“Some people are cuter than us.” This is what my 7-year-old daughter stated flatly to me the other day, with a big ol’ question in her eyes. It came out of nowhere, and caught me by surprise. The way she said it, sounded like she was internalizing this new ideaĀ that she was somehow not special.
Totes Got Ya Covered for Summer
Summah time!! The promise of loads of time spent at the beach or pool, means the need for some serious summer tote shopping. š I’ve shopped a variety for you, below, starting at $15 and on up. I am loving all of them!! It’s a problem. Here’s a few snaps of one of mine I
The Short(s) of Summer Sweaters
For me, packingĀ a couple of light sweaters is the best thing ever when traveling seasideĀ – especially when beaching the Pacific Coast. Even on a hot day, the breeze can be nippy, and the mornings and evenings can be downright collld! Plus, a sweaterĀ can act as an added layer of sunscreen – win, win. So, I’m
Summer Style Travel Essentials
I’m not sure why I’m so enamored with the idea of a train station right by a beach, but I totally am. My family and I were driving around exploring, and this little station caught my eye, so we all wandered down, played on the beach awhile, and then as we were heading back, we
San Fran Swasses
We have this video of our barely-year-old first born where she was wearing pink headband-sunglasses, and kept saying, “I got, I got, I got my swasses on!” It’s one of the very few videos we have of her. Our computer crashed last year, and we lost all photos and videos – fromĀ before she was born,

We kicked our’s off with a nine day trip down the pacific coast to ol’ Disneyland to celebrate our third-born’s 5th birthday. 5th birthdays are properly celliedĀ at Disney in our family, which means we
Summer-Screen that Skin: Top 5 Sunscreens
photo viaĀ soleiltoujours.com It’s officially pool season, and it’s time to protect our skin from those crazy-harmful, summer rays! I’ve learned my lesson multiple times, by not wearing the right sunscreen, or just plain forgetting it. I’ve been a lobster waaay too many times I care to admit. š So, I’m going to share some of
Trip to Zion
I finally got through the 5.2 million photos I took of our trip to Zion National Park, and did my best to narrow it down to just under 30 pics – phew! My camera finger was trigger-happy, and for good reason! Zion is an incredible sight and experience – one my family and I will
Bows, Gingham, + Butterscotch
So, I found the perrrrfect mint green cruiser bike to go with this outfit. I showed my husband, and he thought it looked great! But he didn’t buy it. Gingham Shirt: Old Navy (old – similar) | Culottes: F21 | Boater Hat: Urban Outfitters | Watch: The Horse | Canteen Crossbody: Banana Republic | Tie
Fashion Influencers or Mean Girls?
Getting on my fashion soap box for a minute, today. The topic? Why I strongly believe the terms “what’s in/what’s out” and fashion “do’s/dont’s” should be banished from all fashion vocabulary and rhetoric. These terms are constantly used in fashion mags, and fashion-devoted websites, and have irkedĀ me for years, so I’d just likeĀ to express, today,
