Sauntering into Fall

Well, hello there! It’s been a while!

I’ve had a very busy couple of months with travel, work, and mothering that I haven’t had a chance to do much in this space. But, I’m here now! And now is the perfect time to talk about my favorite fall transition tips.

When it comes to heading into Fall your accessories are going to do the talking. Especially the footwear. You can take a basic summer dress and style it perfectly for the cooler season approaching. Here are four ways to smoothly head into the beloved Fall season.

1. Fabrics

When it comes to the cooler season think about the kind of fabric and textures. The grey dress I’m wearing is a very soft but lightweight sweater material.

2. Booties!

They’ll take basically any outfit to a fall level in a very simple way. A peep toed bootie is even better on the days it’s not very cool at all.

3. Colors

Think neutrals or darker tones to really lean into autumn. I truly love to pair navy with other colors in the fall and winter. It can be unexpected.

4. Hats and Scarves

I saved the best for last! Swap out that summer straw hat for a thicker felt brim one. Hair need washed? Grab a hat. Also, a scarf can really add a luxe feel to any outfit. Opt for a lighter one for when the weather is still a little warm.

I don’t know about you, but I’m very ready to bid Summer adieu and say hello to many of our favorite season! Now, go grab your booties and head to the pumpkin patch!

Hideaway Bay Resort

Happy Monday to you all!

A lot of you were very interested in where MK and I went this past weekend, so I decided to do a post about it because we simple had the best experience and I just have to share. As I’ve said before, MK is the master of amazing getaways and Hideaway Bay is no exception. Located in Silver Creek New York, nestled in a cove off of Lake Erie, you’ll find this beautiful beach front resort. There are ten two bedroom luxury cottages and you get to call one your own. Also, no matter where you look there is just the most gorgeous view!

We arrived a before check in and headed to our day bed on the beach for relaxing and lunch. Let’s not forget to mention there is a fabulous bar on the beach as well delicious cocktails.

You guys know I’m a foodie and must talk about that. I had the crab and lobster roll with truffle fries for lunch and let me tell you, it is what dreams are made of. For dinner, fish tacos and again, perfection on a plate (it comes with two I ate one before snapping, oops).

Believe it or not, even though I’m an indoor animal, I love to jump on a kayak (in calm water that is). Mk and I had the absolute best time paddling and floating around.

After that fun, we headed to the onsite sauna (do we want it? Yea, we sure do.) for even more relaxing (see a theme yet?) not only was it a very Zen experience, but there was a huge window with, you guess it, another beautiful view. After that, it was time for the hot tub!

Pro travel tip: if a place has a signature drink. Drink it. This was the Summer Water Froze and let me tell you it was divine!

I think it’s safe to say we will be returning to Hideaway Bay. Trust me when I say it’s worth checking out. We got to relax so much we were ready to return to the chaos if life.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope your week is fantastic and full of fun!

Break It Up

Why hello there!

Today I’m talking about my favorite set and why set’s are such a huge part of your closet.

Today on “What I Pulled…”

…for a birthday party at a distillery!

If I’m being very honest I struggle with wearing things over and over. A capsule wardrobe just isn’t for me. But it is something that I’ve been working on. I’ve always been a fan of a set but I’ll tell ya this one is my favorite and I usually always break up a set. I think the key to a great set is a pattern that you like. In this case its a pattern I love. It goes with just about everything! Don’t be afraid to pair patterns with unexpected things too. I didn’t do that here but the next time I wear one of these you bet I will!

So when you’re shopping I urge you to keep an eye out for cool sets with a pattern you can keep on mixing and matching with many things that are in your closet. And in my case, be forced to wear again. Ha!

Cheers to you all! I’m off to do very suburban Mom things today.

Have a fabulous Tuesday!
