Photo Friday: Summer Holidays

So I'm pretty sure it goes without saying that you can expect absent, late, & really late content on here for the next foreseeable future.  I'm OK with that, as I fully believe pictures capture memories & I love sharing memories.  Speaking of which, here are a few from the 1st & the 4th of July...

More Gingham, Please...

In the spirit of wrapping all things summer up this week (here's finally hoping), I'm sharing one more way I styled this beauty of a summer dress.  It wasn't an exaggeration when I said this is my dress of summer, Old Navy really nailed it on this one.

RW&B 2018

Don't mind me, just sharing some 4th of July pics over here.  Man oh man, I had one of those days yesterday where nothing went as planned & I didn't even cross off half my to-do list.  I felt unaccomplished/behind on everything, & was cranky about it (just ask my Mr.). I'm slowly learning that with the needs of a growing family comes a little give to what I still feel matters most...a clean house isn't always important when football is on & we're all curled up on the couch together. Today is a new day & it's FALL...so naturally I basic white girled it & wore uggs while sipping on a pumpkin spice latte ;)

Red + White

A little red + white action I wore for Canada Day this year.  Technically, it was the day after Canada Day if I'm aiming for accuracy.  I was a little hesitant deciding on this dress, as I just didn't know how appropriate it would be for work, chasing kids, life in general.  I am so glad I bough it...it's perfect for everything & a little bit more put together than what I normally look for in a summer dress.  Tossed my hair into a top knot & grabbed an easy pair of sandals to complete the look...

Endless Rose

Skipping 'What's New Wednesday' in an attempt to get all these summery-posts caught up.  It's almost officially Fall & I cannot wait.  Temps are starting to cool off & my house is begging for fall decor, fingers crossed I find some time to do just that this weekend.

This outfit though, kinda perfect for a dinner out?! Totally agree.  This is as dressy as I get these days & I'd say this couldn't be more 'my style'.  Boyfriend jeans, a pretty/girly blouse, & a pair of booties...I could do this all day, every day :)

Flowers & Coins

I'm back, yet again! August ended with a bang, we were super swamped at work & at home, preparing for the girls to be off of daycare while our provider took a few weeks off for vacation.  We took an 8 day trip to Iowa & had a great time visiting/catching up with everyone.  Yesterday was my first day back to the office & today was our first day back to our usual schedule of daycare drop-offs & timmy runs.

I shot this outfit post just before we left, before I changed my hair (more on that coming soon). I spotted this dress on a trip to Target in Iowa City & it just gave off that 'free people' vibe.  I already knew it'd pair perfectly with these open-toed booties & coin necklace, the cardigan was just an easy way to offset the freezing temps from the AC units in the office.
