LISTENING

To the best of the 80s/90s female artists. Love this playlist.

READING

Going to start A Novel Summer tonight! Can’t wait. Here is my summer reading list for ya.

WEARING

For years I’ve raved about the spanx air essentials pieces. I think my most favorite one is this cropped jumpsuit. I LOVE THIS. It’s so comfortable and casual, but looks sleek. I have the long sleeve version of this and love it, but this short sleeve is even better. I have been living in it. Have it in black but want the tahini color! Also, my birkenstock arizona EVA in eggshell. I never thought I’d wear these but I adore them. They are so supportive and comfortable.

LOVING

The ink and volt note pads are still some of my favorite organizational tools. The meal planning pad and daily list are ones I grab frequently. I also use this slim monthly planner for a months-ahead view of all the family activities to stay organized. This acrylic calendar is on our wall when we first walk in, but the monthly planner is so thin and I can easily keep it with me when I need it! I can’t believe how crazy our days get once school starts.

SHARING

Yesterday the MacKenzie Childs barn sale started! Right now, I’m in love with everything sterling check. If you haven’t seen this in person, it’s gray (and I’m not a gray person!) with a slight hint of blue. It is so so so pretty. I have tons of pieces of MC from working with them over the years and I entertain with them constantly. I also purchase it often for friends/family gifts from a local boutique. So I love this sale! The serving platter and oval platter are both fabulous. The three tier stand is one of my favorite pieces that I have. This enamel vase is amazing – so short and stout and the perfect gift. And the triplicity piece! I also love the herb pots, the large cake platter, the abundant bowl and square baking pan.

SHOPPING

Yesterday my mom and I went to shop the anniversary sale in person. I got a set of the moonlight shorts pajamas because they are the best! I am loving the spanx skort too. And order the on cloud coast sneakers in the green, more osea body balm and the wood bowl in the lighter color. Oh and the only sheets that Eddie will sleep on.

PREPPING

I’m getting things ready to go on our annual northern michigan vacation and this list is my life savior! Essentials include this carseat travel tray for Jordan, the backseat organizers for Max and Emilia, Uno splash which is new for us this year, as is the shibumi shade! Have you used one before?
