Last year about this time I was explaining how excited I was to head to Mexico, get married, and finally be done wedding planning. I'm here to say that I'm even more excited for this vacation than I was for our wedding!

WEEKLY WRAPUP

Top of the mornin and Happy St. Patrick's day! 

Today I'm being a lame responsible adult & am at work all day and not drinking green beer, boring!

No worries though, pizza party Friday will commence later, accompanied by green beer so all is well.

OUTFIT INSPIRATION: NEUTRALS + RUFFLES

easy-outfits-for-moms
It's no secret that I wear a ton of neutrals. It's easy and timeless and if we're honest, people tend to not notice how many times I wear the same black jeans all week. Or maybe you do, but who cares! Unlike a bright red blazer, neutrals can be worn over and over while mixing it up to create many different outfits.

I did a whole year of capsule wardrobes but have since stopped (more to come on that later) but I still try to be very intentional with my purchases. This is why neutrals are a big part of my life. Wearing neutrals doesn't mean you have to wear a black tee and jeans everyday; but by all means, do it if you'd like to!

I have a collection of basic, simple neutral tops that I rotate and layer every day. However I'm trying to find a few pieces that while still neutral, add something more to the outfit. This is where ruffles come in.

I'm not a the girliest girl, but I've been dying over these big sleeves and ruffles trend that I see popping up everywhere. I've put together some super simple, yet comfortable, outfits that can be worn running errands with kids, to the office and even on a night out; even if nights away from the kids are far and few! Some of the hardest times as a mom are when I st don't feel good about myself. Freshening up my wardrobe with pieces I can wear at home, to work or a night out can sometimes brighten up my mood in the strangest way!

Hope you like the looks as there is a little something for everyone! Are you loving ruffles too or is there a certain trend you're totally drawn too?

WHAT I GAVE UP FOR LENT

what-to-give-up-for-lent

Every year I try and think of something that would benefit me and give it up for Lent. Some years I do it, some I don't. In the past I've given up coffee, alcohol, fast food, candy, etc; pretty standard things when it comes to what people give up.
