Simple dining table set up to bring a little Easter to the house for the weekend 🤍

I love my dining room table from Arhaus it was one of the investment pieces we made when building our house. It’s a place we gather and sit at every night we have no regrets 🙌🏻

I bought these placemats almost 10 years ago from @Crate & Barrel which obviously means they are a timeless investment they have lived in all of our homes seamlessly.

I picked up a bunch of taper candles from Joann’s before they closed what a deal! These flower ones are such a great dupe for Anthropologie.

I don’t like to buy seasonal items so my candleholders from World Market remain neutral and I’ll spice things up with a fun candle which i will throw away once it burns anyways. Investing in timeless things is my style so stick around if you want to invest in making your life timeless and curated.

#LTKHome

When I’m purchasing plates and cookware I always go for a timeless and neutral look.

I am constantly reaching for my pasta bowl plates! There’s just something about how easy they make plating meals. I’m linking my favorite and tried and true kitchen plates and essentials here.

In my opinion, I’d rather invest in really good timeless pieces than buying a bunch of seasonal kitchen items.

#ltkhome

Here’s an easy but elevated coastal outfit for a girls night out or running around town! I love my @Quince linen shorts and am wearing a size small the elastic waistband is perfect.

This is a @jcrew shirt I’ve had for over 10 years there really is nothing like investing in 100% cotton pieces that will last a lifetime I’m wearing a size 2 but could size up to a 4 for a more oversized look.

I’m wearing a few of my investment jewelry pieces from Gorjana and Kendra Scott. If you follow me, you know I link these pieces constantly in my outfits. There’s nothing like a good piece of jewelry that you can get where is out of every single day.

My flats are from target from a couple years ago, so I’m linking some cute similar options that are also on sale!

#LTKgrwm #LTKootd

These are the top items I have purchase for our home and use daily - if I didn’t already own them I’d be buying them again and on SALE! Hurry the spring sale on Amazon ends tomorrow 3/31

What are you scoring on the Amazon Spring Sale deal?

The ultimate pool side set up: cold wine, hydration, and a charging phone (why is mine always dead)

but seriously, this portable charger comes in so useful all the time! I originally purchased it for plugging in lamps around Grazing Haus but it’s also come in handy during hurricane season.

Honestly, there’s no other place. I’d rather be for happy hour than my house and my wine stand is so fun and just makes my at home experience that much more bougie and special. 🤣🥹

Do not be like me and wait a year to purchase these Lounge chair covers! I didn’t include it, but I am disgusted at how much pollen is sitting on the covers. They are truly saving my chairs. Unfortunately, my wood is showing signs of rain and sun damage - I wish I would’ve covered them from the beginning!

Here’s to a happy poolside lounging.

I don’t pickle often but when I do I wear something like this! These Amazon shorts live rent on rotation in my closet! I’ve owned them for over one or two years now and they are just the perfect thing to put on. I love that they’re a little skort in the front. I am wearing a size small in the color borealis green and the top is a size medium. This whole outfit is from Amazon. I’m linking everything below.

Let’s pack my boat bag! I’ve learned a few tips and tricks along the way. This was for a lunch day so the bag was a bit lighter but still essential items in my eyes!

I’ve been using the @Teleties hair clips for a couple of years and they really are indestructible I love them! I prefer the large clip for my hair (I have a medium it’s fine too but the large feels more secure)

Sharing some boat bag essentials you’ll find with me anytime I’m getting on the boat! You never know what the day holds so I always like to pack things to keep me fresh and ready for adventure here in SWFL.

Owning a boat and being married to a boat man we have a few rules I would love to share: never use spray sunscreen on the boat (it goes everywhere and makes cleaning the boat that much harder), never bring GLASS on a boat it’s so dangerous and you don’t want anyone getting injured, always bring sunglasses because the sun reflecting from the water will burn your eyeballs! If you can invest in a good pair, or bring cheapies incase you’re accident prone 🤣

I hope this helps you on your next boat day

Sharing a round up of all my looks this spring I’ve been wearing in Southwest Florida - everything from running errands, date, night nights, and sunny boat and beach days!

A lot of these pieces are considered staples in my closet and investing in high-quality cotton and linen pieces (hello @Quince ) have always been my go to for living in Southwest Florida.

You’ll see that a lot of my outfits I repeat the same Jewelry because I also believe in investing in staple gold pieces to complement my warm autumn palette and my go to outfit looks.

Sharing my favorite details about our outdoor kitchen - linking the exact products we used!

I used four of the floating shelves sold in a two pack and use the color natural - I’m very impressed with the quality of these prebuilt shelves and came with all the hardware to install.

I know the fridge seems like a splurge, but living in Florida. We needed a good quality fridge that would stand the time of our Florida Summers. So far it stood the test of time for one year!

Since we don’t use the lights every night, the charge on the magic bulbs is lasting forever. They are definitely not a nuisance and I love how they have so many different lighting color options.

The small little details of soap and a hand towel outside just makes the space feel lived in and ready to go at any moment. I concentrated on mixing up the materials outside, so I brought in a cement tray for the amber glass soap dish. It pops really nicely on our steel gray leathered granite.

Save this post for your outdoor kitchen in inspiration!

Sharing the Amazon find of the year - this backyard patio set is under $2,000 and seats 8 (or even 12 if you have extra chairs)

The best part - the hidden expansion leaves inside! This table did come in multiple pieces so assembling it is required which my husband did for us. It also came with a color maintenance kit but so far this table has kept its color against the Florida sun and rain! If you’re looking for an outdoor set this season I can’t recommend this one enough

Loving my new white wine glasses from Amazon! They’ve definitely been put to the test I have managed to not break any of them 🤣 linking my favorites here

I love my Jasmine Garden Fountain from @Wayfair it’s so peaceful in the mornings and adds a nice water element to the front of our home. It was so heavy (made of cement) there is not one Florida hurricane that will blow things thing around! This is the color “natural” and we ordered the 22”x15,5”x15.5” - it comes with the river rocks as well!

Sharing my boat day outfit recipe: light weight pants and top - plus gold accessories!

Love my new @Zara purse for going into lunch

Wearing a since SMALL in the bathing suit - this is perfect for a wide set low top bust girl (I’m a 32 C)

Linking similar white pants gou can never go wrong with a pair of these in your closet.

The top is a medium from @abercrombie I own it in a few color ways to make laying easy

Sharing what I did to make my bathroom feel like a spa at home! These little details really pulled together my bathroom this spring and I’m sharing everything that I would buy over again if I wanted to make a bathroom, feel like a spa 🧖‍♀️ #ltkhome

Linking all my favorite things from Wayfair and Amazon for a fresh Spring Backyard. I love things that have hidden features, especially this 8 person dining table with 2 hidden extensions, and these lounge chairs with hidden tables! These help keep the backyard clean and clutter free.

I inviested in a wine bucket to help make happy hour at home that much more special AND it also keeps the table clear of clutter. Hostess Hack: put the bucket in the fridge ahead of time to help keep things extra cold.

Getting ready for a dockside event this afternoon and I knew my new
@Quince long sleeve linen top would be perfect for this event. It’s beautifully breezy and 70° here in Southwest Florida - a rare afternoon where I can get away wearing jeans and a long sleeve! Especially being waterside, the breeze will be even more, so a simple messy ponytail, and a casual nautical feeling outfit was on the Vision board.

I originally ordered this top in a small and decided to size up to a medium for a more relaxed fit, and I am so glad I did. If you don’t know, linen only gets better with time, so the more I wear this shirt, the more relaxed and lived in. It will become.

I paired this with some simple, gold jewelry, a warm brown, leather belt, and some comfortable sandals to stand in for the next few hours.

Finally refreshed our Master Bathroom for Spring - these little details really made it feel like a spa. The biggest surprise of the Amazon Haul was this $20 Runner! It's SO soft, washable, and the print is a great quality. I ordered it in a 2x5 and it fits perfectly in front of our sinks, and allows space for the shower door to swing out.

Since our shower is so exposed these soap bottles really made the space feel more cohesvie, I purchased the white set for myself, and the black for my husbands.

I use my tub almost every night, and I was waiting until I found the perfect tub tray, this one marked off all my wishes. It comes fully assembled, in a dark color, and expands so I didn't have to worry about the length.

Shop now to refresh your space this weekend!

Simple swaps that instantly refresh your bathroom - ordered today on Amazon so you can refresh your bathroom this weekend 🤍

I am shocked at the quality of this $20 runner! It is soft, had no smell, and the print is not super fake looking. The beige color is a surprising cream, not too yellow.

I love these waffle towels. The natural color comes in very warm not super brown looking. It was a perfect compliment to the Tile. I have in my bathroom.

I use this travertine soap tray in my shower for a solo bar of soap that I keep in there. It helps make everything clean and there’s no more soap scum building up on my shower niche.

My favorite part about this pillow for the tub is that it comes with a washable bag so it makes keeping it clean and sanitary so simple it also comes with the hook so that it’s able to air dry!

I went with this tub tray because I did not have to assemble it. It came fully intact and I love how it was expanded so I knew it would fit whatever size tub I placed it on.

Happy spring shopping!!

Outdoor kitchen details we finally pulled together 🤍

It took us a 13 months to get this space where we wanted it, but the biggest difference came down to the small pieces — lighting, shelving, and a few functional upgrades that made it feel finished.

Linking everything we used here if you’re building something similar.

Linen and cotton OOTD

Loving this new pair of @abercrombie pants and using an old but staple linen top from @Zara to feel effortlessly put together here in SWFL

I’m wearing a size small in the pants and linking similar tops 🤍

Let me introduce you to rechargeable magic bulbs 🪄 the perfect solution for if and when you don’t have the budget, the time, or the patients to run electric electrical for lighting. This project was a combination of all three of those things. I headed over to Amazon and picked up a set of these magic bulbs that are rechargeable using a USB-C charger. They are so bright and cast just the amount of light I needed for ambience to complete my outdoor kitchen. They are so inexpensive and you can adjust the color of the bulbs, set a timer, and adjust brightness. These bulbs are great for any project around the house.

I first discovered silicone baking trays a couple of years ago, and I have been using these ever since! They can go in the dishwasher, you do not need to spray, you don’t have to use muffin papers, they are amazing! I bake muffins in these I make my egg bites in these I just can’t get over how easy they make cooking.

If I was going to invest in a pair, I would definitely consider a tray that has an aluminum support bar like the one in the top of my video here. The original that I bought is on the bottom and because they’re flimsy, you have to place them on a baking tray to support or else you’re going to have a mess everywhere. I’ve linked both styles here!

Iced lattes at home are so easy with my Phillips 3300 espresso machine 🥰

To make my lattes, I use a whisk to blend the espresso shots and maple syrup together before I add the rest of my ingredients.

This machine works with just the push of a button - anyone can be a barista!

Slowly building out our outdoor kitchen area, and these are a few of the details that came together in the final design.

The floating shelves and lighting made the biggest difference in making the space feel finished.

Cannot believe I got this skirt for $23! I’m wearing a size small and it fits my waist perfectly.

This crapped racer back tank top is another Amazon favorite I’m wearing a size small.

This is a staple outfit for me living in southwest Florida - and the coral color skirt is perfect for my warm autumn palette. Now I just have to lay out and finally get a tan 🥰

I’ve rearranged our patio three times since moving in last year and I finally found the perfect spot for my lounge chairs. All that was missing was an umbrella to cover me from the Florida sun! I headed to Home Depot and picked up this inexpensive umbrella holder. She got the job done!

Linking my patio set up here 🤍

I have been boating in Southwest Florida for the last 10 years and have the perfect boat day outfits on repeat. For a boat day like today we were just going to lunch so I knew I could get away with something that was a little more restaurant friendly. What that means is, I’m not wearing a sun shirt that I would normally wear in the water to protect my shoulders. This day was also a lot shorter than most boat days so I knew I wasn’t going to nedx as much sun protection.

It was 75 and sunny so I opted for linen and cotton materials to wear on the boat as much as I love a denim short I struggle with finding them to be very comfortable so these linen shorts from @Target are drawstring and perfect for a day on the water. I also pulled out this oversized Universal Thread button down from target as well. I’m wearing a size small in the shorts and a medium in the top. I liked the oversized comfy fit.

For shoes, I picked up a pair of these Dolce Vita sandals from belk last spring and they are so comfortable. I got them in a size 9 TTS.

The most important part of the outfit is your hair. I always slick mine back because when you’re going fast on a boat, there’s no use in doing curls or anything that would become tangled!

These are a few kitchen tools. I reached for constantly when cooking at home. Nothing fancy - just everyday pieces that make cooking easier. Especially my espresso machine. I use this at least four times a day. It saves me so much money, and is a mess, free and hassle free!

Spring Date Night Outfit

This Rent the Runway find surprised me in the best way. I rented it for our anniversary dinner and ended up loving the structured denim and gold buttons — it feels dressed up but still effortless.

Perfect for a spring date night, dinner out, or a special occasion. I’m wearing a size 6 and have a small 32c bust

My Morning Coffee Setup ☕️

I’m an espresso girlie through and through, so my Philips 3300 espresso machine gets used at least four times a day — no exaggeration.

Morning hot water, morning espresso, an afternoon espresso drink, and then my nightly tea ritual. It truly does it all.

I also love these JoyJolt double-walled mugs because you can see the layers in your drink — and honestly there’s just something very European about an espresso glass. Am I right?

Spring Date Night Outfit 🤍

I rented this dress from rent the runway for a dinner date with Jeremy. I’m linking a few similar styles I love.

Living in Southwest Florida. I get so much use out of this little shell clutch from Dolce Vita! It fits my iPhone 15 pro max - and maybe one tube of lip gloss though that’s the only downfall.

I scored these dolce vita shoes earlier this year I am a true size 9 and they are so comfortable and are my go to for spring night outs currently.
