New & Now

Good morning from Montreat, NC. The kids and I are up here for the week with friends (and husbands coming soon). The kids are doing mountain camp and having the time of their lives, it’s just so sweet to watch. I want to go to camp, too!!

 

Meanwhile on our interwebs, lots of cute things are showing up! Here are a few of my favorites.

red heels, black heeled sandals, floral dress, white dress, black flats,

white maxi, white flats, black tie dress, white dress, black top

 

I mean, the green & blue print floral dress is amazing. And that white tassel dress, so cute. And I know it’s WAY early to think about sweaters, but I really like that light weight black one at the bottom!

What I’m Wearing: Little Black Dress

Sometimes you find the perfect little black dress and have to just get it even though you don’t yet have a specific occasion for it.

As was the case with this black dress with slightly off shoulder straps.

Backyard Playground With ATGstores.com

Lilly and Fletcher’s dreams came true when school let out for the summer. We surprised them with a new playground from ATGStores.com.

They both have been dropping playground hints for years so this was pretty major in their book. When ATGStores.com reached out to me about working together to do something great in our backyard I’ll admit I got starry eyed at some of their amazing patio furniture (especially this bamboo daybed). But it really felt like the perfect opportunity to be a fun mom and surprise them big. And it was so sweet to see their happy faces when they saw it!

And it has really turned out well for us because they spend SO much time playing on it! Kids being kids playing outside. That’s what summer is all about.

When you shop at ATGStores.com you can also arrange for installation. Porch.com is their installation partner, and thankfully for me (okay, really for Josh) one of their installers came to our house to put everything together! Amazing! The contractor was a local guy and he did a great job!

We also decided to add an umbrella to our dining table. The sun beats down on this area around lunch time so it’s been a long time coming.

We chose this yellow california umbrella (also from ATGStores.com) and love it. It’s 7.5 feet wide and has a hardwood pool that looks nice and is great quality. Plus it’s really easy to use so I can actually open it up and use it (much unlike the umbrella by our pool that I cannot open by myself). It’s the perfect spot to sit while listening to the kids play on their new playground.

BIG thank you to ATGStores.com for making our summer so much more fun. I highly recommend you check out their site anytime you need pretty much anything you would use around the home. Furniture (really cute adorable pieces!), lighting, decor, amazing outdoor things…! Check them out on their instagram too, they gram beautiful spaces that their customers share. I love this pink themed dining room they shared yesterday!

 

PS: Lilly is wearing this yellow Vineyard Vines dress. Fletcher is wearing this stripe Vineyard Vines polo.

Bold Bright & Blue

Happy Thursday, Friends! Don’t you just love a short week? I’ve rounded up a few of my most favorite shades of blue that will last you for years to come! Guess I’m still feeling patriotic.

wrap skirt, crossbody bag, iPhone case, lace dress,

tassel basket, ruffle dress, stripe dress, nylon tote,

embroidered dress, blue/white sandals, lace trim dress

 

First, that wrap skirt – SO cute!! And that off the shoulder ruffle dress looks so flattering and fun. The little stripe dress can go to lunch or to the beach. And that red embroidered dress is the throw on and go sort of piece that I love to have in my closet!

Backyard Haven

One blessing of living in Charleston is that our weather is pretty great all year long, making spending time outdoors one of our favorite pastimes. And we especially love to be outside with Lilly and Fletcher, when the bugs leave us alone… Getting bit up is pretty much the first thing to ruin a nice evening.

So I was completely game when Nutone reached out to us about trying their new Haven Backyard Lighting & Mosquito Repellent System that they just introduced this season. Any mosquito free backyard is a great yard in my mind. And they always flock to me for some reason! Anyone else? My grandmother has always said it’s because I’m so sweet. :)

The Haven Backyard Lighting & Mosquito Repellent System is a set of landscape fixtures that provide season long, effective protection from mosquitos. It works quickly, within 15 minutes of use, and it’s odorless and silent! The only reason we notice that the system is on is because it’s totally working and keeping the mosquitos away!

About 4 weeks ago Josh installed the system and thought it was really easy. Four Haven fixtures protect a typical patio, and we installed 8 of them so that they would cover our courtyard as well as the pool area. The system is simple to turn on, or you can program it for automatic operation during peak times. Here’s what they look like. We chose the system without the landscaping lights.

Each cartridge in each fixture lasts a full season, and they are really simple to replace – pretty much a big win in our book over here! You can find out more about Nutone’s Haven Mosquito Repellent System right here!
