(Anniversary blooms…. slides (other Beek favorites))

I woke up on Friday morning and was saddened to hear the news of the shooting at Christ Church in New Zealand. As I went about my day, a quote that was read at our college graduation kept coming to mind…..

“Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world….”

I often feel relatively helpless when there are tragedies such as this, but this quote always reminds me that small acts truly add up…. and that soon we will have two little girls running around. If I want a better world for them, TJ + I must work to instill within them, and model for them, tolerance + acceptance of differences….

And so as we head into the week ahead thoughts of small, random acts of kindness come to mind…. opening the door for someone, getting the coffee for the person behind me in line, homemade trail mix taken over to a neighbor, a simple smile at someone who looks like they’re having a hard day…. doing my bit of good, where I can.

Hope you all have a great week friends! xx

(Also, apologies on all the e-mails that went out this weekend… I have no clue why that happened and I’m currently looking into the issue….) 

(Kept it nice and neutral to kick off the weekend…. cami, jacket)

(Saturday morning snuggles…..)

(Feasted at home Saturday morning…. couldn’t wait to take a bite of my food….)

(Sippin’…. my leggings, pullover)

(Warm temps called for a casual little dress + a family BBQ…. dress, tote)

(Love fresh berry season….)

(Sunday stripes…. post chocolate milk spill…. jumpsuit (on major sale), slides, jacket)

(Worked on the nursery, and Harper’s, room all weekend…. basket, rug, side table)

(Sunday comfies… top/bottoms (more Honeydew Intimates favorites))

Shared a delicious trail mix combo over on instagram yesterday…. banana chips, dried raspberries, almonds, and Lily’s chocolate chips… put it in a tupperware, take it to work, and you have a simple healthy snack on hand!

I have a special lunch with my mom, sister, grandma, and aunt this coming weekend (in lieu of a big shower) and I haven’t picked out a dress yet but have my eye on this grey fitted dress (love the shape of it), this light blue lace inset dress (not sure how the slit would work with the bump, striped cami dress (love the blush tones), and this eyelet tunic maxi dress (might need a belt with it though).

I’ve been wearing this lariat necklace non-stop, and it’s part of Shashi’s jewelry line… they have great everyday, and statement pieces…. like these wood earrings I brought on our weekend getaway….

Levi’s has some great cut-offs, for under $100…. and the lengths are usually perfect. I love this distressed pair + this rolled hem high waisted pair.

Urban Outfitters is having a 17% off sale today (discount at check-out)… some of my go-to’s like this button-up thermal (great for nursing), blush cardigan, runner rug, and this little white dress are all included (see below)

I recently purchased this sand colored suede jacket and think the color is absolutely beautiful for spring.

Not that I can wear any of these items right now, but Madwell’s spring arrivals are super cute… this bubble sleeve hoodie looks so cute for lounging, polka dot jumpsuit is too cute (especially with the suede jacket above and some cute slides), tank shift dress (love the button front details), stripe shirtdress (such a great throw on and go option… and would be perfect for nursing), and this sweater tank (I like the olive color… and I have something very similar to it that I purchased two years ago and it’s so great).

TULA’s cooling and brightening eye balm is back in stock! I use it daily and it’s such a great product…. you can get 20% off with code SHANNON20.

How cute is this straw tote?? I think it’s great for spring + summer!
