Breezy Springtime Outfit

An Outfit for the Ruffle Lovers

We've been having some really beautiful weather lately in the Golden Isles. This year, we're actually getting a spring where we can enjoy 70 degree temps with no humidity! Last week, Kelli and I decided it was too pretty to be working indoors, so we headed to Sea Island to shoot outdoors! This time of year I am all about dresses and skirts -- the more flowy the better! I love that they are easy, feminine and just the epitome of spring. Two of my favorite trends right now are ruffles and wraps. I recently wore this periwinkle blue Ruffle Wrap Skirt on our trip to The Breakers Palm Beach. It's a mid-length skirt, making it super easy to style up or down. I paired it with my white Club Monaco ruffle shirt. You can never have too many crisp white tops.…

Polka Dot Punch

Fun And Festive Mocktail For the Kids To Enjoy

With all of the springtime dinner parties, backyard BBQ's, and brunches, there are endless cocktails to enjoy. I love featuring some of my favorite fun cocktails! However, when it comes to family events, it's fun to have a festive drink that is also kid-friendly! We teamed up with Rachel, from Handmade Charlotte, to create this colorful Polka Dot Punch. It's super easy to make, and we know the kiddos will feel extra special the next time you serve it at your home. All you need is strawberry juice, Cran-Raspberry La Croix Sparking Water, and round ice cube trays. Fill the round ice cube trays with strawberry juice, place them in the freezer and allow them to freeze completely. Pop out the frozen cubes and place a few in each glass. Pour sparking water over…

Everyday, I'm grateful to live in the Golden Isles. It's the best place to come home to after traveling because of the laid-back lifestyle, good restaurants and great shopping! One of my go-to shops on the Island is the Cloister Collection. It's just a short bike ride from my home -- making it super convenient to pop by and refresh my wardrobe!

A Mother’s Day Inspired Gathering

Celebrate Mother's Day with Oyster Bay Wines

Every Mother's Day I'm on the hunt for a meaningful gift that's more than the traditional bouquet of flowers. Since my mom lives out of town, I search for gifts that are easy to ship and look beautiful when they arrive. This year, I invited a few of my friends over to assemble gift boxes for our moms. We shared stories of our childhood days over a few glasses of Sauvignon Blanc from Oyster Bay. It was such a fun evening and the Oyster Bay Wine was the perfect addition to our evening! In the evenings, we have plenty of shade in our yard, so we moved my pecky cypress table from my office to the front yard! Luckily my husband wasn't home yet to wonder what we were dreaming up. While the Sauvignon Blanc (one…

Craft Series with Handmade Charlotte: Wish Bags

Spread A Little Cheer to Loved Ones

I'm all about lifting up others and finding reasons to celebrate. I think every now and then you have to find impromptu ways to spread a little cheer. As you know, I've been teaming up with Rachel from Handmade Charlotte and she has shared with us this fun idea to bring a little joy to loved ones. And let's face it, candy is always a good idea! We found these cute mini paper bags, you can find them at Michaels. Then, using colorful mini-letter stamps, write out either a name or saying. Personalizing the bags with a name is a great idea, but I also really enjoyed the ones with sayings such as sparkle, cheer, celebrate, or love. Depending on the occasion you can really write anything you want, like Happy Birthday or Congratulations. We then…
