Florals & Stripes

May 26, 2015 by jessica 17 Comments

Outfit05262015-7

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.

[dropcap custom_class=”normal”]T[/dropcap]his shirt makes me ridiculously happy and it’s not just because it matches my favorite pin. Paired with a short shift dress, it has the carefree ’60s vibe I’m fond of. And, what better way to embrace its playful side than at a nearby playground? Thankfully no children were around because one trip down the slide made me realize how short my skirt was and how cold plastic playground equipment could be!

Currently Coveting

There’s one more month of summer. And it’s just enough time to enjoy a new pair of sunglasses. Quirky frames preferred.

I relied on a single pair of cheap sunglasses for years: $20 oversize aviators from Shopko. When those finally succumbed to the pressure of being kept in the car and tossed in my tote bag, I invested in a “nice” pair … and then another. Given how dramatically shades can change the look of an outfit, it’s much more fun to have a small wardrobe of options to choose from. 

Top Row: Jessica Simpson ($45); Ray-Ban ($145); Kate Spade ($128)

Middle Row: KBL ($160); Michael Kors ($99); Prada ($225)

Bottom Row: Elizabeth & James ($185); Diane von Furstenberg ($150); Jeepers Peepers ($29.09)

Enter to win a pair of sunglasses from Fantas-Eyes!

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

Snapshots from the past week: • Spent quality t Snapshots from the past week:

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

(The lamp and circle pillow were gifted. I purchased the other items.)

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
