I’m 38.5 weeks pregnant and every day I think it could be my last day before baby boy is born. Not that I’m feeling 100% ready… but do you ever? I’ve also officially made it longer in this pregnancy than I did in my pregnancy with Crosby, as she was born at 38 weeks and 3 days! So wild to think about. I’ll definitely be trying to take advantage of this weekend in case it’s our last weekend as a family of 3!

Now that it’s spring and the weather has been cooperating I’ve been living in dresses, just like I wanted this whole pregnancy. Pants are so uncomfortable at this point… even leggings. Luckily I stocked up on a bunch of dresses to get me through the end of this pregnancy. This blue one was a great addition and is less than $13! Such a great steal. It also comes in black for your basic LBD needs.

I got this hat about a month ago and have worn it so much ever since. It’s probably over-featured on my Instagram at this point. Oops! I just love everything about it… the color, shape, fit… it’s the perfect hat for spring and summer. Plus I do my hair as little as possible and it really helps me feel more put together.

I also want to talk about this clutch! I got it at the Gray Malin event I mentioned in my last post. I’m loving that it’s wearable art and if you look closely, you can see it’s a nude beach. So funny! He actually has a few different prints on clutches. You can see more here.

Hope you have a great weekend – thank you so much for reading and following!

Spring is my favorite season overall and to dress for. There’s just something so refreshing about spring clothing… especially after the long winter that we had this year. I’m not currently buying a lot of spring clothing just yet (because 9 months pregnant), but I’m definitely doing a fair amount of browsing and picking up things I know will work now and in a couple months (ie bags, hats and shoes). I wanted to share what’s on my spring radar.

Shell jewelry: I’ve been loving seeing this throw back trend popping up again. I just got this shell choker form amazon and want a bracelet or anklet too. So fun for spring and summer!

Clear tote bags: Another fun trend for spring are clear tote bags like this one. I first spotted it on Shopbop but found an amazing dupe on amazon for a fraction of the cost.

Macrame: Always hot this time of year. I picked up this bag on a recent trip to F21 and have already used it a hand full of times.

Hats: Again, always a favorite during the warmer months. Some new additions to my closet this year are this hat – didn’t have anything like it color-wise in my closet and know I’ll wear it a ton. It also comes in honey. and this black hat from F21. Both are under $50 and great spring/summer staples that will sell out.

What I’m looking forward to wearing again post baby…

High waisted denim: Both shorts and jeans. These shorts have been on my radar the past couple of years and I’m thinking of finally pulling the trigger on them this year. Of course, I need to wait until after I have the baby and see what size I’m wearing before I order, but I know they’ll be a great staple. I’m also dying to get back into my Levi’s. I have this pair in 2 sizes so hopefully I’ll be able to wear the bigger one first and then transition back into the smaller pair.

I wanted to do a quick post today to share some of my recent fall outfits. I’m kind of starting to dress more for fall and that’s reflected mostly by the colors I’ve been wearing. Darker hues with some pops. I’m loving mustard or marigold… whatever you want to call it.

We wore these outfits out to dinner last week and had to snap a pic. My top is so soft and I love the color. Crosby was especially cute in her matching set.

I wore this dress to Jeff’s high school reunion over the weekend. I was at a loss for what to wear before I got it in the mail. Once I tried it on I knew it would be perfect.

Here’s another view straight on. You can wear it a different way by tying the neck tie around your neck, but I prefer it hanging.

It’s still a battle to keep anything on the coffee table with a toddler, but I’m trying! These coasters get thrown around the room when she’s playing, but since they’re leather it’s not really a problem.

I’ve been loving this top, seen above with shorts and below with jeans. It’s absolutely perfect for fall and super flattering.

I’m always a fan of duster cardigans. Love that this one is light weight and a great neutral. It goes with so many things in my closet.

We just got back from a long weekend in Napa Valley. It was our first weekend away since Crosby was born… crazy, right?! We went up for a friend’s wedding and made a long weekend out of it. We arrived Thursday morning and I changed out of my travel clothes into this cute white tassel romper.

I love an easy outfit like this and it was really perfect for our day. We started out with lunch and then went to a few wineries before we checked into our hotel and got ready for the first weekend wedding festivity. It was really hot and humid up there, but I was perfectly comfortable in this light-weight romper.

Now that it’s practically August it’s getting towards the end of summer. Although it will still be hot here until November, I know it’s not necessarily like that in other parts of the country. Sometimes dressing for the end of the season is hard. You really don’t want to buy anything new, but you’re sick of all your clothes. Or is that just me? Regardless, I still try to switch it up and do so by buying a few things late in the season. The trick is to find things that you can wear again next year.

Although this romper is a bit trendy with the tassels and cutouts, I know I’ll wear it again because it’s a good summer staple. I feel that way about a lot of rompers in my closet, as I reach for them year after year once it gets warm.

As I get older I realize how much I thrive on a schedule and I’m really looking forward to getting back on track this week. Hope you have a great one!

Happy Summer Solstice and longest day of the year! I thought it was only appropriate to wear this total summer look on the blog today. I wore this to the beach a couple weeks ago and stopped for some photos on the way home. So please excuse my post-beach-day sweat/glow. The hat and sunglasses were definitely needed. HA!

This Tiare Hawaii skirt is a new addition to my closet, but I think I’ll be wearing it a lot of different ways this summer. It’s slightly high-waisted (but I pulled it up higher so it wouldn’t be too long). There’s a coordinating crop top that could be worn with it for a really cute matchy-matchy look… or you could mix a variety of colored tops with it to suit your mood.

I’d never worn a high-waisted skirt as a swim coverup before, but I think I like it! This new suit from PilyQ is really fun for summer. I love how much coverage the top provides. As I mentioned, I wore it to the beach this day (here’s what the bikini looks like here without the skirt) and was comfortable running around chasing Crosby in the sand. What. A. Workout.

I also want to mention I’m currently doing a Beek Sandal giveaway on my instagram. I love these sandals so much. I’ve had this pair for over a year and whenever my girlfriend Shelby and I get together with our babies we seem to do a lot of walking. In the warmer months I always wear my Beeks for this and have never gotten a blister or been uncomfortable. We go to the beach and walk for miles sometimes. I love these sandals because they have a wooden sole and mold to your feet the more you wear them. They’re locally made in Newport and come in so many really cute styles. You can see them all here.
