Sometime last spring I accidentally ripped the handle off of my everyday tote. We were headed into the summer months, so I happily switched out my bag to my summer tote and didn't think about it again until the week before Labor Day. That's when I started searching for the perfect work tote bag that could hold my laptop, wallet, and other everyday essentials (including a kids' water bottle, snacks, and the occasional toy car, too). Searching for the perfect work tote bag I am one of those …

Mommy and Me Gingham
If I could choose only one pattern to wear for the rest of my life, it would have to be gingham. There's something about it that makes me happy. When I found matching "mommy and me" outfits for me and E, I knew I had to get them for our Sedona trip. I call this "the country club dress" because it has the most perfect collar. The toddler gingham dress is actually on sale right now, so I'm buying it in the next size up! And I wasn't too sure about my gingham shorts, at first, but I ended …

Hair Accessories for Spring and Summer
Last summer I bought matching headbands for me and E, and I LOVED how well mine kept my hair out of my face. My hair is naturally curly (and frizzy in humidity). It's not the easiest type of hair to have in the summer, especially at the beach. (That's why you'll mostly see my hair up in a bun when I'm in a humid climate - there's just not much I can do with it!) Photo from this Orlando hotel post I've found some really cute hair things lately, and I'm just trying to decide what to buy and …
The Best One Piece Swimsuits
I'm so happy that one piece swimsuits are on trend. There's something about a cute one piece that makes me feel so much better on the beach or at the pool when I know I'll be spending my time chasing a toddler instead of lounging and reading a good book. (Ah... how life changes!) Today I'm rounding up my favorite one piece swimsuits at every price point and sharing where I go to get great swimsuits that won't break the bank. Where I shop for one-piece swimsuits I have a long torso, so that …
