Brunch Attire

Hi everyone! Not too much has happened since I was out of school for the entire week (!!) other than my official self-diagnosis of extreme cabin fever. Even with the streets plowed it's been a bit of a struggle to get out of the house so when the snow finally began to melt I practically jumped at the opportunity to take a few pictures outside before heading out to brunch with some friends. Here they are!

{Summer Casual}

Happy Sunday y'all! So far summer has been pretty good to me, and it's only been 3 days. I am so excited for what's in store and can't wait to share it here on the blog! Here's a quick peek into what I might wear for a casual summer day, enjoy! xx

{Lilly x Target}

All I have to say about Lilly for Target is wow. Oh my god, the stories I've heard are insane. One of my friends told me that she had to physically shove someone within 5 minutes of the store's opening just to get the pants she wanted. And so, just like any other blogger, I feel the need to share my Target Lilly story. So here goes.

We sort of missed Lilly for Target.  On the nineteenth, I had a regatta (#crewislife) and had to drive all the way up to Philadelphia and back. So my mom and I hadn't really focused on it until around 7 AM when we both freaked out because we had forgotten. My mom went on the Target website, only to discover that everything on site was either sold out, or crashing due to the insane amount of people trying to order online. It was then that we thought we would never see Lilly x Target again. 

But, the next day my mom, (who definitely wins mom of the year by the end of this story) went to four different Targets to find what was left over or had been returned. And she found a phone case, some candle holders, and two headbands! So she kept going. From last Sunday to today, my mother has probably been to Target at least 15 times. In the past five days. If that's not dedication then I don't know what is. And all of her efforts have paid off! 

In summation, if I had to take something meaningful away from this absolutely crazy experience, it's that patience does in fact pay off. We weren't the first people in the store, fighting for that last Lilly flip-flop; but we still managed to get an amazing haul! Here are a few things that  I got! (not everything I got is pictured)

{Stepping into Spring}

I'd like to put the right foot forward when it comes time to talk about spring shoes. Ha ha ha, so punny. Anyway, despite my major allergies, Spring is pretty great. Here in Maryland, the winter lasts long into March so when warmer weather finally rolls around and with it bright, beautiful colors, everyone in the state is pretty grateful, this year included! 

Now while a lot of people tend to jump right into summer clothes, I try to ease myself into it.  So I make a few changes here and there, and mainly focus on bringing brighter colors into rotation. But hey, what's Spring without a few new things? Which is where new shoes become important. 

Now I'm not the biggest fan of open-toed shoes. My mom loves to tell the story about the time in eighth grade that I wore sneakers to the beach in St. Thomas because I hated flip flops so much. But, as I've gotten older, I've become a bit more open minded, and do wear sandals pretty frequently in the summer. But even having said that, I try to remain in closed-toed shoes for as long as possible

(whoops.) Here are a few that I really like for Spring!
