4th of July Outfit Inspiration

I love a good all-American outfit. For the 4th of July, I don't like to go for the cliche t-shirt with an American flag on it. I love to get a little creative with the stars and stripes...and the red, white and blue. Here are some inspiring 4th of July outfits to help you decide what to wear for your long, holiday weekend:

Seriously? That top is everything. Some Daisy Dukes and some cowboy boots, well, to boot. Perfect and totally All-American.

This is fun...play up a navy and white polka-dot anything with a pop of red. Love this.

Tie-dye is perfect, especially in red, white and blue! It looks like fireworks!

Hope y'all have some great 4th of July plans this weekend and that you have a safe and fun time!

Thoughts For Thursday: Pigtails and Splurges

We're almost to the weekend! I swear this week has been draaaagging. I've been up at 4am each day, so maybe it's just that the days seem longer when I do that. I'm back to my Body Beast workouts. I really need to keep with it this time because when I'm doing it, I do love it. I just seem to find a day or two where I fail to get out of bed and then it just throws me all off.

I've also been trying to run with this little girl every evening. We had a storm the night before last so I missed that evening. I got her hair into it's first set of pigtails this week too! I seriously die. I didn't realize she could actually GET any cuter...but I was wrong.

I made some pretty random purchases this week. My sweet friend picked up an awesome pair of palazzo pants at Buckle when we were shopping a couple months ago and ever since then, I've sort of been aching for a pair. They just look so comfy {especially for a mom!} and they can easily be dressed up for a nice night out, or down for hanging out at home or the beach. I ran a search late at night {when my inhibitions are at their lowest} and found these.

They're a bit "loud", but paired with a white tank and a classy necklace, I think they will be adorable. I love Aztec prints and pink, so this is a win-win. I'm glad I've finally come around to palazzo pants! What do you think of palazzo pants?

This top was a deal at $19.99. Saw a blogger post about it and it just looked like something I would wear...so I will. I try not to just randomly purchase in that way, but at under $20, it's nothing I'll feel guilty about later. They also have it in white or black, but I feel the blush has a sweet and romantic look to it.

Anyway, that's my splurging for the week.

The first week of summer break has been good...the boys are loving Karate camp...Breckin even broke his first board! He was so stoked about it. Farrah is still at her normal daycare. It's always summer when I wish I wasn't a working mom because I'd love to have this time with them and go to the pool, beach and parks all week. I am definitely aiming to get to the beach every weekend, weather permitting. So far, so good.

Have a great remainder of the week!

Chic Crochet

This is a summer look that I think is cute, but easily thrown together. You look like you didn't try to hard - because you didn't! I love that it's relaxed and comfortable, but chic. I'd go to a beach bonfire or Coachella like this if I still lived in SoCal. I got this top from Buckle last month and I absolutely adore it. I can wear it so many ways with so many things.

Here, it is simply paired with a black tank top and jean shorts...I think the Minnetonka moccasin boots make it even more Boho.

Colorfully Boho

This top was a lucky find at my local Marshall's. It's so colorful and fun...flowy and definitely has a Boho vibe to it. I've worn it a few different ways. I love to bring out the pops of pink with my Kate Spade bag and even sometimes my pink Valentino rockstud pumps! But I'm very in love with my Vince Camuto heels from Nordstrom right now, and they are so versatile for summer outfits.

Thoughts For Thursday / Floral Romper

I'm trying to get back in the game of posting outfits on the blog again...so I coerced my son into helping me get some pictures taken {with my iPhone, I don't dare trust him with my DSLR yet!} by bribing him with some extra computer time.

I had never owned a romper before this one {unless you count as a baby/toddler}, but they seem to be all the rage. When I saw this one, I thought it was super cute. It actually appears more like a dress than a romper, which I like. It will be great for summer nights and cocktails.

I paired it with the Vince Camuto 'Kamella' heels I purchased during Nordstrom's Half-Yearly sale {still going on!} last week. {They arrived pretty dang fast!} They no longer have them in natural, but they still have them in black and pink.
