Blouse: American Eagle Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters pants: HM Loving my bright, orange blouse from American Eagle at the moment. Everything is 40% off in store and online right now. I am tempted to go back to the store to get the black chevron blouse that they have also.  I don't normally shop at AE but I just couldn't resist orange chevron. Life has been busy these days. I wish I have more time to photograph and share more on the blog. Since Kaylee is older and active, I am cherishing every minute with her when I get off from work. Less time on computer and more time laughing and dancing to NickJr.  Her giggles and laughter can cure a long stressful day at work. Thank you friends for sticking around and reading my little ol' blog :) have a great weekend!

From Mother's Day Weekend: I got to spend Mothers Day with my two favorite people. Just a simple Sunday afternoon playing in the sun and it was perfection. Love watching Kaylee being overly excited over boat watching and dancing around in her cowgirl boots. Such a privilege to be a mother and share it with so many awesome women. "Life is just a series of everyday moments.  Hug your kids.  Now.  Go breathe them in.  They will only love legos, and dress up in tutus for so long.   So be their tea party partner.  Wear a cape.  Tickle them until neither of you can laugh anymore." Karen Stott Have a beautiful week!

Blouse and Skirt: Express Necklace: The Limited  Favorite top and skirt at the moment. It's feminine, elegant and vibrant,  simply perfect for warm weather we are getting lately. Can't forget Kaylee's lookbook too! HM dress and Target boots!   Hello there Spring. I am so happy to see you again, so excited to reunite with my summer dresses, bright pants and those cute sandals that are hiding somewhere behind my messy closet. Have a blessed weekend. Until next time!

Quick shoot before we head to the store earlier this week! Spontaneous photoshoot are always the best! I can't believe it has been a month since I last updated! I simply do not know how mommy bloggers out there balance work, life, and keep up with their blog! I have been working lots, the house is a mess but I am enjoying the simple things in life and blessed with so many kissed from my little fashionista each day! Little update on Kaylee, still a little sweetheart at 25 months! She doesn't call me momma, mom nor mommy but simply just mum. I am raising an English baby! ha! Right now her favorite tunes are Baa Baa Black Sheep, The Wheels on the Bus and the alphabet! You can watch her sing here :D At 25 months, I am amazed at how calm she is! I am so lucky to say that I have only witnessed her throwing a tantrum about 3 times total in public! That's pretty good right?! She is a quick learner and has great memory! (she definitely did not get that from me nor her d...

Wrapping paper as a backdrop Tissue paper #2, Fun and easy little diy I made the week before her bday while watching the Oscars :) Who doesn't love chocolate covered strawberry!! Delicious! Baked these yummy delicious cupcakes for the first time! Not to brag but it was a hit! lol Kaylee at 3M, 6M, 1Yr and 18M   I can cook too, is it good? You be the judge :) Come over anytime for dinner! We had so much fun this year planning Kaylee's 2nd birthday Party! I did not go extreme on the decor and we just wanted to keep it simple and minty. She had such a good time that day and did not go to bed until midnight! (Don't judge us, were good parents..promise) Kaylee is so lucky to have so many great people in her life and came for her special day!

Dress: Fifties colorblock dress from eShakti I received this beautiful pretty fifties colorblock dress from eShakti few weeks ago, just in time for Kaylee's birthday party! I am a bit of obsessed with stripes so this dress definitely caught my eyes as I was looking through their website. They are now offering size 0-36W! What I love about them is they also provide options to remove/include embroidery, pockets or other embellishments on their products. How cool right?! eShakti is now offering 20% off to all my readers right now! SMPLYVNNE for promo code! Check out these beautiful affordable bridesmaid 's dresses! ::Source:: ::From Kaylee's birthday party over the weekend::  Can't wait to share more when I have time to edit the photos! Lately: - I have been wearing braces for about 3 months now and I still feel like an awkward 15 year old girl ( I have about 2 yrs left! OMG) - I lost about 10lbs due to braces which I guess it is not a bad thing ...
