Instagram Roundup .213

 

Hey y'all! It's been a couple week since I shared an Instagram Roundup so today's post contains a lot of outfits and style inspiration. I have been having so much fun putting together looks, even if it's just something that I am going to wear around the house. I know a lot of people love fall style but I really love spring + summer clothes! I also just really love summertime in general!

Currently Loving .193

Happy Friday! I hope you have had a great week! Our week has been busy prepping for back to school. My girls had their first day of fifth and third grade yesterday! They are going two days a week in person (at least for now) and three days of days a week of distance learning. It's going to be a very different year but they are so excited to be back at school and they both had great first days!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm currently loving. This time of year, I usually start to add pieces to my closet that I can transition into fall. But, honestly, it's been kind of hard to do that because it's been so hot and humid here! However, I did find one really great piece that will totally work right now and in cooler weather. I really love versatile pieces!

Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!

1. T R I N I T Y  S W E A T E R | This is the most recent addition to my closet and it is going to transition perfectly into fall! This week, I wore it with the sleeves rolled up a couple of times and front tucked into my favorite pair of denim shorts. It will also be great with high waisted denim in the fall! The fabric is like a waffle knit so it's breathable, even in the summer humidity. The fit is true to size. You can get it for 15% off with my code EMILY15!


2. C L O G S | I have always loved the look of clogs but I haven't added any to my closet yet. I am really loving this pair of clog sandals! The color would go with everything.


3. L I N E N  D R E S S | I keep realizing that I need a midi length black dress in my closet. This linen one is a closet staple! It would be super cute right now on it's on or even with a tee layered on top. It will also move with you into fall by adding a denim jacket or a cardigan! Bonus: this particular dress is currently on sale. I think it's going to make it's way into my cart!


4. B A G | How gorgeous is this bag?! I have been really wanting an animal print bag in this style and shape. This is definitely a wish list item and I hope it goes on sale soon! I love it!


5. T A N K | I am still loving sweater tanks! I just found this adorable one that comes in lots of great colors. I love this color, especially for moving into fall. It would be great for layering!


6. T E E | These super budget friendly tees are my very favorite. I reach for them more than any other basic tees! They are eight dollars, fit true to size, and the quality is amazing. I highly recommend!


7. E A R R I N G S | I have been living in my little gold hoops but I am really drawn to this pair of earrings. They make a statement without being too much of a statement, if that makes sense, lol. They are definitely on my wish list, too!


8. C A R L Y N  D R E S S | Leopard print is my love language! How pretty is this little dress?! It's another great piece that works great on it's own right now but would be so lovely with a jacket and ankle boots when the weather cools off. You can also save 15% off with my code EMILY15!


Thank you so much for visiting! I hope you have a great weekend!

Happy Friday! I hope you have had a great week! Yesterday, we went to pick up Julianna's computer and school schedule. My girls go to a charter school and the fifth through eighth graders go to the middle school. How is she already going to middle school?! Time is seriously just flying by, way too fast. I am certain that time moves faster when you become a parents, well at least after they are potty trained. The days of changing diapers seem to move so slowly, lol!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving and every single one of my pickthis week are from my beloved Madewell! Also, almost almost everything is also on sale for an additional 30% off the sale price with the code WHATADEAL. I haven't really purchased a lot this spring + summer but the deals that Madewell has been having lately has had me doing some shopping. I have added several really cute pieces to my wardrobe... for a great deal!

Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!

1. E A R R I N G S | I have currently been loving small gold hoops. I love layering my necklaces so I feel like I need to balance out the necklaces (and arm party) with smaller, more simple earrings. This cute pair from Madewell is on my wish list!



2. T E E | I have a thing for gray tees and my closet is proof. I love throwing on a gray tee with denim and gold jewels for easy look. This tee is so cute!


3. B A G | Isn't this bag beautiful?! The style is so cute and I am loving the leopard print. This bag would also transition perfectly into fall + winter!


4. S W E A T E R | I already own and absolutely love this sweater tee! It's one of my favorite recent purchases. The quality and detail are just even better in person! The fit is true to size.


5. T O P | The details on the straps of this top are just so pretty! I really want to add this to my cart ASAP. It would pair perfectly with shorts, jeans, or a skirt!


6. S A N D A L S | These sandals have been on my wish list for awhile and now that they are on sale, I might have to finally buy them! Metallic sandals are my favorite.


7. S K I R T | This denim skirt is a classic piece! I already own and love a similar skirt that I wear often. Mine has had a spot in my closet for years!


8. B R A C E L E T | This is another item that I recently purchased and love! I think I have worn this bracelet just about everyday since it arrived in my mailbox. It's so comfortable to wear and of course, it's cute! I love layering it with other bracelets, too.


Thank you so much for visiting! I hope you have a great weekend!

Currently Loving .191

Happy Friday! I hope you have had a great week! Last weekend, my husband and I spontaneously purchased a spin bike from Facebook Marketplace. It was something that I had been wanting for my home workouts but when we saw the bike for such a great deal, we had to get it! I would have loved to purchase a Peloton bike but it just wasn't in the budget. So, this bike is a great compromise plus I can use the workouts on the Peloton app with it! Such a great budget friendly solution and it has totally got me back into gear as far as working out goes. Exercise is great for physical health but I personally need it for more mental health so much more. The Peloton workouts have been so encouraging for me and I am finally motivated to exercise again!

Today, I'm sharing my weekly roundup of what I'm Currently Loving! I got in a bad habit starting back in March of just wearing ultra comfy clothes around the house. I kept "saving" my special clothes for special occasions. But, when I realized that we weren't just staying home for two weeks, I had to start wearing my favorite spring and summer clothes! Don't save clothes for special occasions; everyday is special enough to wear what you love and what you feel good in! I already own number three and it made my Thursday working from home even more special. There's lots of great pieces in this week's roundup to wear now and later!

Which of this week's picks is your favorite?!

1. D R E S S | I have a thing for little black dresses! They are so timeless and they instantly make you feel beautiful. I'm really love the sleeves and the button detail on this one! You can save 15% off with my discount code EMILY15!


2. G O L D  S A N D A L S | I absolutely love metallic sandals! They are just my favorite. I love this strappy pair and they remind me so much of a pair that I bought last year. So perfect for wearing with dresses and skirts and shorts and everything!

3.  B L A C K  T O P | This is the top I wore yesterday and it's just so flattering! The buttons are functional so this would also be a great top for nursing mamas. The fit is true to size, too. I plan to wear this throughout the rest of summer and transition it into fall with jeans!


4. L E O P A R D  S A N D A L S | How cute are these sandals?! They also look incredibly comfortable. They are currently on sale right now, too! Such a great summer shoe!


5. B A G | This bag is also on sale and it's such a great crossbody bag! You just can't go wrong with leather bags from Madewell. The quality and size is always amazing.


6. J E A N S | As much as I love Madewell bags, I equally love Madewell denim. I have tried so many pairs of jeans but I always come back to Madewell. I love the fit and they last forever! I personally size down one size from my normal denim size in their. I am really loving the style of this pair!


7. H E A D B A N D | Is it possible to have too many headbands?! For me, I don't think so! I literally wear one almost every single day and I share them with my daughters. My favorite and my comfortable ones are from J. Crew. They don't hurt my head at all!


8. W H I T E  T O P | White tops are my favorite! I have quite the collection of cream, off white, and white tops in my closet. I love pairing them with denim! This cute top would be great with shorts when it's still warm or a cool summer night but it would also be fantastic with jeans in the fall. I love finding pieces that I can wear through multiple seasons!


Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have an amazing weekend!

Instagram Roundup .212


style on a budget, instagram roundup, madewell, summer style, nc blogger, north carolina blogger
Hey everyone! I hope you are having a great week so far! I'm living that mom/work from home life... going on month number four. We did find out that our girls will be going back to school two days a week (other three will be remote learning) in early August. Soooo... that means it's time to get in gear and do a little bit of back to school shopping! The main thing they needed was shoes so I just ordered these sneakers for both of my girls. Black sneakers for kids is the way to go! They stay looking clean for so much longer and these wash up really well in the machine, too.

Today, I'm sharing my bi-weekly Instagram Roundup, including all of the outfits that I have worn the past two weeks. I have honestly been better about actually getting dressed the past few weeks because it really does trick my brain into being more productive. I have also added a few new pieces to my wardrobe so that makes getting dressed a little more fun!
