Please excuse the awkward bathroom selfie. But these overalls! You guys! I am living in these. They are the most comfortable things ever and from all of the reviews I read before I got them, I think they flatter just about every body type.
You can find the link to them here. Remember that if you bring in any old pair of jeans to your local Madewell store, they will credit you $20 towards your denim purchase.
I'll admit I was a bit hesitant to take on this trend. You know, at the ripe old age of 36 and stuff. But seriously, I could wear these babies every day of the week so there is no shame in my overall game. Do yourself a favor and go try them on and while you're at it, kick your sweatpants to the back of your jammie drawer.
Also, I can't find these sandals on line but they had lots of them at my local Target. I am always looking for a pair of cognac heels, sandals, boots... these are so comfortable and they go with everything. It will only be a short amount of time before these bad boys start making their own tan line on my feet, I wear them so often.
So help me friends because I am in a season of some serious want. I feel like this happens at every turn of the season for me... I begin to crave new and different. But with the bathroom renovation underway and alllll of the small purchases that added up in a big way towards its completion, I am on a major spending freeze.
If I weren't, here is what I would be adding to my shopping cart this minute:
It's packable and perfect for covering up unwashed hair all summer long. I keep looking at it and reading reviews and I feel like it would get some serious usage in my clothing rotation.
New swimwear
My body is forever changing with pregnancies, postpartum recovery, and all that goes with that. I haven't even attempted to try on any of my old suits yet. But that hasn't stopped me from eyeing a few new ones online. I am loving the one piece trend.
I have a history of collecting cheap suits that only last for a season or two. But last year I bought my first nice suit at Anthropologie that looks almost identical to this one from Target.
If I were to splurge on something new for this summer, I would want something that gives me more coverage up top. I have been eyeing suits like this from albionfit. And I also love the look of this one from anthropologie but yikes! The price tag is a bit steep.
Anyone have any successes with some cute suits with coverage? I am all ears.
Lastly, I keep eyeing necklaces handmade by my new blogger crush. How pretty is this tassel necklace? I love a long necklace in gold. It goes with everything! All of her pieces are only available for a limited time so I keep eyeing them with all of the shopping constraint I can muster.
And finally, to top off this vain post of mine... hair! I am constantly going back and forth wondering if I should chop or not.
I really like this blunt cut with layers. Mine is a grown out a-line and I am ready to even it out.

And the great bangs debate. I have finally grown mine out but sometimes I miss them! Especially when I wear my hair up in a ponytail or a bun. I think bangs seem to make everything look more styled. Hmmmm.
Or do I wait and let my hair be a frizzy mess all summer and save my pennies for a good cut when I return to work in August. Decisions, decisions.
Today is the first day all week where we've had a hint of sunshine. It's making me that much more excited for the summer days to come!
Have a great weekend, everyone!
