Okay, that huge vintage style tent? I’d go camping in that. And y’all know I’m a fan of Blacktooth Studio’s canvas banners – so many fun ones in her shop. And the Eames style chairs come in some really great options and are not a million dollars.

A little of my life lately… :)
Last Thursday Gray and I went to the Diner en Blanc event downtown. It was a pop up white party – everyone wore all white and brought picnics with white tables and white chairs. The end result was pretty amazing and it was so much fun. We danced all night!
I wore a white shirtdress (only $84!), a Twine & Twig necklace, Charleston rice beads on my wrist, and my white Everlane street shoes. Gray wore a dress pretty identical to this one and it’s only $27.
In other news, we’ve been spending as much time outside as possible now that I’m not melting from humidity. The kids are big fans of going to Vintage so they can play on this cool truck slide.
But we don’t discriminate.
Had dinner with my friends Molly and Olivia at Chez Nous, one of my favorite spots here in Charleston. The menu offers 6 total options and changes daily. Everything is amazing and I recommend ordering as much as possible.
In other Charleston happenings, Furbish has popped up in Moon & Lola’s King St location! It’ll be there till the end of December – so fun!! I wore my favorite off the shoulder top and Phillip Lim sandals.
Some of my favorite picks from the night include all the rugs, their finds from their recent travels, and this new jewelry collab collection – especially this necklace.
Sally King Benedict’s art show at George Gallery was a total success – this painting was my favorite. You can’t really tell from the picturing but it’s HUGE!
Lilly acting all cute under some halloween decorations on King. Her dress is from Pink Chicken and she’s holding her new Jellycat Bunny that she swindled me into buying ten minutes before.
Stopped in Hot Little Biscuit this past Friday for their fried chicken biscuit. Have we discussed that fried chicken is my favorite food? It really is.
Lots of pumpkin patching going on over here lately. This one below is from Lilly’s school field trip!
Yesterday we went back to the Boone Hall Pumpkin Patch as a family. The kids love all the slides and things, as well as the hay ride and cornfield maze. Y’all might be glad to know that Fletcher’s chocolate milkshake spilled all over my Free People sweater during lunch at Jacks Cosmic Dogs – but it all came out. No stain whatsoever. I mean, sweater season has only begun, ha! That sweater is also available here.
Sadly, pumpkins is most all we’ve done as far as Halloween decorating this year. I couldn’t find my bats that I usually put up on our front door. We have some big fake spiders in the kids’ rooms though :)
Our banana plants are growing.
I’m sure y’all are aware that it’s breast cancer awareness month. This plaid wrap benefits the National Breast Cancer Foundation! I throw it on a lot b/c it’s so easy and soft, especially in the morning when we’re getting ready for school (Fletch calls me a super hero b/c I’m in a “super-cape”). Also wearing nude lace up flats.
We went out with friends Friday night and I wore my blooming sequin cuff, grey Alexander Wang pumps, this off the shoulder blouse, and my cylinder bag!
Happy Monday, Friends!
Y’all. Our most favorite dolls are on OKL right now and I can’t handle the cuteness. So many adorable animals and outfits!!
(Lilly and Catalina)
They’re my go to baby gift! Perfect for holiday gifts, too :) And considering their handmade cuteness they’re priced so well at $45 – $52! See the whole Hazel Village collection right here!

I know it seems early but it’s time to start planning our holiday cards. Minted’s new holiday collection is, once again, amazing (this is my 3rd year in a row posting about them)! There are so many that I love and it’ll be hard to choose, but here a few (a lot of) favorites.
Not only are the designs beautiful and completely customizable (colors, shape, greeting), but Minted is offering many extra details that make each one feel special – think coordinating and FREE recipient addressing, coordinating skinny wrap address labels, customizable envelopes with liners, different paper options, backer options, and even extra interior pieces if you want them!
Merry card and matching addressing…
May Your Days Be Joyful and matching labels…
It’s A Wonderful Life and matching addressing…
And as I mentioned each card comes with back of card options. Here’s an example of one.
Really good, right? I could have shown you fifty more that I love. So many cute designs over there. And right now through Oct 22nd you can take 15% off your Minted Holiday Card order with the code “LLL15” :) Happy creating!
PS: Any parents out there with creative kids? You need to see THIS!

My HP Sprout computer has been hi-jacked by my children. Seriously. They’ve discovered that they can scan in their favorite toys and dolls and make their own custom dress up games.
You can scan an item into the Sprout by laying it on the interactive touch mat. Or if you wish to create a high resolution, full color 3D digital model you can place your object on this 3D capture stage. It rotates around while it 3D scans (and it comes with sticky putty so you can secure your object if needed)!
At this point nearly every doll we have has been scanned in. Swords, play food, jewelry, flowers, you name it, have also been photographed.
You can manipulate your objects on the interactive touch mat by touching, tapping, and dragging – allowing you to move and pinch them into different sizes and angles. Both Lilly and Fletcher love “dressing up” their toys!
Because it just doesn’t always work in real life… ha!
The HP Sprout all in one desktop comes loaded with scenes that are really meant to be used as invitation and card layouts, but my kids just delete the wording and use the scene for their dolls. So sometimes they’re in outer space, or on a picnic, etc… It’s pretty fun :) Check out more fun project ideas in the Sprout creator gallery.
PS: Lilly’s stripe with bow dress is Kate Spade. I’m wearing this plaid top.
