Walmart really came to say, “Don’t count us out.” These dresses look like they belong in an Anthropologie fitting room, but every single one is Walmart and under $40. The palm print maxi is giving coastal vacation.The colorful fruit dress is giving summer resort. And that striped set? It looks way more expensive than it is.

Walmart said, “You wanted fun? Watch this.” Comment NEW and I’ll send you all the links.

The prints. The colors. The easy summer dresses. The pineapple sweater. Every piece feels like summer in outfit form.

These are the kind of finds that disappear fast, but don’t worry, Walmart usually restocks the favorites. Grab the one you love before everyone else does.

These pieces from Walmart are coastal perfection and the prices are (nearly) just as good! I love these lightweight, linen fabrics, the coastal prints and this flamingo bag charm is such a cute accent for the most simple bags. I can’t choose a favorite piece, they are all adorable and so on trend.

June had some really good Walmart dresses, and these are my favorites! Whether you’re shopping for vacation, church, brunch, or just everyday summer, these are the ones I’d recommend again and again.

@Anthropologie has some of the most adorable home finds around. These icon juice glasses come in so many different styles and all are super cute! This bistro style “mom” water bottle is beautiful and the shape of this mirror is so unique. I am a fan of all things Paris themed, so this Arc De Triomphe plaster of Paris wall decoration is a must to me. The sale is still going on if you use my code Athena20.

Dinner OOTD 🚢🐭🔗 @Anthropologie last day for the 20 % use code Athena20

I didn’t document every single moment of this cruise, but I documented a few. And I’m so thankful I did.

This day started at beautiful Lookout Cay, where we decided to splurge on a cabana. It’s not something we normally do, but every once in a while it’s fun to say yes to making a memory. We spent the day soaking in the turquoise water, exploring the island, and even stumbled upon what felt like a hidden little gem.

Then it was back to the ship for Pirate Night. Between the music, the laughter, and the sweetest dining team who kept us entertained all evening (and somehow made our grown boys laugh like little kids again), it was another reminder of why we keep coming back.

That’s the thing about Disney. Whether you’re five, fifty, or somewhere in between, they have a way of making every age feel a little more magical.

We ended the night watching fireworks over the ocean, and as I looked around at my people, I couldn’t help but think… these are the moments I’ll remember long after the trip is over.

Just another beautiful day with the people I love most. 🤍 comment links for anything you saw.
