 Grecian Embroidered Dress // Tribal Soho Clutch // Collins Ave Gem Cuff // Fine & Fance Ring // Geo Cutout Bangle all from Charming Charlie // Zara Heels    Maybe it’s because I’m a bride-to-be — but this summer I can’t stop wearing white dresses. This breezy white sundress from Charming Charlie is versatile enough to wear […]

Dress, sandals, hat, bracelets all from Sears Happppy Friday!! What a rainy week it’s been. I can’t wait to soak up some sun this weekend! I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect summer to dress to use on a few upcoming trips — for a post-wedding brunch in a few weeks, for wine tasting […]

  My daily breakfast is a green smoothie — but lately I’ve been getting a little tired of having the same thing over and over again. Sometimes I have one of Austin’s protien bars and replace my lunch with a smoothie and I’ve begun to experiment with different flavors for summer. Read on for a […]

I’m no beauty guru – but I do love trying new products and switching up my routine with the change of seasons. What I love most about summer beauty is that for me it requires just a few essentials. A lightweight tinted moisturizer, sunless tanner, bronzer, mascara and a bold lip is all I need […]

It’s hard to believe we have a few days left of summer — though it’s finally starting to feel like fall where I live, a few weeks ago when it was still very warm out I hosted an “End of Summer” dinner party for some girl friends. My talented friend Natalie Franke photographed the evening […]

  This pesto (gluten free) pasta dish is ideal for when you have company over — and during the dog days of summer when nothing sounds less appealing than being in a hot kitchen. It’s also pretty good to serve at the beach–I made it for my family earlier this week. It’s easy to make […]

Gifted T.J. Maxx dress + earrings, Target heels.  A few weeks ago T.J. Maxx asked if I’d like to style up a look inspired by Max Style Scout, Helena’s summer trends video. Duh! I love T.J. Maxx and jumped at the opportunity. Lately I’ve been buying more stuff for my home at the retailer than […]

It’s safe to say that I love summer weddings. Around us, they are typically on the water and I find it really easy to come up with an outfit that’s equal parts stylish and comfortable this time of year. It get’s a little trickier when the temps drop and tights are involved if you ask […]

Image credits 1, 2, 3. Happy Friday!! I’m heading out to the farmer’s market soon, followed by a work session at the local coffee shop. Tonight my sister and I are going to happy hour at Long Meadow Ranch — and I’m so excited!!  Tomorrow Glitter Guide is hosting a fun event at Calypso St. […]
