Green Sunglasses

The past couple of weeks have been cray cray.  We went on a family vacation, the week we got back I had to kick it into high gear for the kids birthdays and birthday party, the next week I was busy and traveling for work, and now I'm getting things ready for Lucas starting Pre-K.  I'm pretty darn exhausted!  

But in more interesting news, how fun are these green sunglasses?!  I first saw these when I went to New York in April and didn't buy them thinking it wasn't something I needed.  Well, duh.  Of course I needed them!  It's such a fun color and I love that it adds some color to my black and white all the time uniform :-)

Night Out In Scalloped Espadrilles

Jacket  /  Tank  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Sunnies  /  Bag {Similar}

That's right.  This girl went out..at night!  Over the weekend, my husband and I had a date night with some friends of ours which is always a great time seen as though these nights don't come easily with our busy schedules and kiddos.  I love our few date nights and getting to get dressed up somewhere else beside work!  And I have to sing the praises of these super comfortable espadrilles and...they're scalloped...and they're on sale...I mean...

Blue Henley Top

Top  /  Tank  /  Pants  /  Belt  /  Shoes  /  Bag {Similar}  /  Bracelets  /  Sunnies

I love a good henley top that can be worn to work as well.  And it's hard to tell from the photos but I have a scalloped tank underneath that I just love.  Although I work in an environment that is not super casual, I much prefer to wear comfortable work clothes that a stiff suit that are at times required for what I do.  This top is such a nice material, looks professional, and was super comfortable!  I love it so much that I ordered it in another color.  I'm trying not to get carried away with sales lately since the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale starts soon!

Pink and Leopard

Shirt  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Sunnies  /  Bracelets  /  Watch  /  Bag {Similar}

Rynetta recently posted a magenta, camel, and leopard print outfit on her Instagram account and I just loved the color combo so much.  This top has a peplum back detail that makes it very flowy and forgiving...which, I mean, is a must ;-)  I'm actually typing this post out in my car waiting for preschool doors to open so I apologize for the brevity!

Seersucker Top

Top  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Sunnies  /  Bracelets  /  Watch  /  Bag {Similar}

It's definitely not easy to take OOTD photos time and kiddo wise.  When I first started blogging, my husband and I would go to a location before we went into the office but those days are long gone.  I now take photos in the same spot and it is literally right before we get into our cars to go to work.  But whenever I have a huge smile on my face I know it's a picture that was taken with my husband holding the camera in one hand and Olivia on the other hip.  She's a scene stealer in every sense and will give me a huge smile which of course makes me have a goober grin on my face :-)

In other news, I LOVE this top!  I looked online and it looks like only the green is available but this one pops up periodically it seems.  I love the babydoll/poplin look and the seersucker pattern is adorable for this time of year!

Bright Blue Sweater

Sweater  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Necklace  /  Sunnies  /  Bag {Similar}

This weekend we celebrated Father's Day and my 34th birthday on the same day.  I had written in my planner to "do big things today" but instead I took an unheard of afternoon nap and I call that a success these days!  The day was spent with loved ones and cake - also great success :-)  Hope you all had a great weekend!

Orange Ruffle Shirt

Top {Similar}  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Bag {Similar}  /  Necklace  /  Sunnies  /  Bracelets

It's bright a$$ orange, it has ruffles, and I flipping love it.  The girl who loves to wear black more than anything is finally into color color color!  I had been going back and forth over black (duh) and this orange color and I am so happy to have branched out of my comfort zone!

Scalloped Tank

Sweater {Similar}  /  Tank  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Bag {Similar}  /  Sunnies  /  Bracelets

It wasn't until I uploaded these photos that I noticed I took pictures with my sleeves rolled up and hair band around my wrist...it's an unfiltered life I lead.  But that scalloped tank though!  I live for scalloped anything and as soon as I saw this tank was scalloped, I knew I had to have it.  I also love that it has adjustable straps so I was able to pull it up a little higher for a more professional office look.

Lady in Tweed

Jacket (ON SALE!)  /  Dress  /  Shoes  /  Sunnies  /  Bag {Similar}  

I just feel smart wearing a tweed jacket.  I could be cleaning my carpets but if I have a tweed jacket on, I'm a smart lady cleaning my carpets.  Ok bad analogy but I just love this jacket.  I picked it up when I was in New York and despite practicing law for 7 years (OMG I'm old!) this is my first tweed jacket.  I remember graduating from college and my grandmother telling me that whenever I start my first legal job, I should always have a jacket draped over my chair no matter what.  I keep mine in the car but whenever I wear a blazer and now, a tweed jacket, I remember my grandmother's sound advice.  Believe it or not, her advice has saved me in a pinch when an emergency hearing has come up or a conflict where I have to be in court in a hurry with no time to go home.  Thanks Abuela!

Gold Buttons

Sweater  /  Shirt  /  Pants  /  Shoes  /  Sunnies  /  Bag {Similar}  /  Bracelets

Guys, this cardigan has gold buttons.  GOLD BUTTONS.  I cannot tell you how much I love gold button details.  I mean, I feel so fancy prancing around in a gray sweater with GOLD BUTTONS!  Not much more I can say that just love for this super simple cardigan with...gold buttons.  It's the little things in life :-)

The Southern Lawyer

Dress  /  Sweater {Similar}  /  Shoes  /  Bag  /  Sunnies  /  Bracelets

I'm a woman who lives in the South and this is my very first Lilly Pulitzer dress...the shame!  I honestly feel like Lilly Pulitzer is the way of life here and I can't believe it's taken me this long to buy anything Lilly Pulitzer?!  As with everything I buy, I try to make sure that it's something I can also wear at the office since I'm there so much.  I think the colors on this dress aren't too bright that I can get away with it at the office and adding a sweater blazer transforms it to an office look.  Oh who cares!  I really like this dress and it was so comfortable for a long day at the office.  I'm a Lilly girl now :-)

Summer Vibes

Sweater  /  Shirt  /  Pants  /  Sunnies  /  Shoes  /  Bag {Similar}

Going back to work after a long weekend is always a little bit of a bummer and we are definitely feeling major summer vibes in Florida.  Although I have a sweater on, I think the lace up sweater and gingham poking through gives off just enough summer vibes for the office.
