Tis the week, or season I guess, for sales! I know typically you think of Black Friday as the kickoff for “cyber week,” but it seems like lots of retailers start their sales early. One of my favorite places to shop online is Shopbop and today they started their “Buy More Save More Sale.” I wanted to share my favorite pieces I own and love that are included.

But first here’s a breakdown of the sale info…

I do a lot of shopping on Shopbop. They carry so many of my favorite brands like BB Dakota, Wayf, Agolde, Gorjana, Levis, etc. I’m including photos I’ve taken with pieces that I’ve worn over the past few months.

Happy Halloween! My post today isn’t all that festive, but I’m getting ready for a fun night of trick to treating with Crosby. I think she just might understand the concept and end up with a complete sugar high. Fingers crossed she’ll actually wear her butterfly costume that she’s been talking about for the past month.

I think this is my last round of photos we shot in Big Bear… you can tell it was a few weeks ago by my long hair. I’m loving having it short, it’s been about ten years since it was this length and it’s so much fun and seems a lot healthier.

This was such an easy outfit that’s simple but feels put together. Sometimes I feel like an outfit is either one of the other, but this boyfriend plaid blazer really helped pull together this outfit.

Over the weekend Crosby turned two and a half and we celebrated with donuts and coffee at the beach. Does anyone else celebrate half birthdays? She’s obsessed with birthdays right now but doesn’t quite get what a half birthday is. Ha!

I got this dress in the mail last week and thought it would be perfect for a fall wedding. I currently have zero on my calendar so I took it as an excuse to dress up for our outing. Crosby has had this adorable dress from Loveshackfancy just burning a whole in her closet for over a year now. It finally almost fits so she wore it for the half bday celebration. It’s definitely a dress she will be able to wear for awhile since it’s so long. She has another one that’s white and sleeveless that will be just as cute.

Wanted to share a few other dresses I’m loving for fall weddings or special occasions.

• This one is perfect for a night time event. Would even work into the holiday season.
• Love this long sleeved mini. Prettiest colors for fall!
• Love this red leopard print. Would be so cute for an evening event.
• I tried this one on over the summer and was obsessed with the fit. It comes in several colors appropriate for wedding guests and would be pretty for the holidays too.
• If you’re looking for lace, I love this one for fall/winter.

I’m such a warm weather girl and spring and summer are my favorite seasons. If it’s cool or rainy for any real length of time I’m not myself. Over the past couple of weeks I’ve gotten a few new spring pieces that I’m excited about. It’s been a little chilly here lately and all I want is for it to warm up so I can wear them!

dress, clutch, slides

I wore this dress to a mommy and me tea party a few weeks ago and then again on Mother’s Day. It’s such a fun statement. Mine was gifted by Allison New York and I can’t find it online, however Chicwish makes a version of it that looks practically identical which I’ve linked.

top c/o, jeans

This top! It’s even prettier in person. I can’t wait to wear it with cutoffs this summer, but for now I wore it inside with my stretchiest pair of jeans and instantly felt happier.

dress c/o

The prettiest dress I’ve seen in awhile. This would work for so many occasions. Dressed up for a wedding, for a bridal or baby shower with wedges or more casually with a denim jacket and sneakers.

dress c/o, bag, similar slides

I wore this dress in Palm Springs a few weeks ago when our best friends got engaged. It’s such a cute mini with ruffles at the sleeves and hem. I went for “Palm Springs casual” with slides here but it’s also something that could be dressed up and worn to multiple occasions.

dress c/o

Another dress I absolutely love and can’t wait to wear out of  my house. You have to see the back of this one… it criss-crosses and laces up in the prettiest way.

hat, t-shirt, denim jacket, skirt c/o, similar bag, similar slides

I wore this fun green midi to a friend’s birthday at a bar a few weeks ago. It was actually Jeff and my first time away from both kids since we had Wilder and I definitely enjoyed that glass of rose. Midi skirts have really been having a moment lately and I love that this one is a little different. The green is so fun for summer.

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.

sunglasses, tshirt, cardigan c/o, shorts, sandals c/o

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.

This summer has been kind of a blur. Not necessarily busy everyday but we’ve done a lot! I just realized I had several outfits I posted on instagram that never made it to the blog. In a perfect world, I’d get dressed everyday and take pics… but let’s be honest, that doesn’t happen. We used to shoot a few looks on the weekends that I would blog during the week. Now, life is a bit busier and we’re lucky to do one or two (on top of campaigns and other things we’re working on). Anyway… today I’m sharing the outfits that I almost let get away.

dress, shoes c/o, bag

I wore this last month to the wedding we went to in Napa. The dress code was “pastels and near-whites,” which totally stumped me. Not quite a white party so I was uncomfortable going too light and stuck with blush.

bralette, old cami (similar), shorts, cardigan

A lazy day outfit I can’t wait to repeat soon. This cardigan was my favorite Nordstrom Anniversary Sale buy… just need the weather to cool off a bit to be able to wear it.

my romper and shoes

Crosby’s onesie, shorts, socks and shoes

Is there anything cuter than a toddler in tube socks? If so I’m unaware. Crosby and I got dressed and hit the court a few weeks ago. And by “hit the court” I mean took out her mini ball and headed to our local basketball court to shoot pics, not hoops.

tshirt, jeans

My first born doesn’t always get the love she deserves these days. Unless you count her sister trying to sit on her and love her a little too aggressively. We both savor Crosby’s nap time…. for different reasons.

similar hat, tank c/o, shorts, sandals c/o, bike

One of my favorite purchases this summer was my beach cruiser. We haven’t gotten to ride them too much yet but cruising around the neighborhood is my favorite way to spend an evening.

A couple of weeks ago we were lucky enough to attend the premiere for “Crazy Rich Asians.” Our talented  friend was actually the director. So fun to get out and go to a premiere… it’s been years. We loved the movie!

Last week I went to a fun event at Kate Somerville. I love KS skin care and this event was to celebrate their new retinol serum.
