POPS of Color
The transition from Winter to Spring is not only seen outdoors but with our wardrobes as well. Our goes our winter wear like heavy coats, dark jewel tones and warm boots and in comes shortsleeves, bright colors and patterns. I love a good neutral but POPS of color always catch my eye. Since I was in high school, I’ve coveted Lilly Pulitzer pieces. They are a huge investment so I opt for pieces that I LOVE and know I get lots of wear out of.

On the weekends, Nolan and Harper normally help Derrek make pancakes with lots of berries, bananas and nuts. They…

My top | skirt | bag | necklace Harper and Scarlet Reese’s shoes | SR bow | bandana bib Spring is here and we are loving it! We spend, at the least, a few hours outside everyday and it feels amazing. One thing that Derrek and I realized over the weekend is how we stayed busy and the kids were not bickering as much. So, I guess that’s the key for keeping the peace, ha! On Saturday, we ended up going to look at houses because we plan on moving at some point this year. I don’t know about y’all but the thought of moving is exciting and terrifying at…
