This year, Memorial Day weekend was a blur! It’s funny how having 2 kids can keep you so busy. Ha! That’s one reason I love having this blog: so I can write down memories before my mom brain forgets everything. Without further ado, here’s our Memorial Day weekend recap 2018!
This post is sponsored by Carter’s; however, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Getting two kids plus myself ready in the morning is… well, let’s just say not easy. Over the years, I’ve started building somewhat of capsule wardrobes for my kids. I don’t follow the capsule wardrobe “science” exactly, because lazy. But I have a great mom hack to share with you on how to build an easy capsule wardrobe for Baby and get your little ones ready for the day more quickly!
Last weekend, Hubby and I had a day date at Prairiefire, one of my favorite destinations in Kansas City. Before kids, I never embraced the day date… but now, it’s much easier to get someone to watch the kids during the day [when the sitter doesn’t have to deal with bedtime]. So, day date it is! And after the movie [that my husband picked!], I pulled him into Threshing Bee, a fun local boutique, to check out some jewelry [that I picked]. Read on to see the fun monochrome Kendra Scott jewelry look I selected!
It’s no secret that I love monochrome style for myself and my littles. I’m even getting my husband on board. Some people think you can’t wear black and white for spring, but let’s be honest: those people are wrong. Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite monochrome looks for spring: white denim paired with a black halter top.
![Brown Sweater and Ripped Denim: We're in the midst of a never-ending winter in Kansas City [ugh, Kansas weather!], so, as a Kansas City fashion blogger, I'm sharing one of my favorite winter fashion looks to get your wardrobe through until spring hits! You can't go wrong with a classic brown v-neck sweater, and the ripped jeans give this outfit a bit of edge. Of course, no mom outfit is complete without a stylish diaper bag!](https://www.covetbytricia.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/04/Brown-Sweater-and-Ripped-Denim-2-665x435.jpg "Never-Ending Winter Fashion [Brown Sweater + Ripped Denim] 5")
So I feel a little weird posting about a sweater, jeans, and boots in April. But we have a never-ending winter going on here on Kansas City, so I’m sharing some never-ending winter fashion. I really, really, REALLY hope the weather warms up soon…. until then, enjoy this brown sweater and ripped denim look. And some hot chocolate. And some fires in the fireplace. Can you tell I’m trying really hard to make the best of this never-ending cold?
