Inspiration Monday: So Chunging Proud


When: Monday, August 1

This weekend was fabulous with LOTS of sisters bonding time.
I was able hang out with Laurie all weekend and it is just what I needed.
It is so isolating being a mom but when I have a chance to be with my sister
it helps to normalize the everyday aspects of mamahood.
My little nieces are so easy going so she was able to stay through
Otto and Ava's nap times to chat.
We both realize how silly it is that we only live 10 minutes from each other
and life has a way of getting in our way of hanging out together.
We both cannot wait for the day when the kids are a little older
and we can just put them all in bed at one house and spend the night.



Over at Two Birds it is Inspiration Monday and Alexa Chung is the inspiration for today.
I would love to have a pair of ankle tied espadrilles but since I don't the gladiator sandals
I have been wearing all summer fit the bill for this outfit post.

I LOVE this camo jacket!
I was so excited when I found it and it was on sale for less than $10.
BONUS!
I am looking forward to cooler weather so that I can style it in other fun ways.




Enjoy!

XOXO,

Julie

    Ha, cute jumping picture! I love that camo jacket and romper. You look so great!!

    I totally hear you about the kids and craving adult conversation. lol I have a friend who has kids the same age as mine and I rarely ever get to see her. When we do get together, it's total chaos! lol

    The jumping picture is great! You look awesome as usual. Can't wait to see how you remix the camo jacket come fall/winter.

    My sister and I only live 5 minutes away from each other and we have the same problem. I definitely know what you mean about needing some adult time :)

    I like the contrast of the cameo jacket and the romper, very adorable and fun outfit. The jacket is a great buy too! I also love it that you pair it with a cheery bracelet, lovely! Have a great week!
