Things I Am LOVING Lately

Thank you to everyone for your kind comments on my last post. The world is full of some crappy people, yes, but also some really awesome people.

I’m going to lighten up the mood with some of my favorite things lately, mmmk? Wonderful.

More TK on these in an upcoming post, but they are THE BOMB. I’ve long been obsessed with running skirts because they’re forgiving if you don’t have perfectly flat abs (which LOLLL I never will) but still let you show off your legs. These shorts are kind of perfect. They have a nice thick waistband and have a bit of room to them in the legs without being boxy. And the blue is adorable. I received them for freesies for an upcoming post, but I’m probably going to buy at least another pair for marathon training, I love them so much.

I was not all about the first generation of the Fresh Foams, but my friends at New Balance legit stepped up their game for the Zantes. They’re a lightweight shoe that still has some cushioning and support and feel speedy. I’ve been wearing them a lot during the week but am not sure I’m going to wear them for the half.

Lorna Jane Comfort Sports Bra: There’s nothing exciting about this except that it fits and provides support without suffocation, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, without chafing. There may be more of these in my future this summer, too.

So I REALLY wanted to make this dress work, but sometimes being busty in a maxi dress just makes you look dumpy. We had a Junior League fundraiser at Lilly last night (HI FAVORITE THINGS AND FAVORITE PEOPLE IN ONE PLACE) and I got that cute cute dress above with a gift card I had from some birthday returns.

GET YOUR CREDIT CARDS OUT NOW IF YOU’VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS DRESS. I’m here to tell you that it is 150% worth it — it’s super flattering AND it’s now on SERIOUS sale at J. Crew with code GETSHOPPING. So…get shopping, people!

 

What are you loving lately?

  • I'm in love with my fresh foam shoes! And I love the idea of a Popsicle in a drink! How fun!

  • I like the running shoes. I want something light weight and having those foams really eases my tired feet when I'm running. I'm also an avid reader of your blog.

  • I'm loving anything that involves a glass of rose, I was in NYC this past week with my mom and brother, but haven't been feeling very great with unemployment, while drinking is 100% not an answer, one glass while relaxing feels great.
