Hope y’all had a nice weekend :) Here’s a little of my life lately!

 

I was pretty excited to see my face in Real Simple’s February issue for a blogger favorite shout out!! Like, really excited. Can’t play that one cool at all.

Last week I joined 10 girlfriends for a little getaway at the Sanctuary on Kiawah Island. So much fun to take a little break. Pointy toe flats and here is a similar bag!

We hung around the indoor hot tub playing Heads Up and it was so much fun!

Lilly & Fletcher got their class valentines from Grey Ghost Bakery and they’re so cute! Each pack has 2 chocolate chip cookies and is personalized by GGB’s collaboration with Lettered Olive! Lilly came up with the “You’re a cool cookie” phrase :)

A couple of weeks ago we surprised the kids by taking them to Disney! It was so much fun and sweet to see their happy faces!

It rained the first day we were there but not bad so it didn’t slow us down. I’m wearing this similar navy jacket.

Happy Weekend! I was on Kiawah for a short girl getaway this week and got to wear my new Splendid terry coverup! Obsessed, it’s so cozy and easy. Of course underneath I have on this swimsuit.

And with my upcoming Harbour Island trip coming soon I’ve been focusing on cute vacation clothes! Here are some current favorites.

purple tunic, pom basket tote, pink top, pom sandals, trail top, black dress,

necklacekeychain, blue top, cheetah sandals, hologram clutch, white dress,

gold sandals, wicker clutch, white top, overlay dress, tassel slides, scallop tote

 

That pom pom basket tote is THE cutest and is under $60! And that scallop tote at the bottom is only $65. The pom pom sandals are so unique and fun, and the cheetah sandals would be so easy to throw on with most anything.

One of my favorite things for Lilly to wear is a jumpsuit, so it goes without saying that she needed to have these Old Navy denim overalls. Pure cuteness!!

Cute over tees, tanks, or button downs. But I really love it paired over this Old Navy striped sleeve tee!

She’s reading one of her Ivy & Bean books. That collection is her favorite – I love them, too :)

So fun! Right now Old Navy is having a great denim sale for the whole family – and up to 40% off site wide! Some of my favorite picks for women are this perfect little trench jacket, this tassel cross body bag, and these faux leather crisscross sandals are beyond amazing.
