Hey friends! Hope you’re all doing well and you enjoyed your Fourth of July! My crew and I decided to throw a Fourth of July brunch and then Dave and I grilled out that evening and watched Stranger Things! Anyone else love Stranger Things??! It was definitely a fun fourth!
Even though we’ve entered July, I wanted to share some of my favorite items and some fun times from June!
Dad Shoes
I wasn’t quite sure if I’d like this new fashion trend on myself, or if I would even be able to find a pair of Dad’s shoes. But I decided to give it a go and search in some of my favorite places– thrift stores, Burlington, and TJMaxx. I ended up finding some Fila brand Dad shoes at Burlington and I absolutely love them! I’ve been styling them with different dresses and with my bike shorts.



Bike Shorts
This was another trend I wanted to try! I found my Bayleaf bike shorts on Amazon and they have quickly become one of my favorite items to wear! They’re so comfy, can be styled in multiple ways, and suck you in in all the right places!


Bloggers Retreat in KC
My friend, Jessica and I planned a fun bloggers and creatives trip in Kansas City the first weekend of June. It was a fun weekend of exploring new places I hadn’t been to in Kansas City and getting to meet some other bloggers I’ve followed on IG for some time. Some of my favorite moments from the weekend were shopping at the Warehouse District and enjoying a drink at TikiKat, a relaxed, island-inspired hideaway in Westport.






Myrtle Beach Family Vacay
Dave and I had been planning this trip with all his siblings and their families for a year and it was finally here! We always have a great time with his family, but I seriously had no idea just how much fun we would have! It was a blast of a week! First- I just love Dave’s family and being able to have a whole week with them at a gorgeous place, with no distractions, was seriously amazing! Second- I absolutely love the beach and Myrtle Beach is soooo pretty! My favorite moments were going to the beach in the morning to collect sea shells with my sis in law, Jen and her husband, Rick and enjoying the beautiful sunsets in the evenings with the family. Third- We got to stay at the coolest, biggest beach house only 2 min walk away from the beach. This beautiful 3 story house included a backyard with a pool, 6 bedrooms with bathrooms attached, a family room, dinning area, and kitchen and had multiple balconies. I loved being able to wake up each morning and drink my coffee and/ or do my workouts overlooking the beautiful beach from those balconies.











Striped Pj’s
I love matching pj sets and this one was perfect for summertime. It is light weight and super cute! And to top it off, I got for under $20 from JCPenney.
