ASOS Broderie Sundress with Strappy Back

Memorial Day (and, ahem, my birthday weekend) marks the unofficial start of summer. It often feels as if I’m constantly counting down to my favorite season so that I can break out my arsenal of summer dresses. But can you really fault me for that? Lightweight dresses are the perfect canvas for layering jewelry like these rings from www.MoonstoneShop.com. I’ve been a fan of moonstone for as long as I can remember, but it was solidified when I visited Moonstone Beach in California years ago and spent well over an hour sifting through stones on the beach to find the iridescent beauties. I had intended to have the stones I found polished and set in a ring, but let’s be honest, going straight to the source for genuine moonstone jewelry is so much easier! The shop carries an array of petite rings that are perfect for layering a few statement-making pieces to sprinkle into your collection. You can also find moonstone earrings, pendants, and bracelets.

White Tunic Sweater & Denim Shorts :: Bedknobs & Baubles

I’ve had this outfit on repeat lately. It’s such an easy ensemble to slip on and feel pulled together without sacrificing comfort, and the tunic sweater is the perfect spring-to-summer transitional piece when the weather just isn’t warm enough for a flimsy top. (It also looks cute with cropped pants for the office.) I bought this one late last summer from J.Crew, but LOFT has a few alternatives that I like even more: this one comes in lavender and heather grey, this one has cute ties at the sides and comes in tomato and gold, and I’m all about the variegated turquoise stripes in this one.

My Shopbop Sale Find

April 14, 2017 by jessica 2 Comments

Soludos Knotted Slide Sandals

Oh, did you happen to hear that there’s a Shopbop sale happening right now? 😉 Of course you did, given that everyone is talking about it this week. I didn’t want to succumb to the pressure to highlight the same sale and the same items as everyone else, but then I placed my own purchase for these sandals and I couldn’t let the opportunity for you to score them on sale go unannounced. I had them pinned to my secret “stuff I’ll probably buy in the future” Pinterest board for a few weeks and figured I’d probably buy them eventually, so why not take advantage of the discount? I’m in love, you guys! The leather is so soft that they feel like slippers! (Admittedly, the leather is a little squeaky right now, but I’m going to hit it with some leather conditioner later today ease some of the friction.)

Soludos, how do you manage to make such comfortable summer shoes?!

And, of course, that got me revisiting the sale this morning to find other items I would have purchased had I not been on the hunt for a house. (Sidebar: we put an offer on a house earlier this week — over the listing price, again — and lost out on it. I’m still heartbroken.) Here’s what captured my fancy:

  • These blue and white beaded earrings that I’ve waxed poetic about before.
  • A romper with a fresh citrus print.
  • This woven bag for the confetti-inspired handle alone.
  • The bold irises printed on this flirty dress.
  • A fun iPhone case for summer.

A small moment of peace from the past weekend. I A small moment of peace from the past weekend.

I feel like I’ve been doomscrolling since the news broke of SCOTUS’ decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. My emotions run the gamut from sadness to frustration to unadulterated rage. I’m deeply disgusted by conservatives and evangelicals, but especially by liberals who supported Bernie Sanders and refused to vote for Hillary Clinton at such a crucial moment in our history. Did you know that 12% of Sanders’ primary election supporters voted for Trump in the general election? In Wisconsin alone, 51,000 of them voted for Trump — a state Trump would win by just 22,000 votes. 

Your vote matters. It matters in national elections, statewide elections, and local elections. It’s crucial that Democrats organize as strategically as conservatives did and restore reproductive rights. 

In the meantime, donate your time, talent, or treasure to help those facing an unwanted pregnancy. @thecut has a great list on their site with organizations to support in states likely to prohibit abortion. I’ve donated to @plannedparenthoodwi.
Reveal day is finally here! It’s been a long pro Reveal day is finally here! It’s been a long process that started back in April 2020 with a kitchen ceiling leak that was attributed to water leaking from our tub faucet and working its way through the floor and into the kitchen. Our bathroom was never anything to look at (before photos on the feed), but the leak really accelerated our plans for a full bathroom renovation when timelines — and budgets — allowed. It feels a bit surreal to have it done and I don’t think I’ll ever stop admiring it whenever I walk past!

Head to the blog today to read about two headaches that came at the tail end of our main bathroom remodel.

I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bat I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bathroom and thinking how lucky we are that we were able to do this! It wasn’t always easy to navigate the stressful moments, but the end result is worth it. I feel like I’m at a luxury hotel every time I shower! (And it sure beats showering with the spiders in our [basically unfinished] basement bathroom. It was like camping in our own home for the past six weeks — and I very much hate camping!)

More photos to come!

The rest of the shower tile will be installed on Monday and then they’ll starting laying the floor tile. I can’t wait!
