HUNTINGTON PIER

When we were in California for fall break in October, we arranged to have some beach pictures taken of the kids. Lex wasn’t having it and instead of fighting her, we just had photos taken of Dylan and I couldn’t love them more. Well, maybe I could if I had matching pics of Lex…dyl1 dyl2 dyl7 dyl9 dyl4 dyl8 dyl6 dyl11We love Huntington Beach so it’s quite fitting that these were taken under Huntington Pier.  I can’t wait to print them and hang them in our new home.  Speaking of the new house, we went from a slab to a fully framed house last week!

NOVEMBER WISHES

I can’t believe we are already halfway through November.  Where has the year gone?  We still (can you believe it) haven’t gotten fall weather yet, ugh.  We get cooler temperatures in the mornings and evenings but mid day is still well into the 80’s.  I can’t wait to change out our shorts and tee’s for jeans and long sleeves.

I am so in love with Childhoods Clothing’s fall line.  Their stuff is just the coziest for fall and winter days and nights.  The new peplum sweatshirt is a favorite for Lex and I love the button details on the hoodie for Dylan.  The details make it so much more than just a sweatshirt.  November Wishescup | plate | hoodie | gobble banner | peplum top | bows

The turkey on these cups and plates are so fun.  I love the feathers and know my kids would love to eat and drink from them for every meal.  The kids are sure to love these placemats too.  The gobble sign is the perfect addition for simple Thanksgiving decor before busing out the big guns for Christmas.  And finally, the wine colored bows are the perfect pairing with the mustard peplum (or even the peacock hoodie) for fall.  Paired with some skinny jeans or jeggings and boots or sneakers and your little lady is ready for any adventure.

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: DAY TWO

This post contains affiliate links. That means if you click on a link and make a purchase from the site, I will earn a small commission from the sale.

It’s day two of the 12 days of Christmas and I’m so excited to share today’s look with you!  It’s the perfect everyday dress.  It’s a bit festive, reminds me of a candy cane, but can easily be worn past the holidays and still be appropriate.  I mean, how cute would it be for Valentine’s Day?  I love pieces like this for Lex.

Since we lead a very casual lifestyle and Lex is in daycare all week, fancy dresses don’t get a ton of use.  Lately all she wants to wear are “twirly” dresses.  I love the stripes and it’s got the twirl factor for her.  I can see her wearing this one all the time!

I love the striped dress with the unexpected mint tights.  We would wear it with sneakers for running around town or running on the playground and a cutest bow for the holidays!  It would also be super cute with this mint bow or pom hat, or with our favorite gold glitter clip.  And for colder weather, I love this cozy sweater with it!  Easy, stylish and comfortable.  Perfect for making everyday a little merrier during the holidays!

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: DAY ONE

Welcome to the 12 days of Christmas, in November. I’ve come across so many cute Christmas pieces in the last week or two that I thought it would be fun to share a few of my favorites before they are no longer available.

This custom fabric dress is from one of our favorite small shops. I love that it’s short sleeve for our warm Christmases and can easily be layered for colder climates.  The snowflake print can be worn all winter long which is also a plus in my book.  The neutral pallet allows for many perfect pairings.  I choose a white velvet bow to complement the snowflakes, bright red tights perfect for any holiday event and metallic boots.

FIVE FALL DRESSES

We’ve finally caught up with the rest of the country and fall is on our minds over here. I’ve been cleaning out the kids closets and they both are in need of fall and winter clothing in a major way.  Today I thought it would be fun to share five fall dresses I am loving for Lex. Since we have a mild fall and she is all about dresses right now; these long sleeve dresses will be perfect once the weather gets just a little bit cooler.five fall dresses

I love the neutrals and blues as an unexpected twist on the classic fall colors of mustard, orange and red. With her red hair, blue really pops and looks so pretty on her.

Dylan is on fall break this week and we have something really fun planned later in the week.  I can’t wait to share what we are doing.  Get ready for some over gramming (follow us on Instagram here). Happy Monday friends.
