Spring Fling

Am I the only one who is living for spring?!  I know, I know we haven't even seen the worst of winter and I am dreaming of sandy beaches and sunshine.  I need a tan, a frozen drink and a lounge chair stat! 

Unfortunately I don't think that is going to be happening anytime soon so in the mean time I have been searching for fun, new pieces to add to my spring wardrobe.  Lately I have been hunkered down behind my computer looking for white jeans, maxi dresses and new purses to ring in spring!  Here are a few of my favorites so far.

1.  Alice and Olivia Wide Leg Pant

How adorable are these green wide leg pants?!  I am dying to wear them with a white blouse and platform heels.  I think having these pants would make going to work so much more bearable :)



2.  Citizens of Humanity Mandy Floral Roll Up Jeans

These may not be your cup of tea but as a child of the 80s I LOVE THEM!!  I don't know if I will roll them up or not but I can't wait to wear them with a t-shirt and some cute flats. 






3.  Polka Dot Anorak

I will be totally ready for April showers in this amazingly cute rain jacket!!  I love absolutely everything about it and cannot wait for the chance to wear it.





4.  Longchamp Metallic Shoulder Bag

I am obsessed with this gorgeous bag!  I love the metallic take on an old classic and I love how functional it is at the same time.  This will be my go to bag for spring.


5.  Black Maxi Dress

I love this simple black maxi dress (and the belt comes with it)!  It is the perfect thing to throw in your bag for a wedding, trip to the beach or just a weekend getaway. 



5.  Colorful Bib Necklace

I am seriously coveting this beautiful bib necklace for spring!  I feel like it would go with everything and I would wear it all the time.  I love how big and playful it is!



6.  Old School Swimsuit

I love, love the vintage feel of this great suit!  I am not sure about the tan lines just yet :) but it is extremely flattering and makes me think of old Hollywood glam.




7.  Must Have Wedges

I love, love these beautiful and color wedges!  I love that they look like a pointy toe heel from the front but have the comfort of a wedge.  These are a must have for my spring wardrobe!

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleed...

I'm Jealous Of My Husband

I have to be honest I almost didn't publish this post.  This is a real and raw post.  I finally hit publish because I figured I couldn't be the only one feeling this way. I will tell you I didn't know I was jealous of Matt at first.  I knew I was angry, resentful, overwhelmed and afraid.  As a wife and mother the to do list seems never ending.  Whether you work or not being a mother is one of the hardest jobs, if not the hardest job on the planet.   Matt and I are blessed to both have fulfilling careers and therefore we have someone who helps us 5 days a week.   For a long time I felt bad for being a working mother.  I've made my peace with that.  I am now thankful instead of guilty.  It was a long road but I'm in a good place with it.  I'm not saying that from time to time I don't wrestle with working and being mother but on the whole I am comfortable with my choice.   So when these feelings started c...

A Sad Season

I have to tell you that these past few months and perhaps this year have been hard and yes sad.  My mother told me when we were talking about it that I was experiencing "a sad season" and I have to agree. Now this doesn't mean that everything has been awful, sad and terrible.  I haven't been in bed for weeks at a time with the covers over my head watching trash tv.  Instead I feel like it has been one of those times were the hits just keep on coming.  The bad news just keeps rolling in like ocean waves.  It has been a time of tremendous loss and sadness.  The events that have occurred aren't the same but it felt like every time I would get my ahead above water something else would happen.   It has been difficult because there are happy times mixed in to all of the sad.  In those times of happiness I have genuinely tried to be in the moment but my heart wasn't in the right place.  My heart has not felt happy and there has been an undercurr...
