CASUAL WHITE TUNIC & A BUCKET BAG

Thursday, August 4, 2016





Summer is in full swing and can I just say that I LOVEEEE summer! Say hello to all of my favorite summer style pieces. I'm a busy momma but I like to snazz things up a bit when going on casual outings. It feels good to be put together even if it's just to run to the store or go to the beach or park with the boys. I love this white tunic! It's so airy and comfy and the lovely details make me look just a little extra done up. This little bucket bag is now my fave. As everyone is potty trained and I don't have to tote around diapers she's perfect for caring my wallet and keys...not to mention the tassel detailing is so cute and I got her from Nordstrom for just $18! It's on clearance now! I got these denim capris from Costco and they are so faithful! I love my lucky summer sandals that I’ve worn literally to death this summer! LOL A red lip automatically makes you look a bit more put together on the days that the kiddos are going crazy and you just want to feel a bit more centered and feminine.



Lately I've been focused more on the being a kind mom to my boys. John Mayer's song "Daughters" remain one of my favorites! I know…it’s ironic because I only have sons...ha-ha. It is literally one of the best artistic pieces on parenting that I've ever heard! The line, "Oh, you see that skin? It's the same she's been standing in" is so eye opening to me. When our children come to us we somehow think of them as another species...and not merely little adults. Every word I say, counsel I give and minute I spend with them shapes who they will believe themselves to be. The essence of who they are from birth to adulthood never changes. We don't get to go back and redo our childhoods--they shape who we become. I wrote that line down so that each time I'm tempted to be inpatient or short I'll remember that when they leave our home they are leaving in the same skin they came in and they will take everything we've said and done with them.
