Happy Monday friends! We had a great Father’s Day weekend and guess what my hubby got? We surprised him with the bag he raved about and put a pack of socks inside! I was sure he’d have a clue that that was what we were getting him, but he was genuinely surprised, and very happy with that gift. I know y’all enjoyed hearing from him and getting helpful tips for Father’s Day gifts, so I’ll be bringing him back next month to share his picks for the big Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! I can’t believe it’s almost here! #ChristmasinJuly
Today’s post is all about one of my favorite wardrobe pieces to run around in and be ultra comfortable. Jogger pants are like pajamas that are acceptable to wear outdoors, but just as cozy! #winwin
You can wear them to the gym, but I prefer them as casual wear topped with a relaxed tank or tee. I’ve had this u-neck tank for years in several color and it’s held up great. It’s European sizing and I sized up to US4 for a more relaxed fit, but US2 would work for a more fitted look.
This pair of joggers come in navy too and feel so silky against your skin. The wide waistband is ultra comfortable and the pockets zip closed, a cute touch.
I always keep my favorite jean jacket in the car because you never know when you’ll need it. We pop into the bookstore often and it’s always freezing in there! I’m always prepared because I can just throw on my jacket and it goes with almost everything!
I’ve always loved browsing bookstores in different cities too (nerd, I know)! I love that my kids enjoy it now too and our Barns & Noble has a toy train and legos that James used to love as a toddler and now Jordan plays with. Seeing James develop a love of reading (he’s on book #4 of the Wimpy Kid series now) warms my heart!
It took me awhile to find sneakers that were durable, comfortable and the perfect shade of pink. These Adidas are all that, but had me puzzled over how to tie them. A typical bow-tie is how I tie most sneakers, but I liked how these shoes look more streamlined with the laces tucked in.
I re-tied the laces so that they ended up facing into the shoe and then folded them into a small bundle and tucked them inside.
Isn’t it nice to run around in something you can feel so relaxed in?!
The good thing about a long weekend is that we’re already halfway to the next weekend! But long weekends can also wear you out, so the next weekend can’t come…
Hi friends! I’m back today with another ‘wear now’ from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. This one might be stretching it a bit for running around town in Houston right now, not that we’re doing much running around because it’s SO hot and humid, but if you work in an air conditioned office, you can definitely get away with wearing this lightweight sweater tank now. It’s really soft and I’m crazy for this light pink, but it also comes in black, grey and ivory.
Thank you to Nordstrom and ShopStyle for sponsoring today’s post! Happy Friday friends! It’s been a week of celebrations over here! Monday was Jordan’s birthday and Wednesday was mine! Thank you…
Ooh la la friends! We’re halfway through this week and nearly halfway through the year, which happens to be good news for us fashion lovers because the Nordstrom Half Yearly…
Happy hump day friends! It’s been a busy week here since finishing up my bikini contest last weekend. It was a long day and I’m working on a detailed recap…
Well, it’s been a hot minute since he’s made an appearance around here, so it’s time to bring back my cutie-pie hubby to help us ladies with our Father’s Day…

Loving this look! And getting so excited about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 🙂
Love this whole entire ensemble. Looks so comfy yet doesn’t sacrifice style. Until my leg is healed, I’m wearing dresses all summer because I can’t get pants over my leg yet, but I can’t wait until the fall when I’m back in pants again! I especially love the pink sneakers with an army green pant. And I love your favorite jean jacket. The time, attention, care & thoughtfulness that goes into every one of your posts is so apparent. Thank you so much for such a fun daily read!

I bet you’ll be ready for some pants for sure! But at least it’s summer where there are so many cute dresses out now!
So, tell us how you are tying the sneakers with the laces tucked in, or is that how they come?
I was wondering that too!
Great question! I just updated the post with the directions and a close up photo of the shoe so you could see better!
How do you tie the laces? My attempts are terrible. Please share

Love your lipstick!
Thank you Aaryn! I’m so happy for you!!! Best thing I’ve seen today!
I’m not much of a fan of casual outfits, but I must say this one looks amazing. Now I kinda want those joggers for myself! hahah =)
