At first I was a little.. eh.. hesitant at this ruffle trend.  Thought it was to fancy pantsy girly.  

BUT, I must say.  It is stunning & so chic.  Didn’t think I would like, but now I am UH-bessed.  I want every single one I just linked for you.  Super cute for this Summer.

ALSO I literally figured out how to keep these DAMN string lace up shoes to STAY while you’re walking around.  I was bond & determined to figure it out!   There is nothing more annoying than the laces just untying & falling as you walk… right?  Like I am cringing thinking about it. haha.

So whats the trick?

FIRST start by wrapping really really low on the ankle, then as you’re wrapping them up place each one very close together— almost overlapping each other.  Got it?

Okay, next you want to either tie it on the back of the leg, or front.  I guess it is personal preference, but I did on the front because that is the only way I could without the laces being to long. 

When you tie it off, tuck the left over lace under, if you can and if you want.  Again, personal preference.  BUT the trick is keeping them VERY close together as low as possible. 

If you like to lace them all the way up your leg, then be prepared to be re-tying those babies up every 10 steps.  At least that is my problem I have with them.

Does anyone else have any tricks they would like to share, or better yet, have any of you found lace up that actually STAY PUT?!  Please do share!

Headed to meditate now, on day 11.  Has anyone done the headspace app? Or doing it?  How are you liking it?!

Chat with you later,

MY TOP / SKIRT / BOOTS (ON SALE!) / BAG

OAKS SHIRT / PANTS / SHOES

But how cute are these baby Converse? Aside from mama loving them, Oaks LOVES them too.  He stomps his little feet around and giggles, smiles and thinks its so cool the walking sounds it makes against the floor haha.

He just barely started like actual shoes.  Every time I would buy a pair from Zara he would HATE the way it felt and would throw a fit and not be able to walk, so those didn’t last.  The only shoes he would wear are Freshly Picked mocs.  So moms, don’t even waist your time and money on buying them shoes until they’re very very good walkers.  Oaks wouldn’t do it until now, and he is almost 1-1/2. 

Just get those easy slip on mocs from freshly picked.  Oaks, of course still wears those! 

Switching lanes here.  I am loving the bodysuit trend.  Super easy & efficient in wearing your shirt under your pants.  You don’t have lines anywhere, and its wonderful.  Missguided has 50% off EVERYTHING on their site right now, so you must run & go check that out.  

I linked some of my favorite bodysuits with the flare sleeve, because that is such a cute trend I am dying over.  How can you beat 1/2 off??  That means that body suite I am wearing is only $17.50!  Such a steal!

Going to film a work out for you guys now! Have a great day!
