exciting week around here.
so very busy working on an adorbs baby shower for a special gal in chi-town. wishing i lived closer so i could see it all come to life but sending some fun stuff their way. will give you a full report once it's done. . . good stuff. . . good stuff.
in the meantime, also busy packing for our family vacay. it's early this year and i can barely believe its right around the corner already. obvi, i can't show you everything we are packing for c & p, but i'd love to share a few goodies.
this week isn't exactly beach weather but hoping things improve by the time we arrive on-island. we are taking an early ferry so the plan is to have c & p sporting these adorbs smocked bathing suits by saturday afternoon.
we heart mermaids so much we bought the dresses, too! thought this style would be cute with a cardi over it just in case the weather doesn't cooperate.
shrimp & grits offers ridiculously cute smocked clothes and they are having a fab sale right now. check it out
here.
we also can't exactly go to nantucket without our whale dress, also from
S & G.
i can't give all of our wardrobe secrets away, what fun would that be? but i do have these very special dresses hanging in the closet. my plan was to save them for family portraits with
the fabulous miss meredith but i'm not sure i can leave them behind. i just won't let the children eat or drink {or play} when they have them on.
that's reasonable, right?
the uber-helpful lauren at
scuppers in old town helped me choose them.
wor-ship.
the fabric is a modern farmhouse toile and i'm picturing getting the girls' photo in front of the
bartlett's farm sign. too contrived? totes! do i care? totes don't give a hoot!
do you see the exposed zipper? omg, they are growing up before my very eyes. . .
okay, i'm somewhat inspired to pack now. . .
we will probably only be wearing jeans and sweatshirts if mother nature keeps up with this bs, but it won't matter, because it's still vacation, which means i will be intoxicated with my very fave people on the planet. {no, c & p won't be intoxicated, sillies!}
my other faves.
you know who you are.
OMG, i almost forgot to tell you what else i'm doing this week. i'm quite busy preparing to be the birthday girl. half-way to 70! {wahwahhhh}
i LOVE-love birthdays! even if they mean i'm getting old. still a chance to celebrate with awesome friends and fam. looking forward to all of that goodness.
