As someone who spends most of everyday at home the urge to pull the couch potato look is strong. However, I have found that I am more productive, energized and just all around happier if I make an effort to put myself together everyday! <br />

Friday night I hung out with my siblings and my sisters and I applied Jamberries to our nails. I'm kind of new to this whole idea and I have to admit-I kind of love them!</div>

I've been wearing "Luna" and my nails look so nice...I may or may not have ordered a whole slew of wraps to try. Any other nail wrap addicts out there? I might have a problem...;) </div>

Saturday we went to a surprise birthday party at an arcade! I love this outfit but considering that I was flying solo with all 3 kids? Tennis shoes might have been a better choice! It really is hard to go out in a hectic public place like that with a 7, 3 and 1 year old! Thank goodness several friends were there to help wrangle my kids;) </div>

Monday was Memorial Day! Thank you to all those who have served in our military and fought for freedom. We celebrated by playing halo with several of our veteran friends-again because I'm good at adulting. The weather was especially crazy as well...several tornado and flash flood warnings and for a little while there it was looking pretty scary. Thankfully the storms died down and we were still able to make it home. My husbands car did get some water damage. It was parked on the street and the passenger side was submerged :( nothing really to complain about when we watch all the reports of those who have lost so much. Our prayers are with the families who are still searching for loved ones.<br />
<br />
Thank you for reading!<br />

Lets talk a little summer wedding fashion!<br />
<br />
<br />
Semi Formal:<br />
Think beach or backyard wedding. Often less formal and more intimate. As a mom, this is also the most practical of the 3 options simply because its easy to bend down to take care of little ones in long dresses and flat shoes are obviously easier to maneuver.<br />
I think its important to note the fabric of the dress you choose. A cotton maxi dress might not be appropriate where a silky fabric or a high quality jersey would. I love this option from forever 21! <br />

Formal:<br />
This is my favorite of the 3 and I feel it would be perfect for an evening summer wedding. An A-line mid length skirt should be a closet staple! Pair this lightweight silk option with a breezy tank and dress it up with some classic wedges. If the weather is especially hot I love the idea of a loose ponytail to keep your hair off your neck.<br />

Formal:<br />

Here is a great opportunity to pull out my alternative to the little black dress! Somewhat conservative with the high neckline but still modern and fun with the flattering fit and bright color. In this case I feel less is more. A pair of nude pumps and some interesting earrings and you're ready to go.<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last week's weather proved rainy and wet with air was so humid and thick you could choke on it! I'm ignoring the awful weather, especially since another muggy week looms ahead</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and instead looking forward to 30 days of celebrating my 30th birthday!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
(30 days for 30 years seems reasonable, right?!) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I wanted to wear a lot of springy, light outfits since we're in the middle of May </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but instead its looking a little like fall around here... </div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Torrential downpours couldn't keep us at home! We visited one of my sisters and I avoided all my responsibilities at home. (birthday month remember? I'm allowed) </div>

This is my actual birthday outfit! The sun decided to shine and some friends treated me to dinner! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Afterward we headed back home to enjoy some </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
after dinner wine and dessert once the kids were in bed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Such a good way to start my 30th year! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Michael took a few days off so we took the kids to my moms, went out to lunch </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and saw the newest Avengers movie! Really enjoyed it-even though it was another rainy day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My hair was not loving the humidity but luckily a friend sent this beautiful headband </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
as a birthday gift. I've been loving <a href="http://scrapsandthistles.blogspot.com/2013/05/easy-updo.html" target="_blank">this hairstyle</a> lately </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and the waves it leaves when you take it down! Its like 2 hairstyles in one. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This dress is crazy, I know. On Saturday we went to a Luau themed party, hence the in your face print!. I haven't worn this dress since before Ben was born since its somewhat form fitting and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wasn't quite confident enough to wear something so unforgiving but I have been faithfully doing the</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECxYJcnvyMw" target="_blank"> 7 minute workout</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and its been just enough to help tone and lose the last couple pounds! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ben was a giant baby (9lbs 10oz) and I definitely gained more during his pregnancy</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
so its taken a little longer to work it off.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another date day! I am in love with my new wedges from Target even though they make me ridiculously tall. For our date, Michael and I went to one of those paint and wine classes</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
and it was so much fun. We used a Groupon so it was rather affordable as well and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
we have plans to go again very soon! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
That brings us to the end of WIWW! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoyed reading and maybe found some inspiration to spruce up your daily outfits! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I personally love the motivation to try a little harder every week! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Blogging is quite an investment when it comes to the amount of time required. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To generate interesting, engaging content while still staying genuine is tough.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div>
I love the blogging community as a whole but in particular I admire these bloggers,</div>
<div>
their dedication and the 'online living rooms' they have created.</div>
<div>
Without further ado:<br />

This blog is an aesthetic dream. Emily's posts are full of beautiful images and she offers a ton of tutorials and freebies to her readers!

Natalia seems like the type of girl with whom I would be friends in real life. She is so personable and charming and down to earth! Her blog is full of all things beauty plus a little bit about her life as an expat in France. She posts cute, but practical fashion as a mom of two, product reviews and load of other tips and tricks. Her writing style is quite spunky as well and more often than not laugh out loud funny!<br />

I love Lindsey's fashion and design sense! They have an adorable home but are in the process of selling it and moving so I'm looking forward to more design posts! Lindsey also hosts the WIWW link party that motivated me to start those posts in the first place. If you're feeling uninspired about your wardrobe just pop over there on a Wednesday!</div>

Lauren has the cutest little girl Scarlett, whose super curly hair reminds me of my Gwen, which is what drew me to her blog in the first place. What kept me there was Lauren's sweet spirit and earnest writing style. She is currently expecting her 2nd baby, a little boy and I'm excited to watch their family grow and to see how Lauren dresses her little man since Scarlett is quite the little fashion maven!<br />

Alison is just inspiring. She hosts really fun fashion challenges, has accessible, gorgeous, personal style and is beautiful to boot!

I'm into not looking awful and because my job is so very demanding with little opportunity for down or "me" time I feel that taking a moment every morning to prepare for the day is vital to success...at least it is for me! The days that I'm serving lunch in my pajamas never seem as productive or peaceful as those when I'm put together and ready to take care of business!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Its been so long since I've done this that I felt a little awkward and<br />
some of these are a little blurry so bear with me!<br />
I'm excited to challenge myself to share easy, versatile, practical looks for your day to day!</div>

Obviously by this time I remembered how to get a clear shot ;) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tuesday I hosted a balm making party using essential oils! We made sunscreen, lime vanilla lip balm (amazing) and a bug balm to keep the bugs away!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I really like the way this top has flowy sleeves but with the shoulders exposed you don't lose all your shape! I do wish it were a little longer...I am simply not into the crop top trend. My torso is way too long and I'm probably way too old! Luckily Forever 21 has a camisole in every color for less than $3 so that will be my solution until everyone realizes how unflattering crop tops are. Sorry. They are. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway-I tried something new with my makeup too! Usually I just wear something moisture rich and sheer on my lips but I received this beautiful red shade for my birthday and I did feel quite glamorous. Maybe I'll try red lips more often! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully you are inspired to try something new next week too!<br />
Even if its just wearing a fancy lip color remember to take a moment to breathe<br />
before diving back into your daily grind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Also if you host a fashion link party I'd love to join-leave a link in the comments!<br />

Recently, I had the pleasure of hosting my very good friend's daughter's 1st birthday! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think the color palette she chose is just absolutely beautiful and the set up was relatively simple so I thought I'd share in case you were looking for some color inspiration for an upcoming event!</div>

We chose a soft pink, along with cream, gold and a light teal blue for some contrast.,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Adding a burlap runner and a bunting strung on twine lent just the right amount of texture to the soft feminine vibe. </div>

I love using these tissue paper flowers to decorate for parties.<br />
They can be made rather large so they pack a visual punch, are extremely versatile as<br />
you can make them in absolutely any color, and the best part?<br />
<i><u>They are so inexpensive to make! </u></i><br />

We had very specific colors in mind so we were pretty happy to find them<br />
(and the gold dotted party hats) at target. <br />
There are a million tutorials for how to create these flowers,<br />
but here is a quick overview while you're here.<br />
<br />
First, determine what size flower you'll be making<br />

After 7 years of parenting girls its hard not to notice a difference! He climbs, which is something new for us. I found him standing on my dining room table this morning actually. He was quite pleased with himself too...not cool...He also lounges around on the floor which is another unexpected difference. This, of course may not necessarily be a 'boy' thing, but just a Ben thing. To walk in and find your 1 yr old laying on the floor "reading" a book is kind of at the top of the cute scale. </div>

(this is right after we chopped off over a foot of her beautiful hair!)<br />
<br />
She is also at the age where she wants to have long meaningful conversations. She tends to be a deep thinker and is very emotive...empathy is a strong suit for sure and I love watching her talk because its like looking in a mirror. She moves almost exactly like me... that sounds super narcissistic but that's not how I mean it!</div>

As she says, "I'm Ivy cause I'm Ivy!" There really isn't any other way to put it! Bold and strong willed and all that jazz...apparently another mirror situation because I'm told she is just like 3 yr old Harmony. (Sorry Mom!) What my sweet Pie requires in...we'll say 'intentional' parenting;) she makes up for with her effervescent personality and sweet spirit. She is honestly just a delightful little person!</div>

I have no excuses...because this is just a blog guys. I've been wanting to start it up again mostly for the motivation taking pictures of something provided! I am curious though, what do YOU like to read about? I feel the need to simplify the process to align with my current busy lifestyle (oh I had a baby btw) so I'm thinking 2 posts a week tops...quality over quantity if you will. I'm curious what you would like to see! I made a poll on my Facebook page. Oh I should probably check to see if my links still work...the back end of blogging is all high tech and complicated...I'll leave a link just in case my whole poor blog is dead...<br />

I'm due Early march and we are so excited to add to our family:) </div>

Gwen is pretty excited too and it is seriously the cutest thing to overhear her talking to Ivy about it. </div>

I haven't been feeling horrible but I have had a little more nausea than usual-as long as I keep a steady stream of food coming I'm good! haha;) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is another reason Its been a little quiet around here too! I usually write my posts early in the AM and instead I've been...eating...yeah...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I've been missing this creative outlet though so I hope to be back to a regular schedule soon! Especially since I'll need the motivation to get creative fitting my wardrobe around a growing belly and nothing is more motivating to me than this fabulous community!</div>

<div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;">
Lately, I've been looking back thorough my outfit posts and taking note of what pieces get the most use in my wardrobe. Because of the summer heat, shorts are an obvious repeat! I especially love the casual vibe a good pair of jean cut offs gives. </div>
<div style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;">
Over at Real Girl Glam they are doing another Real Girl challenge; styling denim cutoffs! I thought I'd post a few of my favorite ways to wear them</div>

<div style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;">
Today, for What I Wore Wednesday we're exploring the Maxi Skirt trend in the 2nd installment of the mixology series! (see the 1st one <a href="http://getyourprettyon.com/harmony-gets-her-pretty-on/" target="_blank">here</a>) If you've been around for awhile you know I have quite the collection of maxi skirts. I just love how flowey and feminine they are but I also love how versatile they can be! Just by changing up the styling you can give them a classic look, or a rocker vibe or the typical bohemian flair that is almost synonymous with the style. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV3elO3P7IXRsVMgyDf0viimLIHJ5aXdkexprsayRycXc5BX2HGvv0lP0_6ugrlg7yqLoGD-f83Kdn7qfC-wli3KdperHXIfXrV_HQSGoP2nREvR8pDJhLkyxkEqRvuZ7OMyPPQ-LdXHU/s1600/maxi2.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="540" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiV3elO3P7IXRsVMgyDf0viimLIHJ5aXdkexprsayRycXc5BX2HGvv0lP0_6ugrlg7yqLoGD-f83Kdn7qfC-wli3KdperHXIfXrV_HQSGoP2nREvR8pDJhLkyxkEqRvuZ7OMyPPQ-LdXHU/s640/maxi2.jpg" width="640" /></a><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZSEoZylhssMBSZhP2Nf5SBNsxb2-0QAkq4lr1AWzgVVh3ZBLKMqXGZK_eSx04YZ9NbHNFhYERKZR_DgrJeT1TRoqoTd7VUKbMeETd5zW24puOYwELrQduvYMw3DIa6m_p62g7AGYyXs0/s640/maxi1.jpg" width="640" /> </div>

Another thing I love about Maxi's is how they can work for all seasons! These really are a closet staple in my opinion! As if my collection isn't big enough, here are a few more beautiful skirts I'd love to come live in my closet<br />

Are you into the maxi skirt trend? What is your favorite way to wear them?? Which one would you add to your closet!? Personally I'm loving those beautiful ombre designs...<br />

This week I'm participating in the 7x7 remix challenge with <a href="http://manouvellemode.com/" target="_blank">Ma Nouvelle Mode</a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The challenge is this: pick 7 pieces, including shoes, and make 7 outfits with them! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Accessories are unlimited. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here are my 7 picks<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir3m5COasGma9zfA8VRVlCcivOzoxQm_wloVOgpnI6m873394Gd0WR4jcnq2lOxZSw3RcEck0vm51medU3Bn9-p8mPjIwzyV0maD514m6wIzKPLnh8aJ98aWZo9o_pnrOtTqrG0TyoXng/s1600/7x79.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="604" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEir3m5COasGma9zfA8VRVlCcivOzoxQm_wloVOgpnI6m873394Gd0WR4jcnq2lOxZSw3RcEck0vm51medU3Bn9-p8mPjIwzyV0maD514m6wIzKPLnh8aJ98aWZo9o_pnrOtTqrG0TyoXng/s640/7x79.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Including shoes in the 7 really made this challenging! I almost chose 2 pairs but at the last minute switched them out for a pair of shorts and I'm glad I did. </div>

My husband was out of town for the last week so last Sunday we had a much needed date night. I love this color combo together and this is my new favorite belt! ($5 on clearance! Whoot!) I got tons of compliments on this outfit too which is always nice :) <br />

Yes that's a skirt. Yes I'm wearing it as a shirt. I love to use clothing in more ways than one and this skirt actually works quite well as a top! Paired with skinny jeans and wedges this could actually be a lot dressier! But I didn't include either of those in my 7 so I went casual instead ;) </div>

This is one of the reasons I love maxi skirts! This is the perfect breezy outfit for blazing hot Texas! It was super comfortable but still classy and the natural tones paired beautifully! I do recommend using a thick belt if you decide to remix your maxi to really define your waist! I tried this with a thinner belt and it looked a little blobby. Yes blobby is a technical fashion term. <br />

One challenge I didn't expect in creating these outfits, was fighting the urge to re-use the same jewelry! I love the way these bracelets work with the floral top but I really wanted to get out of my comfort zone and be creative! So this is the only outfit I put them with! <br />

This floral top turned out to be the piece I used the most but never in the same way! Its been tucked, tied, belted and left loose! I love the yellow belt against the army green too. Its a belt I hardly ever pull out but thanks to this challenge I'll be utilizing it more often! <br />
<br />
<br />
There you have my 7x7 challenge!! I have to say I LOVED participating! There are still outfit options too! I still could wear the purple dress alone, or the floral top with the shorts....<br />
<br />
Thanks to all the lovely bloggers hosting the challenge linky-lets do this again! <br />

I love summertime. I love easy summertime fashion too and that is what you're going to see a lot of in the next couple months! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I am in love with this top. Its just so different and screams summer. I cant wait to wear it loosely tucked into a maxi skirt with some wedges! The shorts were a pair of jeans that fit well on top but were too short so I cut them into shorts and threw them in the wash to fray them! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is something I threw on before heading to my sisters house and her pool! The shorts are another pair of too short pants chopped and washed. I just added a few accessories so I didn't feel too sloppy-especially since this was a day my hair and makeup got zero attention. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Which is why I'm wearing sunglasses ;) <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-VFTSeainwNwZucR5zuiJqrS1bLXfgmPocSxoveLjjRACEtPHH-6-M7cNnTmjwJ4Fjdy2cXn3CXCkEMo9bP5OG4xM2Lj11W9WWkIHztQ7HcqrZnnAuJGz4VVkwS7CGYQljRhO4gHxdaE/s1600/june5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="418" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-VFTSeainwNwZucR5zuiJqrS1bLXfgmPocSxoveLjjRACEtPHH-6-M7cNnTmjwJ4Fjdy2cXn3CXCkEMo9bP5OG4xM2Lj11W9WWkIHztQ7HcqrZnnAuJGz4VVkwS7CGYQljRhO4gHxdaE/s640/june5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is my favorite kind of summer style. Comfortable and classy all in one! I love the way the pointed tiers line up with the detail of the skirt. It has a very slimming effect even though they are both flowy loose fitting pieces! </div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you enjoyed this everyday fashion! Thanks for reading! </div>

AKA Living Room re-tour. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Recently construction on our remodel has slowed down and I've been feeling antsy </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
for some change in our home. Rearranging is a free way to bring new life to your space! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So that's what I did. You gotta mix it up every now and then! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
BEFORE:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We had the console and couch right when you walked in which created both an entry way of sorts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and a cozy living space but while it works well for us as a family, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
it does not work so well for company! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also host a small group once a week so we had to capitalize on floor space and seating. </div>

Moving the couch and console to the gallery wall really opened up the space. <img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizZ3_PMQyp2ZZUqDOZSfSinZDP7_rCZec3hBlt3EahAWauNyL4Ds8z7q635fculklgYt2E2sbHvgCzjAZY9s8YKRswwy3xyG09bDknittRDGNiTVWA6v1tIP5rAXLCcCQ3e76b2E0bsXU/s640/DSC_0011-001.JPG" width="428" /> </div>

Plus its a really fun place to decorate. I decided to lean the 2+2 art on the table and I love how it unifies the wall of art with the couch and table. </div>

Another great thing about this about this arrangement is the way these chairs </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
under these awkwardly-placed too-small-whatwerethecurrentownerthinking- windows</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
makes them seem a little less out of place! </div>

I also really like the TV at an angle and the fact that the furniture is not centered around it.</div>

It makes this space feel much more company friendly.</div>

One thing I really would love to add is a fiddle leaf fig tree in this guy </div>

the wall and fill the space. </div>

It's really amazing what something as simple as moving furniture around can do for your space<br /><div style="text-align: center;">
I hope I've inspired you to re-arrange if something just isn't working!! </div>

Any areas of your home just begging for a fresh look? </div>

I also tried this hairstyle again, more recently with my bangs to see if it still works and I think</div>

An added bonus to this hairstyle is if you sleep in it or leave it in all day, when you take it out you have soft , heat free curls! </div>

Yep. I apparently don't own a white tee shirt...But I really wanted to participate in this challenge so I paired it with this clingy maxi skirt and wedges to upgrade the tee from super casual to just a little bit dressy and belted it so my figure still appeared feminine ;) </div>

I stacked this bracelet with my new favorite accessory; the wrap watch,and this necklace/bracelet to give the outfit some color.

I love the way these pieces work together-and added bonus? SO comfortable. I think I'll add a light blazer and wear this out for our next date night! </div>

This week seems long somehow...it's funny how some weeks just fly by while others just drag on. Not that its been a bad week! I just feel like I have lots of time. It's probably the warmer weather and thoughts of a lazy summer. Maybe its not that I have more time, I'm just planning to do less haha! Ok! Lets see what I wore last week ;) <br />

This is what I wore Saturday to go get my haircut. To be honest I'm having a little haircut remorse especially looking at these pictures;-(oh well...it grows. After my haircut we spent the day in my in-laws pool while Michael worked on his project car. <br />

Monday we just hung out at home getting some house work done! I just love that wrap watch. It was a gift from Michael for my birthday and it is my new favorite accessory! be prepared to see it almost everyday;) <br />

Tuesday was another mellow day at home. I love the movement in this dress and how easy it is to wear. I feel like it stands alone well and doesn't need a lot of styling! My hair on the other hand...I forgot how high maintenance bangs are...<br />

I've missed doing these!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today I'm playing around with different looks for these lace shorts</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
The lace is obviously very soft and feminine in nature and I didn't want to stray too far from that. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think it's kind of fun to just embrace the whole romantic feel sometimes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Something important to note-</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're on the lookout for a pair of these shorts please; Make sure they're LONG enough! This is not the time for a daisy duke fit! Otherwise you run the risk of looking like you're just out and about in your underpants. Not a cute look. I personally think these shorts look best when they're a slightly longer and looser fit-not baggy-but skimming the skin. </div>

look #1 is polished and put together with out trying too hard.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm loving the olive green paired with the cream</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and the slight safari feel from both the cork wedges</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and the awesome bone/tooth necklace. </div>

look #2 is perfect weekend wear. Easy, comfortable and cute!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nothing is more feminine than a blush tone paired with lace. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This looks like mother earth to me...trendy mother earth with shaved legs and deodorant that is ;)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
look #3 is a bit more grounded than the other two in that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've paired the shorts with deeper tones and 'harder' looking pieces. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The tone of the shoes and accessories play up the feminine vibe of the shorts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and make for a pleasing juxtaposition of elements. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a good sightseeing type of outfit in that you could layer a fun colored tank </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
under the chambray and adjust to the weather. The shoes could be good for a lot of walking too if you just used some cushioned inserts and the bag is big enough to carry around traveling necessities without being a obnoxiously large. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Mothers Day is right around the corner and in case </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
you're drawing a blank on what to possibly get your mama</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
here are a few ideas for things that</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I myself as a Mom would love to receive! </div>

</div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love giving scarves as gifts. They always fit and there are so many</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
beautiful variations you're sure to find one that perfectly suits</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
whomever it is you're shopping for!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're in a time crunch<a href="http://www.target.com/#?lnk=icon_t_spc_1_0" target="_blank"> Target </a>has some really great options,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but if you still have time for online shopping I love<a href="http://www.ebay.com/" target="_blank"> ebay</a>! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Scarves are a great way to add some fun color to your wardrobe</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
or follow a pattern trend without a big investment. </div>
<br />
<div style="margin: 0 auto; width: 600px;">
<div style="position: relative;">
<a href="http://www.polyvore.com/mothers_day_gift_guide/set?.embedder=4441928&.svc=copypaste&id=81574997" target="_blank"><img alt="mothers day gift guide!" border="0" height="664" src="http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/AHW5HixZc0JWIqLLqvig/cid/81574997/id/9qwdtbnJQBKLEHx7MYQMbQ/size/c600x664.jpg" title="mothers day gift guide!" width="600" /></a></div>
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Instead of a floral arrangement, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
consider giving an assortment of succulents in a unique vase or planter! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Succulents are a low maintenance plant and they come in so many amazing varieties. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the way these plants look and if you're on a budget these are very affordable. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can usually find them at your local garden center</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
& <a href="http://www.westelm.com/" target="_blank">West Elm</a> has some great planter/terrariums </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
but they are way out of my price range</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so my cheaper alternative is a run-of-the mill terracotta pot and a can of spray paint! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You really can get creative </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
with the container you choose to use.</div>

I am in LOVE with these watch/bracelet combos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
They come in so many different colors and designs </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
and they are just a little bit different and unique. </div>

This is on my own wish list (hint hint). </div>

Its time for what I wore Wednesday! WIWW is a weekly feature designed to motivate me into putting a little extra effort into how I dress. As a stay at home mom I think it would be way too easy to stay in yoga pants all day and I am so much more productive-not to mention confident-when I get dressed in the morning!<br />

We are headed out the door here to a special Mommy-Daughter date! We had so much fun and yes we matched on purpose;) I'm also very proud of the felt flower clip I made-I've kind of been obsessed with playing with felt...</div>

I felt very grecian in this and I really like that hairstyle-its so so simple to do too and I didn't use any bobby pins! You just wrap sections of hair around the headband and then pull and tug until it looks right! It also leaves a very pretty wave in your hair so its a great 2-day heat-less hairstyle! Maybe a tutorial?</div>
