We finally picked out our first piece of art for our new home: Sombras by Lulaloo. It’s moodier than I had planned on, but Dave put the kibosh on adding more tropical-inspired artwork to our ever-growing collection of beach prints. I may have grumbled at our first design compromise for the new house, but it really is a gorgeous, sophisticated piece that will serve as the focal point of the room — especially since we’re going big with the 44-inch square print! I can’t wait to see it in person. Elsewhere in the house, we’ll do a gallery wall where I’d like to add this sweet print by Aspacia Kusulas.

We’re back from our Memorial Day road trip to Cincinnati! Neither one of us had been to Ohio before, which made the six and a half hour trip to the city a no brainer for the long weekend. We spent most of our time exploring neighborhoods, stopping in boutiques, and trying bars and restaurants. I’ll share a recap of our most notable stops next week. Until then, I wanted to highlight this dress. It was undoubtedly my favorite piece on the trip thanks to its easy silhouette. I came around to the slight high-low hem after realizing that it gave me just the right amount of extra coverage when I sat down! For a peek at the other items I packed, visit Julie Leah’s blog here.
Dress: ASTR (only $64)

As much as I appreciate the boost of confidence from a pair of heels, I’m a flats girl through and through. I love the versatility of flats, the mobility of flats, and the Audrey Hepburn je ne sais quoi of flats. I think we can all agree that this pair from Sam Edelman has that ladylike-meets-irreverent vibe down.
I purchased them after my love affair with the Tory Burch wedges fizzled and, like all tales starring a pair of shoes, there was a happy ending. The Sam Edelman flats are true to size and the nude-colored ankle strap doesn’t visually cut me off like the black strap did on the Tory pair. Now I just “need” these bow-topped mint flats and a palm-printed pair to make my spring shoe wardrobe complete.
Love graphic patterns with a touch of neon? Get your fix with this beach towel (a steal at $36) or splurge on a new pair of sandals ($170).
