Maxi & Moto

April 7, 2015

Every day that it’s 60 degrees outside, I feel like yelling at the top of my lungs: spring is here! Well it’s been two weeks since the official start of the season, but spring isn’t really here until picture peonies are clogging up your Instagram feed and the whole city is covered in flowers. Soon enough! I see buds popping up in planters on every corner and within a few weeks, the streets will be in full bloom.

Until then, I’ll just have to represent in this floral maxi dress. I wore something similar for my bridal shower in Arizona, but I love how the black and white palette and a moto jacket give it a bit of an urban update. It also makes for the perfect backdrop to my new coral crossbody. Isn’t she a beaut? Check out some of my favorite floral maxi options below and someone please bring me some spring!

Wear:
Jacket: (similar here and here)
Dress: ASTR (love this option)
Sunglasses: Karen Walker
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff (also in blue, mint, and turquoise)
Ring: Kendra Scott (c/o)
Bracelets: Kendra Scott (c/o); Loren Hope (c/o)
Heels: Ann Taylor

Did you know Cyber Spring was a thing? I didn’t … until I learned that LOFT is having a major sale: take 50% off your entire purchase including new arrivals, sale items AND Lou & Grey. It’s a little dangerous guys. I’m scooping up this sleeveless shirtdress, this lacy bomber jacket and this mint a-line skirt. And just so you know, Lou & Grey is never on sale, so it’s pretty major. I’ve included more favorites from both brands down below, but can we talk about this chambray romper please? The icing on the cake: free shipping! Stock up on your spring wardrobe now — the sale ends Monday night!

Bridal Shower

April 3, 2015

The countdown is on, my friends! We’re got less than two months until the big day and pre-wedding festivities are underway (#skirtthewedding #dangjensgettingmarried). Last weekend, my best friends threw me a bridal shower back in Arizona. I originally wanted to nix the idea because truth be told, I felt a little uncomfortable with the idea of bringing everyone together to celebrate me. Just me. Ack!

Beverage Dispensers // Chalkboard Sign // Cute Bowls // Glass Carafes

Turns out, it was one of my favorite days ever and I’m so glad that I’ll have it to look back on (can’t wait for that Shutterfly book, Em…). I loved having friends and family from all over in one place. We started off with a DIY sangria bar, re-hashed old memories both endearing and embarrassing and read advice that everyone left for me and the groom (my favorite is below!). The highlight had to be Mom and Mother-in-Law taking a shot of Patron together. Never in my wildest dreams!

I’ve already cooked our first meal using the slow cooker that my friend Christine got us (you know you’re getting old when a crockpot excites you). We’ll likely be doing our wedding toast with these “his and her” glasses that Emily gifted us. And of course, we can’t wait to put the honeymoon fund from all of our friends to good use. Their presence is the best present, but they sure do know how to put the icing on the cake. A special shoutout to Brynn, Emily and Ashley for putting this all together! So grateful for the ladies in my life and excited for the days to come! Next stop: Bachelorette Party in New Orleans! Woo woo!
