Morning Beauties!
Starting tomorrow I will be on vacation! Guys, I am so excited to 'try' to unplug (I don't want to set myself up for failure) and just relax, go to the beach and spend some solid quality time with friends, family and my baby boy.
Nothing says vacation like the sun, the beach and fun fruity drinks... with pineapple garnish!
I think we can all agree tropical and fruit prints are totally having their moment.
I am absolutely obsessed with pineapple everything. In addition to how delicious pineapple is, the prints are so fun!
When I saw these adorable shorts at Old Navy, I had to have them. Aren't they just darling?
Be a PINEAPPLE
stand tall, and wear a crown
&
be sweet on the inside

Good Morning Loves!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and a great start to your week.
I was so excited when JORD reached out for another collaboration, it couldn't have come at a better time (pun intended). JORD wood watches focus on creating timepieces that are modeled after a modern lifestyle, valuing
sustainability, efficiency, and experiential living. Making their watches for people who don't just have somewhere to be, they have
somewhere to go.
'The value of a watch is not in being able to tell how much time has
passed, but in being aware of the need to make that time count.'
This always resonates with me. Sometimes life just gets so busy, we get caught up in the minutia of life and the stresses that it brings, that we don't take time for ourselves. Recently, I have fallen victim to this with a crazy Summer schedule. When life gets nuts the first thing that goes is 'me' time. JORD has made me recognize and reevaluate in order to take some time for myself. One thing that always falls by the wayside is workout time. Whether it is dancing or taking another type of class, I feel better in all aspects of my life when I am active and healthy.
I am so excited to offer my readers this
What would you do if you had a little extra time?

Morning Babes!
This Summer is flying! I am trying to enjoy every bit of it, but I can't believe it is already mid July.
I am not spending this weekend at the beach, instead I am going to stick around closer to the city and catch up with some friends.
I know everyone loves a little white dress, but what about a little white romper? I saw this at Madewell and fell in love. It is on sale right now for under $25!
Seriously guys, how cute? It was SUPER windy when these photos were taken, so forgive the hair.
Any big plans this weekend?

Happy Tuesday Loves... It is Tuesday, right?
I have been straight out. This past weekend was crazy, but a blast. Lots of driving, dropping off and picking up, I am sure tons of moms can relate. If you follow my insta-stories you saw the obscene amount of footage from the NKOTB show on Saturday night. It.was.absurd.
So remember in the 90s when Birkenstocks were all the rage? So yeah, in high school/ college I had a pair of Arizonas in cocoa, loved them! Birks really haven't gone anywhere, always a favorite for the organic, earthy crowd, but a few years ago Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen brought them back on the scene and fashionistas everywhere were rocking them left and right. I saw these scuba yellow pair in the early spring and was obsessing until they were in my possession. They were sweeping the nation and sold out almost everywhere, but have since been restocked almost everywhere. These classic styles are now offered in featherweight EVA and are water friendly, perfect for vacation! The best part of these flexible and effortless sandals are the beautiful bold colors AND they are under $35!!! I want them in every color!! If you read my blog regularly, you know the men in my office LOVE to comment on everything I wear. Every time I have worn these colorful sandals, one of the many quips, is that I look like the Bee from the Blind Melon, 'No Rain' video. As if that the music playing over the intercom, or just your run of the mill buzzing wasn't enough! Men just don't get it...
What are some of the things you love that the men in your life just don't understand?
