Here and There

Nail Art

One trend that I am totally smitten with is nail art. Sometimes it is the simple details that make your look feel complete.

Nail art should be kept simple, too much tends to look tacky. Here are a few of my favorite nail tends for the spring! ( images via pinterest)

Mother's Day Getaway

My husband and I headed to Palm Springs for Mother's Day weekend. The desert is an oasis for R&R and one of my favorite places to visit in the Spring, as you can always count on excellent weather.  (pictured above, Susana Monaco dress, See by Chloe bag, Madewell sunnies)

Mother's Day Gifting

Even though I have not met my baby I am technically her mother, which is reason enough for me to celebrate this upcoming Mother's day. Pictured above are some gift ideas that I strongly suggested to my husband (Apolis hold everything bag, Seavees sandals and Garrett Leight Sunglasses).

Sunny Days

My husband and I took a mini road trip down the coast to one of our favorite cities in Southern California, Malibu. We stopped for lunch at the Malibu Country Mart and snapped a few photos in my favorite maturity vintage find. (ever since my post on the  60's inspired patio party, I have been craving to find a day gown) also pictured are Sam Edelman sandals, Rebecca Minkoff purse, Madewell sunnies and Miansai bracelet.

Must Read

The Modern Girl's Guide to Motherhood is a great read for expecting mothers. The author Jane Buckingham is a modern girl that will shoot you straight. Her book provides practical tips and sound advice for novice mommas.
