August 16, 2024
My first favorite today has to be this guy. It's Brian's birthday tomorrow and we're celebrating by having friends over tonight. I have the Kona Ice Truck coming as a surprise! Tomorrow we're going out as a family for hibachi. 
It's no secret that I'm a huge New Kids on the Block fan. They played at Jones Beach and I had VIP tickets. Getting to experience their show (again) with my some of my oldest and dearest friends was one of my favorites of the summer! 
I have more time in the summer to do some small home project sand redecorating. I freshened up our lounge with some new pillows and a new coffee table from Walmart. I had been eying the table for awhile and it was out of stock, and one day I checked and it was back! It says it is out of stock now, but if you're interested check back now and then. 
Linen Throw Pillows from Amazon: 
One of the projects I did this summer was an update of our fireplace. I replaced the mantle with a more rustic one from Urbandi. We lowered the mantle so we had room for a bigger television and had shiplap installed. 
This is what it looked like before:
My favorite pool and beach bag is my Bogg Bag. I have the large tote and it's perfect for lugging towels and sunscreen. The best part is that it has hold to let the sand out, and it's rubber so I can wash it with the house. There are lots of styles and colors online and they also have them at Dick's Sporting Good. This bag also makes a great gift!
I'm heading back to Charleston on Sunday and wanted something new to wear, but didn't want to spend a lot of money. I picked up these two dresses at Francesca's for 70 percent off. 
Last week Tory Burch had their private sale and I picked up these shoes for the fall. Teachers need comfy shoes!

That's all. If you made it this far, thanks for reading.

                                   It has been a BUSY but fun couple of weeks around here. Today is my last day of work for awhile and I'm hoping to enjoy some down time as we head into August. I have lots of favorites to share this Friday start with... 1. ENGLISH FACTORY DRESSES: My friend has this dress and it's adorable on her. I had my eye on it for awhile and pulled the trigger when it went sale. I can't wait to wear it this weekend! Sunni Color Block Dress 2. BASEBALL LIFESTYLE : My son Jack is very into this Baseball Lifestyle 101 brand. It's all the rage with the baseball players. He typically wears hand me downs so I treated him to these shorts in blue and pink and the short sleeve hoodie. Baseball Shorts 3. CHERRIES: My obsession with cherries continues. I picked up this straw bag at a local boutique, a cute tank at Old Navy, and some fun items at Five Below.  Old Navy Cherry Tank ...

August 22, 2025 1. GIRL TIME: I spent a few days in the Hamptons with my mom this week. Brian and the kids stayed home since sports have already kicked off. Even though Mom lives with us now, we haven’t had much one-on-one time, so it was really nice to catch up. My friend Carrie was also out there solo, so we squeezed in lots of shopping! Such a nice little break before the craziness starts next week. 2. OOFOS flip flops: One of my neighbors has these and swears by them. I bought them in black and have to admit, they are VERY comfortable. I expect to be wearing these to lost of games in the fall.  Oofos Original Sandal 3. NEW RUGS: Carrie and I were both on the hunt for rugs and I ended up finding this beautiful blue one at HomeSense. The navy, red, and white rug is from Pottery Barn, and I scored it for an amazing deal on Facebook Marketplace! 3. TUCKERNUCK SAMPLE SALE: The semi-annual Tuckernuck sample sale is live and it's sooooo good. There were so many pieces I loved but I...

October 24, 2025 1. GIRL TIME: My college bestie and I took our daughters to the Shawn Mendez concert at Forest Hill Stadium. It was a beautiful night for an outdoor concert and we had a blast! I love that we have daughters the same age and they get along so well.  2. LULUS: Lulus is my go-to spot for dresses. They always have such a great selection at reasonable prices. I usually order a few different styles and sizes to try on, then just keep my favorites. I have two events coming up in November and December, and these two dresses are definite keepers! Loira Midi Dress Celebration Time Navy Dress 3. LOFT: I had some time to kill before the dentist so I popped into Loft. I left with this denim dress...the material is a nice heavier weight and I think it will be super cute with boots. I also got 3 sweaters. Everything is on sale and they offer and additional teacher discount.  Denim Dress Fringe Sweater Floral Sweater Spacedye Sweater 4. SCHOOL PICTURES : We just got our sc...
