“wherever life plants you, bloom in grace”

Happy Friday friends!! This week was full of busy work with a side of shopping. I couldn’t stop ordering things online (insert monkey with his hands over his eyes emoji). It was a much needed retail therapy.

Next week my sister and brother-in-law are moving to Atlanta, Georgia. My brother-in-law got a new job down there. This weekend I am spending quality time with them before they move. I am pretty sad to see them go, but also am really excited for their new adventure! My cousins used to live in Atlanta when we were growing up, so we are pretty familiar with the area. I am mostly excited to have a new vacation home there 🙂 Anyway, we are going out to dinner Saturday night at Mitchell’s Steakhouse with my family and my brother-in-law’s family. And on Sunday my sister, cousin, and I are hanging out either going to a movie or out to dinner.

When I think of summer only one thing comes to mind– Lilly Pulitzer. Full of bright colors and to-die for prints, it’s the ultimate summer attire. I first fell in love with Lilly in my early 20’s, a late bloomer I was. When I moved to NYC, it become my go-to summer shop. It is definitely a more east coast, southern brand, but here in there midwest, I do see a few people sporting the beloved brand. During the summertime in NYC I felt like I was in a sea of Lilly–especially at Junior League– and I loved it! I am sad I no longer live near a Lilly store, the bright colors of the store always cheered me up. I would take the train from 22nd street to 79th street (sometimes I even walked), just to be in a room full of happy colorful things–plus it was fun trying on the new arrivals and taking a shift or two home with me. I was there so much, the girls who worked there new my name.

The season of dresses is finally here! I have said this time and time again,  I live for dresses. And in the hot summer days ahead, a dress is the only thing I want to wear. Is it just me or is this year’s dress selection Ah-mazing! I am pretty sure I am going to go bankrupt from all of the items, like these 8 dresses below, waiting for me to purchase. From off the shoulder, to front tie, to ruffles, this year’s summer dresses are speaking my language.
