    Blessed by warmer South Carolina weather

    shirt | jeans | boots | lip | necklace Y’all, I am so happy I could do a little dance. After an entire week, my husband is finally home! He had to take a work trip and for six days it was just me and the kids. We made it through but it was tough. I took a break from social media last weekend because the kids just needed my full attention and it was much appreciated. My appreciation for single parents or ones with spouses overseas grows bigger by the minute and being alone with the kids for almost a week directed a lot of my thoughts towards them!…

I don’t know about anyone else but I am over here singing “just keep swimming” over and over and over again. This post was supposed to go live on Monday but I have so much going on that it just made it’s way to my blog today. I have a lot of stuff that is weighing heavily on my mind… my Dad is having health issues and my 10 year old doggie is not doing the best either. On top of that, I have all the kids with me and I’ve had…

    Booties, booties, booties – Rockin’ Everywhere

    Meet my most favorite arriving Fall trend this year: BOOTIES! If you’ve been studying what’s happening this season, then you know that booties are the muse of fashion loving Moms all over. This time of the year I become jealous of anyone above the Mason Dixon line who is able to post pictures in cozy sweaters, blanket scarves and knee socks. As the weather here in South Carolina has yet to turn the corner, I’ve been playing with this trend by checking out the Shirley booties from Dansko at Dillard’s. What gets a sun and sand kind of girl pumped for a wardrobe change is the opportunity to style new pieces…

    Blush and White

    top | shorts | bangles | sunglasses The weeks are flying by at this point, but I am continuing to find great maternity pieces to wear in my third trimester. The heat and humidity in South Carolina have arrived, and they aren’t showing any mercy, so staying cool is something I TRY to accomplish. I wore this beautiful blush top and eyelet shorts on Fathers Day and received so many compliments that I wanted to share with y’all! This top is SO flattering, and it’s a great material for summer. It doesn’t stick to you and helps you stay cool in the warmer months. I’ve really enjoyed the versatility of…
