Friday night I got home and realized I spilled on my dress, so I switched to the dress that arrived in the mail – the “Kate” dress from J. Crew in “Flame.” This is a bright orange-red that I adore. On sale and with a coupon so the dress was a cheap as Old Navy. Score! Same accessories.
Attended a circle of women in my community which was really wonderful. Met some new people, connected closer with those I already knew, had some of the BEST watermelon of the season!
Saturday… for the life of me I cannot remember Saturday. Oh yes, yoga, then lunch with my mom, then ran errands. I came home and tried out some of the camping supplies for our upcoming trip to Bonnaroo, waterproofed my Duo boots, took a nap, went out to dinner… nothing terribly exciting and no pictures.
Sunday began with errands and then yoga.

We had a great time, saw lots of friends, played with their son who just turned 1, chilled on the beach and grilled for dinner. Got a bit of sun even though I put on the SPF 30.

As you read this, I will be heading to or at a campground in the mountains without wifi or cell service. It’s another Girl Scouts getaway, but instead of a beach house, it’s a tent. I’m so glad the forecast is for mild temps and no rain. Cross your fingers for me that it stays…
So how is everyone holding up after a month of this? I’ll be honest, each time I think I’m fine, something causes me to unravel a bit at the seams. I think I have a grasp on the new normal, then I hear of a friend who is diagnosed, I see a story on the…
This Saturday we had a cookout to celebrate our newly married friends. They had a very small, intimate wedding so the bride’s father had an event at his house to include extended family and more friends. Great selection of good food, lots to drink, and plenty of friends. Attire:Old Navy – Green puff sleeve teeAnn…
Swimming is one of the best exercises for pregnant women, and nothing is more enjoyable than a weekend at the beach or pool with friends or family. Thing is, maternity bathing suits are often unflattering, or terribly expensive. Where can a woman find a well-made, flattering and supportive suit that doesn’t cost an arm and…
Hi Allie, I have an a-line eyelet skirt that my cousin gave me. It’s very pretty but I don’t know how to wear it without looking like Annie Oakley. Any suggestions? Thanks, Rebecca Dear Allie, I know you recently wrote about how to wear white before Memorial Day, but I just don’t know how…
