We're taking family photos next week and I'm so excited. We haven't taken photos of the four of us with a photographer in over a year and it's crazy how much bigger the kids are now. Wilder looks like a completely different baby. It might be the former stylist in me, but I enjoy picking out our family outfits for the photos. I wanted to share some tips if you're taking family photos soon.

One of my most frequently asked questions is where I buy Crosby’s clothes. The answer is everywhere! There are honestly so many cute baby lines. We’re lucky enough to live in an area with lots of baby stores and we seem to see it all. So I wanted to break down some of my favorites.

This Monday came a little too soon for my liking. We had another productive weekend doing things around the house and I’m excited to be that much closer to having everything DONE.
This LBD is a bit different from what I’d normally pull, but I’m loving it’s casual easy-breezy vibe. I’m not gonna lie, a drop-waist kind of intimidated me at first. I’m 5’4″ with a long torso and short legs and I thought it would just draw attention to that. Instead of taking the easy way out and pairing it with high heels, I decided to do the opposite and wear flats. I think it’s safe to say I concurred my drop-waist fear. Bring it on!
Well it was another hot one in Orange County this weekend. But that didn’t stop me from busting out one of my favorite fall trends, the sleeveless trench! I might be rushing it a little… when I came out of my cloffice dress liked this Jeff asked if I was wearing a costume. Probably because it was pushing 100 degrees, but sleeveless is okay right?!
Let’s also talk about another new obsession of mine… Shoes of Prey. When I found out I could create a pair of shoes exactly to my liking, I was over the moon. I got to work and these babies are what I came up with. Tassels, gold, snakeskin and pink might seem like a lot to some but I think they’re just perfect. Can’t wait to see how many outfits I can pair them with!
If loving a poncho/cape is wrong, I don’t wanna be right.
I have been on board with this trend all fall and winter long and just love how versatile they are. This color blocked version is my alternative to the Burberry Cape that made the rounds this fall. I wasn’t about to drop that much on something so trendy but still lusted after it. Luckily I found an alternative that won’t break the bank. The best part is you honestly feel like you’re wearing a blanket… and sometimes I wear it over my pj’s at home when I’m cold. Now I just need to get my initial monogramed on it.
