This week, I …
· Added a shiny new stamp to my passport with a quick getaway to St. Martin. I can’t wait to share all of our vacay photos, but you can already catch a few snaps on Instagram.
· Lived in a few easy summer pieces during our trip, including this printed romper and these little pom pom shorts. I promise you, you need them in your life!
· Love that LOFT is already celebrating summer with 40% off everything! My faves: this sleeveless chambray dress, this polka dot dress and this paisley maxi dress. Sale ends on Sunday!
· Read Fault in Our Stars while I was on vacation. It’s a tearjerker! More book recommendations please!
· Got a sneak peek of Oasis’ fall/winter collection. Um yeah, I know — I don’t even want to think about cold weather right now, but there was so much to love! Until then, I have my eye on their summer collection.
· Am loving all things nautical over at C. Wonder. Can we talk about rope necklaces number one and two? Also loving this graphic sweater, this striped tote and this darling dress.
· Made a vow to do a little more cooking following a very indulgent vacation so I’m collecting ideas over on my recipe board on Pinterest. Need to try these loaded sweet potatoes. I’d love to hear about your favorite recipes!
· Also have my eye on some new arrivals from Ann Taylor. Take 40% off your entire purchase this weekend only! I’m loving this periwinkle dress, this pom pom scarf and these snake skin heels.
· Just can’t — for the life of me — get on the bandwagon with this whole Birkenstock craze, but J.Crew, Shopbop and Net-a-Porter are all on board. And no, floral print or a metallic finish does not make it better. What do you think of the 90’s throwback trend?
· Am doing some major purge of my closet. You can reap the benefits over on my Poshmark page — everything must go!

This week, I …
· Just picked up this beach cover-up, this floral print romper and these short shorts for our trip to St. Martin next week. Someone get me to the beach … right meow.
· Uploaded a bunch of new items to my Poshmark closet and they’re going fast! Shop my wardrobe here.
· Enjoyed my first run by the river of the year. Man, I missed this view. Note to self: get outdoors more often!
· Rounded up a few of my favorite Derby-inspired dresses, but for those of you who aren’t sipping on a mint juleps this weekend, I’m loving alternative dresses one, two and three. They’re all 30% off this weekend only!
· Am loving the fact that paisley is making a comeback for summer. How darling is this shirt, this pencil skirt, this dress and these pants?
· Played dress up with the fabulous team at vente-privee. I wore a fabulous floral dress and a gorgeous bag. Can’t wait to share the full look and details with you later this month!
· Can’t get enough of hot yoga. Have you tried it before? I made it one of my goals to try Bikram yoga before my next birthday, but my friend recommend this version instead. NYC friends, check out Yoga to the People. Five dollars for the best, sweatiest sixty minutes of your life!
· Heard that J.Crew is launching a lower-priced line (called J.Crew Mercantile) that falls somewhere in between full-price and J.Crew Factory. Amazing right?? The debut is TBD, so in the meantime, I have my eye on this striped dress, this crystal necklace and this punk floral print skirt.
· Am co-sponsoring a fabulous giveaway with some fabulous bloggers. Enter to win a $500 to Target!

This week, I …
· Scored some major deals during LOFT’s overnight flash sale on Tuesday (it’s 40% off everything this weekend!). Two new jackets (one moto and one striped tweed), a navy blue blazer and a flowy button up blouse in black and navy. You know I can’t say no to a sale.
· Have my eye on a few leopard print dresses from ASOS. I especially love this shift dress and this one with leather pockets,
· Enjoyed a quick little getaway down to DC this past weekend. The weather was amazing, the cherry blossoms were beginning to bloom and I scooped up a new pair of heels! I’d say that’s a win.
· Am having some major spring bag lust. Love this pink/cheetah bag, this bright turquoise cross body and this hole-punched leather tote. You can never have too many bags, right? Right.
· Tried CityRow for the first time. I’ve never rowed in my life, but I loved the high energy class because it engage your arms, legs and core. My abs are still sore from class … but it was totally worth it! I think next up on the workout bucket list: Pure Barre. Would love to hear your experiences on either class!
· Am loving the Peter Som for Kohl’s DesigNation collection! My favorites include this striped empire dress, this white eyelet dress, these printed drawstring pants and this brightly striped romper. Who else is ready for summer?
· Read an interesting article by Fashionista on beau-togs: boyfriends who take photos for their blogger boos. My favorite sound bite: “There is a golden rule in style blogging: you are nothing without your photographer.” So lucky to have one of my own!
· Need to hide my wallet because the DVF Friends & Family Sale is going on this weekend. On my radar: these tortoise pumps, this bright yellow crossbody and this printed flare skirt.
· Am off on another trip — this time into the heart of Texas to visit on of my BFFs. On the agenda, BBQ, two-steppin’ and matching tattoos (just kidding about the last one mom). Follow along on Instagram! #skirttheglobe
