Look Linger Love

Let’s get right to it!

What I’m Wearing This Week:

Wearing: white & brown dress 0, metal rim sunglasses, my sandals

– I got these woven mary jane flats b/c I love the more squared off toe – it feels very fresh and current. They’re also cushioned and so comfy so I’ve been wearing a lot!!

– It got quite warm in Charleston this week so I broke out my favorite biker shorts. The length is perfect so they’re not booty popping. And they’re super soft and comfy but also really hold you in!

– I continue to wear this Hart necklace A LOT, I hope you guys aren’t getting bored of it. It just goes with everything and is kinda perfect.

– I’m wearing this light cardigan today – it’s one of my faves and I love the little lace trim at the bottom.

What I’m Buying/Eyeing This Week:

Wearing: green embroidered linen jacket 0, white tee, my jeans

– I just got my Hill House delivery and CANNOT wait to wear them. Naturally the temp just dipped so I gotta wait a minute. I got this white mini dress and this pretty green stripe mini dress.

– My fringe Doen pants are now in a pretty lighter color – perfect for spring and summer events!!

– This new Tuckernuck dress is really cute and would work for so many occasions.

– Do you remember when I said that I thought the crown affair dry shampoo was causing irritation on my hands? I WAS WRONG. It wasn’t that!! And I couldn’t be happier to be wrong. Because we all know it’s the very best working dry shampoo out there. And the scent it heavenly. I’m happy to report I can use it again and just reordered another jar b/c I’m almost empty.

– I treated myself to a new spring necklace. I’m so excited it arrived last night and it’s just so fun and gorgeous.

What I’m Reading/Watching/Listening To:

Wearing: my over the earbuds, white workout tank, sunglasses

– I have thoroughly enjoyed listening to Maury Povich’s podcast. If you too grew up watching his show, then you know he’s seen some things… The fact that he’s still creating such great content at 87 years old is such a gift to us all.

– Okay I finished It’s Different This Time – it was just lovely. I really liked the male character especially. And I just started First Time Caller. So far so cute – it’s a take on Sleepless in Seatle.

– I really haven’t watched must new tv this week, just kinda keeping up with Shrinking, Love Story, and . I did start Vladimir. I can’t tell what I think about it but I’m pretty far into it and will likely finish. Are any of you watching?

This Week’s Highlight:

Wearing: black long sleeve top ON SALE xs, white pants, my sunglasses,

necklace, my walking sandals

This week’s highlight was a simple one. I went for a morning walk downtown South of Broad with some girlfriends. The weather couldn’t have been more perfect, and it was just a joyful happy inspiring way to kick off my day. Highly recommend. Heads up though a friend when early to get everyone’s coffee orders at Sorelle which was important b/c the line is always out the door – insane. I feel like next time grabbing coffee from Fast & French next door would be smart.

DMs From The Week:

my favorite flat sandals

– “On the hunt for neutral flat sandals.” ~ Let me tell you these are the best. i have them in two colors and again two more colors in the heel version.

– “I need some pool sandals that work for the beach but are also cute.” ~ These are my pool sandals that I keep at Coral House. They’re super comfy and easy and chic. If I want a dressier look I wear these.

– “I don’t love my arms and am looking for some dress options for vacation that cover them.” ~ First, I think you should wear what makes you happy. Don’t worry about your arms. But here are some of my favorite ideas – this dress just arrived and it’s gorgeous! I also love this flowy long dress and this really fun one too.

– Tarte’s F&F sale ends tonight and it’s 30% off the whole site which is incredible. I LOVE their maracuja juicy lip plump – I have like 4 of them. Great idea is to order some for Easter Baskets!! And also their tubing mascara is so so good.

– Speaking of Easter baskets, BonBon just sent me a little package of sweets and y’all it’s so good and the branding is just so cute too. These would be fabulous in an easter basket.

I recently shared a new Peloton strength instructor I’m enjoying, and the number of replies I got made me think it might be time for an updated workout post!

Wearing: halter shelf sports top xs, high waisted sculpting leggings xs (these leggings run small)

I’m so happy I can say that I genuinely enjoy working out. This wasn’t always the case, and the reason being because I hadn’t found the types of exercise that I enjoy. I would run because I thought that was what I was supposed to do – spoiler I really really don’t like running. I’ve tried dance workouts because that looks like fun, but honestly I’m left feeling too distracted by not knowing the moves that the other regulars in the class seem to know by instinct. By the time the class would end I’d feel like I never hit a groove. Tried yoga as well, and I hate to admit it but I just find it very boring. I’ll do it on occasion for group events, but that’s the extent of yoga for me.

About 5 years ago I discovered strength training classes on Peloton. I found an instructor I absolutely love – Callie Gullickson – and I haven’t looked back. These classes are easy for me to follow and really fun and set to great music. I’ve never felt stronger or more capable. These are the weights both Josh and I use.

We workout for the body we want to have at 70.

Overall strength, balance, bone density, mental health, and a slew of other reasons.

I workout for my current and my future self. I want to be strong and healthy now, and I want to be strong and independent later in life. I also want to be able to run through an airport to catch a flight.

In addition to my strength classes I also love walking on my treadmill at an incline and watching netflix. (This one is only $315.) I also like the Peloton mat pilates classes with Aditi. I have a pilates reformer as well, and I love it, but I’m more focused on mat work right now. And that’s perfectly okay. The point is to find the workouts that you enjoy doing now, so that you actually do them with regularity now. My mind feels clear and happy and accomplished when I take the time to exercise. By the way this is the mat that I recommend to literally everyone.

My favorite time of year is nearly here, warm weather season. Spring Break. Deep Spring. Summer. Give me all the sunny outfits. Here are 9 favorites to pack for Spring Break!

I love Coco Shop so much and when I saw this floral dress hit the site I had to have it. She is just so happy. I picture her on Harbour Island, and here in Charleston, and down in Florida. All the places. I’m in the XS. Looks great with our favorite heel.

I am so impressed by the quality of this orange smocked dress. The cotton poplin is one of the softest I’ve ever felt, and the top is so structured and pretty. Cut with a white sweater thrown over the shoulders. I have the XS. And I’m wearing these heels.

You gotta have a pair of comfortable pants that you can throw on with a tank for breakfast or over a swimsuit for the pool, and I am obsessed with these elastic waist linen pants. I now want them in all the colors, I have the XS. Wearing with this tank and this bag and these jelly flats.

I love having a light weight long sleeve dress on vacation for the chillier nights. This dress has elastic sleeves so you can easily push your sleeves up! I’m in an XS. Cute with gold flats or heels!

Mirth’s new collection has some cute pieces, like this matching smocked top and smocked waist long skirt. I’m in the XS, and if you don’t like to show your tummy just hick the skirt up a bit!

This Saylor blue two piece set is the most fun. I love that it shows a little waist but still covers too. And the movement is so fun. I’m in the XS. So fun for a night out with friends or dancing! I’m pairing it with these heels.

Matching sets are the easiest way to look organized and cute – this cute top and matching skirt is so fun together but they’re also really cute as separates too. It runs large IMO, and I’m wearing these black flats.

This white mini shirtdress is the perfect piece to have on hand for all the things – ladies lunch, easter brunch, dinner at a sidewalk bistro, shopping… I have a code – CHASSITY20 for 20% off. And here’s my bag.

This blue shift dress is the cutest casual day dress and it matches my new bikini!! I’m in the extra small. It goes from being your pool cover up to out to lunch and shopping.
