Sharing a little life lately today!

 

Managed a happy little photo for Mother’s Day! They even smiled nicely.

 

 

I spent 48 hours in Chicago with my friend Liz. She’s one of my most favorite people, and I love Chicago, so it was the perfect short getaway. We stayed at the Langham right on the river and it was exquisite. Funny story, upon check in the woman who lead me to my room said “Hi I’m Chassidy, follow me”. I was like whaaaaa. So crazy, I never meet other Chassitys.

 

 

The first 20 years of my life were spent in the midwest and I always thought I’d end up in Chicago (until I discovered Charleston). It’s such a nice and friendly city with a great vibe. We went for long walks, shopped, ate at some great restaurants (EMA, Summer House, and the cafe at Restoration Hardware), and just caught up.

 

 

Julia and Thomas were in town too so we spent a good bit of time with them and stopped by the Gal Meets Glam party at Nordstrom. Below I’m wearing this floral dress and Liz is wearing this blue floral dress.

 

 

After the event dinner celebration at Summer House. Julia’s wearing this GMG dress.

 

 

Boating day over Memorial Day with friends. These two pictures make me laugh. Before:

You all know Greetabl right? The cutest little personalized surprises that make the best mail days?

One of my favorite dresses in my closet right now.

 

 

With my friends Emily and Lauren at the Sitterbank App launch party. It’s an app for finding and sharing  babysitters with your friends! Check it out.

 

 

Last Friday night with my sweet fam.

 

 

And hiding from the rain under an umbrella on Memorial Day. You can’t really see it but I’m wearing this cute dress from Old Navy.

 

 

Lastly, guess who’s getting glasses! It’s time. I have one eye that is much stronger than the other so I finally got it checked out and sure enough… Looks like I have one more accessory to start collecting, ha! (red polka dot dress and stripe straw tote)

I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend! We had such a fun time with family and friends. I spent so much time outside and feeling happy. I have summer fun on my brain so I thought it would be fun to share some cool finds!

 

 

Isn’t that the cutest banana lie on float for all the pool days.

My kids have the hot potato pool game and love it! And I am so intrigued by the Golden Girls game! And summer cocktails would taste so much better served on that gorgeous rattan tray!

That “watch me neigh neigh” mug is hilarious. And I just love those pocket girlfriends! The “press for champagne” key chain is so fun.

Sharing a little life lately today! Let’s start with Highwater Fest weekend. It’s an annual music festival here in Charleston right on the water and it’s SO much fun. Saturday Josh and I went. I got to hear Brandi Carlisle sing The Story, which is one of my favorite songs!

 

 

Above, I’m wearing this Doen dress. On Sunday Gray and I went together. Such a fun day.

 

 

We met up with Jillian and Jackie, too.

 

 

Like, so much fun. My dress is Nimo with Love. Also my Carrie Forbes sandals are here, and pink fan earrings.

 

 

Some of the art in our powder room.

 

 

Beach days with the kids have begun. So happy that the warm weather is here. Btw I got Fletcher these waterproof birkenstocks and they’re pretty much the best sandals ever. Ended up ordering a pink pair for Lilly, too!

 

 

Pretty scenes in the neighborhood!

 

 

Last weekend Lilly, Fletch and I ventured up to the Great Wolf Lodge to celebrate a friend’s birthday. They were pretty much on cloud nine the entire time.

 

 

How cute is this August Morgan dress?

 

 

I love the floral detail on the collar. I’m also wearing these blue espadrilles and this stripe raffia tote!

 

 

Kids on a boat equals happiness. Our neighbors have a boat and were so sweet to take us out for a sunset cruise.

 

 

At Julia’s Gal Meets Glam dress collection party at her house. So proud of her for making the cutest dresses!!

 

 

Oh heeeeey!! Wearing these blue espadrilles again with this stripe tote.

 

 

This right here is pretty much my favorite bag right now. It is SO fun to carry around. Also wearing this dress and these leather lace up sandals.

 

 

And my second favorite bag… Packing this woven bird bag along for Harbour Island this weekend! You guys, I know it’s ridiculous but I can’t help myself. I want to be still be carrying this around Harbour Island when I’m 85 years old.

 

 

And ending with another favorite outfit. This Ulla Johnson dress I picked up from Hampden is so comfortable. Wearing it with these metallic ruffle slides sandals (now 30% off!), these metal earrings, and this Nannacay bag.

I’m so excited to partner with Framebridge for Mother’s Day! They’ve been my go to for framing for the last 2 years! They’re website is really easy and fun to use (not to mention gorgeous!). And their custom framing is beautiful and high quality! With Mother’s Day less than a month away Framebridge is the perfect destination for special, one of a kind gifts.

 

 

Some of my most favorite art pieces in our home were made by my kids. These pieces deserve to be framed! And it makes Lilly and Fletcher so happy to see their art hung on the wall. Framed kids art makes for the best Mother’s Day gift, don’t you think?

 

 

There are two easy ways you can frame – 1) Upload a photo from your computer, phone, or instagram feed for Framebridge to custom frame or 2) Mail in your original art and objects for Framebridge to custom frame. They provide free, prepaid packaging!

 

 

Framebridge has a lot of handmade frame options to choose from. Just upload an image of the piece you want framed and you can see it in all of the frame options!

 

 

I actually find this tool kind of addicting. I love plugging in different pictures and seeing how they look in different frames. I love how this abstract by Fletcher turned out in the Marin Frame.

 

 

We spruced up our library area with some new pieces, too.

 

 

Lilly made this self portrait with her pastels and I framed it in the Stella frame using a personalized mat saying “Lilly (age 8)”. Loving this new personalizing feature they’re offering.

 

 

And this family photo was printed from my instagram feed! It’s actually of a Mother’s Day past and is so special to me. It’s in the Henry frame.

 

 

Live life. Frame more. – Framebridge’s motto, and I like it. A few dates to note – Mother’s Day mail in orders deadline is April 22, the digital upload deadline is May 6th! You can start framing right here!
