It is spring break for my kids this week! Yay! This means I have been able to take a little vacation along with them. When I am relaxing, yet still need to dress decently in order to go about town running errands etc., nothing beats the current athleisure trend. I am so happy leggings are considered fashionable right now! My favorite leggings to reach for when I am sporting the athleisure look at these soft and chic, straight leg leggings by Comm-Ci.

Comm-Ci is a fabulous online shop which is a legging heaven. They offer every type of legging imaginable from cropped knee length to straight leg. They offer high waist and low waist options, making it a one-stop-shop for leggings. Love!

I really love my straight leg leggings from Comm-Ci, they are so soft and comfortable; I definitely need to add more pairs to my wardrobe!

My son is trying to save up his allowance for a video game, so I showed him how to use my DSLR camera and he took these photos! He is only eight-years-old and I think he did a great job on the photos! He was really proud of himself when he realized he had learned how to use the camera. It was so cute! Don’t you think he did a great job?

You can find my leggings and more by Comm-Ci on their website at Comm-Ci.com.

how to wear bi-color denimspring outfit ideacasual spring outfit ideapink mansur gavriel sun totebell sleeve shirt for spring

Wearing: Kendra Scott earrings / YSL lipstick / black cotton bell sleeve top (under $25!!) / Kendra Scott ring / Christian Louboutin spring nail polish / Gap jeans (old, also love this pair the colors are more on trend for 2017 then my pair) / Mansur Gavriel handbag (mini size in stock here) / pale pink espadrilles (so comfy and under $175!!)

So have you ever gone to Target for one item and accidentally left with a cart of who-knows-what? Well, I did this a few weeks ago, only instead of a cart full of who-knows-what, I had a cart full of Who What Wear! haha

This blouse, which was part of my Target for binder paper, has turned out to be the perfect go-to black top for spring. It is comfortable, not expensive, and very on trend. Love! I have worn it with my bi-color jeans as well as my boyfriend jeans. It really goes with any casual pant style; love that!

These bi-color jeans have been in my closet since last year, and I wear them all the time! They may have stretched out a bit, but I still love them. If I wear them with wedges or heels, they hang OK. haha

My beautiful ten-year-old daughter has taken a liking to photography! She is so cute! My daughter snapped all of these photos while we were in downtown Los Gatos last week. My iPad had crashed, and would not turn on, so I had an appointment at the Apple Store to have it looked at. She came with me while they fixed it, snapped these photos, and I rewarded her with pizza from Pizza My Heart.

It was so nice to hang out with her one-on-one on a beautiful spring day! When you have three kids, sometimes it is difficult to get one-on-one time with one child. I love having that time with each of my children; it is how you really get an insight into their growing, maturing personality! So fun!

If you have multiple children, how do you break away from your busy schedule, and get one-on-one time with each of your children? I find it to be hard. I would love some tips!

Asymmetrical hemlines for spring

how to wear asymmetrical hemlines asymmetrical hemline outfit idea

Wearing: bold green and gold earrings / YSL lipstick / white ruffle top (under $20!!) / gold watch / Christian Louboutin spring nail polish / asymmetrical striped skirt / Mansur Gavriel handbag (in stock here) / Kendra Scott spring ring / Gucci slides

One of the biggest trends on the runways for spring was the asymmetrical hemline. Since this type of hemline isn’t common on the streets, I was wondering how to wear asymmetrical hemlines for spring 2017. I decided it needed to be done by taking the overall look down a notch; hence runway to the street.

In order to take this wrap skirt, with an asymmetrical waist and hemline, down to the street, I paired it with a simple ruffle tee. The addition of flat slides also helped to make the overall look more understated. It was really easy and comfortable to wear! I wore this outfit for the first time when I took my daughter to her chess class, hung out at a coffee shop with the other Mom’s from the class, took my daughter out for a sushi lunch, picked up my glasses, took a walk; basically ran errands!

It was really easy to walk around in these slides, and the outfit was perfect for the nice spring weather we are having here in the San Francisco Bay Area. We were in San Jose when we took these pictures at Santana Row. My cute little ten-year-old daughter took these photos. She did quite well! She might know her way around a DSLR camera better then me!

So what do you think of the asymmetrical hemline trend for the spring season? Have you been wondering how to wear asymmetrical hemlines this spring season, or does the trend appear too daunting?

The easiest way to bring asymmetrical hemlines from the runway to reality is by pairing them with something simple such as plain tee, a ruffle tee, or crew-neck top; even a button down, crisp white shirt will do the trick. When you mix basic with abstract you can amp up a simple outfit, or bring a runway art piece to the street.

So what do you think? Will you try the asymmetrical hemline trend for spring?
