Wouldn’t it be great to just carry it with us? Well, until then- I will hold on to photos and memories. . Got so many compliments on this gorgeous coverup yesterday, thought I would share. You can snag it in-store on clearance for $11, or online for a bit more. Such a great addition to throw over a swimsuit, denim shorts and a tank or white jeans! .

    #thursdaythoughts : EAT the DONUTS 🍩, especiall #thursdaythoughts : EAT the DONUTS 🍩, especially when they are mini and made fresh to order like they are from @thedapperdoughnutflowood 🥳 We started our weekend off with them a couple weeks ago and I can’t wait to go back! So many delicious options and sure to please everyone in the family. #winwin . It’s been tough to find joy in this #newnormal and to be honest, it’s little things like finding a new local place to support or treating yourself to something you normally wouldn’t that gives me something brighter to focus on. #bethelight Happy Thursday, my #instacrew 🍩🥳🥰 . . . . . . #july2020 #previouslysponsored #doughnutday #flowoodms #mississippi #jacksonms #treatyourself #supportlocal #bakedgoods #msinfluencer #msbloggerbabes #msblogger
    This morning’s conversation in my closet with my This morning’s conversation in my closet with my daughter: “Mama, why are you wearing your dress as a skirt?” Me: “So that I can get multiple uses out of one thing!” Mackenzie: “Are you going to make it into pants too?” Me: “Now that would be a good fashion idea!” . In all seriousness, though, multifunctional pieces in a wardrobe are the way to go! This smocked maxi dress (already sold out, but I linked other options) is a perfect example. Wear it as a skirt OR dress and throw on a jacket to make it a bit more dressy or casual. Comfortable and flattering! #winning . . . . . http://liketk.it/2RR5N #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKsalealert #LTKstyletip #LTKunder50 Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app #july2020 #budgetfashion #shopmylook #shopmycloset #walmartfinds #scoop #scoopfashion #walmartfashion #multifunctional #southernblogger #msinfluencer #msblogger #msbloggerbabes #bloggerstyle #momstyleblogger #mississippi #jacksonms

I find myself being drawn closer to a goal of mine that I’ve had for decades, but always been too fearful of starting....or worse, never finishing. 😳 What do you want to see happen this month?⬇️ . . . . . . #july2020 #newmonthnewgoals #july1 #mississippi #southernliving #southernblogger #july4thoutfit #ootdfashion #momstyle #momstylelife #msinfluencer #msbloggerbabes #msblogger #jacksonms #madisonms #lakelife #lakeside #reflections
    🌈BE HAPPY🌈 This shirt was gifted to me by on 🌈BE HAPPY🌈 This shirt was gifted to me by one of the most beautiful organizations in my local area, @mustardseedms and has become one of my favorites. . The last few months it’s been harder to #behappy .... our lives are now #sociallydistant and honestly, I know I’m not alone when I say I kind of hate it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I know it’s for our own good, but today I stood in Starbucks for my mobile order and most everyone inside was wearing a mask and standing far apart. I felt like crying. Is this the society that I have to raise my babies in? Where we can’t see one another smile or frown? Where we stand so far away from one another that it feels isolating and lonely, even though we are all in a waiting area? . I found myself talking to God in the car afterwards.... and I said “God, I need to find moments of joy. When do I find joy?” And I instantly thought of my children. I thought of how when I hold them, I inhale them. And they each smell differently, but so familiar. I find so much joy holding my babies. Even though Mackenzie is closer to 7 now than 6, she still reaches up to me to carry her from her bed to the couch so I can bring her Fruit Loops. And Marshall crawls up on me every night to “cuddle wish me, mama”.... this is what makes me happiest. I share this with you to say that even on the darkest days, find a moment that brings you joy. #BEHAPPY, my friends. ☀️ for today, is a #brandnewday... . . . . . #june2020 #mississippi #tuesdaymood #findjoy #realtalk #momsofinstagram #momof2 #newnormal #summer2020 #ootdstyle #ootdinspo #graphictee #supportlocal #jacksonms #southernfashion #southernblogger #momstyle #momstyleblogger
