It’s no secret I love a bell sleeve top. But add in some pink velvet, pleats and bows and I’m even more obsessed. This pullover is a fun, but casual, statement piece that’s under $20.

If there was a bag of the summer last year it was this one. It was everywhere. I’ll admit, at first that turned me away from it but the more I continued seeing it, the more I wanted it. I held out last summer thinking maybe it was just a fad that would disappear… but they’re back in a major way.

Happy Monday! I wanted to start the week with an extra bright and cheery look. On Friday we had to be out of our house all day so we drove up the coast on a little adventure. I’d walked through this candy-colored village with a friend just a few days before and knew I wanted to shoot something fun there. This sweater is equally colorful, but still stood out amongst the surroundings.

About this time of year I start getting excited for all things spring. In a few weeks stores usually start bringing out their spring – if they haven’t already. And lucky for me, over the weekend we had the best weather. It was 75 and sunny both days and really felt like spring. It’s cloudy and cold again now but it was nice while it lasted. I was able to wear that outfit with sandals – so nice.

And just like that Crosby is 10 months old! Her first Birthday is so close, it’s bittersweet. This month she’s gotten a lot stronger and is closer to walking. She also cut her first two teeth! We were wondering when those would make an appearance.
