This spring there are so many ruffles and bows on the market! It is a seasonal trend I have fallen in love with. I have found myself filling my closet with ruffle and bows!

I love this black and white checkered blouse from SheIn for spring. It has a playful little ruffle around the bottom and three feminine bows down the back. The fabric is lightweight too; making it perfect for transitioning from spring into summer. Love!

I wore this outfit over the weekend for lunch, and shopping, with my friend Laura and her cute little baby Mason. You might know Laura from Have Need Want. Her baby is so cute! He is six months old, and has the cutest little smile. I had the honor of holding him for awhile and it was so nice. It reminded me of when my kids were little like that. I do miss those baby days-except for maybe the diapers. haha

This black and white gingham blouse is so much fun. I cannot wait to wear it throughout the spring season, and into the summer months. It will look cute with denim shorts too. You can find it online here for only $20! This is such a great deal on a beautiful blouse. Love it!

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.

Thanks for stopping by!

No-one can deny, ruffles are a huge trend for the spring 2017 season. We saw them on the runways, and then they took the streets by storm. Of course the ruffle trend did not just start now, it started a few seasons ago, and this season is has exploded beyond belief!

It seems as if everywhere I turn this spring season I see ruffles! It is almost like they are chasing me around! Well, I love ruffles for spring, and I am happy they are everywhere! There is something carefree and fun about ruffles. They are playful and light; making any outfit fabulous and fun at the same time. Love!

I was so thrilled to find this pale pink blouse for under $30. Not only does it offer a carefree silhouette, it has ruffles! Oh the fun of it! My daughters love it too, they think it is so much fun. It is really comfortable with my loose fitting boyfriend jeans. This has turned into my go-to casual look for spring when I want to feel comfortable yet pulled together.

What do you think of the ruffle trend for spring? Are you wearing ruffles for spring, if so, how do you like to wear them?
