Spring Layers

Emerging from all things neutral & dim for the time being.  The obvious pops of color stacked on top of boyfriend-style denim & an essential nude pump.  I swear I could wear this combination year round...

An Evening on the Deck

Tuesday night deck duty, wearing a newer pair of boyfriend jeans & my go to birks.  We've been waiting all month to be able to sit outside, drink a few pints, & grill out...

One Last Time

This lace top (in its perfect lacey sheerness) caught my eye on instagram & sorta stayed on my mind until I finally pulled the trigger.  It's that essential piece that begs to be layered under a chunky knit for an added touch of femininity.  We've reached that point in the year where there's still enough chill in the air to wear knitwear one last time...

Settling Back In...

A selection of things this past weekend.  Right now, unpacking & repacking for Boston this coming weekend is more valid than anything else.  Oh, besides settling back into a normal routine, I suppose that was definitely a priority...

Giant box of goodies...

New rope earrings from J.Crew that I've already worn 5 times...

Savoring this chocolate chip bagel from Panera that has become so hard to find...

My mom & her creativity...

Birthday beers, stocked in the bar fridge...

This little one is growing & has discovered napping on our bed is the best thing ever...

Ginger lemon tea from Coffee Culture made my Saturday a whole lot better...

Photo Friday: Road Trippin'

Road tripped it to Iowa last weekend to celebrate a 34th birthday & wedding anniversary.  Between vet visits (scheduled in advance) & visitors dropping by, there was little time for much else.  I hadn't been back since last November, so needless to say, a lot of catching up had to be done...

Freshly cracked beer, directly after a long day of travel...

Ahhh all things NEW that seem to have piled up...(U.O., Ebay, Free People, F21, Victoria's Secret)

Pre-Anniversary/Birthday Dinner with Beer tubes!

A fresh pedi & my favorite lace-up sandals...

The celebration table

Boston creme cupcakes that were amazing...

Popped open a box from Amazon, just in time for warm weather...

Pitchers & Pool last Saturday afternoon

Visited some family on their farm & remembered these from my childhood...

No road trip to Iowa would be complete without Panera's Frozen Mochas

Wrapped everything in garbage bags to combat the rain, I'm sure it looked extremely classy...

Happy Weekend :)

Casual Nautical

One of the few, simple outfits I packed for our visit back to the Midwest last week.  These earrings have been awaiting my arrival for a month or so, which were of course factored into this outfit from the beginning...

To Trying New Things...

The past two weeks were completely devoted to trying new things.  New restaurants, new online stores, & traveling with a puppy for 9 hours.  I needed a few days to fully get caught up with everything, so get ready for a lot of fun new arrivals...

Tested out State & Main, the food was so good & they brew their own beers...

First order from Just Fab & I'm impressed...

Tell Tale

The tell tale signs that pink remains one of my favorites.  I couldn't resist this pairing, sort-of folklore meets boho...

On the Go...

On the go again, this time back to the Midwest for a few days.  I have a ton more to pack, considering we're taking both dogs & one is still confined to a kennel.  All that's coming with me are simple basics paired with flats for some quality family time...

Bag & Necklace (crewcuts), Flats (Chinese Laundry)

A few gifts & my favorite cardigan (free people)

Sunny Disposition

The snow is completely gone & proper coats have become a thing of the past, at least for the time being.  Layered under this over-sized-sunshine-hued knit this morning, which when paired with these heels, creates the perfect balance of casual & chic...
