Lilly’s first street style post… I am so excited about this new series. I have apprehension of course, as a Mother, but I think it’s going to be fun. It’s something I’ve thought about doing for probably 2 years now. Lilly has really enjoyed it so far.

This is really a look Lilly borrowed from me. I wear denim on denim a lot. It’s just casual and easy. Lilly pulls this chambray shirt out of her closet (or dirty hamper) all the time. It’s one of her most favorite tops to wear because it’s so soft and comfy. I love it because it pairs nicely with most anything she throws it on with, be that leggings or a tutu, ha!

Lilly also loves a good arm party (and loves it even more now that she knows it’s called an arm party). The more jewelry the better, in her eyes.

“Strike a pose, Lilly.” This is what she gave us. Sweet girl.

You may have noticed a couple of new labels that you can browse my blog by over there on the left. I added a “What I’m Wearing” tab so that you can pull up all of my outfit posts. But what I’m really excited about is the “Lilly Likes” tab. More about this soon, but you’re going to be seeing more of Lilly here on LLL.

 

She’s been growing tall and like a weed so some new spring purchases have been in order. Here are a few of my favorite most recent items for Lilly that you’ll see in the weeks ahead. Everything below is from Gap & Target.

Thank you for such a warm response to my last Life Lately post. I’ve decided to bring it back. So here’s another…

 

Lilly’s really into dress up, I feel like I’m constantly picking up clothes and things and doing laundry. But how cute is this feather headband?

I getting baby fever over here with all my friends’ new wee ones. This is Charlotte’s sweet Lucie. I can’t get enough of her Petit Bateau wardrobe that Char dresses her in. Isn’t she the snuggliest little gal?

And on Sunday I visited Lindsey’s new twins at her sip & see party. Gah baby fever (I have no business having another). She looks amazing.

Here’s the ghd flat iron that I’ve been using (and talked about in yesterday’s What I Wore post). Seriously love it!

My new Jane Pope mismatched earrings are my favorite favorites right now. Aren’t they so fun?

My mother in law got me these bowls from One Kings Lane and we’ve been using them every single day, they just make life happier. Sometimes it’s the little things… Anthropologie has a huge collection of bowls like this right here.

I’ve been walking (and trying to jog) the neighborhood a lot lately. These New Balance sneakers are totally my jam.

I got so hungry from pinning Super Bowl recipes that I had to make my ham delights. They are the bomb.

And ahhhh these Castaner sandals, I’m so in love with them. I’m going to wear them everywhere as soon as the weather turns. They come in a black stripe too. If I could justify it I’d get both.

Also, I’ve had a lot of you email about subscribing to LLL via email so that new posts will be emailed to your inbox. Stitch added the little link to the bottom of all my posts so now it’s easy to register for that! Hope that helps.

This commercial by Bing is everything. Gives me the warm and fuzzes and inspires. These ladies rock.

Life lately has been full.  Here’s a snippet…

 

I’ve been secretly stashing new spring things. I’m most excited about using this LF citrus clutch and these LR sandals. Considering I dressed my model at the NYFW runway event with that clutch, I knew I had to have one for myself. And those sandals, well they’re going to be on my feet all spring and summer. So comfy with a little heel that doesn’t feel like it’s there at all.

Lilly and Fletcher lended themselves to Marysia Swim for her new Bumby swimsuits photoshoot. They were pretty adorable. More pictures coming soon.

I don’t even wear prescriptions but I’ve jumped on the Warby Parker train. These Greta sunnies have been glued to my face.

Like everywhere else, the weather here in Charleston has been crazy. It’s been warmer the last few days but we had a day of 22 degrees!! That doesn’t happen here. I’m afraid all my plants are dunzo. Anyway, it’s been a good excuse to wear my Jeffrey Campbell booties a lot.

I made a new favorite lunch discovery… Chicken salad + mayo + red pepper jelly. It’s crazy good. Try it.

I pulled the trigger on this floral dress while at Hampden yesterday. Can’t wait to show y’all. It was one of those things that it just fit too well and felt too good. Plus I have something special to wear it to. That always helps, right?

I know I don’t usually do these kind of posts as much now… do you like them? Let me know what you think.

This little birdy went to King Street. This little birdy stayed home. This little birdy popped truffles all day. This little birdy had none. And this little birdy cried “weee weee I got new bedding” all the way home.

Nothing smells like a new year like fresh sheets and towels. Do yourself a favor and shop the sale here. This with these is my favorite combo. And we use these towels and love them!
