Father’s Day Gift Guide

Right before any major gift-exchanging holiday I always like to browse all the fun gift guides that bloggers put together. They always seem to come up with a bunch of fun, unique gifts I had never thought of and it always inspires me when I’m stumped for a gift idea. I had quite a fewContinue reading “Father’s Day Gift Guide”

Summer Nails

I feel like summer is the perfect time to have brightly painted nails, agree? It’s also a more casual time where you can experiment with interesting and new colors that maybe aren’t your normal go-to shades. Here are my current favorite summer nail colors, let me know if you try any! 1. Ok, I amContinue reading “Summer Nails”

What to Wear – Banana Republic Milly Collection

Have you checked out the new Banana Republic Milly Collection? I went on Thursday night, there was a small reception at the Banana Republic in Copley Square where they provided a little snack and beverage as you shopped. I also had the 25% off coupon for Milly items – score! Overall I liked the collection,Continue reading “What to Wear – Banana Republic Milly Collection”

Couple Things…

I wore my any season skirt this week with a cute nautical anchor top. Mint green, mustached Fiat – cutest car ever! Did I tell you the mustache was made with actual hair? Strawberries are officially in season! I think we’ll be making these strawberry shortcake cookies soon…. Over the weekend – watching morning cartoons whileContinue reading “Couple Things…”

But then I was perusing the internet and found these amazing, lightweight jeans and I think I spoke too soon! I love the pattern of these pants that from afar look like they might be a blueContinue reading “What to Wear – Summer Denim”

We celebrated the sun with a little trip to Brenton Point Park in Newport, RI – the best kite park around, according to me and probably quiteContinue reading “Kite Park”

Pork Carnitas Tacos

But lately we’ve been making more traditional tacos because my husband loves meats cooked low and slow and/or braised and I amContinue reading “Pork Carnitas Tacos”

Happy Memorial Day!

I hope your unofficial start to summer today is great – even if the weather is more like rainy spring, not sunny summer. I’ll still be wearing this! And we made our basic cole slaw this weekend, the perfect summer cookout food, only this time we used a bag of shredded broccoli and carrots weContinue reading “Happy Memorial Day!”

Couple Things…

Z loves her pompom tank, but I am not sure how long those pompoms will actually stay attached. D’oh. We have 2 really nice, large rhododendron plants in our yard and they suddenly bloomed earlier this week! We went to a 30th birthday party Saturday night where the drinks were strrrrrong. We decided GeorgetownContinue reading “Couple Things…”

Delicate Bracelets

I have been really into delicate bracelets lately. I think they are just great for layering all together and you can add something chunky to your wrist to wear with them as well. You’ve seen what delicate bracelets I wear as my daily bracelets that are my “base” so to speak, but here are someContinue reading “Delicate Bracelets”
