End Of Summer Swim Sales

August 24, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

Calendar wise the end of August is typically the end of summer, but in southern California (and several other places), summer is just heating up. We will have really hot days until at least Halloween and this year I really want to soak them up at the beach as much as possible. Usually by September the crowds are a lot smaller and the beach is easier to do. Fingers crossed that’s still true for this wacky year.

We headed down the peninsula to the bay side the other day after naps for some late afternoon/early evening fun. It’s been really hot and humid and it was still 85 degrees when we left at 6:30, but we had fun playing in the sand and splashing in the water.

I ordered this swimsuit for myself a few weeks ago on major sale. When it arrived I realized how similar it was to one of Crosby’s so we had to wear them together. Both of our suits are sadly sold out, but this time of year is always a good time to take advantage of the end of season sales and shop for swimwear at a big discount. I’m rounding up some favorites below.

J. Crew is one of my favorites for one piece swimsuits for myself, they have a pretty good selection on sale right now. I’m loving this black and white gingham print, this orange and pink and this pink one-shoulder suit. These seersucker one shoulder suits would be really cute to hold on to until next 4th of July, they’re currently and extra 60% off.

I always love getting Crosby’s swimsuits at Old Navy, the one she’s wearing is sold out but it’s available in a turquoise polka dot print.

I also love this tropical print with the dainty ruffles, navy blue palm tree print, black and white polka dot, and this navy and white star ruffle suit (would be another cute one to hold onto until next summer). She also has this leopard print suit and loves it.

Hope you had a great weekend – thank you for reading and following!

New Brand I Love

August 10, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

romper, slides, chain necklace, coin necklace, star necklace

Wardrobe wise, I have a rotation of brands I know and love but they’ve been feeling a little stale. Lately I’ve been trying to mix up my wardrobe and find some new brands/designers to add to the mix. My newest brand discovery is Heartloom – I received a few pieces over the weekend and was instantly obsessed. Everything is really well made and unique. I wanted to share my favorites.

tank, shorts

This tank might be my favorite piece. It also comes in white which I debated getting at first. But I have 239408 white tops and thought I should mix it up. This is a bright coral/pink.

 

tank, shorts

I love the ribbed stripes on this one and the colors are perfect to carry into fall too. It’s a fitted tank and almost looks like a bodysuit when you tuck it in.

bodysuit, shorts

These shorts are so fun and unlike anything I had in my closet! I love that they’re shorts but almost look like a skirt.

I’m actually wearing this romper today. Not only is it insanely comfortable but it’s really practical for my every day mom life too. It has pockets and is a great length. The dark green almost photographs black but it’s really pretty, it comes in a lighter green too.

Thanks for reading – hope you have a great day!

Ways To Wear Linen Shorts This Summer

July 21, 2020 by ashadmin No Comments

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 a major summer staple… 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.

Sizing note, I’m wearing an xs but should have sized up. They run a little on the small side.

I also found this nearly identical pair that’s a little cheaper and has pockets.

Tularosa Romper

August 26, 2019 by ashadmin No Comments

I’m still holding strong onto my summer wardrobe. I feel like it’s really just beginning here so don’t expect me to dip into fall just yet. At least not until I get sick of dressing like this. 🙂  Last week in Palm Springs I wore this new Tularosa romper that’s on major sale right now. There are usually amazing sales at the end of a season and this is marked down to $35. Such a steal!

hat, sunglasses, sunglasses chain, romper, swimsuit, bag, sandals

I’ve loved wearing rompers as coverups this summer. A few others I love: I wore this one in Palm Springs too (seen here), a great budget friendly option that comes in a lot of colors and can be worn with a top under too, another cute one I love and this one is a cute longer option that would also work into fall.

Also, you can’t really see it but I’m wearing another sunglasses chain here. I bought this pack before our trip and loved wearing them. It’s like another piece of jewelry that actually serves a purpose. I’m hooked.

We stayed at the Parker in Palm Springs, it’s our favorite hotel that we actually got engaged at 5 years ago on the croquet lawn pictured below! Side note, can you believe I’ve had the blog this long? I’ve actually been doing this for over 7 years now. That. Is. Crazy.

But back to The Parker, the grounds are so fun to explore… they have cute little areas all around the property and it almost feels like a secret garden. No matter how many times I go back I’m always getting lost on the pathways but I’m also always finding new hidden gems around the grounds.

Madewell Stripe Cropped Pants

June 14, 2018 by ashadmin No Comments

Yikes stripes! Crosby and I wore these summery outfits to happy hour last week. Her jumper stole the show but I was just as excited to bring out these Madewell stripe cropped pants.

Have you ever been to happy hour with a one-year-old? It’s quite the party, let me tell you. The first thirty minutes were great. She sat in her high chair, ate snacks, drank water and behaved like a lady. But at minute thirty a ticking time bomb started and all she wanted to do was run around the bar. Maybe she just wanted to show off her sushi mocs to the sushi chefs? Who knows?! It’s a good thing she’s cute because we had about thirty minutes (give or take) to finish our food and drinks and leave before all hell broke loose.

Just kidding, but not really. Next time I’m bringing more snacks and toys for her. Or maybe a grandma.

Anyway, we both wore our favorite summer stripes (this is the jumper I mentioned in yesterday’s Amazon post). She really stole the show here.. while she was running wild she got lots of compliments on the romper. It’s less than $13 and no one could believe what a steal it was.

My pants are high-waisted and so flattering. Jeff refered to them as 80’s kulot pants, but seriously what does he know?! Kulots are back, right??

They’re really versatile and can be taken from the beach to happy hour seamlessly. I tested them out at the beach prior to this and loved the way they looked over a white bikini. Easy pieces like these are my go-to all year round, but in the summer I’m even more interested in them.

on me: hat c/o, similar top, bag c/o, pants c/o, sandals c/o

on Crosby: bow c/o, jumper, shoes c/o

Let me know if you have any tips for keeping a one-year-old busy so you can enjoy your drink… or meal. I need all the help I can get in that department!

Summer Trend: Topless Hats and Visors

June 4, 2018 by ashadmin No Comments

Even though summer doesn’t officially start until later this month, it kind of feels like it’s already here. We’ve had a blast of perfectly sunny weather which has felt especially nice after a gloomy May. We’re not out of the woods yet, June Gloom is a real thing around here, but I’m looking ahead to my favorite season… S U M M E R!
