What I'm Wearing

-
I haven't done this in a while.
1. it's been hella hot and I keep wearing the same few pieces over and over (not at all exciting)
2. We haven't gone anywhere and have literally been in pj's and workout clothes until just before the Hubs comes home
3. I think I've lost my style mojo

However, school started this week and I have afternoon carpool duty which means I have to put on clothes. 
And since I like to look somewhat put together I decided to photograph today's ensemble.
Hopefully this will inspire me to continue on this path and be held accountable each day.










Top: H&M (old)
Shorts: H&M (old)
Earrings: H&M (old)
Shoes: Mossimo for Target

Also rocking (or attempting to) the front braid. It's way to hot to bust out the flat iron or have my hair on my face so I've been playing around with alternate styles to stay cool.




 I've worn this outfit before in the fall but never really rocked it in warmer weather so I enjoyed the casualness of the tee but loved the polish of the black shorts.
They're a step up from my usual cut-offs and flip flops

Linking up with Lindsey!

    You look so cute as always! A little jealous that you can wear those shoes! Everytime I put on a pair like that they make my feet look super wide (weird).

New Year's Style: A little glitz & some Tiny Swag

Aaaannnnd we're back!
Just like that the Holidays have come and gone ushering in a new year!
With a new year usually comes a new evolution of sorts and foresee a lot of evolving happening here at Carpools to Cocktails over the next 11 months! I can't wait to share all the fun things with you!
But picking right up where I left off (and because it's Wednesday) here's a few shots of my New Year's ensemble. I wanted something fun but not 'fussy' as we were going to be spending the evening at a friends home with all the kiddos. I needed some kind of glitz but not over the top glam & some definite sparkle. (helloooo it's NYE! You can't not sparkle!)

This sweater was the perfect middle of the road piece. Oddly enough, my daughter picked it out on our last trip to Forever 21. I glanced at it and she said "Ohhh, Mommy, it has SEQUINS. Soooo cute." And I was sold. Great selling skills that kid.

I have been in love with these skinny cargo pants s…

Lightening Up With Bright Tech Shop

As you all are aware and have graciously been on this journey of making our house a home – you know I’m slowly bringing my Pinterest living room to life. While I was debating on a sofa and looking for a side table, we realized we were missing something else very important in the space: light.
The lighting in our rented home is not the best with no major light source in the main living space. It mainly resides in the front entry way and there is light in the dining room but that’s it. I like to read in the evening and even work from the couch so I needed some added light. But finding a lamp I loved was proving to be just as difficult as the side table search. Luckily for me, the lovely people at Brightech lamp reached out and they have a collection of floor and table lamps that made my heart go pitter-pat!




I chose the Harper because it’s exactly what I had in mind when I envisioned lighting for the living room. I loved the look of a tripod lamp and the Harper is all that I wanted and mor…
