Our weekends have been so simple lately. We mainly spend our times between my parent’s pool, our outdoor space, having good food, a few libations, and catching up on everything the week distracted us from. It’s a much simpler summer than those in the past, but it’s also much less complicated… weekends aren’t jammed packed with little room for rest… wardrobes consist mainly of a bathing suit, cover-up, and some sort of loungewear… and the amount of times spent as a family are much greater…. So I guess when we leave one thing behind for a period in life (hustle + bustle), we often gain something else much more valuable in its place (time with family).
I hope you all have a great week!


(Birthday celebrations for my sister….)

(Friday evening poké bowls….)

(My favorite spot in our house, especially on Friday nights….)

(Squeezed in a quick Peloton ride before heading off to the pool…. sports bra, shorts)

(Made a Mediterranean platter for Saturday evening appetizers- artichoke hearts, pita bread, tomatoes, olives, radishes, hummus, and chive + garlic cheese)

(Round two of tea after an early Sunday morning wake-up… mug, slippers, joggers)


(Back to the pool we go… shorts, tank, girl’s outfit)

(We’ve been loving Ina Garten lately… especially her fiesta corn +avocado salad… so refreshing for summer afternoons…)

I did a long run in these 2-1 running shorts… they were super comfortable and love the high waist….
A few new arrivals from lululemom that I am loving right now include these Align Biker Shorts (I own these in two colors + they’re buttery soft and so comfortable… lots of cute new colors), my favorite cropped tee is now available in a mesh material, oversized terry crewneck (beautiful colors), + this cut out cropped hoodie.
ALO yoga just restocked these cozy lounge shorts… loving the putty colorway. Also, this mauve raw hem cropped sweatshirt + shorts are super cute.
If you’re looking for a cute one piece swimsuit, I found this adorable ribbed, scalloped, suit… comes in a pretty pink + light blue color…
