I swear by these white jeans and these distressed white jeans.

This Annabel Ingall Tote is my go-to daily purse.  I also love the new gold color for Summer.

I had the pleasure of meeting with a Smashbox make-up artist while I was in Ulta the other day. I have been on the hunt for a fun pink lipstick for Summer. She suggested the Electric Pink Matte.  At first I was scared this was too bright but it is the perfect pink for Summer if you want a pop of color. I like that it is matte and it stays on forever!  Highly recommend.

|| BR Cutaway Crepe Tank

Today Banana Republic is offering 50% off all sleeveless tops.  I am a sucker for this mustard color, although it also comes in olive green.  I love the style of this top.

Another beauty from Mara.  I really like the black and cream print and cut out detail.

Lastly one of my good friends and talented artist Sam Sidney has created some awesome drawings of Charleston, The Old Village and Sullivan's Island. The limited edition signed prints are available online at one of my favorite home stores Eclectic for a special pop-up shop this month.  These would make a really cool gift!

Scenes From Our Easter Weekend

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Weekend.  I know we certainly did.  It was a good weekend to reflect.  Part of our sermon on Sunday was discussing stressing over insignificant life events and what a waste of time that is and I have to agree,  it is so true.  Life is too short to worry about insignificant petty things.  I have so much to be thankful for and we could not have asked for a more beautiful Easter Sunday to thank God for all our blessings. 

On to our weekend:)

Thursday night, my last night in Charlotte we had a girls night out.  My birthday and my sisters' birthday fall exactly one week apart so we always try to celebrate together.  

We ate dinner at Roosters and it was delicious.  

Their mac and cheese is always a favorite and this time we tried the Duck Confeit Flatbread it was awesome.

I wore a birthday gift from my parents.

Joie Dress

Friday we got back in town in time for dinner with Daddy!  We decided to do our Taco Night since we missed it Wednesday.  Matt knew I was tired so he cooked and plated everything beautifully I might add:)  Such a treat.

For dessert we had strawberry pie.  Friends if you ever see a strawberry pie at Publix buy it!!  It is so freaking good!  Our whole family loves it!

Saturday was spent unpacking.  While in Charlotte I bought this cool vintage coffee table at Slate Interiors.  I just love her in our space.  I had been wanting a round two tier table so it was love at first site:)  Our azaleas are in full bloom so cut a few for our den.

Saturday night we went to party at our good friends.  They had an Easter Egg Hunt for the kids and a mini bottle hunt for the adults which I thought was hilarious and a pretty sweet idea. 

.  I wore my fringe top which I love!  My fringe obsession continues

Fringe Top

The Easter Bunny arrived Sunday Morning.  Sterling was super sneaky and got up before us and went thru his basket.  I found him in the den in all his glory:)

Frances was clearly half awake and not amused with her basket.

 Matt decided to test our their bubbles while feeding them Reeses Eggs:)

 Sugar high all day.

Sunday Sterling and I went to church together.  Frances Moon is teething like crazy and no fun for anyone to be around so Matt stayed home with her. I always love one on one time with Sterling.  It was a special Easter for us:)
