OOTW: MY UPDATED UNIFORM, FITTED TEES + BUCKET BAGS
Move over boyfriend/vintage/boxy tee, because there’s a new girl in town and she’s got a snug fit, cute neckline and a bit of texture but is equally as comfy. Okay, so maybe I’m not quitting on my favorite cotton tops, but I am definitely making room for a new fit and style. It feels good to add something to my jeans and tee uniform that’s a little more femme so I thought I’d share! Bonus that it’s such an inexpensive wardrobe update you can mix and match. Add a bucket or basket bag and boom, easy summer outfit!
SUNNIES (on sale!)| TEE (love this fit too) | WIDE LEG JEANS (similar or a little less wide here) | CONVERSE | WOVEN BAG | SWEATER (old from Purpose boutique)
Looking a lot like a style blogger in this pic, ha!
More like the real me in this one! Doing some adjusting.
Prob tmi, but I only wear strapless bras… no patience for shoulder straps. They make me feel claustrophobic (for lack of a better word!). When wearing a boyfriend, boxy, or vintage tee, I can totally get away with it without too much adjusting going on, but with a fitted tee it’s a different story so I may need to get over the whole strap thing. If anyone has a brand or style they recommend, please spill the beans in the comments!
Just taking in the moment. Thankful to have a husband that’s home randomly during the day on a weekday. Makes me feel like we’re playing hooky whenever we take advantage and sneak away for a bit. Also love that he doesn’t mind wandering with me (or snapping pics for that matter!). Definitely payed off yesterday when we found these pretty stairs!
What’s your favorite way to freshen up your jeans and tees rotation?
xo, Rae
MOTHER’S DAY + FAMILY VALUES
I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend! Still feeling extra grateful that these 5 made me a mama and for the crazy adventure and wild love that comes with motherhood. There is nothing like it. Of course we all know it’s not all morning snuggles and dance parties. It’s exhausting and challenging and […]
MINI MAKERS: WATERCOLOR FISH HATS WITH THE WILD
You guys! I’m so excited to share this fun project I got to dream up for my brother in-law, Mark, and the “School of Salmon” program a group of kids put together based on his film The Wild. The idea of SOS is to bring awareness to the planets last wild salmon run (which is […]
OOTW: EASY + CUTE “SOCCER MOM” OUTFITS (WITH SONNET JAMES)
It can be easy to get stuck styling dresses the same way over and over again so I thought it would be fun to put together a few looks using the same dress. They’re also ball-field approved for all you mamas spending evenings and weekends cheering on your kids while also playing with, keeping track […]
PARENTING HACK: EARLY RISER ACTIVITY BASKET
We all know that in most cases, after having kids, a full nights sleep becomes a rare luxury and a Saturday morning spent in bed isn’t going to happen anytime soon, and personally I’m okay with it. However, when the kids roll outta bed at 5:45am on a Saturday, it’s nice to have something quiet […]
10 COMPANIES THAT MAKE IT EASY TO TWIN WITH YOUR MINI
Me in the pic above: Thinking about what to name our pizzeria and when I can match with one of the kids again. For all my fellow matchy-matchy type mamas out there I thought I’d share a roundup of my favorite companies that make mom + mini twinning a no brainer. Snapped a few pics […]
HAPPY MONDAY + A FAMILY UPDATE
Can’t you just feel the warm pavement in this pic… after such a nice March (by PNW standards anyways), it’s been a rough, cold and rainy April until last week when the sun started making some appearances. Of course chunky sweaters are still a wardrobe staple but they feel more spring-ish when paired with sandals […]
WORK + PLAY: VINTAGE POOL DAYS + A PRETTY FLORAL I DESIGNED FOR OLIVIA + OCEAN
If this doesn’t have you dreaming of pool days with your babes (big or small) this summer, I don’t know what will! I love Olivia + Ocean for their mission to make swimwear that fits into a mama’s lifestyle… so that in between all the towel drying, sun screening, meltdown managing, snack making and (fill […]
HAPPY EARTH DAY + A TIN CAN HERB GARDEN
Earth Day is today and my kids have been sharing all kinds of new-to-them info about different ways to take care of this sweet and beautiful earth that takes such good care of us. So far they’ve picked up most of these tips from school so I thought it was time to do a little […]
MINI BITES: GLUTEN FREE EGG + CHEESE BREAD
One of the perks of allllll the Spring rain this month has been all the time we’ve had to whip things up in the kitchen, including these Brazilian egg + cheese mini breads. They’re delicious, gluten free, full of healthy fats and protein, slightly crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside and perfect […]
THINGS WE LOVE: AN EASTER BASKET ROUND UP
I love finding fun items to fill the kids’ Easter baskets with, but it can be soooo easy for things to get out of control, lol. There’s so much cute stuff out there and honestly, lots of things they could use now that it’s spring. So I always try to stick to a loose theme […]
