With warmer days on the horizon, I’m celebrating by rounding up some of my favorite items in one of Spring’s prettiest shades…pink of course! I feel like I’ve found a new appreciation for the color with my newborn daughter. I woke up one day and everything surrounding me was pink. While the color can be flirty and feminine, it doesn’t always have to be overly sweet. Here are my stylish picks that have me tickled pink this month! 

Aje Dress: A modern take on a Bridgerton-inspired look. The precious pink color and statement sleeves are balanced by an edgy cutout at the waist. I might have to get this one for upcoming family photos!

Tod’s Loafers: The comfiest driving loafers in buttery leather. I own these in orange, but the pink is too pretty to pass up!

ASOS Flats: Satin Flats with a sparkly bow will bring out the inner ballerina in all of us! 

Tom Ford Rose Prick: A floral scent with a little bit of a spicy kick. On top of the beautiful scent, I also love the matte pink bottle! 

Sunday Riley Pink Drink: A refreshing and firming treat for your skin. Spray after cleansing and before your serums and moisturizer. 

Alison Lou Pink Sapphire Ring: I love the pink sapphire framed by light pink enamel. You can wear this as a stacker, or on its own for a dainty and feminine look. 

Molton Brown Pink Pepper Bodywash: My go-to shower gel scent. It’s divine!

Staying home during the quarantine while pregnant definitely led to a shake-up of my daily wardrobe. I traded my stilettos for pajamas and loungewear just like so many of you. While I’m usually not one to spring for special pj’s, they’re all I wanted as soon as I gave birth to my little Elle.  Enter Lake, a brand that sells the softest cotton loungewear you can imagine. I had previously been gifted a set of shorts, but never really wore them since I don’t love bare legs around the house. 

Well, let me tell you that after getting a set of the long pj’s, I haven’t wanted to take them off. They’re soft, breathable, and oh so cozy. I also love that they offer special sets for maternity needs/nursing mothers, so they are great for this time in my life.  I opted for a striped set in Parisian green (a pretty mint shade), that will be cute no matter the season. The best part? I got a matching set for Elle so we can get our “mommy and me” on without even leaving the house!

I love the pj’s so much, I’m already considering what set we’ll get next. Maybe lavender? Since the sets are 100% cotton, they do shrink quite a bit – so if you are interested in this brand, make sure to keep this in mind. Let me know if you’re a fan of Lake in the comments below and your thoughts on what colors will be cute for Spring!

Maternity – Parisian Green: LAKE. Lavender: LAKE. Kids Lavender: LAKE.

One of the joys of blogging is discovering new brands to add to your wardrobe. One such brand for me is Mi Golondrina. This female founded company began with a mission to showcase Mexican heritage in fashion. The founder wanted to preserve the tradition of hand embroidery and also empower the talented Mexican artisans. Today Mi Golondrina elevates the indigenous skill of these artisans, and also ensures to pay fair wages for their art. I love this history, commitment to the founders heritage, and the gorgeous designs and skills that go into every piece. 

I’m so honored to partner with Mi Golondrina to showcase three styles that caught my eye for Spring/Summer. First, their Flores collection launches today and features colorful embroidery that does the collection’s name proud. I opted for a short dress that I paired with red hot heels! I loved this dress so much, I also had to have it in a crisp white. We all know the white dress is the cornerstone of any warm-weather wardrobe. I paired that dress with my favorite straw hat, clutch and espadrilles to finish the look. Last but not least, I was so drawn to the brand’s Olivia dress with its ruffled collar and sleeves. It’s so feminine and a beautiful addition to my wardrobe. I love the simple blue and white color story. In addition to the styles I’m wearing, I’m also obsessed with the Brand’s Valentines collection, now live on their site. Every dress is thick, doesn’t wrinkle easily, and you can truly feel the quality of the fabric, not to mention the gorgeous workmanship of the embroidery! The dresses, tops and skirts come in a never-ending rainbow of colors, so you can truly find one to match your personality and taste.
