After a really crazy weekend last weekend, I ended up having jury duty Monday morning which I was not happy about. I could not believe how many people there were too! It was insane. And as luck would have it, I was picked to be on the jury. It was kind of a cool experience, but it was just a lot. A lot of waiting around and kind of boring. Luckily, it only lasted a day and a half and then I had to get caught up on work the rest of the week. I can say that I did it, but never want to do it again haha. I ended up ordering these sneakers after seeing them on a friend on Instagram. They are adora ..read more

Sandals | Scallop Pot | Pink Sweatshirt | Linen Top | Lace Dress | Pink and Blue Sneakers | Dogs Book | Eyelet Shorts | Blue USB Lamps | Denim Skort | Lavender Sneakers … I thought this would be kind of a fun post to do every now and then! These are things I liked and saw last week. Things I added to my cart, but haven’t necessarily bought yet. I shop a lot! And am always adding things to my carts- I love doing it. But I usually wait a day or two before I make a purchase to make sure it’s something that I really want. What I Saw and Liked Last Week I did end up ordering this pair of sneakers ..read more

I’m not really sure how we are almost to May already! This year is really flying by. Tomorrow is my blogging anniversary It’s been seven years since I started this, which is crazy! I’ve always had fun with it and do enjoy it. Although sometimes it is a lot of work! But it really is just a hobby that I do when I have free time. Hope you’ve enjoyed reading for the past seven years This week, I shared that one of my favorite photographers, Gray Malin, is launching a new book called Dogs. You can pre-order the book here and it will deliver in October. I adore his work and actually own the image ..read more

I bought this dress to wear on my girls trip to Mexico earlier this year. First off, I love it. It’s one of those easy dresses that you can wear to any event. Baby showers, bridal showers, date night, wedding guest, etc. So I knew I would wear it again which is huge for me these days. I have to be able to style things multiple ways and get a lot of use of pieces in my wardrobe. I was playing around in my closet and realized 1 dress can be styled 3 ways- casual, dressy/casual and dressy. Later this summer we have a wedding and I’m pretty sure I am going to wear it styled with these heels. The ..read more

Espadrilles … I’ve always loved a good pair of espadrilles for Spring and this pair has been my favorite for many, many years! Well sort of haha. Let me get into it. I bought this pair maybe five or six years ago and wore them all the time. They are the perfect espadrille. They are comfortable, the color goes with everything. And what I really love is that your toes are hidden! This is especially great if you are in need of a pedicure haha. I don’t always get regular pedicures or keep up with it until it gets warmer out. So these espadrilles are great if you haven’t had one- no one would kno ..read more

What a week! It started out beautiful and it was so nice to spend more time outside in the evenings. I swear we all sleep so much better when we can go on a family walk after dinner! The fresh air is so good. And then things went a little sour. Thursday night we ended up losing powder in the middle of the night. Sloane randomly woke up. I’m not sure if she heard something weird or something from her sound machine. But I got up with her and noticed my monitor in our office was flickering. I was actually really creeped out by it. For whatever reason, I decided to turn the overhead light on in t ..read more

You guys know I love J.Crew. They are always my go to and I always get so excited when they have new arrivals. I just recently placed a big order and got in a few new items that I really like. So I thought I would share four J.Crew outfit ideas I’m excited to wear this Spring! J.Crew Outfit Ideas for Spring Short Sleeve Sweater | Shorts | Espadrilles | Bag | Sunglasses I love this short sleeve sweater, but if you get it, size up! I am wearing a small and it’s a little too small for me. It’s really cropped so it feels a little short. I can’t decide if I want to return it because it’s now sold ..read more

What a week! It was a cold one I am just so ready for warmer temps. We are so much more active as a family when it’s nice out. But when it’s cold, I just want to stay cozy inside haha. On the blog last week was my Easter tablescape. We hosted Easter dinner and while my table decor looked really pretty, I was a little bummed with out my roast beef turned out. It was my first time making it so I had no idea what I was doing haha. It was good, but not the best. I also shared this post about my Quince sweaters that I own. They are a newer to me brand, but I am loving them. The quality is so good ..read more

Quince has become my go to retails for sweaters. Not only are their sweaters so good (SO GOOD), but they are incredibly affordable. You may know that I have quite the collection of sweaters. I really just love a good sweater haha. A few years ago when we had a flood in our basement and I lost quite a bit of my personal favorites It was a really sad day haha. Over the years, I’ve had to rebuild and that’s how I discovered the retailer Quince. They are so affordable (all of these sweaters are under $50!), but they aren’t lacking in quality. I have worn all of these so much already and the fit ..read more

This week I felt kind of uninspired with outfits so lots of activewear! You might have missed my post on Tuesday, but I found so many cute new activewear pieces for Spring that I’m loving. I got a fun package in the mail from Manicurist. They sent me some new nail polish. You can see what colors I got in this post here. Last year they sent me the whole system to do a gel manicure at home. It’s a little pricey at first, but worth it in the end. I actually prefer doing my nails myself now which I never thought I would say! You can do it on your own time and how you like them. A gel manicure is ..read more
