A Day Of Fun a.k.a. What Were We Thinking

Last week we ventured for a day out. Starting with a farmer's market in the morning and ending the day with bike rides at my mom's house. It was quite the day.

I know that from pictures it seems that everything is perfect, but it wasn't. Kids were hot and cranky - they didn't listen to a word I said. The baby needed to be changed. I was dying from heat (who wears all denim outfit when it's 80 out?) and frustrated. There were a lot of groceries that didn't fit anywhere. I was ready throw in the towel and my mom reminded me to laugh and smile. It was comical - us trying to take pictures, baby crying, kids throwing a fit and me yelling at them to smile. Ha! Life isn't perfect, so don't be fooled by the little snippets of time that seem like they are. Most of the time there is a lot of non-perfection going on behind the scenes!.

Red Midi Skirt

skirt: Forever 21 (similar here, love this one)
top: TJMaxx (similar under $35)
clutch: DIY (similar on sale under $30)
pumps: J.Crew (similar here, also love these)
glasses: Karen Walker via Ditto c/o
watch: Fossil (on sale under $90)

There is no doubt, red is my favorite color this season. Another favorite thing of mine is to scour gorgeous clothes for fraction of the cost. I found this skirt during my recent thrift store shopping spree and couldn't believe my eyes that I found exactly what I was looking for. I love the ease of movement and the countless ways I can style it (also how gorgeous is this one?).Also I'm loving the bow striped pumps (unfortunately they sold out) in this outfit. Can't stop thinking of more ways to wear them. Are you into mdi skirts or shy away from their particular styling? Thank you for stopping by!

The Perfect LBD

dress: J.Crew (on sale!)
bag: Tory Burch (similar new style)
pumps: Choies c/o
necklace: J,Crew old (similar)
glasses: Choies c/o

When it comes to a perfect little black dress, you can never have to many (yes, my husband will argue otherwise ha!). After inspecting my closet, I only have two LBDs and that's just wrong. Honestly, I already wore this dress multiple times and love how it looks dressed up or down. The ease of styling and many occasions I can wear it to, makes this a keeper in my book. I also love this one (and drooling over this one!). Do you make LBDs a part of your closet? Or just haven't found a perfect one yet? Check out below for some similar styles!
