We had a 4 day weekend over here, and after the busyness that seemed to permeate the first part of 2025, it was very welcome. It was a weekend where we intentionally planned nothing: no sports, no get togethers, no getaway, nothing. We allowed the days to unfold naturally… including slow mornings, lots of time spent outdoors after several rainy days, catching up with friends and family, and really just relaxing.

And now as we jump feet first into the start of a new (albeit short) week, I’m grateful for those slow days. I hope you had a weekend that filled your bucket as well. Here’s to a good week ahead…

For this week, I have a “styled multiple ways” post on the dock….

(A fun family Valentine’s Day… festive decorations, a family lunch, heart pizzas, and then a little bubbly after the girls went down…. jeans, sweater, henley, trench, loafers (itsybitsyindulgences10 for 10% off)

(A family hike at Peter’s Canyon followed by lunch at a favorite, Flower Child)

Morning walk by the beach with an old friend….

Monday morning jog before a family day… top, leggings (PULSIFER10 for 10% off)

A fun family BBQ and day by the pool… pants, top (SHANNONx15 for 15% off your first purchase for pants/top), hat, suit

Vuori has some great new spring arrivals like these boyfriend joggers (love the blue heron color), slim flare pants (both colors are great), and this black tennis/workout dress I’ve had for 2 seasons was restocked.

Athleta is having a sitewide long weekend sale, and my code PULSIFER10 should still be good for an additional 10% off (or 10% off regular priced items)… I purchased these ribbed black flare leggings, and I own and love this lightweight anorak jacket (which is great for the rain as well), this workout dress is super chic, and I also own and recommend these stirrup leggings.

Madewell has some super cute new Spring arrivals… like this beautiful saddle bag, hardware belt in brown, wide leg cuffed jeans (also come in petite sizing), denim vest, and this barn jacket.

And a few other spring things I have hearted include this super soft maxi denim dress, brown and white striped oversized pullover, this brown ribbed long sleeve top, brown kitten heels, brown t-shirt dress, loose fitting sweater shirt, red + white striped shorts + cardigan, and these beautiful striped linen pants.

If you’ve liked the mesh/jelly flat look but want something that won’t break the bank, my sister found this under $30 pair and I have them in my cart. Such a great price.
