Weekend Escape

There was a lot of fun on our weekend escape down at the Rivah. The whole family on got together to enjoy some much needed time in the sun and water. I loved being able to spend more time with my nephew and nieces and brother and sister-in-law. It's a rare treat these days with both our families smack dab in the middle of raising three little ones. I managed to get a few pictures from our last day there.  This dress from Old Navy is super comfortable and soft.  It travels well too!  I think if I get it in another color it will be a size medium as I like a bit more draping and sometimes their clothes shrink.  When I pack, I have a shoe rule.  A weekend getaway gets three shoes max and that's only if I'm planning on working out while away.  Otherwise, pool/beach shoes and another … [Read more...]

Maximized

The Maxi dress is out now, right? Because I finally wore one. For the longest time I refused. Even when so many of my friends needled me about the benefits of the Maxi's charm, comfort and ease. I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I'm not tall enough and I have curves, I told myself. I finally picked one out.  The nice people over at East & Lo asked me if I wanted to check out their styles. I chose the Striped Maxi Dress in White & Black.   I was really excited to wear it and dress up a bit after a weekend of being covered in paint and DIY debris. Folks, the red walls in my living room and dining room are no more!  TD's room has been reborn with a white and aqua painted loft bed, which may include a mattress from that serta vs.sealy blog, where the closet was turned … [Read more...]

Chic & Affordable Valentine’s Day Dresses

When it comes to Valentine's Day all my hard ass ways go out the window. I'm such a sucker for this overly commercialized un-real holiday. Back in high school I considered it my duty to spend the weekend before the big red heart day making Valentine's to deliver to my friends at school. I just loved bringing in some pink, purple, red and doily-filled cheer. Even if the rest of the time I was clad in black and "mourning" something real or not. Yup, that was me. I love dressing in reds, pops of pink and making Valentine's for my girls bedroom doors each year. Let's get excited, whether you are with someone or not because these seven dresses below deserve to be worn and shown off! No matter what! And they are all under $50 so they won't sabotage your budget. … [Read more...]
