I’m girl crushing in a major way on Caroline de Maigret. Her Parisian style is wildly simple, as Madewell put it.

Seriously crushing. Steal her style.

Babies on the brain, you guys. But not me!! My friend Natalie. She’s expecting her second child in late November and it’s a girl! So I had some fun putting together a nursery space for her nursery blog series.

This may be my new favorite outfit and I just might bring it along to NYFW with me this week. Because there really isn’t much that’s easier than an Equipment blouse (plus y’all said red is my color!). And I love it paired with my lace shorts and heeled booties. I think I could have a whole row of Equipment blouses in my closet and still feel like I could add to the collection.

I’m a big, big fan of Foley & Corinna. I haven’t found a more comfortable (while still good looking) bag to carry. It can be dressed up or down and looks just as cute folded over if you carry it by the long strap. Plus I can fit everything in here.

And I’m going to live in booties this fall. I’ve got a little collection started – and these black ones are my favorite dressy pair. I found this very similar pair for a great price plus there are a few different color and leather options. But I really, really love this pair by Matt Bernson – the strap takes it to a super cool level. Yeah, I said super cool. Plus the price isn’t soooo bad.

Alright, I admit I might like my sweet tea vodka most! Porch drinking y’all. That’s what I do best.

The Giving Tree is a book that I read to Lilly every so often. I read it to her, but I’m reading for myself just as much. I think we all need reminders to give more than we take.

Have you read Shel Silverstein’s The Giving Tree? How do you feel about it? I know it’s quite controversial. But as sad as it makes me, I think it’s an important lesson and reminder in today’s busy world. I want to teach the value of giving to my children. This book is an easy way for me to get the conversation brought up.
