Kaftan Love

I love kaftans. But the pretty ones are so expensive! Managed to get these 2 yesterday from Witchery for $95 combined less my $10 reward, so came down to $85. Love that they can be worn over swimmers or as a dress with a slip underneath.

The second one would look lovely with these sandals that are on sale so I might go back to get them!

I also realised that I never actually showed any pictures of my outdoor setting after we had it all set up. We ended up getting one bench seat as I love that the ends of the table fold down and we can move the bench seat around the deck for extra seating. We took the other cushions back as they were way too small, I didn't think this combination would work but I love love love it! So happy with the whole setting. I keep changing around all the bits and pieces on the table top but this is what's on it at the moment. Will take some better pictures when it's a sunny day!

These Are A Few Of My Favourite Things

Currently loving at the moment...
This table runner and stone pieces on our new outdoor table.

Dry shampoo. Obviously I'm the last person on earth to try this! I just for some reason thought it wouldn't work, but it does!

This stuff is gross and sticky and streaky when applied, but once it develops it's the best even colour and tan!

Having a bit of a chillax on our back deck while one boy is sleeping and the other playing on the trampoline.

OPI Rainbow Connection. Still love this.

I'm a big fan of sparkling water, loving these new bottle designs.

Doing a huge wardrobe cull and rediscovering things I forgot I had. Score!

Home

It's difficult to have nice things when you have little ones, especially boys! We have a lot of things that we bought close to 10 years ago when we first moved in together. I am very grateful that we haven't upgraded much since then as it would now be covered in crayon/baby spew/milk etc etc.

We are lacking a few things though and without wanting to spend too much it is tricky to find things middle of the road, ie; not too cheap and nasty but also not super expensive. Enter 2 of my favourite stores Target and Ikea!

Really love this outdoor dining setting and it's a great price. Will be jazzing it up a little with some colourful cushions.

Also looking at a new bedspread and I'm loving this chevron print one from Target.
