Ivy Jean you are two and a HALF! I can hardly believe it. We celebrated your half birthday with a half cake just like we did the previous two years (here and here). This year you helped me make the cake and put the sprinkles on yourself. I make a lot of mistakes, but I am getting the cake part right. Your Gamma taught me that. You are FULL of personality, and I would be lying if I didn’t admit that…
As you may have noticed, I have been on a pretty big shorts kick lately. I have probably worn more shorts in the last month than I have ever worn in my whole life. True statement. It’s a combination of not working anymore, having a toddler who always wants to be outside, and living in Oklahoma where it is already 80-90 degrees. It’s just reality right now. Sometimes the only thing that works is a pair of shorts. So I…
I have been on a pretty major leopard kick here lately. This leopard t-shirt and jeans are the ones from my American Eagle try on post last week. I love these mom jeans! They are real denim, i.e. not a stretchy type but also not as thick as some I’ve tried like Levi’s. It makes them super comfortable. Plus, they are only $49 which is pretty rare for jeans. This t-shirt is also super soft and easy to wear with…
I seriously could not be more obsessed with these pull on leopard shorts. They feel like gym shorts!! SOOO comfy! They are on sale for only $26 right now! I bought the leopard and the olive green. I showed the olive green on my American Eagle try on session on Monday’s post with a full post coming soon. I’ve already worn them both as they are just super practical with Ivy Jean and also really cute. Honestly, I highly recommend them! I also…
How much fun is this adorable flirty ruffled floral tank top by WAYF? If you are a long time reader, you know they are a favorite brand of mine! The bottom hem is slightly asymmetrical meaning you really do need to wear it with a high waisted pair of jeans. I picked my favorite pair by Madewell which you have seen on the blog before several times (here and here). Together they make the perfect spring date night outfit idea.…
I am so excited to be teaming up with the fabulous Cyndi of Cyndi Spivey to show you how to wear paperbag shorts! This fun waist band is all over lately and for good reason – it is incredibly flattering and easy to wear! Cyndi and I thought it would be fun to give you a couple different looks at ways to style a similar item. Be sure to check out her post to see her take on the look.…
I popped into American Eagle the other day after seeing so many bloggers posting things from there recently and was amazed at what I found!! To be sure, there are things that are too young for me, but I found some things I really love. I came home with way more than I expected, and it is all so affordable. Mostly under $35 except the jeans which are under $50. I thought today I would share a quick American Eagle…
These are seriously the best denim shorts EVER. I am pretty picky when it comes to shorts, but I am embracing them like never before this summer. It’s new to me to not be working and have a very active 2.5 year old during the warmer months. We are outside A LOT. This week in Oklahoma it has been in the mid-80s to low 90s already. What?! I am honestly not sure I am going to survive summer. You are going…
This is seriously the comfiest olive jumpsuit. I took a leap of faith an ordered it for $33 on Amazon (prime shipping), and I’m obsessed. It’s a thick cotton, i.e. no lines or cheap feeling. It’s seriously perfect for running errands and feeling like you are in your pjs. I wore it all day with Ivy Jean too and felt like a cute mom while also feeling super comfortable. It comes in 4 colors too. As for size, I got…
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good jean short. While chasing a toddler, I definitely need a casual pair of shorts for the summer months. However, I don’t know about you all, sometimes those feel pretty casual and almost a little young for me. Especially the ones that are short. And most of them are short – especially when you are 5’10”. That is why I have been on the hunt for dressy shorts for women. Enter these adorable…
