Blue Herons Taking Flight

This blue heron t-shirt in my favorite navy blue inspired a leaping photo shoot.  I had to include a pop of pink with my Gemma Paisley flats to meet the current J. Crew challenge. Speaking of challenges, this post is my 100th post!  I’m definitely jumping for joy over that.  When I started this blog just over four months ago,  my goal was to publish five days a week. Thank you for following along.

Stripes and Liberty

I am fully embracing the recent J. Crew challenge to wear pink.  My new J. Crew Jane sunglasses are such a fun shade of pink.  I added a pop of pink and green to my new favorite Liberty shirt (that I previously featured in this post Fiddlehead Farm ) with a preppy pink and green striped long sleeve tee. This white denim pencil skirt is quickly becoming my new go to and is perfect for pairing with fall looks to still feel like summer.

In the Pink

There is nothing like pink to instantly lift your mood.  The latest rollout from J. Crew is all about pink.  They issued another challenge.  This time to wear pink for five days.  As you know, I am more of a navy and leopard girl, but this pink look put a spring in my step.  I am loving my new paisley Gemma flats with the neon trim.  My Ryan sunglasses in blush are the perfect neutral.  This neon t-shirt I picked up on sale last summer, but I have linked something similar below.

Martha’s Vineyard – Menemsha Sunset

We had the most perfect weather for our trip to Martha’s Vineyard.  There was only one day of rain and very low humidity.  I have heard it is just so sticky right now.  One afternoon we took a short walk before dinner.  We then headed to Menemsha for dinner at Home Port.  They have the freshest seafood and the sunsets from the Menemsha Harbor are amazing.

Stripes and Paisley on the Vineyard

We just got back from our family vacation on the East Coast.  It was our second year staying on Martha’s Vineyard with my sister-in-law and niece.  My sister-in-law has a beautiful house on the island that is walking distance to one of the best restaurants, State Road.  My husband and I took a stroll there one evening for a drink and appetizer and snapped these photos.  I love this new cap-sleeve dress from J. Crew and my favorite Gemma flats in this neon paisley.  I continued the pop of pink with the belt and cardigan and then added a more tonal lucite necklace (which is such a great length).  If you have not checked out J. Crew’s sunglasses that launched this fall,  there are some great styles.

We had an amazing time with great beach days and East Coast vs. West Coast Monopoly games.  My son and I then spent three days exploring Boston.  It was the first time for both of us.  He is six and even managed to be my photographer one day.  Stay tuned for a kiddo photographed Boston outfit post and several others from Martha’s Vineyard.  The island is just magical and it is so great to have a week with our East Coast family.

Ikat and About

There are so many pretty and inspiring walls in Venice.  My mom and I found a bunch of cool ones a few weeks ago.  I featured this J. Crew Ikat blouse in my Ikat in the Dining Room post.  I decided it needed to be shown outside with white denim.  These were such fun backdrops and I added a Parker Thatch sequined clutch.

Watermelon Sequins

Sequins at Legoland?  Why not?  I recently took my son to Legoland and this was my casual outfit.  I love this beaded (almost sequined) watermelon sleeveless tee.  My chambray shirt always comes in handy for extra sun protection and to help with changing temperatures.  I have several pairs of these New Balance for J. Crew sneakers.  They are the perfect way to be comfy, stylish and add a pop of color.

Into the Preppy Wild

My final outfit for the J. Crew challenge has a preppy twist with my sweater around my neck.   I decided to go matchy matchy with the shirt and shoes.  I wore this Ratti “Into the Wild” print four other ways in these four posts: Tropical Gold, Party Pants , Tropical Stripes , Going Bananas,  and Into the Wild and Off the Shoulder

Tropical Gold

About a month ago J. Crew issued a challenge to wear one floral print five ways.  I chose the Ratti “Into the Wild” print.  I featured the print in these three posts: here, here and here.  Today I am styling the ruffle-sleeve top with my favorite white jeans and gold espadrilles.  Stay tuned for my fifth look next week…
