Sunflower Print Shorts + Summer Sweater

I've always loved a good floral print of any kind, especially when it comes in the form of the cutest and comfiest pair of shorts!  These flowy, elastic waist shorts are so perfect for mixing and matching and also so flattering on a variety of figures (even if you're 23 weeks pregnant like me)!  The shorts come with a matching crop top as well which I would totally be wearing if I didn't have an extra round belly right now!  Instead I paired them with this summer crochet sweater, which is just as cute!

Vintage Polka Dot Maxi Skirt

I love anything polka dot, especially when it comes on a flowy vintage skirt!  Vintage skirts are one of my summer staples and so easy to dress up for special events or down for daytime wear.  For a casual Sunday, I paired this one with a simple tank, sandals, and straw bag.

Summer Porch 2018

Today I'm sharing my summer patio which I refreshed and redecorated just a little bit since last year.  The biggest change out here was recovering the cushions on my furniture with this black and white striped fabric from Amazon.  The cushions have springs on the inside and are flat on the bottom, so I was able to recover them easily with a staple gun, scissors, and no sewing.  I shared a little more about my porch clean-up process and everything that I added/ changed here

How to Style a 4th of July Beverage Station + 3 Easy Summer Drink Recipes

One of my favorite ways to entertain outdoors is to set up different food and beverage stations for guest to enjoy.  Putting together a big bar cart or beverage table away from the food set-up gives your guests plenty of drink options and the ability to customize their own drinks, while also freeing up space for food on your counter-tops or buffet!  I love having designated areas for food, drink, and desserts when entertaining as it helps spread guests out and gives them somewhat of an activity to do as they go from station to station.
