style: what i wore

Today is the last day of summer day camp and it's bittersweet. When I was a classroom teacher, I couldn't wait for summertime when I could just relax and recharge. The school year was always so hectic so I was thankful for a slower summertime pace. I've technically had summers "off" for awhile now until this summer. Our summer day camp was 20 days long and so full of fun. I have had a such a fun time enjoying the students we work during the school year and some new ones who joined us for the summertime. We have been able to fill our days with field trips, tons of fun, and lots of learning. It will be bittersweet to end summer camp but I can't wait for our school year program to start back up. Have a happy Friday, friends!

necklace

style: neon + dots

This past weekend, we went to South Carolina to visit family. I didn't pack too much for this trip, just my go-to summer items: t-shirts and shorts. It was so humid + just plain hot. 

These black and white polka dot shorts were perfect and so comfortable. They have an elastic waistband and pockets. These shorts have a 3-inch inseam but the loose style still makes them mommy friendly. I love, love, love these shorts. I have three different pairs in this style from J. Crew Factory and they never disappoint.

I added a pop of neon {I bought this Kate Spade purse for 80% off at the outlet earlier this month!} and my favorite Kendra Scott necklace. This outfit is definitely one that I will be repeating.

style: i love jewelry

The Southern girl in me loves a good monogram. Is it really yours if it isn't monogrammed? Haha, but seriously, I love monograms. When I first got married, seeing my new initials just made me even more excited about being married. As cheesy as it sounds, I loved getting a new last name and sharing a name with my husband. I think monograms are the perfect gift for a bride or anyone!



My new favorite place to get all of my personalized items is I Love Jewelry. Everything on their website is so stinkin' adorable at amazing prices. I had too much fun shopping their site.

My first pick was this 1.25 lace monogrammed necklace. I have always wanted a necklace like this because it's so classic and goes with everything. I paired mine with a swing dress, wedges, and a bright purse. I've also worn it a few times with a t-shirt to work at summer camp. It's such a versatile piece.

My next pick was this monogram crossbody tassel bag. The color and big, bold tassel caught my eye right away. I also love this style of monogram. I've seen it on more expensive, designer bags but this adorable little bag is much more affordable. It's now my go-to bag! It adds the perfect pop of color to any outfit.

My last pick were these monogram denim pom pom shorts. And how fun are they?! I couldn't resist the cute little pom poms and embroidered trim.

Be sure to follow I Love Jewelry for more affordable and adorable monogrammed items.

currently loving: recent buys

Anyone else craving warm temperatures, sandals, and skirts? I know I am.  Today I'm sharing my most recent buys for spring and summer. Before I make a purchase, I put items on my wish list then add them to my online cart. I rarely buy things before letting them sit in my online cart for a day or so. The embellished sandals were an exception. J. Crew sells an almost identical pair of these sandals that I was loving last year and I saw them again this year for $200. Last week, I was browsing Target's website and found a look for less option that was about $20. Sold. I can't wait to style these pretty sandals all spring and summer.

What are your recent buys?
