My picks include this sweater dress, this blouse which would be perfectly paired with these shorts this summer, these tory burch thong sandals, this dress (throw this jacket over it and wear now), these white moto jeans (!!), this ruffle skirt, this bubblegum pink dress (feminine & flirty), this little ksny cross body bag, this perfect every day wrap bracelet, and this joie dress just looks so easy to throw on and go.

 

Also, everyone’s favorite otte dress is on major sale too. Browse it all right here.

Hey Hey Tuesday. Here’s some of my life lately in no particular order…

 

I very hesitantly tried this Bare Minerals 7 Day Skin Detox peel. I really didn’t think much would happen since it’s sold over the counter and I haven’t heard a lot about it. Um, no, this shit is legit. Just 2 days in I could tell a difference already. My skin actually looked brighter and more even. I keep meaning to contact them and find out how often I can do these but always forget. Anyone know? Regardless, I highly recommend you try it! If I find out I’ll update this post.

Our camellia trees are blooming and it’s making our yard look so pretty. If only the rest of our plants were alive.

I’m in this month’s Charleston Magazine for their Fashion Insider Feature. This feels pretty awesome. But I guess they couldn’t find any pictures of me where I didn’t look pregnant? At least they made it the smallest one. High fives Charleston Mag. I’m going to go do some sit ups. Y’all should go check out the article because there are all sorts of awesome Charleston designers and such in the feature. Good read.

Speaking of press, I feel really, really lucky to be considered by Southern Living as one of the 75 Most Stylish Southerners. Holy freaking cow. Josh has been having a great time mocking me about this one though. For example, if we have to wait for a table at a restaurant he’s all like, “don’t they know you’re the 47th most stylish southerner?”. When I respond with an eye roll and that I don’t think it was in order he just says “Oh, so you could be the 75th”. It’s pretty hilarious really. Stephanie, thank you for including me!!

Josh and I have been researching vacation spots for a short(ish) getaway that is nearby. Naturally I’m stocking up on beachy wardrobe stuff. This cover up tunic dress (also available here) is one of my favorites. Props to Lilly for this photo (watch out Gray, ha).

Stopped by Gap and am just delighted with their spring line. I mean there are all sorts of good things like these shirts and this chambray dress. Oh, and these clutches look so luxe, what a score. Today you can take 35% off your purchase.

Working on an upcoming collab with Johnston & Murphy and am so super pumped about their little bow back flats that I got them in 2 colors.

After school yesterday Lilly was flipping through the latest Land of Nod catalog and shouted “hey that’s us!” Yep indeed. Thanks for that fun surprise LON! We love you, too!! It’s like the room makeover gift that keeps on giving. As an aside, the rest of the catalog is really good. So many cute new arrivals.

Charleston got a Madewell (finally!). This makes me really happy because they’re style is totally my style. I didn’t get this striped shirt because I found so many other things (like this popover top), but don’t you like it?

I’ve been wearing my new Kate Davis bracelet stack everywhere. One of the bracelets is missing in this picture because Lilly took off with it but I just found it, thank goodness. Also loving my Fossil cross body bag (comes in 7 different colors), and the Christina Jervey stacked rings.

Let’s end it on a crazy deal. THESE sandals at Target. They are fabulous, come in 4 colors, and are only $20! While you’re on the site check out this lavender and gold tufted ottoman. It’s bonkers.

I’m so excited that Charleston has been giving us some sunny and warm days , allowing me to break out my lace up sandal booties and it feeling completely appropriate. On this day I paired them with my favorite ripped jeans and a button down blouse.

Hey Olivia I think this photo below must be right after I saw your hottie husband walk by.

I’ve mentioned before how much I love the Joie Clayton lace up booties. This purple/pink color is my favorite – totally a neutral so I can wear them with so much. It’s no secret that Nordstrom is one of my most favorite places to shop, considering I talk about them all the time. Their new summer sandal collection is totally spot on with many of my favorites like these new Sarah Jessica Parker pink scallop heels (who’s line is sold exclusively at Nordstrom) and these Tory Burch studded gladiators. Also, have you seen these  Sam Edelmans that are so much like the Valentino rock stud pumps? I mean!!

 

You can shop my look and more of my favorite sandals below!

 

 

Gray and I decided to try something new and made a short little video. You can clearly see I have no idea what to do. So I start it by doing my signature “i don’t know what to do” leaning over pose that I always give Gray when I’m feeling dumb in front of the camera. Which obviously isn’t cool.

 

 

I mean, I never claimed to be a model :)
