Today I am continuing to share what’s trending this week with a few home, fashion and even back-to-school finds! I had such a funky week feeling the pull between being SO ready for school to start up again but also trying to soak up the last few days of summer with the kiddo’s. Does anyone else feel that constant #momlife struggle? Craving routine and time carved out to do work or have alone time even other than after bedtime? I am excited for a new school year to start and cherish all the amazing memories we made this summer traveling, spending time with friends and family and celebrating my two loves birthdays.
Summer weather this week has also been throwing me off with the on and off rain and thunderstorms. I was happy I got another raincoat in camo which is the exact style I’ve had for a few years now in the blue. It’s a great jacket for Summer, Fall & Spring and I am loving the camo print.
FASHION
I was able to step back into work mode a bit more than usually this week, thanks to help from my amazing parents and Brian! So I did something I have wanted to do for a while and shared on stories and IGTV as well as here on the blog. Styling this amazing midi leopard dress,5 different ways was a cool challenge. This is one of the top what’s trending this week items and it’s on sale for 10% off this weekend. Not only to just style the outfit but to figure out the technology behind making the try-on video, etc. This job allows me so many creative outlets it’s so fun to be able to share what I produce with you all and I received great feedback on it so will be trying those out a bit more.
One of the most loved styles from that session was this casual look with the graphic tee’s. I paired the dress with the Joy Division Tee and my new FAV Biggie Smalls Tee which is back in stock!! Many of you said you wouldn’t have thought to layer the t-shirts over the dress and I’m so glad to share another way to wear midi dresses like this to make the $ worth it. Personally I was excited to find another outfit to wear my Vans with as they are so comfortable. I love a good casual look that I can still feel put together in. And the other top looks were easy to style as I simply adding a layer over the dress. I paired it with this Blank NYC Moto Jacket and this new coatigan from J.Crew.
HOME DECOR
Home decor was a big topic and popular for what’s trending this week. I shared mini living room project makeover and gallery wall art ideas for that room. This rug was a big hit and it’s currently running an up to 60% discount on items for a limited time! There are a few more things coming in for that room and can’t wait for them to come in so I can style the space a little bit more and share an update with you hopefully this week.
BACK-TO-SCHOOL
And if you are like me and sending your kiddos back-to-school next week this is a must-have item for packing lunch! Bentgo just upgraded their lunch boxes so they are leak-proof. I have tried a few different lunch boxes and this is by far my favorite as it has enough space for all the food I need to pack. Most of the previous ones were too small and my kids would be starving! Also, in case you missed it, I shared tips for creating a DIY restaurant kit for keeping your kids entertained while out and about.
I hope you enjoyed reading about what’s trending this week and wishing you all a really great weekend!!
