jean jacket, shorts, tank topWhile driving home from teaching Lyla’s dance class at the studio everything is quiet for at least five minutes. Nobody has said a single word, but Lyla pipes up, “Daddy, did you say you want ice cream?” Nate and I die laughing, but sadly we didn’t have time to stop and get the girl ice cream. We had to get home, so Nate could go to work. However, you can’t blame the girl for trying. She came up with a plan that under any other circumstance would have earned her a dish of ice cream. jean jacket, shorts, tank topThe Scoop

purple, tanktop, skirt, sandalsI can’t wait for cooler weather. Lucky me that Thursday and Friday of last week the weather cooled off a bit. It was a easily tolerable 75 degrees out. That slight change in weather had me thinking fall, and I wanted to style a dress I’ve worn numerous times but has yet to make its way onto the blog. Don’t ask me why, sometimes these things just happen for unexplainable reasons. It just reminds me of fall, and a bit like camouflage the more I think about it. I suppose that means fall to me too?!?purple, tanktop, skirt, sandals

I find it funny that the first time this dress is posted here it isn’t even worn as a dress. Well, such is life when you try to make the most out of your closet instead of wearing things as they are. By the way, this dress is anotherĀ maternity piece worn even when not pregnant.

Lyla is a big fan of color! When she picked the tank top she told me “you need a little pink mom.” All together this is a comfy, end of summer outfit. Two thumbs up Lyla!pink. grey, blue, cropped shirt, shorts, sandalspink. grey, blue, cropped shirt, shorts, sandals

Simply perfect for blistering summer weather. Which by the way, with kids going back to school shouldn’t we be getting some cooler almost fall like weather? I would love to wear a new pair of jeans I’ve got hanging in my closet.rings, chevron rings, chevron, pink nail polishtank top, trapeze top, shorts, cutoffs, sandalsNow to turn things around for a second. I have to say that a baby in a t-shirt and cloth diaper is probably the cutest thing I’ve seen all summer. I really like this particular robot cover from Rumparooz.tank top, trapeze top, shorts, cutoffs, sandals

I love this skirt I got from the children’s section of Target. However, now it is a little big and must be worn with a belt. The problem is it doesn’t have any belt loops. To make it work for me I used this rope belt I got from Target to make the skirt kind of a paper bag style. May not look the greatest, but it worked. I didn’t loose my skirt. I call that a win!
