fringe mini skirt

June 17, 2014

During the summer months, you can usually find us in an easy summer dress or a maxi. But every now & then, a skirt is just what the doctor ordered. Over Memorial Day, Katherine & Justin spent the weekend in Austin to see friends & family. Between making the rounds visiting everyone, enjoying a Memorial Day pig roast & spending time in the sun, Katherine found time to visit one of our favorite boutiques, Beehive. Beehive is a great, on-trend boutique that has now expanded to Ft. Worth. Their clothes are adorable and affordable, a great combination! This fringe mini skirt is the most recent Beehive purchase. A mini is the perfect thing to wear on those days when dresses just aren’t cutting it! We’re especially loving the detailing on this navy mini, the unexpected glam of this mini & the colors of this mini!

Ps – The gold horn necklace is part of the new Courtney Loves Gorjana Collection, designed and curated by Dallas’ own Courtney Kerr! It’s a great piece to wear on its own, like we have for this look, or to layer with all your favorites. Check out the whole collection here. We want it all!

The US Open Bar Party

June 16, 2014

Our husbands love golf. If they could spend every weekend on the golf course they would! So, in honor of the US Open Golf Tournament this weekend, we decided to have a party to celebrate. We had guests arrive dressed in golf-themed attire, although some were dressed as “spectators” – mostly the girls! A Payne Stewart look-alike won the costume contest (see more pictures on instragram here)! The biggest hit of the party was the John Daly cocktail. It’s a super-refreshing drink for the summer months, so easy to prepare ahead of time & served in a pitcher for everyone to help themselves. We highly recommend it for your next summer get-together!

The John Daly:

1 part unsweetened iced tea

1 part lemonade

1 part vodka

Mix all three ingredients together in a pitcher. Garnish with sliced lemon, pour over ice & add a fun straw! We used Chick-Fil-A tea & lemonade- how easy is that?!

Cheers,
