I cannot believe we only have a few more days left here in Texas! Despite being sick on and off for most of our stay, we’ve had the best month ever! We recently spent a morning/afternoon at the Fort Worth Museum, and stayed until they practically kicked us out – we all had such a
Dress-Pair Those Flares
So. Wearing dresses (and skirts) over pants is the somewhat new styling thing, and while this isn’t really a new trend I’ve added to my style game, this is the first time I’ve gone all-out “dress.” In the past, I’ve stuck with shirt dresses, which was so safe of me (“is it a dress? Or
Sunday Brunch
Told ya that I bought more pairs of culottes, and I wasn’t lyin’! This pair is only $25 from Forever 21 – a great price tag anytime, but especially when you’re trying something you’re unsure you’ll like (or thought you’d despise – like me!). Slapped on a little crop top, and some accessories, and I
A Flare for Double Denim
Okay. Three things. 1. THIS DENIM SHIRT. I have been looking foreverrrr for a thin, ultra-soft, color-varied, western-style denim shirt that wasn’t $300, and I recently found the perfect specimen at AEO ($49!). I am in love. It’s so light, airy, and has a perfect drape (if in between sizes, size up). So. Happy. 2.
Spring Surprises
So far, spring for us has been full of all kinds of surprises. First, we recently made a temporary move to Texas for my husband’s work with barely a week’s notice, and had a blast making a fun, adventurous road trip out of it for our littles (and us!). Next, I wasn’t really expecting to…
Chic Street
We shot this on theeee most beautiful day in Portland. Bright blue skies, blooming, flowering beauties everywhere…. My husband and I just spent the morning exploring the city, and here are some snaps of one my favorite streets near China Town. Shirt: Banana Republic | Jeans: Madewell | Jacket: Madden Girl (similar style) | Clutch: J.Crew
Wearing the Sunshine
Good morning! So. It seems I’m always busting out my trusty, yellow, J.Crew coat this time of year, and I think it’s because we’re usually teased with spring-like weather, only to be yanked back to gloomy, snowy, slushy winter (such is the nature of transitional weather, I know). Wearing my yella fella just helps to compensate
Blushin' Blooms
The day we shot this just might have been the windiest day I have experienced in a long while – perhaps ever – but in between mighty gusts, it was also one of the loveliest. Rows and rows of cherry blossom trees in full bloom, showering petals like pink fairy dust, was just a magical sight to
A Colorful Spring in My Step
This weather transition thing is tricky. It can be downright hot in the middle of the afternoon in direct sunlight, and then freezing in the mornings/evenings, or even just in the shade! Layers are key, but because I’m all ready for spring, and the warm, sunny moments tell me it’s spring, I’m ditching drab, blacks
Pinstripes + High-Tops
I’ve been a longtime Converse fan, but it wasn’t until recently that I did a little wikipedia research on the company. It was an interesting read! It was founded in 1908, originally manufacturing sporty shoes for tennis, but I found this to be the most intriguing: “The company’s main turning point came in 1917 when the Converse All-Star
