I’m really obsessed with bougainvillea right now. Like, I want to take a photo of it everywhere I see it. We have this big white fence on our side yard that you can see from our dining room and kitchen and I’ve wanted to grow bougainvillea on it for a while now. About a month ago Crosby and I went to Home Depot to buy some small vines to put in pots in hopes that one day they’d take over the fence.

Stop. I know what you’re thinking… another gingham off the shoulder top?! Let me explain, this one takes the cake for all gingham tops this summer. It’s light weight (i.e. wearable in hot weather), comfortable, on-trend AND it stays in place. Plus it has this cute ruffle that not only goes over the cheast but also the sleeves.

Summer has always been my favorite season, there are just so many fun things to celebrate! I also love how my personal style is a bit more low maintenance when it’s hot. I kind of give my hair and skin a breather by spending less time heat styling and putting on much makeup and embrace a more natural look. The same holds true style-wise too and I wanted to share my go-to summer wardrobe staples. Each of these pieces can be mixed and matched and styled in so many different ways. This would also be a great packing outline if you’re heading out of town in the summer months! continue reading

Lately the most worn item in my closet has been this pair of cutoffs. They’re a little high waisted which is perfect for my post-pregnancy body that’s still hanging on to a few extra pounds. Also they’re what I missed wearing the most when I was pregnant and couldn’t wait to try them on once I got home from the hospital. I’ve been loving them paired with cute tops, like this one. It’s such an effortless look that’s perfect for a weekend brunch, BBQ or just a day spent running errands since it’s a grab and go look. continue reading

A huge trend for spring is bell sleeve, or trumpet sleeves… whatever you want to call them. I can’t get enough of tops with these dramatic sleeves and wanted to share my favorites. I actually got this baby blue one last spring and still wear it all the time. It’s practically sold out but I found a few really similar options if they don’t have it in your size. Linking them all below!
