The next gift guide in my holiday series is for the ‘girly girl.’ Similar to the hostess and travel lover guides, I would take any and all of these presents (especially that Audrey lamp from Lulu & Georgia!). All of these gifts are for the ultra-feminine lady, which naturally means there is a whole lot of pink involved.
Budget-Friendly Fall Trends
It finally feels like fall in Texas (hallelujah!) – I celebrated by buying these Paige Premium Skyline Skinny jeans (I am in love) at Nordstrom. I always regret saying this come January, but I am so ready for cooler temperatures!
Some of the fall trends can get a little pricey (hello, $1000+ leather pants), but I’ve rounded up budget-friendly ($200 or less) options of all the major fall trends, including capes (love this Tory Burch one!), overalls, leather pants, maxi dresses, and dark skinny jeans.
Happy shopping, and have a wonderful weekend!
PS Did you read Emily Schuman’s Crowdsourcing Guidance from Moms? It made me cry. So good. Oh, and make sure you’ve entered the Dr. Brown’s giveaway! It ends tonight at midnight.
I adore each and every one of the pieces above. I would absolutely love to have them all.
Work It Out
I genuinely believe that feeling good (i.e. stylish) in your workout clothes is one of the best inspirations to get yourself to the gym. I used to care a lot less about my exercise style, but have recently change my tone. My sister-in-law is a Lululemon fanatic – she owns everything from the store and has been amazing and gifted me lots of workout goodies. I recently purchased these Nike Lunarglide 6 Running Shoes and feel just as excited about them as a new pair of heels. They are amazing. If you’re in the market for a new pair of running kicks, I highly recommend these.
As soon as we’re back in Houston, I’m giving up my 24 Hour Fitness membership to get one to Life Time Fitness. One of my good friends has a membership there, and I’m excited about all of the classes we’re going to do together (and they have great daycare! Hooray!). I’ve put together some bright yellow inspired workout outfits for my three favorite activities – running, spin and yoga.
Do you enjoy buying workout clothing? What are your favorite running shoes?
Lastly, the winner of the BabyLit giveaway is Fiona! Congratulations!

July Fourth Sales
Happy July Fourth everyone! It’s Isla’s one month birthday – one of my best friends gave birth to her baby girl, Lillian, on Monday, and Sasha’s cousin gave birth on Wednesday to sweet little Ana. It was my little sister’s birthday yesterday and our good friend’s birthday tomorrow – what was happening nine months ago?
I love this holiday! This year, we’ll be poolside with Isla and Belle – time to dip the little one in the water (besides a bath!). I’ll also be online shopping, given the amazing deals that are available for Independence Day! Check out my favorite sales below.
