At the start of 2020 who knew a face mask would be the hottest accessory of the year?! It still seems crazy, but here we are. Over the past few months I’ve gotten used to making sure I have a mask with me if I leave the house. I keep at least one in my glovebox in my car and another in my purse. Between that and washing them after each use, I’ve tried to stock up on as many as possible. Luckily my mom’s been making them to give to friends and family so I have several she’s made. But since they’re not going anywhere for the foreseeable feature, I wanted to share the cutest and most fashionable masks I’ve seen online.

Ways To Wear Linen Shorts This Summer
A few months back, while deep in quarantine, I was searching for alternatives for biker shorts and cutoffs to wear day to day. I came across this linen pair and immediately ordered them. I am a big fan of linen anything, especially in the summer! They’re super comfortable and extremely versatile – I wear them at least once a week. Today I wanted to share several different ways I love wearing them.

Wallpaper In My House
Late last week we (Jeff and his dad) finally got the wallpaper up in Crosby’s room! I’ve had the wallpaper for months and was waiting until we had a few things repaired in the room before it could be hung. It completely transforms the room that was so plain before – now, we’re just waiting on a mattress before we do the full “big girl” room transformation. Now that her walls are done I realized we have wallpaper in 3 different rooms in our house and wanted to do a post with the breakdown.

Amazon Summer Favorites
It’s officially my summer, my favorite season! We’ve had a lot of June gloom the past few weeks, but I’m hoping most of that is behind us. I recently cleaned out my closet and found a pair of sunglasses I thought I lost last summer. I purchased this pair over a year ago on Amazon for under $20 and have loved them so much. I recently found another pair with a slightly different shape that I’ve been wearing non-stop the past few weeks. It got me thinking about some of my other summer favorites, and how they’re all from Amazon.

Denim Short Guide
My #1 summer staple is always a good pair of denim shorts. I wear them almost every single day when it’s hot, so I need a couple of pairs to get me through the season. Recently I’ve been searching for a new go-to pair and have gone through a few rounds of online orders so I thought I’d share my research with you.

Outdoor Updates
Since we’ve been spending so much time outside during the stay at home period, we’ve finally worked on some finishing touches to bring the patio together. A couple rugs, new throw pillows, another umbrella and finally having our tv installed have made a huge difference. Luckily the weather has been amazing so we can spend a lot outside. Jeff and I have especially loved sitting outside once the kids go to sleep at night.

May Top 5
I’m coming at your today with my top 5 sellers from May. I pushed this post back a week to take some time to pause, listen, research and talk about the Black Lives Matter movement. Pausing content was just a start, I’m hopeful that when everyone resumes business, this will not be forgotten and the right steps will be taken to work towards this change. We can all do better.

A Few Thoughts
Another month has ended and this one on a particularly low note. I don’t have the words to summarize how I feel about everything going on in the world right now, but I know staying silent is not the answer. We can’t be neutral. If you’re ignoring what’s happening, you’re part of the problem. I can be so hard to speak out when you’re not sure what to say or how to say it. Especially on a topic as big as racism.
