I know I’m not alone with this thought, but towards the end of every winter (and summer, honestly) I start to get anxious for the next season. Our winter hasn’t been bad – we haven’t had too much rain or really cold weather but I’m definitely ready for spring + summer and everything that comes with warm weather. I’m also starting to shop or look at new arrivals and get excited about dressing for sunny days again. Of course that includes swimwear, so today I wanted to share some of my favorite ways to dress my swimsuits up a little…

I love a layered look with a one piece. This mesh tank is really fun and would also be cute over a bikini. I also think it’s cute when it’s a little colder and you layer a sweater on top and knot it. This one would work perfectly!

sunglasses, bikini top, sarong, bottoms

One of my favorite bikinis from last summer and it’s back in stock! I love anything crocheted and this sarong is a great price and looks good with every bathing suit!

A romper/playsuit is always an easy and cute coverup. I got this playsuit at the end of last summer and wore it quite a bit. It’s sadly sold out (fingers crossed it gets re-stocked). I found this one that’s pretty similar.

I got this beautiful coverup several years ago and it’s still one of my favorites. It makes everything instantly feel more chic and looks good with both bikinis and one piece suits.

Another favorite from last summer are these Madewell beach pants. They’re gauzy, light weight and comfortable to wear or lounge in. They come in a few other cute colors too!

I was doing some online shopping last week and came across this jumpsuit. I loved how neutral and comfortable it looked and that it was something I’d be able to wear from the end of summer through fall. I quickly ordered it for in-store pick up and was even happier with it once I tried it on. I wore it over the weekend and went back online to see if I could find anything similar. I found a couple really similar options in different colors and ended up getting this striped one.

Topshop actually has a few similar, I haven’t tried them on but since I was so happy with the fit of the two I got I can only imagine they’re similar. Here’s one in olive green and here’s one in black.

I wore the striped one out rum tasting on a yacht Monday. Typing that makes me sound a lot fancier than I am. Tuesday I was back in my momiform running errands and going to the park with the kids. It was fun while it lasted!

Since I’m loving jumpsuits so much right now I wanted to share a few others at all different price points. This one is also striped and comes in two different color ways for under $16. This one looks really comfy and still chic – comes in four colors and is under $20. This one has a higher price point but I’m loving the color for this time of year. Obsessed with this camo one, it looks so cozy! This one is super cute but looks more like overalls and it’s under $100. And lastly, I love this off the shoulder one, the print is fun too.

I’m still holding strong onto my summer wardrobe. I feel like it’s really just beginning here so don’t expect me to dip into fall just yet. At least not until I get sick of dressing like this. 🙂  Last week in Palm Springs I wore this new Tularosa romper that’s on major sale right now. There are usually amazing sales at the end of a season and this is marked down to $35. Such a steal!

I’ve loved wearing rompers as coverups this summer. A few others I love: I wore this one in Palm Springs too (seen here), a great budget friendly option that comes in a lot of colors and can be worn with a top under too, another cute one I love and this one is a cute longer option that would also work into fall.

Also, you can’t really see it but I’m wearing another sunglasses chain here. I bought this pack before our trip and loved wearing them. It’s like another piece of jewelry that actually serves a purpose. I’m hooked.

We stayed at the Parker in Palm Springs, it’s our favorite hotel that we actually got engaged at 5 years ago on the croquet lawn pictured below! Side note, can you believe I’ve had the blog this long? I’ve actually been doing this for over 7 years now. That. Is. Crazy.

But back to The Parker, the grounds are so fun to explore… they have cute little areas all around the property and it almost feels like a secret garden. No matter how many times I go back I’m always getting lost on the pathways but I’m also always finding new hidden gems around the grounds.

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

I feel like the majority of my content lately has been baby and kid focused. Which is honestly my life right now and it’s easy to get consumed by it sometimes. But I swear I’m still into fashion, trends and finding great deals on both! Today I want to share some things I’m loving right now.

Sunglasses chains. I think they’re so chic, I just bought this one because I’m still loving the shell trend, and then ended up getting this set too. We were in Palm Springs earlier this week and Jeff even ended up using one.

Summer dresses and rompers. I know a lot of bloggers are shifting their focus to fall but I’m still all about warm weather. I brought these two rompers (1 and 2) and these two dresses (1 and 2) to Palm Springs.

Fun crossbody bags. I’ve been on the hunt for a cute new bag to carry when I’m not with the kids. Love this white one with the gold hardware and this one is super cute too.

High waisted bikinis. Four months postpartum they’ve been really helping me feel like I have my summer body back even though I don’t. I just bought this cute yellow one.

Bracelet stack. I’ve been wanting some dainty gold bracelets to add to my collection and finally found some I love. I purchased this one, this one, this one and this one.

Native deodorant. I’ve been on a natural deodorant kick the past few years and switch between three I love. However, in the summer I feel like nothing compares to Native in the natural deodorant game. My favorite scent is Coconut & Vanilla but it was out of stock in store so I picked up Eucalyptus & Mint and have been loving it as well.

Woven bags. I purchased an off-white one last spring that I’ve gotten so much use out of. I just snagged this red one on sale and it also comes in black. I’m also loving this one and wish I had it for Palm Springs.

How is it already July?! The year is half over and the summer is kind of half over too… although here it feels like summer is just starting! I can’t believe the 4th of July is just two days away. It’s always been my favorite holiday, no surprise since I’m such a big summer lover. I’m looking forward to doing some festive things in the sun on Thursday. I wanted to share some outfit inspiration ahead of the day in case you’re stuck with what to wear. Each of these outfits can easily be worn all summer long.

I’m planning on wearing this body suit and these shorts in the morning and then changing into a cute red one piece swimsuit, coverup and this hat for the afternoon. I think we’ll head home before the fireworks and just watch them from the front yard after the kids are asleep. But this set would be so cute to wear if you’re looking for something cozy.

I’m all about convenience these days… going out with a newborn + a toddler and dealing with getting in and out of the stroller, car seats, carts, etc is a big ordeal. I save that for when I want to get us out of the house, more than when we actually need something. Which brings me to Amazon. What did we do without Amazon!? It’s a magical place where you can find everything under the sun and convince yourself you need it because your payment info is already saved and hello two-day shipping if you have Prime. Today I thought I’d share some of my recent Amazon purchases.

Layered shel necklace – I’m very into the shell jewelry trend this summer. I already have a few pieces but I found this fun multi-strand necklace that’s only $7.99 and immediately added it to my cart. It’ll arrive by 8 pm tonight.

Shell choker – Another shell piece I love. I ordered this one when I was pregnant but knew it would better after baby. Pregnancy and chokers don’t really go together… especially when your face is puffy. Love it for summer!

Button down dress – I’ve seen different versions of this dress on a handful of people and love the shape and practically of it. Buttons on clothes for nursing is the best. It comes in a bunch of colors/patterns, but I decided on the yellow. It’s so fun for summer!

Clear bag – This is a dupe of a much more expensive bag, but it’s super trendy. And for pieces this trendy I always look for a cheaper option. I doubt I’m going to be into clear bags for that long but right now I’m loving it. I often wish I could carry it more but it wouldn’t quite work as a diaper bag.

Palm Leaf Coverup – I’ve actually had this for awhile but want to share if you’re looking for a fun summer coverup. It’s perfect over bathing suits but it can be really chic over an all white outfit too.

Heart sunglasses – A frivolous purchase that I’ve surprisingly gotten a lot of wear out of.

Toddler romper – Crosby has this romper in Marigold and it is beyond adorable on her. Every time she wears it people stop and ask where it’s from. Less than $15 and comes in a bunch of colors. I think she needs it in lilac too.

Golden Goose dupes – Another toddler item that I’ve talked about before, but we still love these sneakers. Crosby has three pairs that have been through the trenches… literally. They’re easy to clean and have held up so well.
