LoveShackFancy Shirelle Pullover

Tularosa Shorts

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

Wow, it's been over a week since we took these pictures.  Time has been flying by now that I'm homeschooling my kids.  I've been enjoying it though.  We know a lot of people are affected by this virus and I just feel lucky we're safe at home.

Onto brighter things, like this gorgeous LoveShackFancy sweater.  I mean, this sweater has my name written all over it.  It's pink, has a heart print and has balloon sleeves!  It's perfection.  It has warmed up here a lot so I paired this very warm sweater with a pair of white, lace Tularosa shorts.  My 10 yo son has been taking my pictures, but my 7 yo daughter wanted to get in on the action.  She really got into it and even got down on the ground, ha!

This gorgeous sweater also comes in another colour ('Prune'), which is on sale!

Stay safe and happy (online) shopping!

Flynn Skye Justine Romper

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

Last week we had gorgeous weather and it was bittersweet of course with everything that's going on.  We've been practicing social distancing since school was cancelled, but after days spent indoors, we decided to head to the park parking lot so that our kids could ride their bikes and get some fresh air.  I wore this cute Flynn Skye floral romper.  I love rompers and even though I probably am too old to wear a romper, I will never stop ha.  They're just so easy to slip on and head out the door.  I love that you can wear this romper with sleeves or off-the-shoulder.

Thank you to my 10 yo son who took these pictures.  It seems strange to take pictures/blog these days but taking pictures has been keeping my son occupied (more posts to come) and getting dressed has been keeping me sane.  Plus, of course, I ordered a lot of clothes days before the close of school, etc.

Stay safe,

flutter sleeve

Spell & The Gypsy Collective Coco Lei Flutter Sleeve Playdress

Dolce Vita Serra Bootie

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

We had such beautiful weather recently so we took full advantage and headed to the park (where most of my 'photoshoots' take place).  I wore this Spell flutter sleeve playdress.  I love the colour and print of this dress, but was really drawn to the flutter sleeves.  This dress is 'part 70's glamour, part bohemian dream and the perfect dress for sun-drenched days and balmy nights'.  I'm a sucker for anything 'boho', as you could probably tell if you've been reading my blog.  And I love 70's fashion.  (I will always love a flare jean and a peasant blouse.)  This dress was a no-brainer for me.

Speaking of peasant blouses, Spell is having a 4-day sale on sale items (an extra 20% off, using code SOS20!) and I scored this beautiful Spell blouse.

Happy shopping!

The Shopbop spring event is here!!  This event takes place every March where you can save up to 25% off everything (some exclusions apply) using code SPRING!  I'm eyeing everything from a new pair of sandals to a pretty blouse.  As you will probably notice, everything I've picked out is lightly coloured (if not white).  I'm loving all of the pastels and ruffles.  How pretty is the Free People Abigail Victorian Top?  It also comes in black, but I always gravitate toward anything other than black, especially for spring.  I own a pair of AGOLDE Parker Vintage Cutoff Shorts (as seen on the blog here) and they are my absolute favourite so I'm always excited to see a new colour.  A denim jacket is always a must for spring IMO.  I love the casual fit of the Free People Trucker Jacket.  It makes it easier to wear over anything from a sweater to a floral dress.  I think everyone should own a white knit sweater and a pair of white jeans.  I love pairing them together for a fresh look!  Add a pair of neutral booties, white sneakers, or a neutral (or pastel-coloured!) sandal.  Or add a pretty pastel-coloured bag for a pop of colour.  I'm obsessing over the The Marc Jacobs Crossbody Bag!

I'd love to hear what you scored at the Shopbop sale!  Comment below!

spring floral dress

Free People Petit Fours Mini Dress

Dolce Vita Serra Bootie
Free People Zoe Angular Sunglasses

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

Every spring I purchase at least one floral dress.  Free People is usually my go-to.  You can just throw on one of their dresses and feel (and look) put together.  This Petit Fours Mini Dress, which also comes in ivory, is perfect for spring because it has long sleeves but it's lightweight.  I paired this beautiful floral dress with Dolce Vita booties (that are now almost 50% off!) and my go-to Lack of Color hat.  This dress ties at the back and has an opening, which is that special Free People touch.  You could even wear it backwards (as seen on the ASOS site)!

Other floral dresses by Free People that I'm eyeing for spring:

Free People Feeling Groovy Midi Dress

Free People Iris Floral Long Sleeve Midi Dress

Free People Free Swinging Tunic Dress

Spring is in the air!  Well, it comes and goes.  But cardigans are here to stay and they're everywhere!  They're the perfect piece for transitioning into spring with and especially perfect for this all-over-the-place weather we've been having here in South Carolina.  I'm loving the feminine and intricate details of the cardigans I've been seeing.  I'm obsessed with the heart motif on this LoveShackFancy cardigan and love all the pretty colours of this Free People Dreaming Again Cardi.  This fuzzy cardigan from Urban Outfitters, which comes in 4 colours, looks SO cozy.  The yellow one looks so pretty!  I love the ruffles and crocheted flowers on this ZARA cardigan and the balloon sleeves on this ZARA cardigan.

I immediately fell in love with the For Love & Lemons Chateau Short Sleeve Cardigan I'm wearing as soon as I saw it.  Fuzzy?  Pink?  Puff sleeve?  Sold!  I love how bright the pink is, which is my favourite shade of pink.  For Love and Lemons has become a favourite of mine for knits and I'm especially loving their cardigans.  I love the hand-embroidered pink flowers on this cropped cardigan, as well as the oversized version.  I love the heart-shaped enamel eyelets on this peach cropped cardigan (they even have matching adorable knit shorts!).  The cardi I'm wearing has a matching cami (sold separately).  I love a sweater set, which is also a big trend for spring.  I'm obsessing over this teal floral crop cardigan and tank top by 4SI3NNA.  I'm also loving this cardigan and shorts combo and this cropped knit cardigan and knit top combo from ZARA.

Happy New Year!  Now that Dry January is over (for others it meant giving up drinking, for me it was giving up shopping), I have started online shopping again and I couldn't be more excited!  But after Christmas (and payment of our HOA fees in January), I'm a little price conscious.  Plus, there are a lot of things on sale right now so purchasing something 'new' for spring does not make as much sense as buying something on sale.  But once the new year hits, I start counting down until spring and it's hard not to shop for it.  I imagine a lot of you have the same mindset (a lot of new year's resolutions include saving money), so for the best of both worlds (being budget conscious and buying something new for spring), I decided to round up some of my favourite items that are all UNDER $100!

Happy shopping!
