Coral, Cobalt and Turquoise


A lot of my look lately have been ultra casual.  This is what I live in.  I am a stay at home mom of 4 boys.  As much as I love to get dressed up in heels and lipstick, the truth of the matter is that neither of those is practical for my life.  I do however love to dress up casual.
This is probably why I love to play with color so much.  It can add fun to an otherwise super plain outfit.  Throw in a few accessories and you are golden.
I am posting this from Phoenix.  I can't even tell you when the last time is that I have done so much in such a little time.  This trip has definitely been the boys' (and Joshs') dream come true.  We have gone 4-wheeling, horseback riding, to a rodeo, swimming twice, fishing, to a parade, played so many fun games,seen fireworks,  made fun crafts and eaten amazing food.  That was all in 2 days...Tomorrow the only plan we have is to go to the diamondbacks baseball game tomorrow night so we will be exploring Phoenix during the day (any good suggestions from those who live in AZ?)

My husband has this idea of retiring in Phoenix, Arizona and this year we thought of going there to see aka to convince me ;).. we're going in October if all go as plan :) Love this outfit. I finally found a pair of shorts that is 'flattering' and long enough for me!

  18. I love the color combination! I have been wanting that Jcrew necklace for quite some time now. I actually found another version of it on a Website called YSL Couture for only $50, I might have to buy it, just can't decide which color... Hmm, decisions decisions...
