Packing up tonight for a trip to Harbour Island in the morning. I’m so excited to explore the island. I’ve heard the most amazing things. Of course I’ll still be blogging and instagramming :)

A critical (and fun) aspect of summer shopping for Lilly and Fletcher is finding new shoes for their tiny feet. There’s no chance that they fit in last year’s shoes, so I feel no guilt over picking out a few new pairs. Luckily, Nordstrom has a killer collection.

I’ve found some awesome new pairs like these Birkenstock sandals for Lil. Last year Fletcher lived in multiple pairs of Keen waterproof sandals so I no doubt should stock up on those again. They’re perfect for the park and beach and then throwing in the wash.

I’m feeling dresses right now. Okay, I’m always feeling dresses. But I’m really into it now that the weather is so dang lovely. Let’s start with some long ones.

And a shout out to some real pretty short ones, too.

One trend I’m seeing is dresses that imitate the look of well matched separates. As is the case with that first blue maxi up top (click on it, you’ll see!), as well as this pretty Amanda Uprichard dress that’s not pictured here. Loving this idea.

Last weekend I had a some girlfriends over for a casual lunch. I kept it super simple and borrowed some wicker trays from my mother in law and held the party on our screen porch. It was pot luck so everyone brought a little something. I naturally went by Hamby’s for little tea sandwiches (I look for any excuse). I mixed up some Firefly sweet tea vodka and used my new Aladdin mason tumblers. It was the perfect afternoon.

The Aladdin mason jars and drink dispensers were cute and easy! Afterwards I just threw it all in my dishwasher. I’m looking forward to using these at the beach and around the pool this summer

Lilly and Fletcher couldn’t resist coming out to party for a little while, too.

Don’t worry, Lilly’s was just water.

It’s so nice to spend a Saturday afternoon with girlfriends. And it doesn’t have to be fancy, despite what pinterest and instagram tell me on a daily basis (I need to remind myself of that). Thanks to Aladdin for helping me accomplish this!

On a recent shopping trip on King Street Gray snapped a few quick picks for me in my new Madewell jeans. I’m a Madewell freak now. Love that store so much!
