Alright, it is mom's turn. I have compiled a list of things I expect to LIVE in this summer.
I live in Georgia. It is hot, so much of my must-haves are hot-weather friendly. We are an active family. I am hoping to play a good bit of tennis and golf this summer. When I am not playing I will probably be watching one of my kids play. So tennis and golf outfits are a must.
I know what you are thinking...that isn't my style. Let me stop you right there. Tennis and Golf outfits are so comfortable. Tennis and golf skirts are literally the black leggings of the summer! Most of the skorts are pull on....comfortable. Most are the same type of fabric as your favorite black leggings...comfortable.. All have a hugging spandex short underneath the skirt to provide coverage when I bend down and pick up my two year old....practical. You look put together! Trust me...you will see! Hello Summer Uniform!
I found this pull-over at Belk not that long ago. I saw, I loved, I bought. I have a thing for scalloped edge detail. It may be my weakness. I have shorts, dresses and now a pullover. This pullover is lightweight and feels terrific. The material is liquid-y. It is perfect for the occasional summer spring evening that you can still feel a chill in the air.
Fo those of you who don't live in the South, Belk is a department store. It often is a stand alone store (thats how ours is) but sometimes can be found in the mall. They have lots of brands, but I especially love their store brand called Crown & Ivy. They have unique preppy style items that fit my lifestyle to a tee.
Birkenstocks. You can see my original post that I did about my love for Birks here. But basically let me tell you they are great. you will love them, you will live in these!

Cute pajamas are a must! With a couple of spring and summer trips with family comfy and modest pajamas are a must have. I love target pajamas, I have been buying different varieties for different seasons. I especially love the button front varieties. These fabrics are incredibly soft, wash well and hold their shape. In my opinion, there is nothing worse than feeling like you have to get dressed before leaving your room at family's house. That doesn't work for a momma who needs to check on kiddos. Wear these cute pajamas with a bralette and you are good to go!
I spotted these darker floral print and had to have them.
You all know I love earrings. I talk abut earring all the time! Lets be honest, we all have our vices. I loved the large dangly variety. The color just says summer. They would look cute with anything from white jeans to a summer dress!
I think in Summer a couple of great pairs of sassy studs are a must. They jazz up a simple outfit and aren't too much if you are going to the pool, park or on a hike. It is a little way of saying ...I am making an effort to put my look together, without going over the top.
As I said in my previous posts, we did a little family vacation over Thanksgiving. We stocked up on swimsuits for that. I am hoping to make all of them last through this summer. My favorite suit I wore on that trip was very similar to the one I highlighted here. It had some peek-a-boo spots that keep the look sassy without feeling like a granny. I paired mine with a great kimono style cover-up and those exact shoes from Target. I like to buy less expensive but still cute slides for the bool and beach, so if they get ruined...no big deal!
I was looking through the Academy Sports website and spotted these shorts and instantly fell in love. Do you see that price point?!? Who doesn't need a great pair for shorts that is easy and you can throw on with a tee shirt and birks? The answer is no one. Everyone needs an easy throw on outfit, especially if you are a momma.
Finally, a classic summer dress. Perfect for church or a date night. I love how popular floral prints are right now. /feminine and classic, I found this at old navy and thought it was perfect. It would be cute paired with a light sweater or denim jacket. Or if you are really edgy and moto leather number would be amazing!
