Baby Clothes with H&M

IMG_1163

Baby clothes are my favorite. Spring baby clothes are just so adorable and I am having way too much fun looking and shopping them. H&M has easily become my favorite place to shop for Andrew's clothes. Not only are the items so affordable, but the quality is SO nice! I have rounded up some adorable pieces for both baby girls and boys. All  items are under $15!

Mother’s Day Gift Guide

Mother's Day

Mother's Day is coming up so soon! It is only two weeks away, which I cannot even believe! Even though we are quarantined, I feel like these months are flying by. Mother's Day may be a little different this year for families, but it is still so important that you celebrate your moms, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, and friends. You can celebrate these women by sending cards, giving gifts, or sending a sweet message.

This is my first Mother's Day as a mommy and I am so excited! I remember last year on Mother's Day feeling so sentimental and grateful for all the moms that I know especially my mom, my mother in law, and my grandma. I felt in awe of what a mother does for her family. My mom has been there for me through every high and low life has brought and I just wanted her to know how grateful I am (don't worry, I feel this way on Father's Day too for my Dad!) Little did I know I was already pregnant and on my way to becoming a mommy too! This year, since we are quarantined, we won't get to attend church and celebrate with a lunch after, but I am hopeful we can maybe have a picnic, or go on a walk, or just do something to see our moms! (trying my best to look at things positively and focus on what we can do, not what we can't do)

If you are Mom, know that you are a rockstar. You are strong, you are powerful, and you deserve all the thanks and hugs in the world! Hopefully your sweet family can spoil you to thank you for the mother that you are!

Below are some gifts that you can order easily online if you need to shop for the moms in your life, or if you want to send a link to your husband letting him know Mother's Day is coming up:)! Haha! All items I am linking are under $50!

How I like to Gift

For Mother's Day, I typically like to do something sentimental, like a picture frame and a photo. Then, I add in a candle or a fragrance. Lastly, I add in something that I know they will enjoy like a piece of jewelry or something for the home. I hope this was helpful. I would love to hear how you are celebrating Mother's Day this year and what you are gifting! Leave a comment below :)!

Favorite Perfumes with the Sephora Sale

IMG_2294

IMG_2293

Perfume

I love a good perfume. I notoriously buy the big perfume sets from Sephora where you get a voucher to trade in for a full size perfume basically every Sephora Sale! I keep a bag full of mini perfumes in my dresser in case I ever want to mix it up or mix scents together! One of my girlfriends taught me about mixing scents together and it is the best thing ever. So give me all the minis!

I love a lot of perfumes but I have two absolute favorites that I wear daily. I switch it up constantly so I like to have a bottle of both. Whenever I wear either of these perfumes, I get so many compliments and the smell lasts all day long!

Chanel COCO mademoiselle

If you ever want to invest in one scent, this is it. It is the best perfume ever, in my opinion! I originally discovered this perfume when my Mother in law was wearing it and noticed the smell lasted so long! The smell is very elegant and beautiful. Also, the packaging on it is stunning. One spray of this perfume goes a very long way so the bottle will last a long time! I highly recommend buying this perfume on sale as it is a huge splurge. It would be a great Mother's Day gift!

dolce&gabbana dolce garden

This perfume. Oh my gosh. The smell is sweet, floral, and just beautiful! It is a scent I can never get tired of. I used to wear Light Blue, and received this as a sample from Sephora. I immediately switched over from Light Blue to this. It's so beautiful and girly and the sweet smell to it makes it even better. I think once you smell this you will love it! The scent is also very long lasting.

Other favorites i have tried

Perfume can be pricey so I think the best time to buy it is during a sale. It also makes a wonderful gift. All of the perfumes that I have linked smell so good and are long lasting!

Abercrombie & Fitch Sale

You guys... Abercrombie & Fitch has SHOCKED ME! They have SUCH good things right now! I placed a huge order and truly could not get over how much I loved every single piece and the quality is amazing. I should preface this by letting you all know that I worked at Abercrombie & Fitch for years in Highschool and College breaks! I never wanted to buy their clothes and only bought what I needed to wear to work. OMG. Things have changed, I think I will be adding them to my favorite store list and I am 26 YEARS OLD! My college self would be laughing at me right now.

I am sharing some pictures below of the items I purchased. I got a few tops that are easy to wear around the house and can be worn when quarantine is over! I also got a super cute pair of knit shorts that can be worn dressed up or down. I didn't order any of their jeans but was talking to one of my girlfriends yesterday and she just got in a pair from them and said they were the best jeans ever. Now I am convinced...I need to order some! I will link up some that I think are so cute.

Nordstrom Sale: Prices Dropped!

IMG_2449-1

I am throwing together this blog post so quickly because I want to share the best items from the Nordstrom spring sale! The prices of so many pieces just dropped big time- I mean lower than I would ever expect some of these items to go. Things are going very fast though, so if there is something you have had your eye on, now would be the time to grab it. This gorgeous top from the photo is on sale now for $26 and it is so beautiful in person. I wish I could wear it all the time! I am going to break down my favorites into categories starting with clothes. Click on any of the items to shop the links directly.

What to Buy

I am noticing a ton of dresses are marked down 60-70% off, I guess because we don't have many places to wear them! My Easter dress is marked down to only $35 and it is an incredible dress- it's so flattering and the quality is amazing. To me, this sale is a great time to purchase things to wear later on, like dresses (only if you can!) because I can't imagine prices going lower. This would also be a great time for new sneakers if you have been needing a new pair with all your walks! These Adidas are marked down to $38! If you are searching for gifts for Mother's Day this is also a great time to spoil your mom! This necklace is gorgeous and the price is amazing!

If you snag any great deals from this sale, leave a comment below to let me know!

FOREVER 21 SALE

You guys know I love me some Forever 21. It is one of my favorite places to shop and I am almost 27?! I had a minor panic when I heard they were thinking of closing!

They are offering such a great promo right now so I wanted to share some of my favorite pieces (still in stock) that I have in my own closet! The sale they are running is 30% off your order of $85 or more (so basically if you spend $85 you will get it for about $60 and let me tell you- you can get a LOT from them for this!). SUCH A GOOD SALE! I am not sure how long the sale is running but their items do go quickly. Use code Refresh30.

What to shop for?

I love love love when Sephora has sales. They only happen a few times a year so I specifically wait to buy larger products or something I have been wanting to experiment with during these sales. Since we are all during this time, it would be a great idea to ramp up your skin care routine! We have the time so why not?! I have been trying a few new skincare items that will be included in the sale and they are GOOD (and affordable)! I will share these in a little.

I am going to share what is in my makeup bag that I use everyday and that I truly love. I will also share some items I am hoping to get and try because I have had my eye on them.

First up, Skincare

For the last two weeks I have started using the Tatcha Deep Cleanse Exfoliating Cleanser and the Water Cream. These make my skin feel incredible. I use them each morning! I bought the mini sizes to see if I liked them and I love them.

I have also started using The Ordinary "No-Brainer" set. I actually only use two of the products right now (one I can't use because I am breastfeeding), but I am obsessed with the way they make my skin feel. I can see a significant difference in my skin. It looks brighter and more even tone- which is huge for me because I have awful acne scars. This set is only $29 and it is amazing. I can't wait to try more from this brand!

Next, what is in my make-up bag that i love

Okay all of the products I am going to share now are products I use every single day. I can do my makeup in less than 15 minutes now and on the floor anywhere in my house (wherever I am with Andrew) thanks to these holy grail products.

Foundation- I am obsessed with this Hourglass foundation stick. It goes on so easily and blends perfectly with a damp beauty blender. I love the texture and the coverage it gives my skin. It also feels SO lightweight on my face! I wear the color Linen.

Color Corrector- This is not something that is necessary in your make-up routine but I really need it. It is a color corrector that helps take away dark under eye circles. I apply a little of this under my eyes and use a damp beauty blender to blend it all in. Then, I apply my concealer. It is amazing. I can tell a difference if I don't use it! I wear the color fair.

Concealer- I must be on an Hourglass kick becauses I am also equally obsessed with the concealer! This stuff does the WORK you want a concealer to do. I have dark circles with my crazy sleep schedule now and this covers them so well. A little goes a lonnnnng way. I think this bottle will last me such a long time. I wear the color Birch.

Blush- I mentioned this a previous blog post, but this Nars Liquid Blush in the color Orgasm is so so beautiful. Don't be scared about it being liquid. It is so easy to dab into your skin and it blends beautifully. A little goes a very long way!

Bronzer & Highlighter- I have used this kit for months (I bought it during the Sephora sale in the fall) and I love it! It has beautiful colors for bronzer that blend so well and has the best highlighter ever. The highlighter can also be used for the inner corner of your eyes for a pop! I can't recommend this palette enough! It is a splurge but to buy during a sale is the best time. It does come in a mini, but the mini doesn't have the highlighter color that I love. You want the highlighter Cookie, which you can buy individually if you don't want the set.

Brows- I get so many questions about my brows and I have to tell you they are truly a mess without this product. I have used the Anastasia Brow Wiz in the color Taupe for years. I stock up when it is on sale. Nothing compares.

Lipstick- I have talked about this lipstick so many times and I am sure you hear everyone talking about! It is the Charlotte Tilbury lipstick in the color Kim KW. It is the best nude color ever. Again with this product, a little goes a long way!  I will be repurchasing during the sale because I have finally used up one whole stick! It is the only lipstick I ever use.

Perfume- This is a wonderful time to buy perfume. You usually cannot get these perfumes on sale any other time! I have two that I wear and love. I switch it up daily but love both so much. First, I love the Coco Chanel Mademoiselle. The smell is just beautiful and you only need one spray to last you the day. Next, I love Dolce and Gabbana in Dolce Garden. This scent is sweet and floral. Whenever I wear this I get so many compliments. It's so pretty!!

PRODUCTS I WANT TO TRY

I won't talk about any of these products because I personally have not tried them. I have heard and read great things about them and they have been on my brain! Let me know if you like to use any of them 🙂

Mommy & Me: Matching Your Baby!

IMG_1184
IMG_1173

Okay I am not embarrassed to admit that when I dress Andrew I think to myself, 'What do I have that can match him?' haha! It makes me so happy. Why?! Who knows. Today I am going to share a few outfits for both you and baby to match! I will share both girls and boys items! The boy items I will be sharing are mostly items that Andrew has. If you are like me, you may have some of the items for yourself already in the closet.

The first look is all blue and white items. I am obsessed with blue and white for spring so it is no surprise that I bought Andrew these adorable blue and white pull on pants! He is wearing size 4-6 months and I have to say how AMAZING they are! They roll at the side and fit him perfectly now, but I can also undo the button to make them longer as he grows! The waist is also pretty big and I was able to tie it tighter with the string. They are so stinking cute I could barely handle it. For me, I wore a frilly blue and white skirt (that is a great length) and a white off the shoulder top. You can shop both of our items through the links below.

IMG_1356

This next look is a springy casual look. I know we all are not going anywhere right now, but I have found it fun to put on real clothes for a little throughout the day  (I'm also obsessed with clothes) or to set the table and have an at home date night. For Andrew he has a tan and white striped shirt (too big for him because I bought for him to grow into) and these adorable tan little shorts! These shorts are just incredible because he will grow into them and they come in a pack of THREE! Yes please! For these pictures, I dressed Andrew in an all white set with a onesie underneath. This set was a gift and he looks like a little teacher in it! It is so so cute! I think it's a very gender neutral outfit. My outfit doesn't exactly match him, but it has similar colors so we can call that a match in my book! I love this blouse so much. It is so beautiful with the billowy sleeves and the print. The buttons down the front are so flattering. It looks great with high-waisted jeans but will also be perfect with shorts in the summer. I also found such adorable outfits for little girls to go with my outfit. You can shop all the items right below.

IMG_1376

So this is a look that you see us in almost every single day. I certainly wear this set once a week! I will link some of my favorite tie-dye options below. As for Andrew, his classic daily outfit is a onesie and sweet little joggers or leggings! Here he is wearing the adorable set from the photo above as well.

I hope you enjoyed this post! This was so fun for me to do so I will probably do more in the future as Andrew grows. Thank you for reading!

Affordable Loungewear

IMG_1120

Currently loving all the loungewear out there right now but only into the pieces that are affordable! I have been searching for the best loungewear that will last, look stylish, and wont' break the bank. Luckily I found many good options!

First up are these gorgeous tan joggers and short sleeved sweatshirt! The quality is amazing and each item is only $13. I will wear these pieces again and again!

IMG_1122

Next up are some very neutral pieces you can wear many different ways. Yay! Love to have pieces that are versatile in my closet. I love the look of these sweatshorts and think they would be so cute with either the henley bodysuit or the cami with a linen button down top. Add a layered necklace to dress it up.

IMG_1124

This is  another neutral look featuring the same joggers from earlier. These joggers would pair perfect with a white t-shirt, sneakers, and chunky layered necklace. Ready for the day or a nice long walk!

IMG_1121

This last look is more edgy but so fun and on trend. The colorful biker shorts would look so good with a white t-shirt and a layered necklace. With this outfit you're ready for a busy day of playing with kids, walking, and looking stylish the whole time.

10 Things to Do at Home for Easter

IMG_0843
IMG_0849
IMG_0907

Happy Wednesday friends! Is everyone having a good week? I hope wherever you are that the sun has been out and shining down on you. We are on our "spring break" so this week has been SO nice to take it easy, tackle tasks around the house, and get some content together!

Easter is this Sunday and I know Easter might look a little different for everyone this year. I have been so so excited for Easter this year because we have Andrew with us. We are going to try our best to make this Easter special even if we can't go anywhere. Growing up I will never forget everything my Mom did to make Easter so special and I cannot wait to begin some traditions and make it special for Andrew as well. Here are 10 fun and simple things you can do at home with your family this Easter!

1. Easter Brunch

I love the idea of a brunch on Easter morning. If you have kids, you can wake up, make a yummy breakfast, and allow the kids to open up their Easter baskets! Brunch doesn't have to be fancy it can consist of easy items you have in your kitchen! I'm thinking pancakes, fruit, eggs, bacon, and juice. YUM!

2. Watch Service Online

One thing that will be particularly hard for me this Easter is not being able to go to our Church for Easter. However, I am grateful to our church and many all around the Country for working hard to record their services and stream them online for us at home! Gather the family together, get comfy on the couch or bed and watch Easter service. Put the phones away and worship and pray together. Talk with your family about the meaning of Easter. If you need a service to watch here is a link to our Church, Purcellville Baptist.

3. Family Photos

It is always so special to get dressed up on Easter in fun spring outfits to celebrate. Let's keep doing this! Get your family dressed up, set up self timer on your phone and snap some family pics. Take photos throughout the day to capture new memories. You will be able to look back on this and be so thankful that you did! I already can't wait to put Andrew in his little Easter outfit!

4. Easter Lunch or Dinner

Depending on where you are, it might be hard to come by what you typically cook for Easter lunch or dinner. No worries! You can make any meal into an Easter meal. This year I am not going out to any stores, we have just been doing delivery and weren't able to get everything I would usually make. I remembered that Cracker Barrel does meals for holidays and I ordered one! I am super excited for a yummy Cracker Barrel meal for Easter this year. One of the best parts is that they deliver AND I do not have to cook! It might become a new family tradition around here!!

5. Picnic Dinner

If the weather is nice, how fun would it be to have a family picnic dinner or lunch!?! You don't have to go anywhere, you could do this on your deck, patio, backyard, or front yard! Grab a blanket and throw it down, use paper plates and just enjoy the fresh air. This sounds so fun to me! I think it is going to rain on Easter here, but maybe one day this week we can try for a picnic dinner.

IMG_0350

These next five ideas would be so fun to do with kids. You can also do them if you do not have kids! When Andrew is older I plan on doing these types of activities on Easter because they are similar to what we did growing up! I love keeping traditions alive while also creating your own.

6. Make Easter Cards

Grab any supplies you have around the house; markers, paper, scissors, glue, and crayons. Have each family member make a card for all the members of the family. In the card write or draw what you love about the person. This would be a great thing to share and read aloud as a family. I really think it would help lift spirits if anyone needed that! And how special is it to reflect on what we are grateful for. I love this activity because it doesn't require anything but thought.

7. Easter Egg Hunt

Of course you have to have an Easter Egg Hunt! These are the best! I haven't done one in ages, obviously because I am old! This year though I decided to get plastic eggs, fill them with jelly beans, and hide around the house. I will have Tyler carry Andrew around the house and find them. I am so excited for this! Parents where are your favorite places to hide eggs?! ALSO- if you do not have kids you can totally do a grown up version of this. You can stuff the plastic eggs with other items like cash, or gifts, or I have even seen airplane bottles used for this! haha!

8. Decorate a Cake

There is something special about holidays and baking. Am I right?! I love baking something sweet around the holidays! Decorating a cake could be such a fun and easy activity for the family and then you can enjoy it after! I will never forget growing up the Easter Bunny cake my mom used to make. It was the cutest thing ever and I remember she would work so hard on it! I have found a similar recipe you can use here. You can also just use any type of cake mix you have in the pantry. The main thing is you need to round cake pans. One pan will be for the bunny head and the other pan you will cut in half for the bunny ears.

9. Easter Bunny Popcorn

I am so excited to make this! This is super easy to do and hopefully you might already have all these items in your pantry! You will need popcorn (kettle or regular- up to you!), melting chocolate, and sprinkles. For this you will first pop your popcorn. Then, melt your chocolates. I am going to use white chocolate melts. Pour the popcorn on a piece of wax paper and drizzle melted chocolate on top! Then, add sprinkles to make it fun! So tasty and SO easy! Oooh if you have M&M's or pretzels you could also add to it for extra crunch.

10. Family Movie Time

Grab the popcorn you just made and find a movie for the family to watch. What a special way to end a special and family oriented day. Who else loves movies to end the weekend?!?! If you need a good movie for the family, Onward was just shared on Disney+ and it is so so good. Tear jerker for sure.

I hope you enjoy these ideas! What family traditions do you and your family have for Easter?! I would love to hear.

Leaving all photo details below if you are interested in shopping.

Jess 🙂
