Before I start shopping for Fall (what?!) I thought it would be fun to recap my summer wardrobe essentials for you.  These are items in my closet that I have worn over and over again this summer.  You’ve seen me share them throughout the summer and our travels and today I wanted to round-up all the details and give a summer wardrobe review.  I am also going to share a try-on with my summer wardrobe essentials today so head on over to @purejoyhome and check it out!

 

SWIM

Whether we walked the kids to the pool in our neighborhood or took a trip to the lake or beach, I packed each of these items with us.  It included my 6 year strong one-piece (super mom friendly) and my #1 most popular item of the summer, this Amazon Find Scalloped Bikini.

Ruched Bandeau One-Piece Suit
Six years strong wearing this extremely flattering one-piece bathing suit.
Scalloped Bikini
This was the top selling item this summer and depending on size & color you order you can get it for under $13 right now!! I have the color Garnet and white.
Floral Beach Kimono
Pink Cover-Up

OUTFITS

SO many good items to choose from this summer it was hard to narrow it down but these were the pieces I was reaching for the most.  I had a mix of things I could wear to more dressy events like this gorgeous Tiered Maxi Dress or my everyday go-to outfit essentials like this Tie-Back Tank Top  (35% off today!) and my favorite 10″ High-Rise Skinny Jeans.

Tiered Maxi Dress

Spaghetti-Strap Stripe Jumpsuit
This was my 4th of July outfit and I was SO comfortable yet felt so feminine and still dressed up for the holiday.
Tie-Back Tank Top
This tank is 35% off with code “APLUS” today making it under $18!!  It fits true to size, I wear an XS.  It’s available in 10 colors, I have the black, green and light blue.
High Waist Ruffle Skirt
Under $20
Free People One Fine Day Dress
This dress has been sold out for so long and I just recently saw it came back in stock in this color!
Striped Boatneck T-Shirt
On sale for $22 today!  I would recommend sizing down one size, I’m wearing the XXS for reference.
10″ High-Rise Skinny Jeans
This is the only white denim I have worn this summer.  It’s the step-hem edition with a button-up fly.
Montauk T-Shirt
Belted Ultra High-Rise Ankle Jeans
On sale right now for $35.20 (originally $88).  For reference I am wearing size 25/Short.
Denim Jacket

ACCESSORIES / SHOES

I like to keep my everyday jewelry simple so I was so happy to find a few clutch items I wore on repeat like the Victoria Emerson Wrap Bracelet and this beautiful Gorjana Gold Pendant Necklace.  I also invested (finally) in a pair of the Karen Walker Sunglasses and I am so glad I did.  They are beautiful and compliment everyone’s face so nicely (at least in my opinion).

Apple Watch

I have the seres 4 and the 44mm size so it’s the bigger on, great for reading texts and e-mails while not having to be attached ot my phone which I love especially when I am playing with the kids and really focusing on being present with them.

Karen Walker Sunglasses

Gorjana Gold Pendant Necklace

Tory Burch Miller Sandals

I have the square-toe thong sandals.

Straw Double Disc Earrings
Only $10.69
Victoria Emerson Wrap Bracelet
Round Rattan Bag
I hope my summer wardrobe essentials are things you all love as well!  I would love to see any pictures of you styling pieces you’ve shopped through my page so if you want please share on Instagram and tag me so I can see!  Next up…Fall shopping!  But first, the pool 🙂  Hope you all have a really great weekend soaking up the sun!!

Lets Be Social

We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican ad We’re currently in Phase 1 of our Costa Rican adventure. This is the two week decompression period where we train our bodies and minds to slow down (this is more for me than anyone else), and let me tell you, I’m lapping it up.  We’re spending all day outside at the beach, going to bed early, eating lots of fresh fruit and healthy foods, swimming in the ocean, I’m working out and meditating in the mornings, and having fun together. For someone who is usually always in high gear, this part is my gift to myself 🐚 

We are staying at a beautiful place in papagayo with @exclusiveresorts and it feels very luxurious and restorative. 

The kids are already thriving. Being together 24/7 comes with its arguments and fights but they are learning how to just be with each other and with their crazy little brother. They’re helping a lot with him, learning a little Spanish, surfing, writing in their journals, and meeting kids from all over the world who are staying here as well. 

I’m letting us get pampered for this phase, and it feels really good. 

Thanks for coming along, I hope your year is off to an amazing start! Is there anything specific you’d like me to share about while we’re in this phase? I was thinking about sharing my morning workouts and meditations, but let me know!
Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app Recently, I downloaded the Melissa Wood health app @melissawoodtepperberg @melissawoodhealth and so far I’m loving the workouts. I try and do one every morning. They’re super quick so sometimes I do two. I like that they are gentle but hard. They incorporate a lots of yoga, pilates, breathing, stretching, balancing and all that good stuff. You can see from the videos I’m pretty shaky in the first couple clips, that balance is tough but I’m building up my strength, I can feel it 💪🏻
