I am very into color right now. I think it’s a combo of spring weather and a few years of being neutral obsessed, but I’m not complaining – bring on the color! I’ve been seeing fun pops of color in spring tops and want to share a few I have and love.

Pastel Ombre Sweater

sweater, jeans, shoes

This exact sweater is available here (currently on sale) and here. I love the soft pastels for spring. It will be so cute with white jeans and denim shorts too!

Pink Floral One Shoulder Top

top, sunglasses, jeans, bag

Such a cute asymetrical pink floral top for spring. Can be dressed up or down!

Bright Mesh Sweater

sweater

This is an amazon find. It’s cropped but hits right at the waist band of high-rise jeans.

Cropped Crochet tank

tank, shorts

I brought this top to Mexico and wore it over a bikini with cut off shorts.

Lavender Button Up Cardigan

cardigan

Love this pretty cardi for spring. Can be worn buttoned all the way up or open like a cardigan.

Happy December! This holiday season feels a lot more festive than last year – so many fun events scheduled. I’m mapping out my outfits and wanted to share five different looks for different kinds of holiday parties. Everything from casual, to glam, to glam pajamas! Something for everyone and every event.

The sun is finally shining but we’re still bundled up over here. It seems like it’s been the longest and most real winter we’ve ever had. It was like 50 degrees yesterday. Our winter clothes are getting a lot of use! I wore this faux fur BB Dakota coat all weekend… even around the house. It’s been a favorite for months, but I’m looking forward to swapping it out for something a lot lighter soon I hope. We cannot wait for warm weather!

on Crosby: similar bow, jacket, t-shirt, leggings, shoes 

We had a photoshoot to celebrate Crosby’s first real donut! She has an egg allergy and has only vegan donuts, but this weekend we decided to try a real one and see if she had any reaction. We only let her have a couple bites, but she didn’t get a rash or itchy like she used to. Fingers crossed that she’s over her allergy. A lot of times kids outgrow them by the time they’re two so we’ll see. I’m going to try a few more baked goods with eggs in them before her Birthday in hopes of her having a regular (not allergy free) cake this year.

How cute are Crosby’s leopard leggings?! I got them at Target last week for $5 and she’s already worn them a few times. I love her in leopard and they coordinate so well with my leopard sneakers… a designer dupe that are also a steal.

Hope your week is off to a good start – thank you so much for reading and following!

Here’s a look at a typical easy summer outfit for me. As I mentioned yesterday, I’m dressing to beat the heat in cutoff shorts and breezy tops.

It was getting a little repetitive so last week I stopped into Forever 21 and found a few new things. One being this top. I absolutely loved everything about it… especially the color. Sometimes sizing is a little strange at F21 and I found that to be the case with this top. It’s really loose and wide and desperately needs to be taken in. But until I can get around to bringing it to a tailor, I did a little styling trick with some safety pins. It’s fixed… for now.

I also wanted to share my summer reading list. I used to be an avid reader, but as I got older and my life got busier I didn’t have as much time to get into a book. Something changed this summer. I’ve read about three books in the past month and have a list of recommendations I still want to get to.

I typically go for fun, light reads and read when I’m by the pool or at the beach. Well, that was before Crosby. Now I read before bed or if I’m all caught up on work and she’s napping.

All We Ever Wanted – Emily Giffin (always love Emily Giffin’s books and this was no exception)

When Life Gives You Lululemons – Lauren Weisberger (a sort of sequel to The Devil Wear’s Prada, fun light read)

The Party – Robyn Harding (really suspenseful, but I loved it)

All The Missing Girls (reading this now)

The Woman In Cabin 10 – Ruth Ware

Small Great Things – Jodi Picoult

My Husband’s Wife – Jane Corry

The French Girl  – Lexie Elliot

The Marriage Lie – Kimberly Belle

Last week I got to sneak away to a fun dinner at Pacific Edge Hotel with Show Me Your Mumu. I’ve always loved this brand – they’re LA based and have the most fun bright prints. I knew I had to take this dress home with me.

Happy Friday, friends! I’m slowing turning into a flower child over here one flower post at a time…

I wasn’t kidding when I said I packed an outfit change for the visit to the flower fields. I’m the queen of changing in the car these days. I knew this dress would be pretty there and I hadn’t had a chance to shoot it for the blog yet so it was an easy choice. It’s only $27 and comes in two other colors. I’m not usually a purple person, but this lavender is SO pretty! Size wise it runs a little big… I’m wearing a small and had to do some minor alterations. You know, top stick and safety pins. 🙂
