Happy Thursday! We are en route to Harbour Island this morning and I’m so excited to spend a week in my 2nd favorite place (after Charleston, of course). Seems like a good time to catch you up on a little bit of our life lately.

 

We finished our sunroom project and I am SO happy to have a home gym now. The space is so pretty and it looks over the pool and I love being in there.

 

 

We’ve had a lot of boat days this summer. Exploring Charleston by boat is like a whole different side of the city. I’m wearing this dress.

 

 

We spent a week in Denver on vacation with my side of the family. If you missed that recap post it’s right here.

 

 

We spent 4th of July in Bluffton at Gray’s parent’s annual party – her mom does the cutest job!

 

 

I wore this white dress!

 

 

More 4th of July weekend festivities in Charleston with my friend Haskell. I’m wearing this swimsuit.

 

 

Selfies in my butterfly top (on sale!).

 

 

I took the kids to TN for a few days to visit family! They loved it. I’m wearing a Love Shack Fancy dress and my new woven sandals here.

 

 

The Smoky Mountains are just so pretty. I hadn’t been to this area since I was 9 years old.

 

 

Dinner with friends with the most extraordinary Charleston back drop. I’m wearing this red dress (which I have in 3 colors).

 

 

See, here it is in pink, ha!

 

 

Celebrating Gray’s birthday, parade style.

 

 

Mountain camp with the kids and their friends.

 

 

I ordered these garment storage boxes to finally organize my closet!

 

 

Dinner downtown with my Think Tank Drink Tank ladies – I love this group of Charleston women!!

 

 

The summer of pie. Good thing I have that home gym to try to work some of this off!

Our vacation in Denver Colorado did not disappoint and I wanted to share some pictures and some of our favorite places and activities :)

 

We met up with 25 of my family members in Denver, CO for our annual Aull family vacation. We stayed at the Four Seasons downtown and it was a great hotel with a really convenient location. On these trips we generally do a beach style resort, so this trip was different than our usual, but we had a lot of fun! We kicked it off with a show at Red Rocks! This venue was hands down the coolest venue I’ve ever been to. We saw The Record Company and Umphrey’s McGee.

 

 

I’m wearing a Rhode Resort dress and these woven sandals.

 

 

Here’s a picture of my granny who takes us on these vacation every year. She’s a sweetie and I wish I got to see her more. This photo is taken before dinner at Guard & Grace – an amazing steakhouse! I’m wearing a Love Shack Fancy dress and my stripe tote.

 

 

One of the most fun things we did was go ATV riding in Estes Park. It was so wild and pretty.

 

 

We got to see some really pretty views along the way.

 

 

I had lunch at Tavernetta at Union Station (it was soooo good and so pretty inside) with my friend Liz who lives in Denver. She and I were roommates when we interned on Fripp Island, and she also went to IU. Fun fact, she won Little 500 girls race when she was a senior. I’m wearing this palm dress.

 

 

Our hotel was just 2 blocks from Larimar Square which is this pretty street with lots of restaurants and boutiques. I’m wearing a Doen dress, this cross body bag, and these woven sandals.

 

 

Big family shot of some of us from the trip! Check out Fletcher’s socks. He always wears them like that.

 

 

Y’all might recognize my cousin Wes (who I visit often in NYC). He was a big hit in the pool with the girls.

 

 

Our room had tons of gorgeous city views!

 

 

I went white water rafting for the first time. It was so much fun. Granted our guide did most of the hard work, but it was really cool! I definitely want to go again sometime.

 

 

Colorado is such a fun and beautiful state!

 

 

Picture of me and my granny. I’m wearing my Ganni twist dress and these ruffle metallic slides. Did you know they now make them in a flat version?

 

 

One of our most favorite family activities was the Nature & Science Museum! It was so amazing you guys. We really loved the planetarium, the Health wing, and the dinosaur section! We spent more than 4 hours there and could have stayed longer but needed to get going.

 

 

Lilly snapped these before we went shopping at Cherry Creek Mall (great mall!).

 

 

I’m wearing a Rhode Resort Ella dress.

 

 

Loved that they had a Warby Parker in the mall! These are the Milton glasses – Josh told me I looked like the instagram filter, which can’t be a bad thing right?

 

 

And of course we spent lots of time in the pool at our hotel. It was a nice break from the heat!

 

 

Favorite Denver Spots & Activities:

 

Milk Market (amazing 16 concept cafeteria style spot)

Tavernetta (italian restaurant)

Guard & Grace (steakhouse)

Osteria Marco (casual italian)

Red Rocks (concert venue)

Nature & Science Museum

Cherry Creek Mall (great shopping)

All the outdoor activities

Good morning! I’m so excited to share my porch swing pillow update with Serena & Lily today! Our swing bed is my favorite thing on our front porch and it was time for a little refresh! And fresh pillows are the easiest way to add a little zhushing! Serena & Lily’s latest outdoor pillow cover collection is the perfect collection to mix and match a new look!

 

 

These raffia style tassel outdoor pillow covers are amazing and so versatile!!

 

 

Isn’t this tassel sling chair so fun? The kids are obsessed with it.

 

 

 

These montecito outdoor pillow covers are so comfortable! And by the way, these outdoor pillow inserts are the best and so fluffy!!

 

 

I’m so happy with how it turned out! It’s the best spot to hang out!

A pool day looks even better with a fresh, pretty, new beach towel. Am I right?

 

 

Above, the perfectly striped towels in a rainbow of colors.

Alright that waffle bath wrap technically isn’t a beach towel but it’s just so cute, and handy, too.
