1.  Oversize blazer (I’m wearing a small)

2. White tank (get it in black too!)

3. Distressed denim shorts (I’m wearing a size 27)

4. White Bella Band (I have in both black and white!)

5. Tan Booties in caramel suede (they’re 40% off!) 

I’m also wearing the following: Aviator sunglasses // Belt bag // Drop earrings 

Nordstrom always seems to nail it. I was looking for an oversize blazer over jeans, and distressed shorts and I found it all online at Nordstrom.com! I was so excited to share it with you. Also, if you’re on the lookout for denim shorts that are a good mom length, these are it! As for the white blazer, I got a small and it fits perfectly over the bum. So flattering. As a disclaimer, with 4 kids and a 36 week belly, I’m no stranger to stains. To be honest, I usually bring a tide stick with me. If you’re as crazy about oversize blazers as I am, this plaid one is equally stunning. Speaking of belly, try this bella band if you’re pregnant and wanting to still wear your pre-pregnancy jeans by covering this clever band over your denim zipper. Genius!

While in Lake Arrowhead last weekend, I wore this blazer over this dress and got tons of compliments. And yes, if you’re wondering, I’m wearing all the white after labor day. No rules ladies. Wear what you like, and if you want to feel EXTRA in white, use this self tanner.

Happy September!

4 Things you need for fall

  1. Jeans
  2. Trench
  3. Tee (long)
  4. Loafers

This look is the perfect combination of something unique like the Ann Howell bag and all my closet basics. And speaking of basics, Nordstrom has the best options—I’m loving these Gucci loafers, long tunic, flattering jeans, Bella band, and mom-friendly bag slash backpack. Nordstrom is always my go-to for quality basics like these, awesome customer service, and options for curbside pick-up. The latter of which I will probably use when I have a nursing baby!

The annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale starts July 12, and I wanted to give you a heads up! It’s that time of the year, I get a sitter all day, shop what I like, share it all with you. Not to mention, it’s a great time to stock up on gifts for Christmas and birthdays. This year is a little different having the Arrowhead house to furnish and having a cute baby bump! I will be sure to look for items that work both for maternity and non-maternity as well as good home finds. I’m on the search for fluffy pillows, throws and candles for house guests. One of the things I LOVE about the sale is that it includes CURRENT ITEMS for fall so when the sale is over all the pieces go back to retail price August 6.

One of the overwhelming things about the sale is that there is a lot to comb through from beauty to basics to home accessories! That is why I am here to FILTER what I consider is worth your time and include when I post on the blog, Instagram and the Liketoknow.it app! So, we sure to follow me on the LiketoKnow.it app for exclusive products and outfits that will not be on the blog and instagram.

FYI NORDSTROM card members shop 8 days earlier than everyone else and get first pick of sizes and styles. It is KEY to have the card for early access to secure your size because some years I have procrastinated and haven’t been able to find my size 4 dress and size 9 heels, soooo sad.

JULY 12-19 all cardmembers get to shop Early Access in stores and online.

The biggest holiday of the summer is upon us and I have to admit, I’m pretty excited. We just wrapped up the kitchen remodel of our A-Frame cabin on Lake Arrowhead and it’s going to be so nice to have it done and ready for my family next week. Although I’m excited about family time and the cabin, I also had to get everyone’s outfit for the 4th just right!

So like I said, we will be spending the holiday at Lake Arrowhead, which means I opted for a simple white dress for myself, a blue banana dress for my eldest, polos for my boys, and overalls for my youngest daughter. I love how Nordstrom always has an awesome online selection of girls and boys clothes. My eldest is growing like a weed, so if I’m unsure about sizing I order two sizes and easily return from home. Having a large family, Nordstrom has also provided conveniences like curbside pick up. So easy! I just parked and called the number they provided and me and the kids and I waited in the car while the store associate loaded our bags. Super convenient and just another reason to love Nordstrom right? When I’m dressing them, it’s all about simplicity when you’re planning on having a low key weekend with lots of grilling and my favorite flag cake. Have you ever made a flag cake? It’s amazing! I’ve included the recipe below.

Whatever you’re doing for the holiday, I hope you have a lovely 4th of July with friends and family enjoying all the freedom our country has to celebrate.

I’m a firm believer that you when you feel your best, you look your best. I had rare afternoon solo so I hopped over to Nordstrom to try on a couple pieces that would work with my growing belly! I found this camisole top with cute laser cut for upcoming summer weekends. I also was happy I fit into this rose sleeveless body con maxi. So comfy!

How is it almost Father’s Day? I’m not sure how time is going so fast but it is. I love Father’s Day to celebrate all the hardworking dads and husbands out there. The kids usually make Reid homemade cards and we give him a couple gifts. In this case—a shirt that happens to have his initials on it and his favorite bar of dark chocolate!

I don’t know about you, but buying gifts for dads and men in general, is a challenge. For Reid, I chose a couple things I knew he needed because dads always appreciate some practicality, right? And to make things super easy for you guys, I rounded up some favorites from Nordstrom below. They always have an awesome selection. I can buy multiple sizes and colors and enjoy free at home returns (these are the best).

Gifts aside, Reid works incredibly hard for us each and every day and for that he at least deserves one day of gifts, cards and chocolate. It’s been an incredible journey watching him take on the role of “dad” and seeing him teach the kids how to swim, draw and swing a golf club. Most importantly though, he’s taught the kids to always play fair with each other and to always treat people how they’d like to be treated. Where would we be without such a wonderful man?  Happy Father’s Day, Reid, not sure what we would do without you!

The season of dresses all day, every day is upon us! And let me tell you, that is amazing news for someone with a growing bump (although none of these options are maternity, which makes them even better!). I love this time of year because all my favorite brands are releasing their new dresses for summer, so the time to stock up is now!
Today I’ve rounded up some of my favorites for you guys so you’ll be ready for all the summer weddings and brunch dates on restaurant patios. Of course there’s plenty of floral options because who doesn’t love floral for spring and summer? I’m also a big fan of the wrap dress, so I’ve included that style as well. I find that it’s just really flattering on any body type.
The best part of this roundup? They’re all under $50! No need to feel guilty for this mini little shopping spree! The price point is super wallet friendly and saves enough for that beach vacation. 😉

I don’t know about you, but I love a good selfie. I don’t always need the photo taken with the big camera to appreciate an outfit. I like styling pieces on the go, and as you know, my life, like yours, is very much ON the GO! I was happy to find long distressed shorts to wear this summer with a bella band, a wrap dress under $50, flattering black jeans and lots of irresistible shoes! I thought I’d share them here too on the blog. As always my shop page is open 24/7, you can follow me on the LiketoKnow.it App, and ask any questions. Happy Tuesday!

Spring is the time of year when I like to start taking a few fashion risks. I’ll step outside my regular comfort zone and mom uniform and try to incorporate new trends or a bold pattern. Right now, that pattern is polka dots. I definitely think there’s a way to embrace a fun polka dot outfit, but also keep your look sophisticated and stylish. Plus, it just seems like there are so many cute polka dot finds at Nordstrom right now, and because I do so much of my shopping there, I want to embrace it!
For this particular look, I went the chic route with an all-white outfit that’s perfect for spring. The paper bag pants fall right in line with the wide-leg trend that you’ve probably seen everywhere, and can also be worn with so many different tops. Of course, though, because I’m wanting to incorporate polka dots into my life, I chose this adorable long sleeve crop top with a ruffle detail. It adds a little whimsey and is great for brunches or a date night.

My biggest tip for adding polka dots to your style is to mix and match! You can do this pattern-wise, like how I added the round straw bag with the stripe pattern. Or, you can also take something more whimsical like a polka dot top and mix it with extra chic pants and a pretty mule or kitten heel.
