Nothing is scarier than the moment someone is looking for the nearest adult and in the midst of looking for your mom, you realize YOU are the grown up. This week's episode is an homage to all the things we do on a daily basis that make us feel like dignified adults in the hopes of bolstering our self confidence the next time we do something not-so-adultish. We've gathered examples from our own lives, as well as some that you shared so we can come together and all feel like A+ grown ups.

We don’t know about you, but we spent our preteen days cutting pictures out of Better Homes and Gardens magazine and pasting pages together to make up dream houses. This week’s episode is an homage to those times as we’re entering into the home buying, and decorating, season. We won’t be raving about shabby chic like we did when we were 12, but we will be discussing our favorite modern day home decor trends and how we (and you) can practically implement them at home.

We're super curious by nature (which is actually just a nice way to say we're super nosy). Regardless of how you phrase it, we just really enjoy hearing how other women spend their time. We think there's value in learning how other people spend their time to help us evaluate how we spend our own in an attempt to be a little more deliberate with the 24 hours we're given each day. That's why this week's episode is dedicated to hashing out our own daily routines. From the practices we've worked hard to cultivate to the habits we have that we'd like to kick, we're sorting through it all. Our hope is that by listening you won't just hear us talk about ourselves, but use it as a tool to think about your own daily routines.

The weather is finally starting to acknowledge that is in fact spring. That means we're starting to veer away from the chilis and the soups and starting to embrace the salads and the tapas. We love a good light bite here at KK, so this week's episode is an homage to our favorites. Whether you're looking for a crowd pleasing appetizer, the perfect spring salad, or the best way to use up that extra box of thin mints left in your freezer, this episode will leave you HUNGRY by the end. So listen up and then head to the grocery store because we'll leave you well fed for the rest of the week.

Bill Withers said it best when he urged us to 'lean on me, when you're not strong, and I'll be your friend, I'll help you carry on.' Though not a girlfriend, we can relate to his sentiment of being a good friend in times of need. This week we're diving into all the ways you can help a sister out in the hard times by sharing the most helpful ways people have shown up in our own lives and the way we try to do so ourselves.

Have you ever found yourself standing in the wine aisle at the grocery store overwhelmed by all the choices? Have you ever wondered "what the heck is a tannin and why should I care?" Have you ever wondered what the difference is between a merlot and cabernet? Well, friend, you're in good company because most people feel self-conscious about their lack of wine knowledge, but they're too embarrassed to ask these seemingly simple questions. This week, we're joined by our resident wine expert who just so happens to be married to KA, and he's answering all your wine questions. Tune in and soak up all the information you can, and then go and impress your friends at your next party.

This week's episode is our first recurring episode! We're sharing our second installment of all the things we're loving this spring in an effort to usher in this new season and maybe give mother nature a wake up call that it IS indeed spring. You'll have to excuse the brevity of this episode, for reasons KB explains at the beginning of the show and you're bound to understand upon listening. Despite the length, we still believe this episode is jam packed with ideas to get you in the mood for spring. 

We’re getting real on The Kitschy Kountdown today. We’re confessing some things that would honestly be easier left unsaid, but in the spirit of being the friends who go first, we’re laying it all out on the line. Don’t worry, we’re not admitting to murder or anything of that caliber, we’re just sharing some things going on in our lives in the hopes that you can listen and think “I thought I was the only one” while sighing with relief that you’re not.

Do you ever just look at fashion bloggers on Instagram or stare at a really trendy girl in a coffee shop and think “how did you learn to dress so cute?” Yeah, us too. We may not be fashion bloggers, but we have learned a thing or two about fashion and shopping since the bleak days of layering Old Navy tank tops with our flared jeans and calling that “style.” This week we’re sharing our top tips for finding clothes that work for you, where to invest and where to skimp, and maybe sharing a few fashion mishaps along the way.

It's that time of year when you look down at your calendar and realize that every weekend between now and July is booked with a shower or a wedding for someone in your life. And for some of you, you've been elevated from guest to hostess. But what's a girl to do when the planning process feels overwhelming and there are so many do's and don't's? Listen to The Kitschy Kountdown, that's what. This week we're diving into all things showers. From invitations to attire to menus, we're giving you the run down on how to shower your friends with love and truly be the hostess with the mostest.
