Kids Spring Style

Spring has to be my favorite time for kids clothes, everything is always so cute and bright. A couple of days ago my cousin and I went into Old Navy and I fell in love with so many things. They are having a sale now, 40% off of kids clothes with the code flykids.  And there is free shipping for any orders over $50 for all of my online shopper friends out there.

Here are the things I had my eye on - some even came home with me ;)

Girls

Boys

Aren't these all so cute?  I know they girls' list is way longer than the boys, but girl clothes are my weakness and there are so many more options for girls (not fair).  I had to stop myself from spending way too much! 

Have a great Thursday!

Life Lately

Happy Wednesday!

Life has been so busy lately, I feel so behind in the blog world and promise to read your posts and respond to your comments asap!

It's been quite a while since I've done a life lately post - we haven't been up to anything earth-shattering, but I still love doing these posts every once in a while.  They're fun to look back on!

Little by little we've been trying to finish the kids rooms.  For E's room I'm going eclectic - I'm not doing any one "theme" but putting items that I think look cute together and making them work.  She loves her room, and has helped me pick out everything on her walls which has been fun!

We went to a picnic recently and there is a huge man-made hill (we live in Florida - we are hill-less here).  We trekked to the top and the kids and their friend sat and looked at the view.  The lighting was GORGEOUS so I had to snap a picture of these three amigos.  We had such a fun day spending it outdoors with gorgeous weather!

 The sunsets lately have been killer!  Am I the only person that sees the walls in their house turn pink and immediately runs outside, camera in hand to take a picture of the sunset?  They are one of my favorite things, they always amaze me!

 If you see this wine at your local store, pick it up!  It is beyond delicious.  Publix had it on sale the other day and we bought like 5 bottles #dontjudge.  Its such a smooth cab, and the flavors are perfect!

This little guy will be 4 in a few days and I can't even handle it.  He's getting so big and it makes me sad to think that soon he'll be in school.  We just finished cleaning up the playroom in this picture - which is why you can see the floor ;)

National Wine Day was last week, and I celebrated it the best way I knew how and partook.  Any holiday that encourages having a glass of wine is my kind of day!

I got my Steve Madden heels in the mail the other day from Nordstrom and I am in LOVE with them!  They are comfortable for being so high too.  If you get these buy them a half size bigger, they run small (thanks Lindsay!)

I also got my first subscription of RocksBox in the mail and to say I'm obsessed is an understatement.  I loved all of the pieces in my box, for it being my first order they got me spot on.  If you want to try out RocksBox enter code kidsandcabxoxo at checkout for one month free.  You can cancel at any time so there's no reason not to try it for at least a month.  I have no doubt you'll love it as much as I do.  I also love that you can keep the jewelry for as long as you'd like before sending it in for your new box!

I finally filled the wall in my formal living room that I've been trying to fill for almost 5 years!  I decided on a over-sized clock thanks to Katie who gave me the idea, and I love it!  I got it at Kirklands - you cannot beat the price for how huge it is!

I hope you all have a great day!  I'm off to catch up on my blog reading xo

Pretty In {Blush} Pink

Happy Monday!  I hope you all had a great weekend, we had a pretty busy one and I don't think I'm ready for Monday - I may need to drink a gallon of coffee to get me through today.

Spring is in the air and if there is one color that I'm crushing on it's blush; actually, I've been crushing on blush for a while.

I love how versatile it is! Blush is basically a neutral and can be paired with almost any color and look completely adorable.  Below are some of my favorite picks from around the web:

Are you a fan of blush too?

Friday Favorites (2/19)

TGIF!  I hope you have all had a good week.  This week went by really fast, but I'm not complaining it was nice to have a 4 day week and spend some extra time with my kids - is there a way to make that a permanent thing? ;)  I'm counting down the days for Spring Break so we can all lounge together at home.

I'm linking up pt share my favorites this week


one |  Everyone keeps saying so many great things about the Naked 2 Basics Eye Shadow Palette, and I'm contemplating if I should get it too.  I have Naked palettes 1, 2 & 3 but love how compact this is and perfect fro traveling.  I'm also loving this Urban Decay bronzer set - that pink looks perfect for Spring!

two |  This watch is giving me all of the heart eyes!  It's so different looking and the color of the leather band is perfect!

three| Don't forget to enter out #LovelyStyledLife Target Gift Card Giveaway!  We are so thankful for all of you that have participated in our Instagram Series we wanted to say thank you!  If you don't know what I'm talking about you can read more about it here, we'd love for you to join us!

four |  You all know how much I love a white kitchen - this one had me swooning the other day on Pinterest.  And those barstools?  To die for!!  The whole look is perfect!

 

five:  This Chickpea, avocado and Feta salad sounds so good and refreshing!  I'm going to make this soon - it would be a perfect side to some grilled food!

 

Have a great weekend!

Can't Live Without

We all have our favorite products or items that we can't seem to live without, those products that no matter what we try - we keep coming back to.

I'm rounding out a few things that I use on the daily and don't see myself stopping any time soon.

one | Converse Shoreline Sneakers - I wear these sneakers constantly!  They are so versatile - they go awesome with jeans, skirts, sundresses - you name it, and are easy to slip on when I'm in a rush to get out of the door.  I will always own a pair of these shoes!

two | Concealer - I'm a mom, enough said ;) but in all seriousness, it is very rare that I leave the house without concealer on.  I've always had dark circles around my eyes and motherhood has amplified them.  I've tried many different brands, and was even on a Maybelline kick for a while, but I came back to my tried and true friend, MAC Studio Finish.  It provides me with the best coverage using not as much product.  It's a little thick, but when applied right after your moisturizer it goes on smoothly.

three | Bath and Body Works Candles - These are hands down the best candles for their price, they smell delicious and one candle makes my whole house smell good!  You can't say that about many candles.  I love many of their scents, but my signature scent, and the one you'll see lit the majority of the time here is the Eucalyptus Mint candle.  It's not too over-powering and it's a very clean smell, which I love!

four |  Mascara - One of the other few things you'll rarely see me leave the house with.  Even on days where putting makeup on isn't much of an option.  I have been LOVING the Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara.  I'll talk more about it in another post, but in the meantime, if you're on the lookout for a good mascara, pick this one up!

five | Fresh flowers - If you have been around Kids and Cabernet for a while now, you know how much I love having fresh flowers at home, and more often than not you'll see them around my house.  I know some people think they are a waste of money, but I buy inexpensive ones at the grocery store and I think having them at home makes your house more homey, inviting and adds a touch of glam - all wins in my book!

six |  Another thing I can't live without is my homemade "febreeze spray".  I make a batch weekly and spray my furniture and rugs daily since we have a dog, I try to eliminate any odors I can!  It's so easy to make, all you need is some rubbing alcohol, an essential oil of your choice and water!

 

And of course there are the obvious things like: husband, kids, WINE, and my phone - but you already know all of that ;)

What are somethings you use on the daily that you cant live without?

Friday Favorites (2/5)

 Happy Friday!

I hope you all have had a great week!  Ours was a good one, and now I'm looking forward to Sunday and eating all of the yummy Super Bowl food!  We're having a viewing party here, if you are too or can't decide what to bring to a viewing party, check out my post from this week - I gathered a few yummy options for game day and some inexpensive decor ideas!

I'm linking up to share my favorites from this week, and I'm trying a new layout to make it a little easier.

one |  I'm pretty sure we can all agree that this shirt is pretty accurate!  I need this in my closet asap!

two | I'm in love with these Steve Madden heels - the color and style is perfect, they're so versatile!

three | I'm a huge fan of Kate Spade earrings (and everything else she makes) these are next on my list to get.  I love the gold glitter with the black stone.

four | This Michael Kors watch is so pretty and unique, the double band is so pretty!

five | Target has these glass and metal organizers that I'm drooling over.  They have a three compartment one, and one that is perfect to stash makeup in.  I'm so tempted to pull the trigger on these - I'm obsessed with gold!

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Jeans On My Mind | Style

Such a late post this morning - we all got out of bed late and then a particular dog decided that it would be a great idea to dig in the mud - so she needed a bath, all before 8:30 am - fun times!


Let's talk about an item that's mostly worn in our closets - jeans!  I don't know about you all, but I'm such a jean person and my jeans are probably worn the most out of any other items in my closet; yes, even in the Summer.  I've always felt like they hid one of my body parts that I was the most insecure about which are my skinny legs, and from there grew a love for jeans.


I was always a boot-cut lover with the occasional flare, but lately I've been switching it up with my new love: jeggings!  It took a while for me to warm up to the idea of jeggings (again skinny legs) but now I love them!  They have such a nice fit, and in my opinion can be dressed up a little easier than a boot cut -- maybe that's not really the case, but it's how I feel, ha.  I always buy my jeggings from Express.  I love their quality and they always have a great sale going on which make them even more affordable.

I've linked a few of my favorites below - right now Express has a buy one get one for $29.90 some are even buy one, get one $19.90 on all of their jeans!  This is when I stock up on my favorite styles.

The next jean style I'm going to try, are the flares and girlfriend jeans, - I love how they look!  They'd be so fun to dress up, and the Girlfriend jeans look like the perfect "on the go jean".

As you can see by all of my choices, I'm a huge fan of the distressed look; I have to force myself to buy jeans that don't have holes!


What are you favorite kind of jeans to wear?


Don't forget tomorrow is Wino Wednesday AND the first day of our #LovelyStyledLife Instagram series!  I can't wait to see everyone's posts!!

Have a wonderful day!

Currently Loving

You'd think that after all of the great end of the year sales I'd be tired of looking around and shopping, but nope.  There are so many cute things out, and even if I'm not hitting the purchase button, it's still fun to look around!

one / I have the Mossimo  (aka Target) gray sweat pants and they are my absolute FAVORITE.  They're so soft and look cute on.  I've done many runs out to the store wearing them because they look adorable!  two / I'm loving these sandals from Loft and their price is great!  They'd look cute with just about anything on. three / These are more than I would spend on pj's but when they go on sale, they're mine!  Plus they pretty much go with my matching pj #goals, haha  four / I've gotten a few shoes from Express and I always love them.  I think these two tone ones are next.  five / I've been wanting to try the Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick - have any of you tried it?  Did you like it?

Have a great day!

On my Radar: Fall Makeup

Happy Tuesday Friends!

One of the best parts of the season's changing, is being able to switch up your look a bit.  I love the golden tones of fall, and the berry lips, I just need to perfect my winged liner look!  Which I'm in the process of watching some videos on; did you know you can use Scotch Tape to help you form the line??

mind blowing, right?

Ok back to the makeup looks I love...

Don't forget, tomorrow is Wino Wednesday, drink up and link up!! xo

 

Five on Friday (10/30)

I know everyone is going to be saying this but... how can this be the end of October already?  This year has FLOWN by.  It's true what what they say, the older you get the faster the years pass.

I feel like I've been in some type of blogging/life funk this week - I couldn't get my act together!  I'm hoping next week will be better and that there wont me so much silence around here.

I'm linking up today to share my favorites from this week.

one:  It's soup season, and this tomato soup with grilled cheese croutons sounds pretty perfect!  I just wish the rest of my family loved tomato soup as much as I do, this sounds and looks so good!

two:  Pretty much obsessed with these wine bottle drinking glasses from Rewind.  They are so unique!  Now if only I had room in my cabinets!

three:  Next Wednesday is Wino Wednesday - we would love for you to linkup with us and share some of your favorite wines, or your favorite cocktails with wine, prosecco or champagne

 

four:  I'm loving Adelle's new song Hello.  Her voice is just so beautiful as are the words to the song.

five:  Lastly, I'm loving this pretty space.  I'm a sucker for neutrals and distressed wood - this space is right up my alley!

I hope you all have a great weekend!!  I'm getting together with a good friend this afternoon for some wine and cheese... if that doesn't put my weekend off to a good start then I don't know what will ;)

Thoughts on Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday!!

I hope you all had a great weekend - ours was nice and relaxing, which I loved!  I couldn't pick one topic to blog about today, so you get a smorgasbord of thoughts today :)

one:  I saw this video yesterday on Facebook of a baby who saw clearly for the first time with glasses - it was one of the cutest and heartwarming things I've ever seen.  Her face is the cutest when she realizes that she can see!

two:  Gilmore Girls is coming back!!!  Netflix announced that there will be four 90 minute episodes with the original cast - I'm so happy about this, I hated the way the series ended so it will be cool to get a glimpse of them now.

three:  I made Skinny Taste Maple and Dijon Chicken last night and it was AMAZING!  My husband and the kids loved it and it was so easy - less than 5 ingredients and it cooks in the Crock Pot - talk about a winner, you need to try it! 

four:  We're off to Disney in a couple of days!  We're surprising E, she has no clue!  When we pick her up from school, her bags will be packed and off we'll go.  I can't wait to see her face and I'm hoping we can go by the Food and Wine festival in EPCOT for at least a little bit, the food is always so good!

five:  My booties from DSW came in on Saturday  - they are so pretty and are very comfortable!  I wore them that night to dinner and was in love!  They're still on sale, scoop them up before it's too late - you can't beat the price!

Ok, that's I'll I have for today - have a great day!

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday everyone!!!

And just like that we're half way through October - crazy, right?!  We have a pretty low key weekend planned which I'm not sad about.  Now that E is in school, there's so much running around that I'm happy to take each day as it comes!

I'm linking up to share my favorites from this week


one:  I ordered these booties a few days ago off of DSW.  I've had my eyes on them for a while.  They are on crazy sale, so I couldn't help but order them - they are basically $100 off right now! I can't wait to get them and see how they fit.

two: Fixer Upper is on Netflix - not sure if this is new or not - but I'm going to be pretty busy watching the first season!

three:  I'm loving Adrianne Betz's beautiful coastal home tour.   She's the founder of Little Adi + Co and lives in beautiful Charleston - her home is perfection!

four:  This bathroom is all around gorgeous but my favorite part is the scalloped tile and how it's the focal point of the bathroom.

five:  I totally need this mug!

Have a great weekend!!
