My everyday look is generally pretty casual with fun accents and accessories. That's why I absolutely love Rebecca Minkoff's handbags. She never fails to create a must-have bag in the hottest colors. And most recently, I've been eyeing her MAB tote. So when I spotted it in this gorgeous shade of purple, I just knew I had to have it. It's perfect considering Pantone's color of the year is radiant orchid. And when you have a fabulous bag like this to tote around you really don't need much else to make a statement.
Let me also say this bag holds everything! With a toddler and preschooler, I carry everything from sippy cups to extra clothes, so I love that it can double as a diaper bag without looking like one.

I had wanted to share this look sooner, but this past week has been one extremely long drawn out week. So I'm excited to finally get to share the details of what I wore for my birthday dinner.
After 4 years of laying low on my birthday, I thought it was time to step it up and get fabulous for my 29th. I've spent the past 4 birthday's either preggers, about to pop, or taking care of an infant. So it was time to do something fun and what's more fun then a girls night in Hollywood! We had reservations for SUR restaurant. And if you don't already know, SUR is a trendy restaurant and lounge in West Hollywood and the focal point of the Bravo hit show, Vanderpump Rules. So clearly, I had to go all out for my night out and nothing screams fabulous better then a little Marchesa!
Normally, I'm all about piling on the accessories, but tonight, I wanted the dress to sparkle all on its own. And I'm not ashamed to admit this is a kids dress. I hate being on the verge of petite and regular sizing. At 5'4 I'm usually somewhere in between so depending on brand I can go either way. I will always say the best part of being on the petite side is being able to snag a few goodies in kids department.

Hey Everyone! I hope you all enjoyed your last official weekend of Summer. If you follow me on Instagram, then you should know I packed the girls up bright and early and headed to Target yesterday morning to snag some Phillip Lim goodies. And so glad I did. I got my hands on the very limited yellow mini satchel. Woohoo!!! We were second in line, that's not saying much since there were probably only about 10 of us in line total, perks of living in a small town. No one to fight over purses with. HAHAHAHA! Well I hope you all had a chance to pick up some goodies from Target's collaboration. Can't wait to share with you all the things I picked up. Check them out in the upcoming posts.
Today, I wanted to share a cute little crop top I came across and had to have. Now, the only other time I wore a crop top this Summer was in Maui. I felt like it was appropriate and didn't feel like it was too scandalous as a mom. All Summer long the trend was going strong and I kept wanting to try it again but in a more modest way. Kind of an oxymoron I know, but I knew that if I searched long and hard I would find a crop top that wouldn't bare too much and could actually look chic.
I just recently found this great crop top from Zara. With its long sleeves and loser fit on the body it was just what I had been looking for. And since then I've been loving it. I can pair it with any high waisted skirt and it just barely shows a sliver of skin.
