summer sweaters

May 28, 2015

With the weather in Dallas staying below 80 degrees, one of the most used items in our closets lately are summer sweaters. There is nothing really “sweatery” about a summer sweater. In bright summer colors, lightweight fabrics (think cotton and linen) and unique detailing, a summer sweater is a something we reach for again and again. We have styled this sweater for a casual day look, but wear it with white jeans and wedges, and it’s a great casual dinner look. This sweater will definitely make it into our suitcase for our upcoming beach trip. It’s perfect for those chilly California nights!

an easy summer appetizer

May 27, 2015

On a trip to France a few years ago, we came across such an easy summer appetizer, radishes and butter. We were reminded of it recently and decided to share with you guys. It’s not only easy, but also so pretty and light– perfect for summer entertaining! We found colorful Easter radishes at Whole Foods, and picked up some peonies in the most beautiful pink. Add a French baguette, sea salt and unsalted butter, and you have your appetizer. Just dip your radish in the soft butter, then in the salt and enjoy! Simple, fresh and delicious. Besides the traditional sea salt, we also used pink Himalayan sea salt for some added color and a little twist.

white eyelet romper & trina turk event

May 26, 2015

A white eyelet romper is a great summer staple. This romper has been worn while riding along with the husband during a golf outing, to dinner last weekend, and for a casual poolside get together. And, we are hardly into the warm summer months. In other words, get used to seeing this romper on repeat all summer! We also plan to style it with heels in a neutral shade, or wedges to dress it up a bit.

We hope everyone had a great, relaxing Memorial Day weekend! We spent ours attending a BBQ (had one rain out), furniture shopping, hitting Flywheel each morning and of course, dodging the rain all weekend. And, we are so excited that it’s a short work week!

In fact, this week gets even better. On Thursday evening, from 6-8 pm, we are hosting an event at Trina Turk Dallas to benefit the Rise School of Dallas. The Rise School is a non-profit organization that provides early childhood education to children with Down Syndrome, or other developmental disabilities. This Thursday only, Trina Turk is donating 20% of all purchases to The Rise School of Dallas. We hope you’ll join us to support a good cause and of course, enjoy a little shopping and champagne! Details below.
