What’s actually in my pool bag as a 38 year old mom of two 👇

Everyone’s sunscreen, including the one I actually reach for… plus my favorite ear plugs + ear dryer (if you have ear kids, you know 🤦🏻‍♀️)☀️🍉🕶️

We got our family photos back today from @gloryandgreen & if she isn’t magic, I don’t know who is! I had myself a day (anxiety is not for the feint of heart) & so getting these today was perfect timing & a welcomed distraction from myself. I was sure we didn’t get a single photo when we left our session but, as usual, I’m happy to report I was wrong! (I *would* have liked a little less wind & a little more volume in my hair, though 🤣). Thank you, Kristy!!! Can’t wait for our next ones!

I took Amelia to the mall the other day & wanted to try on these joggers I’ve been wanting for a while now & Omgosh… currently sitting in my cart in multiple colors & trying to decide which one I want! They’re so soft, lightweight, & comfortable & they looked so nice on!! I really love them! Perfect for year round wear, too. This is my regular size but I tried a size up, too- honestly, both are great… size up is just a little more room if you want a cozier fit! #LTKsustainable #sustainablestyle #golf #travel

Collecting little memories with my girl as often as I can 🩷

The slow mornings. The walks. The quiet afternoons. The moments that probably don’t feel particularly significant right now, but I know I’ll wish I could have back someday.

Motherhood is funny like that… you spend so much time moving through the day that sometimes you have to remind yourself to stop and actually notice it. It just all feels like it’s going by too fast.

So I’m trying to notice a little more lately.

#LTKTravel #LTKHome #LTKmomlife

These pajamas make me feel like I’m on vacation, even when I’m not 😊

There’s just something about slow mornings at the beach that makes me want to stay in pajamas a little longer… especially when they’re this soft.

I wear @LAKE pajamas pretty much every night & have officially become one of those pieces I pack every time we travel. Soft, lightweight, & somehow polished enough that I clearly don’t mind being seen in them 😂

A beach morning with my favorite little boy + my favorite pajamas = pretty much exactly how I want to start every day 🌊

#LTKmomlife #LTKootd #LTKTravel

We spent a few days at the beach a couple of weeks ago with my aunt & uncle. Somehow, it was the first time we made it down all summer & we had the best time! Lots of ice cream, board games, & time in the ocean… definitely team summer forever over here! 🌊☀️🐚

#LTKmomlife #LTKTravel #LTKSwim

I’ve officially decided my summer wardrobe doesn’t need to match. It just needs to make me happy.

Olive + lavender + red shouldn’t necessarily work… and yet here we are. 😂

I think one of the easiest ways to make your wardrobe feel more you is to stop worrying so much about whether everything goes together and start paying attention to whether you like how it feels together.

Give me all the unexpected color combinations.

Spent a few days at the beach last week with some of our favorites 🩷 Love this cotton gauze skirt with this butter yellow ruffle top. 📷 by Joseph!

I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what it actually means to “romanticize your life.”

And I’ve realized it doesn’t always mean fresh flowers, perfectly set tables, or a backyard that looks like a resort.

Sometimes it’s your dog waiting for you at the gate.

It’s eating dinner outside without actually setting the table.

Wearing the dress even though you’re just running errands.

Sitting by the pool for 20 minutes before someone needs you (or it starts to rain).

Noticing the pretty light.

Maybe romanticizing your life isn’t about making your life *look* beautiful…

Maybe it’s about noticing that it already is 🩷

P.S. And if you’re wondering about the pool floats… obviously I linked them. 😂 Everything is also always in my @coreli.ai (link in bio)!

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKHome #LTKSeasonal

We’ve talked about replacing the furniture in our pool pavilion for actual years.

Our old set had served us well, but it wasn’t comfortable anymore, it had holes in the wicker, & we found ourselves walking right past this space instead of actually using it.

A new set from @Wayfair completely changed that.

It’s funny how one update can make a space feel inviting again. We’ve already spent more time out here than we did all of last summer, & I have a feeling this is where you’ll find us for the rest of the season.

Sometimes the projects you put off the longest end up making the biggest difference.

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome #LTKSaleAlert

Some dresses just become part of your summers.

I’ve had this cotton gauze one for years, and every time I put it on, it still feels like sunshine.

#LTKootd #LTKmomlife #LTKSeasonal

I always love seeing what people actually wear on a random Tuesday, so I thought I’d start sharing mine too.

Here’s what I wore to a doctor’s appointment in the city recently. Nothing fancy; just comfortable, easy, and made up almost entirely of pieces I’ve had for years.

Honestly, these are my favorite kinds of outfits because they’re the ones I reach for again and again.

Real outfits. Real life.

Would you like to see more of these?

Summer forever ☀️⛳️👙🕶️

#LTKmomlife #LTKSeasonal #LTKKids

What I wore & where I wore it for most of July! We’ve really been enjoying summer & a much slower schedule ☀️ Lots of (but somehow still not enough!) pool days, time spent with friends & family, walks, Birdie snuggles, coloring mornings, a few camps, & so many unread emails. Long live summer!

#LTKootd #LTKgrwm #LTKSeasonal

If I’m going to be outside, whether it’s by the pool, at the golf course, or walking the dog, these are the two SPF products I never leave home without.

☀️ @dunesuncare’s Mineral Melt gives my skin the prettiest healthy glow while protecting it (and doesn’t leave a white cast!).

✨ @prequelskin’s Lip Visor in Rosedust is one of those products that’s made me finally remember SPF for my lips… because I actually want to wear it.

🕶️ Bonus: If I want a little extra glow, I put on @saltyface’s tanning moisturizer. It doesn’t contain SPF, but it gives the most beautiful sun-kissed look (that doesn’t wash off!).

Save this for your next pool day, beach trip, or vacation or send it to the friend who’s always asking what SPF you’re wearing 🙌

#LTKgrwm #LTKBeauty #LTKSwim

Maybe this is a little too particular…

But if I had to choose one fabric to wear all summer (especially when it comes to tops), it would be cotton voile.

It’s lightweight without being too sheer, polished without feeling fussy, and somehow always looks like you made more of an effort than you actually did.

I’ve collected a few favorites this summer & these are the ones I keep reaching for.

What should I talk about for my next A Little Too Particular? Any other oddly specific style opinions I should be talking about? 😅

Do you have a favorite summer fabric? Tell me yours!

#LTKgrwm #LTKootd #LTKstorytime

Somewhere between Elizabeth Bennet and modern-day cocktail attire is exactly where I want my wardrobe to live.

This is an old @Reformation dress I’ve had for years, and every time I wear it, it feels a little different. This time, instead of leaning fully romantic, I paired it with a leopard pouch, sequin kitten heels, and a bold lip.

My favorite way to get more from the pieces I already own is to mix timeless silhouettes with unexpected, modern details.

I don’t think the goal is a bigger wardrobe. I think it’s a versatile one that keeps surprising you.

If you’re building a closet full of pieces you’ll still be reaching for years from now (with a little Pride & Prejudice energy mixed in), you’re in the right place ✨

Save this for the next time you’re tempted to retire an old favorite instead of styling it a new way.

Old favorites deserve new stories.

#LTKgrwm #LTKootd #LTKWedding

Mixing prints doesn’t have to be intimidating. The trick: keep the color palette connected (this dress and bag both lean towards lighter & softer colors but they’re not an exact match) and vary the scale — small floral, bigger block print. That’s really it. Linking similar dresses and a few other easy print-mixing pieces here 🩷

Linen dress, summer outfit

#LTKgrwm #LTKootd #LTKstorytime

I have a type, and apparently it’s some pair of Lake pajamas in every color. I’ve had these for years, worn them into the ground, and still reach for them first. Turns out buying less but better actually works… who knew?! ☕🐾 @lakepajamas

#LTKootd #LTKgrwm #LTKmorningroutine

Summer so far… Needoh hunting for them, finding all the cotton voile tops for me 🥰

#LTKootd #LTKmomlife #LTKKids

A little golf style moment 💚💛

I used to think getting dressed for golf meant needing a whole separate wardrobe. It was honestly one of the only drawbacks to playing when I was younger- I could never find anything I liked. Now, I’ve found a few brands that I truly love & make pieces I can wear, rewear, and style in different ways.

The formula that works for me:
🤍 a classic base
💚 a little color
💛 one unexpected layer

The best wardrobes aren’t the ones with the most clothes. They’re the ones where everything feels like it belongs & makes you feel most like YOU! Still practical… just with a little more personality.

@Tuckernuck @Shopbop

A little golf style moment 💚💛

I used to think getting dressed “for an activity” meant buying a whole separate wardrobe.

Now I’m much more interested in pieces that feel like me… things I can wear, rewear, and style in different ways.

A little color, a classic silhouette, and one unexpected detail (like a bright cardigan) can make even a simple outfit feel personal.

My favorite wardrobes aren’t the ones with the most clothes- they’re the ones where everything feels like it belongs.

Save this for your next “what do I wear?” moment 🤍

#LTKootd #LTKActive

POV: you stopped saving the good clothes for “someday” or “vacation” ☀️

I’m trying to be better about actually wearing the things I love — the bright colors, the playful pieces, the swimsuits that make me feel like summer.

Because the best wardrobe isn’t the one that looks perfect hanging in your closet… it’s the one that gets worn while you’re actually living life & making memories. So, I’m wearing my @hunzag swimsuit just to hang out by our pool & eat popsicles with my kids 😎

Current summer uniform:
swimsuit + pareo + sunglasses + something cold to eat 🍦

Saving this season of life — and this color combination — for later. 💚🩵

#LTKootd #LTKmomlife #LTKSwim

2 weeks into summer & we’re already in the “what day is it?” & “I’m bored” by 10am phase but I love it all the same ❤️

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKmomlife #LTKKids

My absolute favorite place to shop for boys clothing & the only clothes Joseph actually requests! They wear well, wash well, & the prices are good! Great for vacation, even better for real life!

#LTKmomlife #LTKKids #LTKSaleAlert

I can’t believe this was only 2 weeks ago! I’m still catching up from all the crazy last month (ok, more than that) of school stuff & trying to tell my brain it’s no longer being chased by a bear 🤣 So much fun packed into such a short time! This girl is moving on to middle school 🩷

(Dress is old but I linked a few favorites on sale!)

#LTKmomlife #LTKstorytime #LTKootd

We love these pool floats so much! We bought a similar set last year & they lasted great all summer- we don’t ever put our floats away so they’re constantly exposed to the elements & these held up so well!

Prime Day, vacation

#LTKSeasonal #LTKHome #LTKSwim

My & Amelia’s favorite scalp scrub is on sale for Amazon Prime Day! We use in in place of shampoo once or twice a week & it makes your hair feel so clean & look super shiny!

#LTKselfcare #LTKBeauty #LTKSaleAlert

Just got this cute 100% cotton ruffle top from @abercrombie & it fits perfectly! The reviews said it was too cropped but this is my regular size & these are not high waisted shorts so I think it’s just the right length! It’s currently on sale & I love it! Wear it with everything from poplin pants to cute linen shorts or even with a pareo!

Summer, travel, vacation style, natural material

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKootd #LTKSeasonal

Happy Father’s Day to the guy who makes everything more fun! To our resident math homework expert, builder of whatever we draw up, fixer of whatever breaks, bug catcher, pool boy, dreamer of the biggest dreams, master crafter, visionary landscaper, very own in-house life of the party, totally objective life coach (🤪), golf instructor extraordinaire, dog trainer, favorite adventurer & game player, & so much more… we hope you had the best day spending it with us! I agree with J- it was a 20/10 day. And even though you like to listen to Facebook videos on full volume & take more than a couple of weeks to put away your laundry, I hope we get to keep you around forever & ever. We love you a whole lot, Joe, & you make life a thousand times more fun. I don’t know how I got so lucky but I’m so happy I did 🩷

A roundup of the best 4th of July (but really, all summer long) red, white, & blue pieces! @hillhousehome @Tuckernuck @lakepajamas @vineyardvines @Madewell

#LTKSeasonal #LTKTravel #LTKootd

This black embroidered lace maxi dress is the perfect where anywhere, dress up or dress down dress. I’m always looking for 100% cotton dresses in the summer & this one is so beautiful!

Summer vacation, date night, travel

#LTKootd #LTKgrwm #LTKSeasonal

These are a few of my favorite (skincare) things… some are new (like this @saltyface tanning face lotion) & some are old (I’ve been using this @counterbeautyofficial vitamin c serum for over 5 years!) and I truly love & use them all every day! They’re all considered clean AND they’re actually effective! 🫧✨🩷
