Spring Floral Dresses

Floral Dress // Purple Sandals // Nude Sandals

Hey girls, wanted to share something a little different today– I mentioned earlier in the week I was going to do a little Spring and Easter Outfit Inspiration– We are still planning on celebrating in our house including getting a little dressed up – it gives us something to look forward to! The boys and I did a little post on what to do for gifting and some fun ideas to get outside– and I couldn’t pass up on a chance to chat about some easy options to make Spring fun for dressing up too! (Honestly just creating this post for you all put me in such a good mood)

No you aren’t seeing double this is in fact the same dress, I just loved it so much I bought it twice! I recently found this dress at Nordstrom online (spoiler alert under $45) and immediately loved the smocking with the long sleeves. I don’t always like to go sleeveless in the Spring just because the weather can be a little back and forth- but loved that the design felt light enough that its still weather forward and even fun for a shower or party in the summer too. I loved the smocking on the neck and around the waist, this style is always so figure flattering!

Thank you to Nordstrom for Sponsoring today’s post. As always all opinions here are my own.

Kids Easter Ideas: Thinking outside the Basket

Crazy times we are living in friends, two things we know for sure: 1. We are all in this together and 2. It will come to an end. Life as we know it now will be radically different and the world will be better for it. My thoughts and prayers are with those families that are being directly affected by this virus. Thank you to all the health care, first responders, grocery store employees, delivery drivers! You are all making a difference in our lives and we Thank YOU for all you do!

Just for fun and because they are so cute, this is a picture of the boys Easter 2018. 🙂

Easter is on the way soon even though our Celebrations will look a little different this year— Our plans will still include our family and we will have a fun brunch with mimosas, set the table, get fresh flowers and wear some bright colors! We are so thankful for the true meaning of Easter and for our family its an important holiday.

We also look forward to the fun baskets, candy egg hunts etc– but this year I am looking for a few fun things OUTSIDE! Quarantine life is a little tough inside and in Ohio our weather gets a little nicer come mid April-so the boys and I thought we could grab a few ideas for you in case you are looking for some!

OUTSIDE THE BASKET! Target candy and chocolate bunnies are galore so I don’t think you need help there. Think it’s a perfect time to grab a few ideas that are perfect for outside!

Another thought we had is do a typical Easter basket and if you wanted to support a local business–grab your local yearly Zoo pass for when they reopen, or an aquarium! Those would be fun activities to get out and still enjoy all the family time we are all getting accustomed to!

On a more adult note, no Easter brunch (at least in my house) is complete without a fun Spring Cocktail– here is a little cocktail inspiration and the one we are making on Easter Morning!

Girls I hope you enjoy this family time and continue to seek the Joy in each day that passes. One day we will look back and see how much our family is closer together ( and how much we learn about Tiger King) and not worry so much about what our kids aren’t learning in school! Enjoy. your week friends! xo, Sarah

Holiday Charcuterie Board Inspiration

I am all about the appetizers in the holiday season! At Christmas we typically just have appetizers instead of the traditional meals! We always have fun chilling and not even worrying at all about the food! So the easiest thing I always do is a Charcuterie Board- full of everyones favorites! Its always a party hit and so simple to make!

The Holiday Charcuterie Board of your dreams is possible with just a few simple steps! So the exact items are honestly not as important as just having a well rounded Board. This means having items that are sweet/savory and a little spicy! Its exactly how created the board I have here in my post! And too: Keep in mind, you are able to make it however you want! more informal situations I just throw it together with whatever I have! 😉

So here’s the list to help ya!

Salami (Hard Meats) | Plain Crackers Or Pretzels | Sweet Cracker | Soft Cheese | Hard Cheese| Smoked Cheese | Green Olives | Sweet Pickle | Black Grapes | Candied Pecans | Pepper Jelly |

Holiday Style with Nordstrom

Hey girls! So so excited to be partnering with Nordstrom today on the blog! We have only 10 Days until Christmas and then we all have New Year’s Eve to look forward to, and party season is in full swing!

We have a few parties coming up in the next couple weekends, and these looks are going to come in handy! I styled a fun holiday look today to help you with a little party inspiration. Love love the new arrivals they have so full of sparkle, shine and velvet always elevates your outfit! You know that I also MUST wear outfits that are comfortable and that I can wear later too!


Today is all about the Velvet Pant! I wanted to style these Halogen paperbag waist pants a couple ways because they are SO comfortable. I love that the material is velvet which is so on trend, and the satin bow is flattering and SO holiday ready!

The first option on styling these pants is to pair with a holiday graphic tee which is fun for any evening out- and not to mention comfy. A graphic tee is a fun way of bringing your mood and personality through the outfit especially when it might have a little cheeky saying- but in this case there some really fun holiday graphics at a great price that are fun! I love the little touch of leopard in the shoes and with the coat too!

The second option on how to style the velvet pants is with a mood lifting sequin top! With the sequin top- when I put this on I was like “whoa”, I kinda always feel that way about sequin actually, when I have it on, I wonder why I don’t wear it more often! I LOVE the cap sleeve top— this style sleeve is one of my favorite cuts, covers your shoulder but also it is still party ready. This particular top has a couple colorways, so pick one that suits you – I love it paired with the velvet pants! NYE here you come!

Kids Easy Holiday Style

I used to stress out big time thinking about what the boys should wear at holiday time from church, school events and even just family get togethers! Should they match? Should they dress up? Every time I bought them something that was somewhat dressy, they really didn’t want to wear it, so of course I end up wasting my money. Such a bummer.

I have started taking a MUCH more relaxed perspective on things lately and over the past few holidays– I don’t put pressure on them to need to do anything. I will tell you what I have been doing that really helps, is in talking about Christmas for example- I ask their opinion on what they want to wear, and I help make suggestions based on that! Both Hayden and Presley are MUCH happier in the end and everyone wins!

They are taking over the blog today with Walmart with their own pics for what to wear for any holiday gathering! (and do you know how exctied they were when I told them Gracie could be in their pics?) Like Crazy Excited! Walmart has a great selection of Kids Clothes that are on trend and 100% affordable since they seem to be growing like WEEDS! 🙂

The looks that we have on in this post is likely just a go- to outfit for them, appropriate for anything we have going on for the next couple weeks. On top of that, they will be HAPPY to be comfortable and that is always a WIN in my book! 🙂 I linked the looks below in case you are also struggling on how to outfit the kids! I thought it might be helpful as well to include some sweet picks for the girls too– we all need to be comfy!

So hopefully that helps you de-stress (a tiny bit anyway) to have at least one thing to not worry about! Now where to we move that dang elf?!

|Bra Favorites|

There’s a few favorite bras that I love the red one that I have on here is the Embraceable Bralette- its made of the softest stretchy material has removeable cups. It’s a really great style to wear for relaxation time at home even if your preference is no underwire! I wear a normal size L for reference.

Another one of my favorite bras is the Enbliss Full Coverage bra. I love it for the full coverage, soft material and keeps me where I want to be if ya know what I mean. LOL There is also a wireless option that I am linking as well in case that is your preference! These run TTS in the band but I go up one cup size for reference.
