OBSESSED: My Summer Style Must Haves!

So these are the things I am wearing A LOT of right now…

STRIPES! It’s unhealthy really. I’m embarassed to say a few things were in the laundry too. Stripes being a style craze this summer makes me a happy little clam. Black and white stripes paired with something bright/neon or bright stipes paired with navy or black are the looks I am really drawn to. Don’t belive me? The proof is in the Pinterest board ladies!

FLAT SANDALS! It’s over 100 degrees in Cleveland right now and the last thing I want to do is strut around in heels all day. Flat sandals are my favorite becuase they are so versatile – they can be dressed up or dressed down. They look effortless but we know you tried becuase you’re not wearing flip flops. Oh and I am also proud to say that not one single pair of these sandals cost me more than $20. Oh hey Target, hey Marshalls!

POCKET TEES!
Another shameless shout out to Target becuase thier boyfriend pocket tees are a summer essential! Calm down Kristin, I am giving you your credit right now. My friend Kristin turned me on to these bad boys. They come in tons of really fun colors and the price is right. $8 is not a big committment to try this summer’s neon trend! And sometimes they are on sale for $6 – I know, well I’ll be a monkey’s uncle right?

WEEKLY SNAPSHOTS: A Few Firsts

Some highlights this past week that were worth Instagramming included drinking out of my $5 clearance Anthropologie mug (with my first glitter accent nail no less), vintage sconces arriving from Etsy (that Charlie has yet to hang despite my persistance), building up the courage to buy my first summer fedora and baking my first quiche to accompany Charlie’s awesome chemex brew featuring PT coffee’s Columbia Peaberry (what an amazing cup of coffee!).

WEEKEND IN REVIEW: Baby Bumps, Fire Pits & Bubble Mowers!

It was a fabulous long weekend for me! I had to be in Columbus for a meeting on Thursday morning so I took some PTO and hung out with my BFF Audra and met her baby bump for the first time. Greyson is due in October and I can’t wait to meet him. It was so hot all we could do is shop so we scored some adorbs onesies for baby G. Then on Saturday night we met up with some friends for brewskies and s’mores around a fire pit. Possibly one of my fave thigns to do a summer night! Then on Sunday we celebrated Charlie’s little cousin’s third birthday. We got him a Fisher Price bubble mower which was a nice trip down memory lane for both of us becuase if you were ever a child then you probably had one!
