Twirling into Fall {What I’m Wearing Wednesday}

Dress / Purse / Shoes (Old but Similar) / Earrings

Fall is a tricky time to shop for me. I love the cooler weather and all things pumpkin spice, but I am not a huge fan of khaki and muted colors. I tried to go shopping for some sweaters last week and every store I went into was filled with the typical fall leaf shades. I love these colors on everyone else, but for me, I am always looking for bright pink, kelly green and bright yellow items. In Florida, it is still in the 90’s and even though the evening breeze is starting to pick up, it is still too hot for most fall pieces.

Mommy Monday {Packing Tips with My Favorite Crab & Cleek Tote}

Happy Monday, friends! I can not believe it is already October! If you are anything like me, October starts the busiest time of the year. With holidays and cooler weather, we have tons of weekend getaways planned and it will be Christmas before we know it! With a new month also comes new and exciting things for Mikaela J. I am SO excited to start participating in a Mommy Monday series with some other great mommy and style bloggers. Each month we will share some of our favorite products with you. This month I am thrilled to share one of my absolute favorite totes. This Crab & Cleek tote was my go-to all summer long and I am excited to start using it as my carry on for all of my trips this fall. It is the perfect size and can double as my diaper bag when we are out and about.

A Day at Disney with Jiobit

Well, summer is over and for my kiddos, that means one thing…Disney World! We are annual pass holders and my kids literally count down the days until our blackout dates are lifted so we can return to the happiest place on earth. With us living in Orlando, it was a no-brainer to purchase annual passes and we spend most of our open weekends spinning, flying and eating our way through the Disney parks.

As the summer winds down and the weather starts to cool off, one of my favorite things to do as a family is to spend more time outdoors. Summers in Florida can be pretty brutal but the fall and winter are perfect for outdoor dinners, making s’mores around the fire pit and family walks around the neighborhood. Not only do my kids love the cooler fall weather, but our favorite furry family member, Chloe, does too!

Chloe came into our lives about 11 years ago when Peter had his first dog at the vet and the appointment ahead of him was a litter of seven Basset Hound pups getting their first round of vaccinations. He knew immediately that one of those long-eared, large-pawed puppies was coming home with us. Our lives haven’t been the same since.

Blue on Blue {What I’m Wearing Wednesday}

It must be pretty obvious by now that in addition to pink, blue is one of my all-time favorite colors to have in my wardrobe. I knew immediately when I saw this jumpsuit (that is under $25) that I had to have it! It it so cute and I loved pairing it with the blue heels and blue earrings for last week’s date night.
