That’s right. As of the end of school today we are officially kicking off Spring Break 2019. I’m going to start it off by heating up heavily processed nacho cheese in the high school stadium concession stand as I work my shift before the soccer game. It’s really all I dreamed Spring Break would be once I was an adult. Robert Earl Keen was right, “The road goes on forever and the party and the concession stand shifts never end.”
But we do have some fun things planned like painting Caroline’s bedroom and cleaning out all our closets. I’m sorry if I’ve made you feel jealous.
Here are some cute things I found this week:
1. downtown sway multi stripe tie top
I love a colorful top for spring and summer and this one would look so cute with white jeans. It’s $48.
2. old navy flutter sleeve midi-dress
This is about my favorite shade of green of all the shades of green. I might add a belt with this dress depending on how chintzy the elastic looks, but I love the color and the way it fits. It’s $44.99 but I bet Old Navy has some sort of online sale this weekend.
I actually think it would look so cute with a leopard print belt like this one and some cute gold sandals.
I featured a maxi dress made from this same material a few weeks ago, but I really love this top option. It’s $50.
4. loft dotted smocked neck flutter shell
This is $54.50 but there is 40% off at Loft with the code NEWNOW until Sunday. This could be dressed down with jeans or perfect for the office with black pants and a sweater or jacket over it.
5. treasure and bond woven raffia hat
I basically spend my summer months in some sort of hat at all times because the sun is not a friend to my face. Also, summer hair is hard and hats make it easier. I have a hat that’s similar to this that I bought at Gap years ago and it’s my favorite. This one is $39.
6. loft smocked mixed media blouse
This is such a pretty color and I love this style of top. It’s $54.50 but 40% off with the code NEWNOW until Sunday.
I have seen a lot of leopard print mules and such, but these are my fave. I love the buckle detail and I think they could easily be dressy or casual depending on your outfit. They are $89.95.
8. sam edelman lotus denim shorts
Denim shorts are everywhere again for this spring and summer and I really like a cut off style because they look a little more trendy than a cuffed version. But it can be hard to find them with an inseam that’s somewhere between mid-thigh and is this a swimsuit bottom? These have a four inch inseam which is just about perfect. They are $78.
9. steve madden pam espadrille platform wedge sandal
These may be my favorite sandals I’ve seen thus far. I love the woven detail, the heel height, the whole thing just works. And you could wear them with everything from the green Old Navy dress up above to the cut off denim shorts with a cute shirt. So versatile. They are $79.95.
10. old navy smocked flutter sleeve blouse
This top is darling. I saw it in person the other day and I don’t always love florals, especially tiny florals. But this just works. It’s $29.99.
That’s it for today.
Have a good Friday.
