 Visa gift cards to TEN readers/followers to help in your holiday shopping! All you have to do is comment on this blog post and tell me what you think of the new site! TEN readers will be selected at random and announced on Friday morning. Good luck!!

Take a minute and explore the site. There is so much to see! My hope is that you are able to see the posts that you missed more easily, find what you’re looking for more quickly and just have a better experience. I’d love to hear your thoughts and opinions in the comments!

As always, thank you for your continued support and love for me and my family. It truly means the world to us!

PS: A HUGE thank you to my beautiful friend, Hanna Seabrook, for making all of my website dreams come true. We have worked together for 5+ years and I am so grateful for her friendship and incredible talents.

  156. Honestly I love it! I started following you pre babies (when I had just moved back to MI from Chicago) and then stopped when it became more sequins and I was more solids? Ha! Now that you’ve focused more on family and parenting and life I’ve started following you again – I can relate with my two littles. Love the community of ladies you’ve formed on this site. Love the new look and feel of this and think it’s a perfect rebranding! Congrats and continued good wishes to you and your family.

  185. Ah, congrats! The site is gorgeous! I’ve followed along for maybe like 5 years (!!) and I honestly feel like I know you and your family. Thanks for being so honest and real with us on Instagram and in the blogging world!

  207. I’m so happy for you and your little family. The change makes so much sense and I love following along with you, the kiddos, and your hubby. I do wish I saw more of Webster though 😂. I’m a sucker for a dog. Congratulations and I can’t wait to see more from you all. ❤️

  208. Omg love the new sight! Your family is precious and I love that you share it with us. Especially on cooking with Liz 😉 congrats and cheers!

  214. Wow! I love it, Liz! Great website and a long time follower who has been wanting more family content. So glad you did this and can’t wait to see where you take it. Good luck & check out my blog too: twomidwestmamas.com! Xo

  216. So beautiful, Liz!! I’ve been following you for years and as a Mom of littles I’ve continued to love your blog! Looking forward to following your journey on your new site- love the layout & the name!

  217. I just got teary-eyed reading the Hello Adams Family introduction! Thanks for keeping true to yourself and remaining authentic as your life ebbs and flows! It is truly delightful!
    xoxo

  218. I LOVE the new site! It is a perfect focus on where I am in my own life. I can’t wait to see all the new content.

  219. I have followed you since I was in college, and feel like part of your family! You are one of the only bloggers I still follow after all these years because you continue to be authentic, genuine, and kind. Your focus on family and the way you love your boys is so inspiring! I am a stay-at-home mom and I am so encouraged by house you’re raising your family AND pursuing your dreams. Your boys will be men one day who know how to support and encourage women to dream big and go for it. We need more men like that, and I’m thankful you’re raising two of them for us to see! Thank you for sharing your life with us and being an inspiration.

  220. I love the new blog Liz! I love seeing your little family and how you guys manage life with young kids! Congratulations on this new chapter!

  221. I love the new blog. It looks so clean and so easy to read and find all the older content which it is very important to me. So excited to see the next chapter on your blog. Thanks for always sharing your family with us!

  222. So excited you’re doing this! Jack and Charlie posts are my favorite, having a 0 and 2 year old myself. The site looks great- I can’t wait to read this and the sequins and stripes posts!

  223. I just got teary-eyed reading the Hello Adams Family introduction! Thanks for keeping true to yourself and remaining authentic as your life ebbs and flows! It is truly delightful!
    xoxo

  224. Love the new site and how easy it is to find linked products! I was hoping to find Charlie and Jack’s sweaters from your family photos and the new website made it that much easier. Thanks!

  225. I love it! Started following around your wedding…we got married in Chicago the next year. It’s so great to see your site and business move along in life as you do! Love following to stock up useful tips for life after wedding (aka kids and suburbs)

  226. I absolutely love this idea and the family pictures are beautiful and a great way to relaunch your site! As a fellow Chicago suburb-er, it’s so fun to see what you and your family are up to. Can’t wait to continue following and see what great things are to come! Xo

  227. I love the new look! I have two boys the same age as yours (a 3 yr Charlie, too!) so watching you grow as a family has been my favorite part. Always look forward to anything you post- from fashion to steaming upholstery. 🙂 congrats!

  228. Very cute and more representative of your content! I’ve been following s&s for a few years for the styling tips but love that it’s more of an overall lifestyle blog now! Congratulations!

    P.S. it could be because I’m on my phone but some of the links in the menu are not redirecting to that page?

  229. You and your family are adorable! I started following you around a year ago and love what a great mom you are! Happy holidays to you and your entire family ! Do

  230. I’ve been following you for awhile and also have made the transition from single and working to married with kids. I appreciate the evolution of your blog! Love the update!

  231. Yay! It’s so pretty & exciting! Been following for a long time, kinda exciting to continue to follow along and evolve in this new chapter. Thank you for being you & for sharing your life with us. It’s been fun!

  232. Love the new site! I started following you earlier this year and can relate so well to being in the thick of parenting (2 boys, 3 and almost 2 here). It’s refreshing to see another mom share the parenting/life tips, but also have posts where you still have you own identity- something so easily lost when you become a mom!

    Congrats on the new site, I love it!!

  233. Love it and love following your family’s adventures, big and small! As a mom to three little boys I really enjoy your blog and watching you embrace the daily chaos with such grace and realness. Very grateful for all you share in this space 💓

  234. Love the new site, Liz! The simplicity of the branding is so refreshing. Can’t wait to follow along in this new chapter!

    Ps, hope you’re feeling better 🙂

  235. Love the new site! It’s a great way to show this new chapter of your life without losing the chic aesthetic of the brand you’ve built along the way. Cheers to you!

  236. Love the new look! It’s been so fun following your family. You’ve gone from the sequins and stripes to ROCKING the mom thing in such a fashionable and classy way with being real. Much love ❤️

  237. I’m excited to see where this new journey takes you! I would also love more of your tips for suburb living – best restaurants, shops, bars, day trips, wineries, events, etc.! I am a city dweller right now, but I am itching for more space and being closer to work!

    xoxo
    Christine

  238. Congratulations! As a mom to a 18 month old and baby #2 due in February, I’m so excited to explore your recommendations and parenting tips!!

  239. I love it! My life also used to be more sequins, And 8 weeks after my second baby, it’s more family. Thanks for changing and growing with us!

  240. Congrats on the launch of the new website! It’s beautiful and can’t want to see what’s next for you and your family!

  243. Love the new site and the new feel! You have such a beautiful family and it’s fun to follow along with you. Some bloggers seem a little out of touch not down to earth but I have never gotten that feeling from you. You have stayed humble and down to earth. I love the real ness in your blogs and instagram posts. Can’t wait to continue to follow along in this new path!

  244. Love the new site! Even though I am not yet a mother, I think it’s great that you make living your ~best life~ so relatable and transparent to everyone. I’ve been following for a few years now, and I’m looking forward to seeing how you and your family’s brand grows! <3

  245. I love the revamped site! I feel it is so crucial for influencers to portray their lives as they are in the present. I love how you’ve incorporated your family, it creates an even more intimate feel where I can feel connected! Thank you!

  246. The new site is great!! And your family photos are to die for. I am totally here for this change even though I am not married or a mama! Congrats Adams family 💓

  247. Fresh. Raw. Real. That is life and you are doing it beautifully ❤️ Thanks for being an inspiration, I live not far from Chicago and admire you.. I also have two boys (21 months and 5 months). Love the new edition of your blog!

  248. Congratulations, Liz!!! I’ve been following along for many years (you’re actually the first blogger I started seriously following), and I’m thrilled to learn more about this next stage of your journey. The new website looks beautiful, and it’s so exciting that it feels like a better reflection of your life now. Once again, congratulations to your and the rest of the Adams Family. I’m excited to keep learning from you in this next phase of your career.

  256. Love the new name! I started following you a couple years back because I loved your fashion, but really I loved how real you were/are! I love seeing your day to day mom life and any tips you have for being a mom, as I am now pregnant with my first!

  257. Congratulations Liz! The new site looks great 🙂 I have been following you for years and have experienced many of the same big life changes around the same time as you. It is so refreshing to see your laid back take on it all. Looking forward to your next chapter and posts 🙂

I just had friends visiting from out of town and used your Chicago travel guides for recommendations of fun things to do in the city!!! And of course outfit inspo – cause it’s not everyday I actually get to wear something other than leggings and sweatshirts 😂

  266. This is amazing and I’m so happy to see your new space! It’s amazing how much can change in 7 years and you’re embracing it. It’s been so fun to watch your family grow and as readers we have enjoyed your honest portrayal of it. Keep at it and congratulations!!!

  275. Love the new site! I have two boys (1 and 3) and will be able to catch up on any content I miss here so easily 🙂

  276. This new site perfectly fits you! It’s the reason I follow you. I look forward to all the post for the entire family!

  277. Liz, I just recently followed you a few months ago so I have not been on this journey with you for the past 7 years! But I absolutely LOVE this new website!! It looks amazing and with your life changing I think it is so fitting!! I am so excited to continue following you and seeing more amazing content!!

  278. Absolutely love this new direction! Your kind, authentic voice is one of the many reasons I’m a follower, and I’m so excited to where this new blog takes you!

  279. OG reader! I just so happened to get married a few months after you, have my first (also jack) a few months after Charlie, move out of Chicago for my husband’s job right when y’all moved to the burbs, and my second is now 7 months old. Obviously we are total strangers but reading your blog/IG has been like having a close friend to share the ride (particularly since not many of my friends have kids). Your authenticity, sense of humor, passion and artistic eye make that have made you such a success will follow you with this official shift of focus. You could probably blog about tax law and I would still follow along. -end of fan girl memo. Congratulations on the new name!

  280. I love this! I have been a follower of Sequins and Stripes almost since the beginning and feel like I have grown with you… also getting married, having 2 boys in similar age,a dog and living in Chicago. It’s nice to be able to read content that I can relate to! Thanks for keeping it real, Liz!

  281. Love this rebrand! The timing feels perfect for you and your joy is contagious. I look forward to continue following along with your cute family!

  282. Love the new update! Excited to follow along on through this new chapter as well as easily navigate through old content.

  283. So happy for you! Love the direction that you went in! I love how brutally honest you are about motherhood and share the wonderful moments and also the hard moments. I have loved following S&S and look forward to the new direction! ❤️

  284. Yes girl! Out with the old and in with the new, I’m loving this new look. Hope you are feeling better- food poisoning is the WORST.

  285. I’ve always loved following along with your blog and your family, but as a new mom I have frequently searched your archives for pregnancy/parenting posts. I’m so looking forward to more of that content. You make REAL motherhood so relatable!! Xoxo

  286. Love the new focus! I’m the same age and have also transitioned from Chicago city life to married-with-children suburb life (and, while I still like clothing…it’s just not the same priority!). Wishing the new site all the. best!

  287. Love it Liz! I’m a Chicago mom of 2, close in age to yours, so love reading about your cute fam and home. We just bought an older one too in the northwest corner of the city. Love following along with you!

  372. Love the new site Liz! I’ve always appreciated your honesty when it comes to the isolation of a new baby after Jack (even though it’s so exciting), the realness of the chaos with 2 kids, all while focusing on the importance of time with Dave and self care. I don’t have kids yet but you are inspiring to me! I’ve unfollowed a LOT of bloggers over the years when the comparison game became too much, but thank you for being so genuine. You’re one of my all time favorites!

  373. So happy for you Liz!! This is so exciting. I’ve been a follower since you and Dave were engaged and I have loved following along all these years and watching your family grow!

  452. Love this new website!!! I absolutely adore following along with your family on Instagram and everything you are as a mom! This website feels like pure Happiness ❤️

  453. congratulations on the new blog – it’s gorgeous! everything about it is as authentic and real as you are, and i love that. looking forward to all of the content to come!

  454. Absolutely obsessed with the new site and name! As my husband and I are transitioning into a season of hopefully starting a family, it’s refreshing to see your shift in focus, while still remaining relevant to the girl who isn’t there yet, or maybe never will be. Keep up the great work!

  455. I’ve been following sequins and strips for a while now and it’s been so cool seeing your family grow! The boys are so cute😍 I love that you’re changing this to a family blog and I’ll be sure to continue to follow along.

  456. Congratulations on your new site! It looks great and is easy to navigate. Also, good on you for embracing change in your life. As the mother of two college students and a high school sophomore, I can testify that change is constant when you are a parent. I’m looking forward to seeing the new content.

  457. I love the new website! I think the family blog fits you more than just style and fashion- and myself as well! You’re so relatable- thanks for sharing!

  458. This site is amazing! I am so happy for you and you are by far one of my favorite bloggers to follow for fashion,
    Family and recipes! I am so excited to see what this site brings you and your family!

  459. Congrats Liz! I’ve been following for years and I’m currently in the same stage of life as you. My oldest is 2.5 and my second just turned 1! I think this is a wonderful transition and I can’t wait to keep following along!

  460. Congratulations on your new site! It looks great! As a new mom, I’m excited that you’re focusing more on family-related content 🙂

  461. LOVE the new site and concept!! Being in the thick of parenting myself with two littles (2.5 & 6 months) I love seeing relatable content. Congrats congrats on new beginnings!!

  462. I remember reading (or saw in your insta stories) that you were feeling a bit uninspired and I’m so happy that you decided to change the course of your business. This makes sense and the joy your family brings you will definitely translate to the content you share. Congrats!

  463. I absolutely love your new site, and the name! I love the clean layout too. My favorite part – your content 🙂 I love coming to your blog daily to read a post.

  464. I have loved following along (I started following you about a month after your wedding) and am excited for this new chapter!

  465. looking forward to your new site! i also have a 3-year-old and 1-year-old so i love following along with your family! 🙂

  466. Love the rebranding and new site, Liz! The new site is inviting and easy to navigate across all devices. Congratulations!!

  467. In LOVE with the new site and this new chapter, Liz! Thank you for being so transparent with us and sharing your family journey! I can just feel it – the best is yet to come for you 🙂

  468. Congrats Liz! It is so much easier to navigate than the last site. Seamlessly moving to the next post – love it!

  469. Love it! I discovered your blog days before I had my daughter (and coincidentally the first post I read was charlie’s Birth story!) can’t wait to see more family content!

  470. Love the new site + new direction! Totally aligns with what you share + is so easy to navigate! Happy to continue following along 🙂

  471. WOW! This is beautiful. I am so happy for you and your family! It’s amazing to see you and your work grow along with your family. Congrats. This is huge!

  472. Love this new site, Liz! I’ve been an avid reader for years and I’m excited for this new chapter for you and your business!

  473. Love the name, and I think the new direction it fits you perfectly. Change is scary, but it also leads to great things!

  474. Congratulations on the new site Adams Family!

    You’ve done a wonderful job transitioning your blog and social media to one that is inclusive of where you are today. I hope you have gotten over the food poisoning and feel much better.

  475. Love the new site! It’s so fun to see how you’ve evolved as my life evolves. You continue to be one of the most authentic and I think this re-branding proves that even more! Congrats!

  476. The new site looks incredible – so excited for you Liz! You have a beautiful family and I look forward to your instagram stories of your boys every day 🙂 Can’t wait to see what’s to come!

  477. Hi Liz! I have been following you for awhile since you and Dave got married!! I absolutely LOVE this change especially because it is so raw and real and something lots of us can relate to! Also I feel like this came at the perfect time as my husband and I are about to become parents for the first time this spring…to TWINS👶🏼👶🏼 So I know I will be looking here for lots of advice and direction!! I am so proud of you and can’t wait to follow along with you on this new chapter!!

  478. I love following you and your adorable family! I love the new look and I think it suits you and the blog content. As a new boy mom myself, I feel your stuff to be super relatable! Keep it comin!

  479. Congratulations on the updated site! How lovely to continue to keep you personal and professional lives in alignment-the change isn’t always easy but it is valuable. Looking forward to more!

  480. I think the great joy of blogging, influencing & being in your space means your business can change depending on the season you are in— which makes it more authentic to you, in the moment. No need to be sequins and stripes if that’s not your season right now. Keep doing you- you’re doing great.

  481. Motherhood and building a family may not change who we are but it definitely changes our perspective, priorities and focus. It’s only natural that how we relate to others both personally and professionally would need to adjust in response to those changes. Your new branding shows your followers how you can embrace and respond to the changes in such an awesome way.

  482. I love the new site Liz! Change can be hard but growth is so important. Can’t wait to follow along on your journey. Also your family is just adorable!

  483. Love the new site and new focus on family. I definitely found sequins and stripes for the style, but following along with your family and adorable kids makes me excited for my own family in the future. And the new site is beautiful and so much easier to navigate- love it!

  484. I love the colors of the new site and how it’s ogranized! Love all the content I have two little boys too similar ages- youngest is also Jack 😀

  485. obsessed with the new site! my favorite part is the pictures of Webster, and I hope to see more of him on Hello Adams Family! 🙂

  486. Liz, I’m so excited for your new site! Thanks for taking us all along for the ride and keeping it real. Can’t wait to read your new content and see what else is next. You are an inspiration because you are defining success on your own terms (and crushing it) and I love cheering you on like one of my good friends!

  487. So excited for this next chapter. I love how easy it is to look up the coffee with Liz posts and other subjects on the mobile drop down menu! It’s been so exciting following along all of these years and I can’t wait to see what is to come for you all! 🙂

  488. I love the new name/brand! I cannot wait to see more of your family life. I know that this next chapter will be a great one! I am loving the coffee with liz tab at the top – it’s my favorite series and I’m glad I’ll be able to find all those posts quickly!

  489. I’ve followed you for a few years now and love seeing your family grow! Love the new site and excited for all the great content to come. Thanks for keeping it real!

  490. I love the change and can’t wait for the content! This website is beautiful and easy to navigate. The subcategories are so helpful 🙂

  491. Your family is beautiful! I am loving the new site so far!! The new menu bar categories makes it a lot easier to search for things I’m looking for. I’m a recent mom of 2 boys similar in age gap to Charlie and Jack and can’t wait to continue following along with you and your family! Thanks for sharing your life with us!

  492. Liz, I found your site right before Charlie was born and was actually pregnant with my baby at the same time you were with Jack! I feel like we are currently in the same stage of life, I just only have one crazy baby right now instead of two! Thank you for always being real and making us mommas know that life is messy and crazy but that’s what makes it beautiful!

  493. Hi Liz! I started following along with S&S when you and your sister went on that amazing trip to Europe. I’ve always loved your style, your blog and how you keep things real. I love the layout of the new site and am excited to see more family/home content as that is where my life is headed as well. Love the rebrand.

  494. LOVING the new look, Liz! I’m thrilled to be on this journey “with” you–and the whole Adams family! The new site is darling–LOVING the “Shop Instagram” tab in particular!! =)

  495. Love the new site! I’m originally from the Chicago suburbs but follow from afar in FL! Love seeing pieces of home through the eyes of you and your beautiful family 😊

  496. Such a fun new chapter! I love that everyone gets a shout out (even Webster! sometimes he is my fave – not gonna lie). Your winter/holiday fam pics are beautiful. Congrats!

  497. I love it Liz! It’s laid out so beautifully and it sounds weird but the font is perfect to read easily and clearly. Can’t wait to read about all the adventures your adorable family takes.

  498. Love, love, love!! It seems like a seamless transition! I’m still hoping for more cooking with Liz and drinking with Dave on insta!

  499. Really liking the new website, Liz! As a mom of two myself I appreciate the shift in content that you’ve made. Loving the layout!

  501. The new site looks great. I love the way it scrolls on mobile!

    I’m happy to see the new direction of your blog. Like you, I had my first child in the city and have since moved to the burbs while expecting our next. This feels very genuine and still the brand that I’ve loved for years!

  502. The site looks awesome! I am a new Mom and you’ve been really inspiring and have had a positive influence on me. Thank you!

  505. SO obsessed and in love with your new site!! Can’t wait to see your new content and ideas, and hopefully more pics of Jack & Charlie <3

  506. Such a great pivot from what you were already doing. It was time and I think you made the transition nicely! Love the new site 🙂

  507. Liz, this is so, so exciting! I love that you have this opportunity for your brand to transition with your life. It’s so fun to watch and has been exciting to follow you over the years. I love the new site!

  508. Love the new site, Liz!! It’s so sleek but warm at the same time—just like you guys! Can’t wait to hear more about your beautiful family—your blog has been my happy place, and will continue to be!

  509. Liz, this is so exciting and I’m excited for you and this new journey in your blogging career! I’ve been a follower since you were engaged and I love all your content to this day—the best is yet to come!

  510. Congrats on the announcement and new site!! Love everything about it, still feels like you and highlights the good stuff!

  517. I love it! What a fun and exciting change! As a follower of S&S for years and now a new mom myself, I can’t wait for more family focused content and to share in your journey.

  518. Love the new site!! I adore seeing you as a mom and appreciate the fact that you’ve incorporated it into your blog. There’s nothing quite like being a mom and you wear the title so well. Also, Hannah did a beautiful job on the design. No matter how this site changes and adapts to your life, you have a faithful following. Congrats on creating a space that perfectly reflects you and your darling family!!

  519. I love the new site! It is stylish and savvy and beautiful, but also so functional! I love how easy it is to search – I have found many things I remembered I was curious about or interested in from instastories 🎉🥰

  520. I’ve been following you on Instagram for a while now because you are SO relatable and down to earth! I’m also from the Chicagoland area and have a 4 month old son so I love to see everything you post about your cute family! Can’t wait to follow you along on here too 🙂

  526. Liz! Love love love the new website name. Family is the most important thing and it’s great that you have made it the focal point of your business. You give such helpful advice / tips / recipes / fashion finds and I can’t wait to keep following your journey. XOXO

  527. I really like the new branding and new website, it’s very user friendly. I love following your family, you guys are the cutest! I am excited about the change and more Adams family.

  528. Love this, Liz! I think a lot of us have grown right along with you which makes this transition even more perfect. I especially love how organized the website is! It’s so easy to find exactly what you’re looking for. ❤️

  529. Congratulations on this exciting change, Liz! I have loved everything you’ve shared with us, and I can’t wait to keep reading. The site is awesome and so true to you. All the best!

  531. Hi Liz!!

    Absolutely love your website and all that you share on Instagram and your blog. The site looks perfect and is so easy to navigate! Favorite part is Coffee wth Liz! Thanks for the giveaway and being so real!

  532. I love the blog transition and it feels much more relatable to where I’m heading in my life as I progress into motherhood as well.

  533. Congratulations, Liz!!! I’m so excited to follow the Adams family in this new and fresh way! While I love the fashion, it’s your real-ness that is the reason why I continue to follow you! Your two cute boys and the hilarious but equally endearing Dave are such fun! The new site is awesome and your family photos are gorgeous!

  539. So excited to follow along on this new endeavor!! Congratulations, the future is looking bright for you and your adorable family!

  540. I LOVE the new site! As a newish mom myself I love the new direction your blog has taken.

  545. Love the new blog! I’m a new mother and have been referencing your blog/Instagram for tips and tricks and real life, so I’m all for this transition! PS your boys are SO CUTE!!

  546. I have been following your blog since you were pregnant with Charlie. I think what I love best about you transforming from sequins and stripes to hello adams family is that the change seems totally organic and not contrived. Excited to follow you on this next phase of your business and grateful for all of the inspiration and advice I’ve received from your brand along the way. Cheers!

  547. I loved reading sequins and stripes – but as a fellow mother of two toddler boys – I’m so excited that your focus has kind of organically shifted and transitioned to blogging about life as a mom and family. What a cool transition – I can’t wait to follow along on your Adams family adventures 🙂

  548. Love the new site Liz! It has been great following along through the years and I’m excited to see the new site evolve!

  549. I LOVE it! I am a fellow mama and nothing is more encouraging than walking alongside other moms and hearing/seeing their journeys. Big congrats!

  550. I love it! I have loved following you for years, even before your little babes, and still love to now! Your genuine take on life is so refreshing!

  551. This is great!! Your life is growing at the same time as most of your readers. I love this new site and focus on family! 🙂

  573. So beautiful! Amazing to see how you have grown and thankful to have a fellow mama to go through it all! Thanks for sharing! Xox

  574. So exciting and fun! Congrats – excited about this new change! As a recent mom myself, I find myself searching mom tips then fashion for escape – happy to see both covered through you! Good luck and keep up the great content!

  575. I love the new site and your smiley little boys are the cutest!!! I’ve followed you for a few years now and it’s crazy to see how much your site has evolved, but how your voice and style of writing has remained the same!

  576. I absolutely love this change with the blog and your personal brand! I have been a long time Sequins & Stripes follower, but am so happy for you and this transition! And can’t wait to see more of your beautiful family! Thank you for sharing with all of your followers!!

  579. Liz – the new site is beautiful! I have been following along forever and I am so excited for your new path! It fits where you are in life now. And now that I have a little one (6 days old!) I can relate to you even more. Looking forward to the new blog and content! Congrats!

  580. Looking forward to continuing to follow along with the Adams Family! As a follower, it’s been really cool to watch you transition through these amazing stages of life. Can’t wait to see more!

  581. This is very exciting! Another reason you’re my fave! So honest and real. Looking forward to lots more Adams family!

  582. Congratulations! It looks beautiful and I love the scroll at the top to easily see past blog posts. This new brand suits you and your family SO well. xoxo

  583. Liz, I love the evolution of your brand and blogs style! Your everyday, approachable, fun perspective is a gift to me. Thanks for sharing your life with us! I love the new look & feel.

  584. The new website is amazing! It’s the perfect amount simple and modern while still adding in your unique flare to the design. It is all so thought out. The font, the color scheme, and the layout. It looks amazing!

  585. Can’t wait to continue to follow along in this next chapter! It’s been so fun watching your transitions over the last few years. Looking forward to continuing to follow along!

  586. Love the new site!! As a mom of a toddler I have always been partial to your family related posts so looking forward to seeing more! Your kids are just the cutest 😊

  587. So so so excited for this new chapter! Your family content is my favorite because we are in such similar circumstances-I also have a 1 and 3 year old, Sadie and Luke.😀💃🏻

  588. Hi Liz! Love the new branding and site. As a new mom I look forward to your upcoming posts regarding parenting 🙂 I’m a graphic designer by trade- I think your branding would benefit from a secondary mark/logo- a mark that would work independently of the “Hello Adams Family.” Example: a hand wave symbol. Just some food for thought for you! In branding it helps to have a more simplified mark for your brand to use in small spaces (mobile view, stationery, etc.). Have a great week!

  589. I think this change is great! I love your content and appreciate how it has more recently been focused on family. I’m a ‘burbs living mom with a daughter right around Charlie’s age and your Instagram/blog are perfect for me!

  590. Very exciting! Some of your longtime readers are growing right along with you (I now also have two little boys!) so I think this is a super smart business move! Plus Dave and the boys are some of your best content! Congrats!!!

  591. I love this new website! So chic and updated – I’ve loved following you on Instagram, but I really do look forward to your commentary on the blog posts as well. Congratulations!

  592. The new site looks great and I love that you’re continuing to blog while your life shifts! And I’m super happy Coffee with Liz is sticking around 🙂

  593. I love this new website! So chic and updated – I’ve loved following you on Instagram, but I really do look forward to your commentary on the blog posts as well. Congratulations!

  594. I love this!! I’ve been following your blog for YEARS— from the time my husband and I were dating, until now, as I am a toddler mama. I’ve always adored your blog and am excited for this transition! xox

  595. I love the new name, look, and style! Our lives change and progress over the years and yours has been a lovely one to follow along to. Congrats on the change – this is an exciting time!

  596. I have been reading your blog religiously for 6 years- when I started my “big girl” job in fashion. I’ve shared some of your ideas and post with a lot of friends/family. I’m excited to see the next chapter!

  597. Love this! My friends introduced me to your blog a few years ago and I have so enjoyed watching your family grow! You are so relatable and I just love following along! Congrats on the new website! So happy to keep following!

  598. Love the new site and the re-branding! Your family is adorable, and your Facebook group has helped me navigate a lot of questions/concerns as a new parent.

  599. How exciting! Looking forward to seeing your next chapter unfold. Thank you for sharing your journey and family with us. Your site is such a happy place to visit and now the new site seems even more inviting and easy to navigate. Congrats!

  600. I think this is the perfect change! I had my son a year after Charlie, and your advice on baby products and parenting has been a huge help to us. I feel like your family is changing as mine has, and I’m happy to follow along!

  601. This is a super amazing website– definitely easier to find posts and work your way around. I’ve always loved to pictures that you post. I can get tons of fashion/gifting options just by looking at your pictures!

    Congrats on the new website 🙂

  602. As a mom of two little girls under 2, I love seeing blogs that are more aligned to my life. No sequins here! Love it!

  604. Love the new site! I have been following you for a couple of years and excited about this new change. Love your content and following along on social media. We are at a similar stage in life and just had our second baby. You are so relatable and keep it real! Love it!

  611. Congratulations! What an exciting venture for you and your career. Don’t think of this as good-bye to S & S but rather HELLO to new beginnings!

  612. Congratulations!!! I love the rebranding and the move towards more aspects of your life other than fashion. I love the easy dinners you’ve shared via Instagram and the workouts too so I look forward to all the life and family posts here!

  613. I love the new look!! Same great content with more Dave, Charlie, and Jack-how could you go wrong?!! I’m so excited to see what this new chapter brings! Looking forward to all your future family posts!

  614. This is wonderful. I love how you show the real mom life and not just pretty posed pictures all the time. I do still love the pretty pictures too. 😍

  615. I love this! In the years I’ve followed your blog, I’ve also grown and changed. I look forward to more family content. Congrats!

  616. This is so exciting – I loved your content on sequin and stripes but I have loved your posts about family life as well and can’t wait to read along and follow your journey!

  617. I love the new site, congratulations! It’s very clean and easy to navigate for your readers. I can’t wait to see the upcoming posts!

  618. I love that your business is growing with you and your family! I love that the content is focused more on family, motherhood and how to take care of yourself while doing it all. Love the clean lines and the light pink is so cute! Yay!!

  619. So excited for you, Liz! This is going to be so fun and authentic and we’re so lucky to get to see a peek behind the curtain of what it’s like being a real mom, wife, friend, blogger etc. Congrats on this new chapter! Maybe I’ll see you and dave around town again soon lol!

  620. I have loved following your family and I think your rebranding is the natural progression for your blog! I love how easy your site it to navigate – especially how easy it is to find your beauty tips and recipes!

  621. Liz! Love the new blog! I’ve been following you for 6 years and have always been so inspired by you. So excited for you! (P.s you have the CUTEST kids…no contest)

    -Haley

  622. LOVE the new site! It’s so clean and easy to navigate. Looks beautiful and the new family photos are gorgeous. Love it!

  623. Absolutely love the new site and concept! Being a early 30’s mom with two boys this is right up my alley😊looking forward to following along!

  624. Liz, this is so exciting! I’m so thrilled and my family has grown alongside yours. Looking forward to continuing to celebrate life.

  625. This is so wonderful! I love following your stories and posts especially those about your boys. Congratulations, Liz!!

  626. I think it’s admirable that you were able to recognize change within yourself and translate that to a beautiful space like your new site! Looking forwards to following along with your family and hearing more about the “real” side of how hectic parenting can be.

  627. Congrats on the new site! I also live in the Chicago burbs with 2 little boys about the same age as yours, so really looking forward to more family-centric content!

  628. Liz-
    Love the new page, and new ‘brand’. I’ve been a follower for a long time, and I’m so excited that you’ve transitioned your little space, as it came so naturally with your life changes and the growing of your beautiful family! Thanks for being such a happy, inspiring space on the internet!

  629. I’m so excited for you, Liz. It’s so obvious how much your family is your world, and this just seems like such a natural next step. Sequins and Stripes has inspired me for so long, and I have no doubt this one will, too. Congrats on taking the risk and doing what is right for you! I have no doubt your followers (old and new) will be right there along with you.

  630. LOVE THE NEW SITE! And I am so excited for all that is to come with it. I enjoy reading about your family, recipes, home, etc. glad this is more of a focus for your blog now. Congratulations!

  631. The new website is beautiful! I have loved following along your instagram and blog, as I have two young girls around the same ages as your boys (4 and 1). It’s so nice to follow someone who is going through the same stages of life. Congrats on the new website! 🎉

  632. It’s absolutely beautiful! I usually only follow along on Insta but this is too pretty not to read here! Congrats girl!

  633. Liz! This is so fantastic, I’m loving the new site <3. I'm on a pump break at work and this new site is everything I need. I've already saved a recipe (chicken pot pie), found somethings that some how made their way to my car and read some of your wellness posts. Love it!

  634. Congratulations on the new site, it’s beautiful! It’s been so wonderful following you through the transitions of life, especially as a Mom. Can’t wait to see what’s in store. 🙂

  635. Congratulations! Love the new site and new name! I think it fits you perfectly! Transition is always hard, but worth it in the end! 😀

  636. Yes! I’m so excited for your new transition! You are my inspiration as a mother of two boys (even I have a Jack). Every time I’m listening or reading your blogs my husband says “what is she telling you to do now” or “what do we need to buy now.” It’s hysterical, but your tips are extremely useful. I secretly wish Dave had a blog for dads too! I quote you in my daily conversations 😊 mom’s need you!

  637. I’m definiltey going to miss Sequins and Stripes, but I love the new site. I always love when you share photos and videos of your fam (and Webster!), so I’m excited it’s going to live on through your site! Cheers to you.

  638. I love following you and your sweet family. I also have two boys (1 and 3) so I relate to the crazy adventure you are on. Congrats on the new chapter!

  639. So happy for you Liz! Looking forward to following your journey through motherhood and family life. Congratulations!🎉

  640. The new site looks so great! It’s fun to watch you move from one chapter in life to the next. This chapter is a good one-you have the sweetest family!

  641. Liz, this is amazing! So clean, fresh, and professional looking while keeping your fabulous personality and fun-ness (is that a word?). So cool!!!

  642. When I first started reading your blog, I was newly married and looking for fashion inspiration. As your family has grown, so has mine and fashion has transitioned to what to wear while pregnant, what to buy for baby, and how to decorate for my new grown up life. As you transition into your new online space, I look forward to continuing to follow along now and into the future! CONGRATS on your new endevour!

  643. I have read and loved your blog for several years and have so enjoyed watching your little family grow. I am so excited about this new chapter and am looking forward to continuing to follow along!

  644. I really love the new website!! It is so easy to maneuver, and it still feels so personal. That is one of my favorite parts of following you, you don’t hide behind social media, but you boldly show the world that it is okay to be real with each other. Thank you for your encouragement and your confidence throughout your blog!!

  645. Congratulations! As a working mom of 2.5 boys (due mid-April with my third), I know how challenging it is to juggle it all and redefine yourself as a mother and business owner along the way as priorities shift. It’s been fun to follow along your journey from afar and I look forward to diving in to the new website content. Coffee cheers from Portland! -Kim

  646. Such a sweet family! I’m definitely at a sequins & stripes point in my life… but I will continue to follow you and the Adams family as I love your style, recipes and fun posts! (And my niece is Jacks EXACT age.. so cute!)

  647. No matter what the name of your blog, your content is relatable and FUN. I’m about 5 years behind you in life but your blog makes me excited for the future (kids, dog, and possibly suburb life 🙂 ) Keep doing you, girl!

  648. Liz I love you and love the site!! I am so excited for the changes ahead. My life closely mirrors yours, I first got married and had a dog child, now have an almost 3 year old boy and a 7 month old baby girl. I absolutely love seeing what type of fun things you guys do as a family, what you’re cooking, how you’re using your oils (I’m just starting to learn!) and how you’re decorating your home. Keep being awesome 😎

  649. The new site looks so great! It’s fun to watch you move from one chapter in life to the next. This chapter is a good one-you have the sweetest family!Congrats!

  650. Congrats! The site looks beautiful – clean and easy to navigate but still the great content that we’re used to seeing from you. The pictures of your family are so adorable!

  651. Liz, it’s GORGEOUS! I’ve been following along since very shortly after you launched Sequins & Stripes, and I love this new focus on the family. My life has mirrored the changes in yours, and its so fun to have a renewed focus on marriage, kids and home and wellness, because that’s exactly where I am now too. Thank you for being brave enough to grow and change and help your blog do the same – there’s nothing more beautiful, empowering, or strength giving. Congrats on the new launch!

  652. Congrats, Liz (& family)! Nice to see you evolving your blog as your life evolves. Love the streamlined look of the new site. Easy to find coffee with Liz & other stories to catch up on!

  653. Love the new site! Really easy to find what you’re looking for on the new navigation tab at the top (love that coffee with liz has its own section!) and the similar posts below is great too. Excited about your new rebrand–can’t wait to continue following along!

  654. Absolutely LOVE the new re-brand! I feel like we’ve grown up together the past few years – through weddings and babies (both of us have boys just a few months a part from each other!) and moves to the burbs. Love the space you’ve created and that you’ve embraced changing this space as you’ve evolved.

  655. Congratulations, Liz…and to the whole Adams Family! The new site is stunning and I look forward to continue following along 🙂

  656. Hello Adams family! I love following you. I am a stay at home mom of 5, I I love when you share your parenting advice, and struggles. I feel like I’m not alone!! I also love your style😊

  657. I love the transition! My last seven years have looked similar to yours – marriage and two babies later, I love coming back to your blog for all kinds of inspiration and I love that you keep it real.

  658. Love love love the new site. Your family is beautiful and cannot wait to continue to follow you on this new opportunity!

  659. Love the new site, Liz! While I obviously love your style, I most look forward to your family-centered posts. Congrats on the new beginning!

  660. Oh I just love this so much! This was a great move, I know those shifts can always be a bit scary, but girlfriend you knocked it out of the park!!! Can’t wait to keep following along with Hello Adams Family! -Erin, Attention to Darling Blog

  661. The website is beautiful, I especially love your family photos and how bright and cheerful everything seems.. also very user friendly!! Can’t wait to see more of you and your lovely family! ❤️

  662. Love the new website and new brand! I am excited to follow you along on your journey and to continue reading your amazing content and ideas!

  663. I love the new site and the name. It’s nice to see other important aspects of your life besides fashion. I love your posts about your family and kids and I love that you show raw content rather than making everything seem perfect.

    Good luck with everything and keep up the good work.

  664. Congratulations on your new adventure Liz! I’ve been a lurker for awhile now (I promise I’m not creepy 😬). My favorite posts are always the ones about your family. I love how honest you are about motherhood and daily life/struggles. All of us moms can relate! I’m excited about the new blog and look forward to seeing what new things you and your family will do next! All the best to you and your sweet husband and boys!

    PS. I love cooking with Liz!!

  665. I love this! As a mom of a one year old boy I really love following along with your journey. I can’t wait for all the holiday inspiration! Also, these pictures are too cute for words!!!

  667. Your new site is so exciting! Congratulations! I love how real and relatable you and your brand are. It’s easy and enjoyable to follow along!

  668. Congratulations!! I started following you when I found out I was pregnant and it has been so fun to watch your family grow. Can’t wait to see what new content is ahead!

  670. Liz! I love the new site! I’ve followed you for a long time now and you’re one of the only instastories I still watch 🤷🏻‍♀️ Congrats to you!!!

  671. Love the new site – so user friendly, and pretty! Congratulations! It’s so exciting that you’re able to make your blog/platform evolve with you and include your family throughout the different seasons of life! When a passion and a career meet – there’s nothing better 🙂

  672. Love the new name! Also the layout on the home page is divine- so simple, and I like how the photos are featured prominently. Congrats!!

  673. Love your new site!! Been a reader and follower since I was single in Chicago and now I’m married expecting my second so have loved your transition to sharing your life as mom over the past few years (my son is a month or so older than Charlie). Looking forward to everything that is to come!

  674. Love the new site and I’m so excited for you! More importantly I want to thank you, I feel like I’ve grown with you just a few steps behind. You’ve made me excited about (soon) welcoming our first boy when I felt my heart wanted girls. Charlie and Jack are the cutest! You’ve made me excited to move back to my hometown too, being close to my parents has been awesome. Oh don’t even get me started on the amazing Facebook group you created, the most amazing group of women I’ve ever met. They’ve helped me with weird questions I’m too afraid to ask anyone else. And I’ve bought more things than my husband would care to admit because your taste both home and fashion is so awesome! I basically want to be Liz. Ha! 😂 Thank for being you and sharing your family. Hugs.

  675. Hiii Liz!! I love your blog, your family but I mostly love how real and genuine you are. I believe you do a great job in all aspects and it is amazing how you show your followers your life everyday. Wishing you and the family the best.

  676. So excited to see where your new space takes you! I’ve followed S&S for many years and have loved growing my family while watching you grow yours! Thank you for opening your home and beautiful boys and hilarious husband up to us! You are a bright spot that I have turned to on many a hectic day! Xoxo

  679. Congratulations on your new journey!! Love the site and the different content you bring. Plus the willingness to share your family with us!! One of my favorite series is Coffee with Liz, the time you take to interact with the readers shows the dedication you have to your business!

  680. Congratulations! I love following you and your beautiful family. Your feed is always so refreshing and relatable, as a new mama myself. Thanks for sharing your life and family with all of us.

  685. So very excited for you!!! I started following you 1 year ago and haven’t looked back since 😂. Thank you for doing what you do best!!!

  686. Congratulations Liz! I love the new site – you’re so right it is just beyond on a desktop. You were the first blogger/influencer I ever followed and your content is always top notch. Many things I wear, meals I’ve cooked, and things decorating my house have been at your recommendation. Thank you for Sequins & Stripes and lots of luck on this new adventure!

  687. I love it! So many of us who started reading sequins and stripes so long ago are now in the same stage of life. It’s so lovely to follow along with you and your precious family! Xoxo.

  695. Hi Liz! I love your new site! Congrats! The look is so clean & easy to navigate, & I love the focus on your sweet family. It has been fun to watch your journey these past years as you’ve entered into new life stages. You’ve always been a step ahead of me (marriage/babies) & I’ve enjoyed reading your blog as an “advice column” for all my questions, especially as I’ve entered into motherhood. Thank you for being so open & honest with your life!

  696. Love this, Liz! I have been following you for so long, your style is great and your family seems so fun. I cannot wait to see more of Hello Adams Family!

    (Side note! It might be just be me, but I keep clicking on the different options on the pull-down menu on the right side of your home screen and it does not bring those pages up. I know you have the menu at the top as well, but just an FYI if you wanted to use the pull-down…)

  697. I love that you’ve taken your blog with you through your life stages. It makes it super relatable, and enjoyable to read!

  698. Absolutely love the new blog!! I’m from Seattle and my coworker actually pointed me in the direction of your Sequins and Stripes blog and I fell in love! Your family is beautiful and I appreciate how down to earth you are!

  699. It’s beautiful!! I love seeing your adorable family as well as your fashion and lifestyle content! Congrats on the new name and gorgeous site!!!

  700. Congrats, Liz. As a fellow 30 something mom and I can appreciate the growing up and changes. I always enjoy following 💙💙💙💗

  707. Love these family photos (and the new site!) As a mom of three young boys, it’s so fun to see what other families with little kids are up to and in to. Super excited for your blogs evolution!

  708. How exciting! I’ve been following the blog for probably 4 or 5 years now and this switch makes so much sense. I’m sure the rebrand will make it easier to blend your day-to-day life with creating relevant content. After taking a quick peek around, the site seems pretty intuitive to use! So happy for you and your family!

  709. Love the new site! I’ve been following you for some time so I’m excited to go on this journey with you! I, too, have changed (marriage, kiddos, burbs!) and I look forward to more relatable content in the chicest way only you know how to do.

  710. Congratulations on the new site, it’s beautiful! I’ve been a reader since the beginning–it’s been so fun following along. Wishing you all the best in this new chapter.

  711. Love the new site! I started following you a few years ago, in my own “sequin and stripe” years and now I have a 6 month old and doing the mom thing. Been loving the family focused, home posts but also still love seeing fashion too – moms still need to look good too!

  712. Perfection! As much as your life has changed so too has your readers. Love to see this brand evolution and excited to keep following along.

  713. Website looks great…..seamless transition to what your daily life is filled with now! Looking forward to all the content to come!

  715. Oh my goodness!! What a perfect name!!! I love following you because of you and your beautiful family. My husband and I just had a baby girl and I’m always telling him look at this family, her kids are adorable & her husband is hilarious. You are such an inspiration to me everyday with how you live your life as a Mama of two and an accomplished influencer. Can’t wait to keep following the Adams Family! 💛

  734. I love your new site and am so excited for this new chapter in your life! I’ve been following Sequins and Stripes for years, and have had 2 young babies around the same time you had yours. It has been so comforting to know there was another mom out there “in the thick of it” with two small kids just trying to balance it all and make it all work. Thank you for always being genuine and keeping things real, even if it’s not always pretty or perfect for Instagram. I’ll definitely be following along as you transition to your new blog!

  776. Love the shift that you are making! I am also a mom of two young boys ages 2 and 4. They are crazy but love big! I love following the journey of other mothers who are in the thick of it as well but who are also able to focus their energy on their marriage (!!) their style and whatever other areas bring them joy and fullfillment!!

  785. I love how real your posts are about being a mom to Jack and Charlie! So happy to see you have extended the hello Adams family blog 💗

  786. Perfect! This seems to be a perfect transition for you. I’ve only been following a year but have two boys of similar ages so I love all your content. ❤️

  787. I’ve been following you for awhile and I just love how real you are. Yes, it’s an Instagram or website and you have to portray a “perfect” life but we see the good and the bad through your stories. I love the new website, keep up the great work you do as a mom, wife and entrepreneur. ❤️

  788. You are one of my favorite bloggers EVER and really one that I keep up with regularly. I’m not a mom and was worried your (and all of the blogs I follow with recently new moms) might become more and more irrelevant for me, but I’m finding that I love your realism as a parent just as much as I did before. Thank you for still including some style and fashion and recipes into the mix as you parent your adorable boys and lead your way thru a new phase of life. I’ve now also got my sister hooked on Tula, thanks to you!

  789. Love the new layout! So easy to navigate from my phone as well as my computer!

    I adore following the goings-on of the Adams family, thanks for giving us a peek!

  796. Long time follower- and I am so grateful to be in the same stage of life as you! Loved following you while I lived downtown Chicago and now that I moved to the country and have a 2 year old, I love keeping up with you (and all the cool mom things). Thank you for being a “friend” over the years and letting us follow along with your boys. My little guy is 2 and loves watching instastories with Charlie.

  797. Liz, love you since the money I started following you! You are the most down to eart and relatable blogger I’ve seen and look forward to your stores each and every day…my kids love your kids too 😉 I too love in the suburbs of Chicago and love to learn about what you do locally as its part of my Illinois life too. From your sweat sessions at the gym, style and home life, you are amazing and are the girl next door kind of friend we all need in our lives! Congrats to you on the new site and best wishes on the success of this new chapter!

  798. Love the new site!!

    It seems so easy to use and is a true reflection of the evolution of the content we’ve been seeing from you! I have loved following you for the last few years and can’t wait to see what content you continue to create.

  800. New site looks great! Happened to click today (before seeing insta) and thought, ‘wow, I follow her constantly on Instagram but haven’t been at Sequin & Stripes in a while’. Imagine my surprise! The new site perfectly correlates to the brand you’ve created 🙂 Looking forward to visiting more frequently!

  801. Congratulations Liz, this is amazing! I’m a new mom (1 month in…sooo tired) and your feed has helped get me through the days. I’m so excited to explore this new site!

  802. Liz – you’re site is beautiful and is so aligned with who you are and the content you are posting! I love it and cannot wait to explore it even more.

I’ve found new skincare and makeup products because of your recommendations as well as clothing items for me, m daughter -in-law and my grandkids!!
    Your new site is amazing, and I look forward to your new adventure!!

  804. Hi Liz,
    I’ve been following you I guess now for a year but I’m the kind of person who does not comment or like a lot. I always enjoy watching your videos and following your beautiful family. You are truly so genuine and very honest person.
    I really like your new blog and how much excited you are about it- I am too.

    Happy Holidays to you and your family.

  805. I love the new update! Especially because as a mom myself, I love that you’re embracing your new stage in life. I can’t wait to see what you’ll post!

  806. Absolutely love the new blog name and look! So fitting for this new stage in life. I have loved following along to see how your adventure unfolds and enjoy all of the content you share. Hoping your other followers love the update as well!!

  808. Thanks for sharing your beautiful family to us! Such an inspiration for all things balance, lifestyle, exercise, parenting, marriage and so much more! So excited for this new chapter!!

  809. Love this new site, Liz! Though I loved the old one too, this one is lighter and brighter, the aesthetics are amazing!! Cannot wait to follow along on this journey! It also seems very user-friendly!

  810. Hi! I have loved following you over the years! I also have 2 boys ages 3 and 1! 🙂 I have loved watching your boys grow and look forward to keeping up with the new blog!

  811. Been following your sweet family since Charlie was just a little nugget! Love your new site — so easy to navigate!

  812. What a great transition from Sequins and Stripes! Although, I feel like your overall aesthetic hasn’t changed a bit.

    I’ve been following for awhile and it’s fun to watch you grow along with all of your readers. Very special, indeed!

  813. Congrats Adams Family! I am past your stage in kids but love seeing the boys grow, brings back so many memories that I tend to forget because of the craziness of the tween years. So, thank you for allowing me to bring those memories back to life!
    FYI- the tween years are just as great as the baby/toddler years!!

  814. I love the new site! As a long time follower, I appreciate how genuine you are as you share your life with others. It is very brave to pivot your brand and I think you have done it with grace! Congrats!

  815. So excited! I just had my second and moved to the burbs of Austin. Looking forward even more Adams family content. Thanks for always being real about the beautiful and messy chaos that is motherhood. xo

  816. Congratulations, Liz! The new site looks beautiful, and I love the way the images pop/how easy it is to navigate. So happy for you!

  817. I love the new site and the new direction your blog Is taking. Definitely motherhood is not sequins and stripes but we are all in this together!

  819. Hi Liz ( & Dave, Charlie, & Jack) I love the new website because I think it perfectly displays you now!

Loved following along before Charlie & can’t wait to see more moments with you & your people that make you YOU!

  820. Your new website is so cute and aesthetically pleasing! I have followed you for a few years now, and I still love your content and watching your adorable family grow 🙂

  821. Congratulations on your amazing re-branding! The site looks beautiful – clean and organized! I also love the way that you’re able to show your full life on Instagram, which at times is in contrast to the “clean” site – REAL LIFE! I’ve always enjoyed following your journey and love how your whole family is included now!

  822. Love the new site! As a fellow mom, sequins are now a rare occurance for me as well unless they are dumped all over the floor. Loved following you before & looking forward to following along on the new site. Congrats!

  823. Your new site looks amazing! I’ve only been following you for a year now, since Jack’s birth, but you hooked do me with that silver jumpsuit and the beautiful faux fur coat! Keep the great content coming and thanks for your hard work!!

  825. I love your site, and what the name change means. It’s definitely an important change and the inclusion of your whole family in the name speaks volumes of what is important to you! Congratulations!

  848. Liz!! I LOVE the new website!! It is inviting and so so easy to find everything! Congratulations on this new journey! I took some time to read through some of your Coffee With Liz posts because I had been missing them and for some reason could never find the ones I wanted to read on the site when I was ready to read them. I’m sure it was coming from my end, but now I can easily get to them and actually have had the chance to read them!! Amazing!! I’m so excited to continue with you on this journey!! Have a great day!

  849. Liz – I’m so excited for this new avenue of yours! I have been a huge fan of Sequins & Stripes for many years and i’m certain I’ll be even more inspired with this new blog of yours.

    Ps. Cooking with Liz (+Dave +kids) are everything 🙌

  850. Congratulations! How cool that your online presence has followed your evolution as a woman, wife and mother. I love your content and think it’s really cool that you’ve embraced the changes. It’s hard as a woman to hold onto who you are while embracing new roles, and you’ve done such a lovely job of that. I’ve got two little ones with a third on the way and have loved following your journey. Thanks for sharing!

  851. Congratulations! Love the family photos and the new site is beautiful! Looking forward to lots more fun content and watching your family grow 😊

  852. First and foremost – the sight is beautiful! Classic, clean and eye catching as your content has always been. It’s also so great to see you following your heart and updating your “brand” to reflect what resonates with your life right now. It’s authentic and genuine in a way that truly can’t be cultivated. Congrats!

  853. Congratulations! How exciting and genius business move. My favorite blogger to follow. Website looks great too! xo

  857. Liz,
    LOVE LOVE LOVE the new site. I was so worried that those of us without kiddos might feel left out with the new site but it’s so amazing. I can find all the fashion that I love and still look at your adorable kiddos. Also, I love the section for Coffee with Liz! So excited for this new chapter of yours, I’ve been following since way before you had Charlie and watching your family grow has just been so fun!

  858. How exciting! I’ve followed your blog for a long time – and I come back repeatedly because you maintain such a positive (but realistic!) space for parents with young kids. Thanks for working so hard to bring enjoyable/relatable content to all of us!

  859. Liz, this is simply incredible! I absolutely love the new site and all that it will bring. I can’t believe Sequins & Stripes is no more but so HAPPY that I can say I was a part of it and so happy for you, for this new adventure for your incredible business? You are incredible, this site is incredible and I’m so excited for all that’s to come!

  860. “Hello Adams Family” is so much more aligned with what S&S naturally morphed in to! It looks great. And I love the family photos!

  861. I love it! Being a mom of a 3.5 and 1.5 year old is the best and hardest job. This is the perfect addition to my morning cup of joe ( or afternoon) depending how crazy my day is going…

  862. Liz- I absolutely love your new site. My sisters and I, (33, 31, 28, and 26 years old) get so much enjoyment from your Instagram, Facebook group and website! Whenever we all get together (we all live in different cities) we are talking about your latest posts, fashion, and your little family. (Seriously, this really does happen!) Your genuine, natural, easy-going demeanor is what makes you so great to follow. You are open about daily struggles and life simply not being perfect – thanks for giving a real depiction of what family life is like. Keep it going! The sisters over here cant wait to see more!

  863. Have read your blog and now your IG for a long time and even tho I’m much older than you, love reading your posts and watching you all. Dave and the boys are hilarious! That last story of the boys playing with the kitchen when Charlie pushed Jack’s arm and he fell over!? I felt guilty for wanting to laugh! I raised 2 boys 15 mo apart. Love your new website!

  864. Love your new site. I love the diversity now not just fashion but family too. Good luck and Congratulations!

  865. CONGRATS on your new website/ blog- so fun!!! I just found you this year and love all your posts about life, family, fashion, home… We are in the process of adopting, so all the posts about being a mommy and balancing life are so helpful. The boys are just adorable and your sense of style totally speaks to me. So excited for this new adventure- thank you!

  866. Love love love the new site!!! I’ve looked forward to my Sequins & Stripes email in my inbox for years now, and now I’m excited for my Hello Adams Family one! Thanks for sharing your life and taking us all along with you on this journey. Hello Adams Family!

  867. I like the clean, classic style of the new site. I’ve followed you for years and I too now have a young family (5yo,3yo and 1yo) and my days of dressing up are so limited. But I loved the recent tablescapes and you recommended Room on the Broom—which was an instant hit at my house. Looking forward to following this next chapter!

  868. I love the new site. I started off following you on Instagram after Charlie so I really didn’t know the “before” site. Your family is amazing and even though my kids are bit older I still like following along for the new info and products and of course style. I don’t want to live in a bubble so your site is a welcome read. Congrats on the new site.

  869. I have been following you for years and we are now in the exact same stage of life. I have a 3 year old and 1 year old and LOVE all the cooking and family content you do now. Congrats!

  870. Congratulations Liz!!! I love seeing you so happy ! Love the name and the new website ! You’re a great mom! Looking forward to seeing the new holiday gift guides- they’re always on point! Ps thank you for posting on Ig about the Cali fires Much love to you and your family! ~Maggie

  885. I think it’s admirable that you recognize how our lives are fluid, shifting and changing. We go through phases; each one no better or worse than the next, simply different. Within those phases, there are new challenges and opportunities to express our creativity. Sequins and stripes are not completely gone from your life I’m sure; their just going to be represented differently 💗 you’re doing wonderful Mama!

  886. Love the new site and concept! My family has grown along with yours and it’s been so helpful to see another mom make it all work!

  890. I think this is great! I have been reading for a looong time and have loved the evolution of your content. My husband and I just welcomed our first child (a boy!) six weeks ago, so I am so excited to read your new family focused content. Congrats!

  891. Love the new blog! I’m a mom of a 3yr old and 1 yr old with another on the way and love following along with you!

  892. Been a follower for a hot minute and absolutely love that you’ve decided to let your blog/brand evolve. I’m a new FTM and love to see your posts about body/fitness, food, fashion and of course KIDS! Keep em coming!

  893. Love the transformation. I’ve been a long time follower. It’s been fun to see you and your family grow. Good luck with the new beginning to the blog.

  894. Love the new layout. I have to say I will miss “sequins and stripes.” I think that name embodies your style and spirits so much. Also, this blog seems to work a little funny with my iPad? Not sure if I am the only person who is experiencing this.

  895. I love the shift to focus on family and reflect the reality of your life right now. It’s good to change and be true to who you are.

  896. Love the new site! The navigation is super easy and seems like it actually make sense! Super excited to continue following along! Hello Adams Family!!!

  897. Congratulations on the beautiful new look. Love following along with your family. As a newer mom I have already appreciated all of the down to earth advice and info on IG and here on your blog. I especially like the little tidbits of info you give us on Coffee with Liz, and your recipes for busy moms.

  898. I am so excited for this new look—congratulations! I have been a loyal follower for a few years. I found you when I was planning my wedding and I’ve loved reading and watching as your family has grown and your style has evolved. This new website layout is hugely helpful with navigation and finding just what I’m looking for. I also like the recipe shoutouts! Still love some #cookingwithliz ☺️ Can’t wait to keep reading!

  899. Hi Liz! So happy for you and your new site! I love that you’re switching gears and focusing on your life now – so relateable!! I just recently moved to Chicago and it’s great seeing what you and your fam are up to 🙂 Keep it up!

  900. Love this new direction for your blog! As a photographer myself, I have to say how visually pretty the new layout is! Can’t wait to see more 🙂

  901. Love the design of your new website! So fresh, clean, and adorable looking! I am very excited to hear a larger focus of your content will be on family. I think you all are adorable and I always enjoy seeing what you’re up to and in to!

    PS. Bring back cooking with Liz and drinking with Dave! I always have so much fun watching and laughing with you guys when you do them!

  902. I’ve been so excited to see your new site! Love the new lay out and color scheme. Huge fan of you and your sweet family! Xo

  903. Love the new site and your shift in focus! I have two little girls (2yo and 4 mo) and love following along your family journey.

  904. I love your new site! I think it’s incredible how you are building a personal brand around your family. So unique and lovely to read and follow!!!

  905. Congrats on the new site! I really like the layout & font. It’s very easy to read which isn’t always the case with blogs

  906. I just adore you Liz as well as your family and this is such a beautiful site. So polished and chic, but I wouldn’t expect anything less ! Congratulations!!!

  907. Love the new blog and being a first time mama to a now 9 month old (jack) I love your content, thank you for being real and down to earth! Greatly appreciated 😁

  908. I am loving the new site! I feel like as we grow and mature as females we are about so much more than just fashion. While looking cute is great, I really love your content about your family, home décor, recipes, and any other random content you share! It’s nice to acknowledge that our lives evolve and become not just about ourselves (we have to grow up eventually!) but really becomes centered around family, friends, entertaining, travel, hobbies, etc. I love how you keep it real with the chaos that is life. I am so looking forward to more content about your boys, they are just to die for!

  909. Liz!! I have been following you for years and always looked up to you for far more than just your style- your spirit, smile, demeanor, and positive attitude have always brightened my days! As a soon to be first time mom, I LOVE the new site and the new direction of your content. As my life pivots away from going out or date night attire to real, functional, everyday style, I am so excited to see that you’re revealing even more of your life behind the scenes!

    Thank you for all the time and energy you put into this for your followers!

  910. I am so excited for your new site! I have been following Sequins & Stripes since I was a senior in college (4 years ago) and I have loved seeing your family grow and content change. I’m not married or have kids but I find all of your material to be relatable and engaging. When friends ask me who my favorite blogger is, you’re always at the top of the list. Love everything you’re about – thank you for always being a ray of sunshine on my feed.

  911. Love the new aesthetic of the site and the new idea! Your family is so fun and can’t wait to see all the new content!

  912. Absolutely love the new site – congrats!! I’m loving the wellness section, makes finding your workout tips so much easier!

  913. The new site is beautiful! Congratulations! As a fellow mom, I love the new direction and focus on your family. And I love how you keep it real!

  914. I am SO happy for you and to see the new site-it’s perfect! Have loved following along with you and your family❤️

  915. Congratulations! I am one of those people that has been reading since before you were married – I remember the personal styling business you had and how I always wanted to try it out! So many places to look at on the home page – I see a lot of posts that I want to check out, whereas the former site felt like there was only 1 spot I could look at to see something “new.”

  916. Love the new look! Just hoping the new content is still relatable/interesting for those of us who don’t have kids.

    Also when I tried to find this post through google it kept trying to correct my search to “Addams family” hahaha

  917. Love that you changed up the blog with a family focus! It’s one of the reasons I follow and continue to follow. 🙂

  918. You have such a beautiful family, and this fresh face to your blog is the perfect representation of your evolution as a person and brand. I especially love the color scheme of the new site. Congrats, Liz!

  919. The new site looks beautiful, Liz! I used to blog with my sister on @sistersmarie about fashion mostly but after my son was born, my life changed greatly and now my content is much more motherhood focused which feels more fulfilling and honest. I love your new name and look forward to watching the site grow! ❤️

  920. Congrats on the new website! I am starting a family now and I have enjoyed following along, very excited for what is to come, and thanks for sharing so many life tips !

  921. The new site is BEAUTIFUL!! I’ve been following you for quite a while now and this is the perfect next thing for you!! So excited!! 💕 (And you’re right…mobile view is good but desktop is everything!)

  922. Oh my goodness! Congrats! I love it! I love the transition to a family lifestyle blog! What a fun new adventure! I cannot wait to see the content you dream up! Plus the new look is SO you! I feel like Hello Adams Family is so fitting!

I’ve followed you for a while and am growing with you – my first son is a few months older than Jack and you have been such a source of positivity, advice, and realness that I really appreciate.

  951. This is so exciting, Liz! Congratulations on the new site 🙂 I am loving it so far! All the photos are great, the new layout is really cool. Can’t wait to see even more of your adorable fam.

  952. Liz and Fam!! My favorite part about following you since the beginning was always about the family and yours and Dave’s genuine love for one another and realness about life with little ones. Those moments are true gems and I love that you share them. Obviously I love your style and fashion posts but I will always tune in to get more real like advice. Love the new site!

    Love from Boston!

I’m excited for the future for you and your blog!

  969. I’ve loved following you since I found your Instagram/ blog! As a current Chicago resident who grew up in a suburb close to your current home, I love your midwestern sincerity!

    Not many would have the courage to close such a big chapter and move on to another, albeit exhilarating, new one!
    Love the new feel of the new blog, i’m A fairly new trader, i started following when you were expecting Charlie as I was looking for stylish moms to be as I was expecting myself! I love the changes you’ve made along the way, through the years, as it really reflected your change of life and this is so refreshing! Looking forward to more of the Adams Family!

  1007. I have been an avid follower for a while now and am beyond excited for this new change! Being a fellow momma, I know how hectic like can get and we are always looking for “mom-tribe” bloggers that keep it real. Thank you for being that REAL voice. As I said, beyond excited for this new change!! 👏

  1008. Hi, a s a long time reader, who has also become a mum, I must say I’m really looking forward to more family orinented content. Love you style. Congratulations from another side of the world 🙂 (Slovenia, Europe :)).

  1009. Thank you for being real and sharing your journey! As a mom, it is heartwarming to see you transition your fashion blogging to lifestyle and real everyday moments. Congrats!

  1010. Looks so great! Excited to see the new content direction. It aligns with my current change in lifestyle too (moving to the burbs, baby on the way…eek!) so I’m happy to follow along.

  1011. Love the new site! So excited for you and the big changes you’ve made! Can’t wait to continue following along 🙂

  1012. I have enjoyed following all your stories, they’re real and relatable so it’s very exciting to see you launch this new blog. Congrats!

  1013. Love how your blog has evolved like your instagram – I am also on my 2nd child – so I can relate more to your family focused content as well! (Also love your Facebook as a go to resource!)

  1014. I know this is real general but everyone changes and evolves and so did your followers too. You still talk about fashion but now it’s more on all levels. You still talk about yourself but not it is with a kid (or 2) on your hip. Stay true to yourself. Way to go.

  1015. I love the new site! It is beautiful and easy to find stuff from so many different categories. As a mom myself, you made sequins and stripes relatedable already, but I am so excited to see this expand to all things family. Love that there is a spot for recommendations for dads/ husbands.

  1016. Love it! I admit I unfollowed you during Sequins and Stripes because it got a little boring & repetivie for me so I’m happy you have found your voice!

  1017. Aww I love the new webpage. You had been very focused on the rebranding I think and it already showed up before you made actual changes. Can’t wait to see more! Love it!

  1018. Hi Liz! The new branding + design just seem so right! Love the new look and can’t wait to see all of the new elements of the blog. The site is absolutely beautiful! Congrats!

  1019. It’s always inspiring to see someone take a risk and follow through on something that makes her happy. Thank you for being that example, and I wish you the very best of luck on your new endeavor!

  1020. Wow!! Love it!! Congrats Liz! I’ve been a reader since day one. You and your little family are such an inspiration!

  1021. Hi Liz! I love the new site. I’ve been following you since having my second boy for advice, tips and tricks! Ours are basically the same ages and it’s so fun to follow along on this crazy journey of motherhood!

  1022. I love it!! Congratulations! What an exciting time. I have been following your blog for many years now; so thrilled for you!

  1023. Congrats, Liz and family. Love the new blog. You guys are so fun to follow and I love that you share the messy, not-so-glorious parts of motherhood and raising littles. Can’t wait to read more!

  1024. Congratulations Liz on your business transformation. I have loved seeing your life grown and multiply with joy. I am also in the midst of family life and love seeing your content reflect similar experiences and interests. Happy for you!

  1025. Congrats on the new site! I discovered S&S right before getting pregnant with my first, when you announced you were pregnant with Charlie. Now pregnant with my second, I’ve enjoyed watching the journeys of the site and your family – thanks for taking us along on the ride!

  1026. I have been following you for a while now on Instagram and recently have been really loving your posts (I even have my post notifications on for you!). I’m not too big on reading up on blogs because I mostly stick to other forms of content but I honestly can see myself checking Hello Adams Family regularly and reading your posts!

  1027. Love the updates! I also moved to the suburbs and had 2 kids around the same time as you and love that the new design captures your holistic life and the direction your headed. Can’t wait to follow along for more content!

  1028. I love the new layout and overall theme of the site! It’s always fun to hear about your family, lifestyle, workouts, etc. so I’m glad to see that there’s going to be such a wide variety of content to always keep readers engaged. Congratulations!

  1036. Love your new site, Liz! I’m a newer reader and love following your journey. All your content from fashion and beauty to motherhood and everyday lifestyle is so relatable. Keep up the great work!

  1037. Love the new site and rebranding! My journey has mirrored yours (marriage, two kids, a move to the burbs, etc.), so it is great to see the progression of your blog — which I have been following and loved for years. Small side note — my husband grew up in the town you moved to and his Mom still lives there, so it has been especially fun to see this new phase for you. Looking forward to continuing to follow along. Wishing you the best of luck!

  1038. Love the new name and love hearing about you and your family. Brightens my day and real life all rolled up in one.

    My first thought when I opened it up on the desktop was “professional” but not a boring professional but a cool professional…if that makes sense (lol). I can’t wait to see what new projects and content you have up your sleeve with this redesign.

My little boy is similar in age to Jack and I’ve so enjoyed popping over to your little corner of the internet for advice and inspiration. Thanks for sharing all that you do and congrats x

  1080. I love the simplicity of it! It’s very you with the hint of pink and sense of sophistication. The only thing o would change is make the “Hello Adams Family” a more distinct font to separate it as the website name. Great job chicka congrats!!

  1095. Your new site is great! I love the ease of navigating on all the different topics and how you have a section for you, the kids and Dave under the outfits tab! Beautifully done!

  1096. I have followed sequins and stripes for a few years but never pre-Charlie (little late to the game!). Anyways, the Adams family has always been a big part of S&S so it only makes sense that the blog name changed and I love it!! The blog website update is a fresh new style. I absolutely love the sorting of topics with sub categories and it’s very user friendly 🙂 so happy for the new change!

  1097. Congratulations first on the new website!! It looks beautiful! I’ve been following you for quite a while now because I just think you and your family are the cutest!!

  1123. Fabulous new site! It is perfect. I have followed you for years and love watching your family grow and you continue to do you. Thanks for staying relatable and adorable. Xo

  1124. Love the new blog!!! So beautifully curated and a wonderful transition into your next chapter of life! Excited to keep following your journey!

  1125. I love the new site. I started following you after I had my daughter who is a week younger then Jack. My favorite part of following you is when you share about your family and all the ups and downs of being a mom! Your family is adorable and so is the new website!

  1126. Liz, I’m so excited about this change! I loved your previous blog and have no doubt that I’ll love this one as well! I can’t wait to see what you share with us!

  1129. Hi Liz! One of my very good friends and I have been following your blog and instagram for the last few years. When we started reading we were starting a new chapter in our lives (college!). Now as you begin this new chapter (!!!) we are beginning a new one of our own (real world, hello). We wish you and your family the best of luck! Xo

  1130. Love your ideas and inspiration for staying fresh, healthy and feminine as a mom of two wildly energetic boys. Also, seeing bits of Chicago remind me of the good ole days of falling in love in the best city!

  1131. Hi Liz! I am in love with your new site! I love how clean and streamlined the pages are and the photo editing is truly great! Thank you for inspiring daily ❤️

  1132. My favorite part about it is how CLEAN it all looks and how used friendly the interface is — definitely something a lot of blogs/websites are sorely lacking! Love it! ❤️

  1133. Love the new site! Seems so authentic to move to a site focused on your real life. Thanks for letting us in and all the good advice!

  1134. Love your ideas and inspiration for staying fresh, healthy and feminine as a fellow mom of two young, wildly energetic boys. Also love seeing the bits of Chicago that remind me of falling in love in the best city.

  1135. It’s beautiful & inviting! I give you all the high fives for keeping your site true to you, as you evolve. Had to be a big decision. Says a lot & it’s inspiring! ✨

  1136. Social media can be an overload about looks sometimes. About beauty, skin care and fashion. And while these things are all fun & inspiring & such a wonderful connection point, I think they should be approached differently by everyone. Because we are all so different! And that’s the best part! We are all full of so many good things, and we all have our quirks and wits, and these backbones tell our stories. This site is a space where learning to like who we are is the main goal. And I’m marveling at the humanness of it all. You created this Liz — and together with your family, you’re teaching us to be grateful, gentle, and uplifting! Inspiring us to do what makes us feel confident, pretty, and full of joy. xo

  1137. Love the new site. I love how clean and fresh it looks but I especially love your family focus. I think that you picked the perfect time of year to change it also because it is when everyone is focusing on family more.

  1138. Love it! The site it absolutely gorgeous! Light, clean, and fun! So excited for you to share more of your family life as Hello Adams Family 😊

  1139. The new site is stunning… Loving the layout and these precious photos. Thank you for sharing the realities of life. Sending your family love and light. You make a difference!

  1140. I love the new name! My favorite thing about you and your blog has always been how relatable you are and this shift is such a good reflection of that. Congratulations!!!

  1141. Beautiful post. The boys sweaters😍😍. They are so adorable…..love following your family and the fun stories. The new site is wonderful – very user friendly! Love the diversity of information. Hope the Adams family has a wonderful Christmas!

  1142. LOVE the website! I’ve loved following you and your adorable kids and all of your instagrams and your blog! You’re style is #goals and your fam is amazing. I’m veryyyy excited that you’re making this the focus! Can’t wait to see what you have to come!

  1143. So amazing to see the next step of your journey! I’m loving the recipes and gift guides. As well as always seeing your pretty, smiling face!

  1144. Yay! How exciting, Liz. Love the new site—it feels like such a clear connection to who you are. Cheers to many happy years sharing your life here! 😀

  1145. Congrats, Liz!! Love this new concept and can totally feel your passion behind it, which makes you/the site so lovable and relatable. So excited to see what’s to come!

  1146. Loving the new “Hello Adams Family” page. My favorite thing is that you stay true to yourself and it’s very inspiring! As someone who is a new mom this blog motivations me because it is very evident that you can do what you love and still raise a happy, healthy and sometimes hectic 🙂 family!

  1147. I have been a long time follower and love the look of your new site. I always like to try out new beauty products, so being able to easily access your recommendations will save so much time researching new products.

  1148. I love that it’s so much easier to find your “Living” content. Everything under that tab from your home to travel and Chicago are amazing!
    Also love that we’re going to be able to see more of Dave and your little ones.

  1149. A. Y’all’s family pics are gorgeous, but B. The new site is amazing! Also I’m looking into Ballard designs from your stories tonight. Great job and good luck with the all emotions from the site transition!

  1150. Love this transition for you and the new site is beautiful! You were right – nice on mobile but better on desktop for sure. Congrats!

  1151. Love the new site Liz, I find the navigation easy to follow and the design is chic and fun. Congrats on the change and eventhough I’m a single 20something I still love hearing about your family and cute Charlie and sweet Jack! Happy Holidays!!

  1152. Love the new lay out and content! I began following you several years ago, and just as your life has progressed, mine has as well. I’m now a momma to a 3 year old and one month old, and it’s so great to connect to another fellow mom in the same stage of life.

  1153. Love the new site! Such inspiration for our family with so many cozy and joy filled things. Thanks for sharing! ❤️

  1161. late to the party, but LOVE the new site! started following sequins and stripes about a year ago right before I had my little boy and have loved following you! Excited for the new space and to continue following you guys!

  1162. Look forward to following you and your family on the new site! 🙂

    Zania

    P.S. I had trouble leaving comments on Sequins and Stripes (it may have just been my computer) but this one seems to be working fine. 🙂
