Life has been relatively simple for us lately… something that, to be quite honest, doesn’t come easily for me. I’m an out + about kinda gal (have been since I was little…) and I tend to get stir crazy. Easily. Yet the newborn-toddler life combo has forced me to slow down the pace for a little while. We spend weekend mornings making homemade brunches… and most of our evenings are spent in our backyard space… Harper running around in the backyard… lounging outside by our fire-pit….

And with the slower pace, comes a more casual + basic feel to my outfits (noticing a theme here??). Mixing + matching favorites to create new looks… and adding in simple accessories here and there to give them a unique feel. I’ve always been a huge Victoria Emerson fan, and tossing on a few of her pieces with a good ol’ oversized tee is always a sure way to pull any simple outfit together. I got this rose gold faced watch about a month ago, and since life seems to move in very small chunks of time (#nursinglife), the watch has gotten more than it’s fair share of use…. I love that the band is interchangeable… and have this camel option as well. No secret I’m a huge fan of anything with gold accents to it, so this bolo bracelet was the perfect addition to my collection. For Memorial Day, Victoria Emerson is having a buy one get one sale and my favorite zodiac necklace, my watch, bolo bracelet, my black wrap bracelet, + beautiful gold boho cuff (seen here) are all included. I also have my eyes on these beautiful clover earrings….

So, while life might be simple… and outfits basics… adding the perfect accessories elevates my basics to an all new level…. and at this point, easy ways to make an understated statement are the best in my book!
