I usually have 5.5. minutes to find a jacket and some shoes and jet out of the house. I usually am sporting something like this, an off the shoulder top, jacket for chilly nights and mornings and flats!

Last week, we visited the Pasadena Library and it was simply stunning. We didn’t have long to explore, but we were able to peruse the wood paneled reading rooms, awesome kid space, and old fireplaces, so much charm. I can’t wait to take Reid back there! Also, the outdoor espresso bar is a cute little destination that’s quiet and somewhat private. Definitely worth a visit. Here are 4 more places worth a visit in LA:
Pasadena Library 285 E Walnut St, Pasadena, CA 91101

Gingham is not just for picnics. It’s a fun-loving easy-to style print that I love with jeans, white pants or skirts. For example, I’ve had this beautiful gingham wrap dress in my closet forever but it was too short on me, but then in dawned on me, I could pair a fluted navy skirt underneath. Midnight styling sessions while the kids sleep really is paying off. However, the 7am alarm clock is a rude awakening. Thankfully, my in-laws arrive next week. Think lots of new fresh content and date nights. Can you tell I’m excited? See here and here how I styled gingham and shop my top 6 picks below.

You probably already know, I collect denim. I’m pretty picky about the wash and fit, but I found a couple faves, some of which are under $100! Don’t forget to size up since they arrive pretty stiff. I’m definitely bringing a couple pairs to Mexico with Reid and I, as I love how they look with ruffles and going out tops. A good pair of jeans is like a good friend, bring them everywhere, and treat them well. See more denim faves I update daily on my shop page.

This dress embodies two things I love in dresses, a blush color and choker neck tie. Also, I picked up this lace kimono for Mexico, because it is super versatile: think tanks, jeans and dresses, but it can also go over swimsuits! See how I styled a blush trench here. Happy Monday!

I won’t lie, stripes are probably my favorite print to style, and probably hands down one of the essentials every girl should own in her closet. That said, you should buy yours wisely. Here, I styled the multi stripe button down, with another stripe layer, go-to light wash Levi’s, and barely there heels to make you look longer and leaner, to balance those oh-so-essential prints. Just in time for the weekend. Speaking of, I will be in full birthday mom-mode, celebrating both my boy’s birthdays, 4 yrs, and 6 yrs. Where did my babies go? In the meantime, go see my fave stripe picks for #Nationalstripeday below.

Overalls are making a comeback – are you ready? The trick is how you style them. I prefer the looser off the shoulder top, nude heels and stripe tunic. It’s a boho chic look that works for casual Friday to farmer’s market Saturdays. Just don’t forget a big bag to collect all your market spoil. Here’s hoping I can convince my 7 year-old to wear her cute overalls with me. But I’m not going to hold my breath since moments together and relationships outweigh even the cutest photo op. PS. If you follow me on Instagram, you will agree with me that I can’t stop styling this stripe tunic – which is also on my shop page.
Fishnets, cropped denim and extra silky tops for the win! And no, we didn’t get a dog. Here I’m standing with our friend’s dog, La Mer. And while La Mer is incredibly friendly and absolutely gorgeous, she’s also been known to eat lightbulbs and shoes. The kids desperately want a dog, but hubby and I aren’t quite ready to take the plunge (lightbulbs! shoes!) so we compromise by borrowing other people’s dogs. It’s working so far. But IF we were to get a dog, our 3 favorite dog breeds are Silver labs, Weimaraners, and any small mutt with a black eye. I’m just glad La Mer didn’t take a bite out of my Miu Miu’s. Now, that would be a whole different story.

Lately, I’m loving a white tank, stripe tunic and favorite jeans for a weekday outfit. Reid and I are headed to Mexico in the next couple weeks to celebrate our Anniversary though late. I will definitely be bringing this pom pom hat, dress, and stripes south of the border.

Nothing says Spring like a dress and florals. Here I dressed up a $29 floral dress with a designer belt, gold accessories and blush trench heels. I love belted dresses for the shape and overall polish. I think we will be seeing lots more florals and blush to come. Now, back to organizing, meal planning, outfit sorting, and list making. Happy weekend!
