Monday Must Have - - Birkenstocks

I was definitely on the fence. I had a misconception about Birkenstock’s from when they were popular in the 90’s. I’m definitely not grungy enough to fit the profile of old. But last year, my very stylish friend says she swears by them. This friend is more stylish, in fashion and southern than I could ever hope to be. She is always put together and is #goals !!! So, I jumped in!

I ordered the patent white Arizona’s about a year ago, I LOVE them. I wear them all the time. I went through my pictures from the last year looking for times I wore these gems. Unfortunately, this activity led to the realization that our full length photos are few and far between. 😂

I’m to the age (ahem) that doing housework barefoot has started hurting my feet. So I literally wear these ALL year. If you have any kind of foot, back or joint issue, these are so supportive beneficial for many reasons.

They are great for travel, they slip on... but stay on. They are cute with white skinnies, cut-offs and sun dresses. They are my go to especially in the Spring and Summer. I live in Georgia, so they are pretty much in season 11 months out of the year.

They are an investment, but they have lasted so well and still have lots of wear left!

If you are on the fence, Birkenstock.com has a very friendly shipping and return policy. The variety of colors and finishes goes far beyond the grungy brown of its past popular seasons. The patents give a more polished look... the metallics 😍. I’m leaning towards the rose gold this year!

Valentines Snack Mix

This snack mix is so easy & versatile for any holiday or activity. This is a super kid pleaser. The variety I made is nut free, there is a peanut allergy in my daughters class. I started with popcorn & pretzels as my base. I popped my popcorn on the stovetop, you could just as easily use pre-bagged popcorn (Smartpop) or microwave popcorn. I used 8 cups of popcorn and 3 cups of pretzels. Mix in a large bowl. Next, melt your vanilla coating chocolate. Follow the melting instructions on the package. I dyed mine pink for the occasion. Once the coating candy is melted and the right color, pour it over your mix. Stir constantly until is all incorporated. Spread out on parchment or wax paper. I used valentines sprinkles next... this is optional... but too cute to pass up! Next, I did the chocolate covered pretzels. I used the remainder of the bag of pretzels. Same process as before, but using chocolate. Sometimes this is referred t...

What to wear Wednesday

Does anyone else have a kiddo that is super picky about clothes??? I have 2...so far. My oldest is picky about fit and feel, which makes it hard to shop for her. Up until recently she would say that her biggest enemy in life were ‘jeans & mustard’.... first world problems! But that being said, when you take jeans out of the equation it really limits your outfit options. I mean jeans match everything. I have found the solution! Target makes a super soft jegging in 3 different washes. She wears, loves and doesn’t complain. Light Wash Adjustable waist. Must have in my opinion for growing kids! They are on sale right now, buy 1 get 1 50%!!! That’s a great deal. You can find them here .

Monday Must Have - Organizing Products from Amazon

The next three weeks, I’m going to be focusing all of my posts on back to school efforts. Today is all about a couple of organization products I have picked up over the past couple of weeks. If you have been inside my house lately....you know I need all the organization help I can get! One of the things that I always do is re-organize my kids closets. This summer I’ve got a step further. If you follow me on IG, you know that we’re in a big room transition right now. Our oldest daughter turned 10 the spring, and it is time for her to have her own room. She has previously shared a room with our seven-year-old daughter. We moved our seven-year-old in with her little sister, allowing our oldest to have her own room. This means there has been a need for organization on all fronts. Moving our middle daughter into the littlest’s room, the closet storage situation was the most critical. Specifically shoes. I hunted and hunted on Amazon to find the perfect solution. I ...
