We just got back from a quick little weekend getaway to Palm Desert. I love the desert in the spring the weather is the absolute best – 80 and sunny during the day and 70 at night. I was so excited to pack for a warm weather getaway and put together a little capsule wardrobe in case you’re looking for inspo for an upcoming vacation.

We’ve almost made it to my favorite season, spring! I don’t know about you but I’d be good with about two weeks of winter a year. Luckily we don’t have severe or long winters but by March I’m always ready for sunshine and warm weather. Here are my top five sellers from February.

Over the last year I’ve really gotten into basic tops. The combination of not going many places and favoring comfort/practicality has lead me to take a deep dive and try out several basic tops. Everything from tanks to long sleeves and I’ve found nine that I consider wardrobe staples and wear all. the. time. Seriously – people are probably sick of me talking about them and wearing them but when I find things I love I want to share them. I’m breaking them all down below.

Just a quick post to share my new bedding that I’m obsessed with from Boll and Branch + a discount code for 20% off that’s good until the end of the month. We have the signature sheet set in dune, the prettiest sandy beige, and the windowpane duvet set in white. They’re both made of 100% organic cotton and are so comfortable and luxe. I love the contrast of the darker beige sheets against the bright white duvet. I’m also contemplating ordering a waffle blanket to fold at the end of the bed.

I know the groundhog said there were six more weeks of winter, but it has seriously felt like spring here all week and it’s been amazing! Since the weather has been so nice we’ve been spending more time in our backyard and I realized I haven’t shared the few new changes we’ve made back there at the end of summer.

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…

Last week I styled my off white Free People pullover from my monthly staples five different ways. I’ve had this sweater for over a month now and have worn it tons of ways already. I’m a sucker for a neutral and this one really goes with everything. I’ve worn it with black, white and blue jeans, leggings and joggers and even my favorite cut off shorts in our January heatwave. It’s super comfortable for everything. If you’re not into the cream, it’s available in several other colors as well. Take a look at five ways I wore it last week.

After spending so much of the last year at home I find myself staying the rooms in my house and visualizing how I’d re-do them. One space that’s been bugging me for awhile was our den. It’s a sitting area in between our living room and dining room – the middle of our “great” room….

This week I’m highlighting the tan shacket in my staple series and I’m styling it five ways. Well, technically six if you count the pic above from when I first tried it on. This is such a versatile piece that I know I will continue to wear so many different ways. It’s not super heavy duty and more of a layer than an actual jacket, but it works for Southern California winter and could be made warmer with a thicker sweater worn under. Sizing note, it has a comfy oversized fit. If you want it to be more fitted I would suggest sizing down. I went with my normal size and it is definitely on the bigger side, but it’s super comfy to layer.

Well we made it 1/12th of the way through the year! Ha. I know yesterday was Groundhog’s Day, but truthfully every day has kind of felt like GHD for the past 11 months. Today I’m sharing myJanuary top five sellers and then at the bottom I’m also sharing my Amazon top five from the month as well.
