May Edit: Texture & Neutrals

I don’t shy away from color, but lately I’ve been really obsessed with the idea of having more neutral styles in my wardrobe and in my home decor. I know that it’s not completely realistic for me to switch to a completely neutral life {little kids = all the stains!} but I do think for spring and summer it can be really chic to embrace whites and tans. Plus I like that you can pick up any of these pieces and easily incorporate them into your existing wardrobe or home.

To keep these pieces from feeling too simple, I went for styles that had a lot of texture. Like this crocheted tote bag, tassel hoop earrings, and this ribbed bathing suit. I am obsessed with white bathing suits and I feel like this one would look so cute with denim cutoffs. It’s almost like a top right?

Even this coin necklace has visible texture, which I think is just so pretty. So do these raffia sandals which just scream summer to me. And I love that they are under $75!

So how do we feel about matching mother-daughter outfits…I’m not going to lie, when I came across this white eyelet dress and white eyelet baby outfit, I was pretty tempted. I feel like we could pull it off since they aren’t the exact same style. Can you tell I am loving having a daughter to dress??

For home, I thought this blanket would fit in any room of our house. Again, I really like how the tassels add some dynamic texture. I’m not sure if you remember, but I bought some woven baskets for our upstairs kids’ bathroom after we renovated. And I really like the contrast they bring since so much of the bathroom is made up of smooth surfaces. Plus they help keep us organized!

Are you pro neutral or do you prefer to embrace color? I love both, so it’s fun for me to experiment with different shades and colors!

April Edit: Blue and Coral

You know when you’re scrolling mindlessly while online shopping, not looking for anything in particular? Well that’s what I was doing when this floral printed blue dress stopped my scrolling! The pattern and color is just so pretty for spring {although I’m loving the pink version too}. The dress is gorgeous and I love long dresses, but the fact that it was 40% off sealed the deal for me! For some reason I have been drawn to pretty shades of light blue lately. Maybe there was too much pink around when I was pregnant with Corinna {did you catch her insane birth story?!} lol! These light blue mules come in pale pink too, but again I am so drawn to the blue. I think the blue shoes would pair perfectly with white jeans like these. Who knew Old Navy had so many affordable white jeans available?!

These white striped pants would look great with the mules too. I like that the pants and matching top are designed to go over a bathing suit. The water is still pretty cold here, but it’s warm enough to take Augustine to play in the sand. I thought this coverup outfit would be perfect to wear over a swimsuit or even a pretty camisole.

Originally I had this vision of crisp whites paired with blue. Then I started day dreaming about makeup {I’ve been cooped up way too long!} and thought blue and coral would be the prettiest combo. I thought this Essie polish would look great on fingers or toes. But a coral lipstick would work too! Alright, these flowers aren’t a beauty product, but I was thinking of ordering them off Amazon. I love Tulips and can’t get over how affordable Amazon makes it to send flowers. Just a little tip from me to you, they’re way cheaper than a florist!

Jewelry is always a great way to accessorize an outfit, but you can’t really update your jewelry wardrobe all that often unless you find affordable pieces. All of the gold pieces in this edit are under $50! Can you believe that? I was so drawn to these oyster earrings. I thought they would be perfect for spring and summer with their mermaid vibes! I also love the idea of picking up some personalized jewelry like an initial necklace for Corinna or a zodiac bracelet based on Augustine’s sign!

March Edit: Spring Break Style

As much as I love getting to spend everyday with my sweet baby Corinna and hanging out at the house with my little Augustine and Matthew, I’m getting a bit of cabin fever. Especially with Spring Break season around the corner! It has been awhile since I’ve been on vacation, and am really starting to crave the warm sunshine and the beach! My post on Julia Dzafic’s Perfect day in Fairfield, Connecticut this week really sparked my wanderlust after reading about her charming New England coastal town! Would so love to be joining her on her morning beach walks right about now!

However, since I am stuck inside being a busy mama, the best I can do is to pick some of my favorite spring break style items that you’d find in my suitcase if I was about jet set off on vacation! For starters, I always make sure to have a bright travel luggage tag tied on my bag {it makes it easier to find your suitcase at baggage claim!} and a cute passport holder in hand!

After I’d land in my dream destination {dying for a beach vacay right about now}, I’d immediately be putting on this adorable retro floral one piece swimsuit. It’s perfect for spring time, with a trendy 90’s inspired neckline and fun floral print. And of course, I would be sure to bring my favorite aviator sunnies to wear while I lay out on the beach.

Sandals are also a must on vacation! These simple and chic white slip ons would definitely be a staple in my spring break style wardrobe! This wrap top is an ideal breezy vacation top that doubles as a cover up for when you’re heading back to the hotel or vacation house! I love the puff sleeve and lightweight look. I think you could definitely pull this top off with some cute jeans too! To match the vintage feel, check out this faux leather belt to pair with jeans {always love Madewell’s jeans!}.

After laying out on the beach, it’s time for some shopping! My ideal outfit for strolling around any vacation town would be this comfy midi denim dress. I love the button up front and retro feel! For accessories, I’ve picked out the cutest oval hoop earrings and woven straw hand bag!  To top it off, I’d add a bit of eyeshadow from NARS Voyageur Eyeshadow Palette. I love the warm and sunny vacation inspired shades. Plus, it’s miniature and lightweight. The perfect addition to my travel makeup bag!

Once evening comes and it’s time for a romantic sunset dinner, I’d dress up my spring break style outfit by adding this beautiful gold layer chain necklace!

I love day dreaming about the perfect spring break adventure, but in the meantime, I’ll be here hanging out in pajamas cuddling with baby girl. I hope you all have an amazing Spring Break if you have plans to travel!
