Shopbop is having their spring sale now through March 8th. It’s one of my favorite times to stock up on items that rarely (if ever) go on sale. And the more you spend, the more you save.

Jewelry:

You know how much I love Gorjana, and all of her pieces are included in the sale. Some of my favorites I wear all the time are this dainty star necklace, adjustable bracelet, coin pendant necklace (pictured above), lock chain necklace, gold huggies, coin necklace, and crescent pendant (I’ve had this one for about 5 years and continue to wear it all the time).

I’m a big fan of the shell jewelry trend and some pieces I’m eying are… this gold bracelet, shell barrette and pink bracelet. 

Denim:

My two current favorite pairs of high-waisted jeans are both included in the sale. The Agolde Jamie jeans (left) and Levi’s 501 Skinny (right). Both pairs are lighter wash, slightly distressed and can be worn tons of different ways.

I ordered two pairs of Agolde shorts and only plan to keep one pair. The Parker vintage cuttoffs and Parker vintage loose fit.

Dresses:

We’re going out Friday night to celebrate a friends birthday and I’m debating between two dresses in my closet. I’ve been wanting to wear both! The first is this sequin fringe dress from BB Dakota (pictured above), I love how unique it is. The second is this vegan leather dress from Rebecca Taylor, it’s such a great LBD and I know I’ll continue to wear it and love it for years.

Swim:

I’ve always been obsessed with swimwear and have more bikinis than I could ever wear. I love buying new ones every year and this neon green smocked bikini (top, bottoms) is my latest that I cannot wait to wear. I’m going to Tulum in a couple months and will definitely be bringing it. I also just got this leopard top and matching shorts that’s a really cute alternative to a coverup. Plus my favorite pom pom coverup is included in the sale and comes in 3 different colors.

*these sunglasses have been a favorite of mine for the past 5 years.

Odds & Ends:

• I wear these spanx faux leather leggings a few times a week and love them so much. They’re incredibly flattering and can even be dressed up.
• I love Clare V. bags in the spring and summer, this tote is one of my favorites.
• Another spring/summer staple of mine is this clutch from Cult Gaia.
• I’ve almost purchased these white mules so many times, I think they’re so versatile, they also come in snake print.

Ever since we announced our pregnancy I’ve gotten a lot of questions about if we know the gender. I mentioned in this post, but we did a blood test back in September and actually found out then. I did a poll on IG stories the other day asking what you thought we were having and the results came back an even split. Exactly the same number of votes for a girl and same for a boy. What are the odds?! We plan to spill the beans soon… but first I thought it would be fun to test out some gender predicting old wives tales.

Sickness

If you have morning sickness or nausea it’s most likely a girl. I haven’t had any… but I didn’t with Crosby either.

Results: BOY

Baby Heart Rate

Under 140 bpm means you’re having a boy and above 140 means girl. This babies heart rate has kind of been all over the place… sometimes above and sometimes below. The last ultrasound it was 138, so we’ll go with that.

Results: BOY

Salty vs. Sweet Cravings

Salty cravings mean boy and sweet means girl. At first I just wanted junk food… both salty and sweet. Now I’d say it’s mostly sweet… I could eat chocolate, peanut butter and sour candy all day.

Results: GIRL

Carrying High vs. Low

Girls are said to be high and boys are low. It’s kind of hard to tell, but after seeing these pics I think I’m carrying high.

Results: GIRL

Chinese Gender Chart

There are a few different versions online. I went off of this one where you enter your lunar age and lunar month of conception.

Results: GIRL

Ring Test

Tie your ring around a strand of your hair or a string, lie down and hang it over your belly. If the ring moves in a circular motion, it’s a girl. If it moves in a back-and-forth motion, it’s a boy.

Results: GIRL

Eye Vain

Pull down your eyelid and see if you have a “V” or “Y” shaped vein in the bottom of your eyeball. If you have it on the left side, it’s a girl. Or on the right side, boy.

Results: GIRL

Ring over Palm 

Place your ring on a strand of your hair. Tap in down into your left palm three times. If the ring moves left to right, it’s a boy and circles, it’s a girl. Once it stops, tap 3 times again. Continue to do this until the ring doesn’t move. It’s gives you how many children you will have in the order of their gender.

Results: BOY

Clumsy vs. Graceful

If your clumsy you’re having a boy and if you’re graceful it’s a girl. I haven’t noticed being more clumsy than normal.

Results: GIRL

Hair

If your hair is thick and glossy, it’s a boy. If it’s dull and limp, it’s a girl.

Results: BOY

Total: 4 for Boy and 6 for Girl = GIRL

Check back next week to see if these were accurate. 🙂

Thanks for reading – have you done any of these silly tests?

Happy Monday! I just wanted to share a quick post with a few of my favorite sunglasses for summer. Who am I kidding – they’re year round wear but I think these five pairs are especially fun for summer. 🙂

1. Ray-Ban Aviators – These are a great everyday pair. I went with black for this frame, but they come in all the classic Ray-Ban shades as well.
2. White heart shaped sunnies – I bought these for a shoot a few months back and can’t stop wearing them. I’d been loving the white sunglasses trend but knew I didn’t want to invest. These are only $10!
3. Ray-Ban Hexagonal Flat Lens– My mother’s day gift that I can’t stop wearing. I love the classic shape and color of these, they seriously go with everything!
4. Rose gold aviators – these are from last summer and are no longer available but I found a few similar pairs (for a steal). These are only $14 and come in 5 other colors too and these are another great option for the same steal.
5. Karen Walker Super Dupers – I splurged on this pair several years ago and they’ve been worth it. The frame is a bit heavy, so I don’t wear them for too long, but they’ve held up so well through the years.

Hope you have a great week! I’m looking forward to getting Crosby and I back on schedule after two back-to-back trips and a mid-week holiday. We’re off to baby gym class!

jacket, jeans

It’s a big week for spring sales! And kicking it off is the Shopbop sale. I always love when they do a sale, so many items that normally wouldn’t be marked down are.

I’ve always loved a romper. A few years back I was on a major romper kick and they were pretty much all I wore that spring and summer. I’ve dialed the obsession back a bit and don’t wear them quite as much, but this one is really cute and I wanted to share.

Today’s outfit is a mix and match jumble of some of my current favorites for a more casua,l but still festive, look. I was thinking something like this would be really easy to re-create with items from your own closet. A cute top, comfy cardigan and high-waisted jeans are my go-to’s when I want to look put together without much effort.
