#SeeSummerBetter styled with my in home trial

If you aren't familiar with Warby Parker you can read about them in my first #SeeSummerBetter post here! I got my in home trial (you seriously have to check out this program!!) and I have finally styled them with some of my favorite summer looks!


Here I put the Raglan frames in 'Jet Black' with some of my maternity favorites. I liked these frames because they were a staple everyday wear. They were a bit small for my face but I really liked the style!
Shorts: Old Navy (on sale!) Tank: Old Navy Watch (old): similar style Wrap bracelet (old): similar- Stella & Dot


I love these Piper frames, very retro chic! The slightly go up at the sides and were super flattering! I think this is perfect for a bridal shower or afternoon event!

 Skirt: Ted Baker (a pre-bump favorite!) Faux leather sleeved top (old): similar Bag: Kate Spade (old) Lip: NARS satinlip in Yu


The Reilly lenses are a dead tie for my favorite with the beach glass, which I will get to. I love the bigger frame, and the Marzipan Tortoise is perfection! I am a sucker for Tortoise shell, but these babies were something special- definitely on my wish list! :) I paired these with a typical work day outfit because I would likely wear them every.single.day! 




The Crossfield frames in 'Polished Gold' are the perfect cool, summer casual outfit. In fact I wore this last weekend and loved the way it looked together! 

Dress: Target Maternity Heels: Lucky Brand - super comfy! Necklace: Jcrew (old) 





Lastly, the Jennings sunnies in 'Beach Glass' could they be any more perfect for a beach day? I loved these lenses! They are great for many face shapes, not too over sized and the color is perfection! 
Swimsuit: Target Maternity


Overall I was SUPER happy with the quality & style of my Warby Parker in home try on! I would highly recommend it to anyone. It is totally free & hassle free as well!

Post- Vacation Monday's...

If there is one thing I can say about Monday's is they are terrible... especially when you are coming back after a few days of sun, relaxation and fun!

I got home last night from a little girls getaway and was instantly in a funk. I would love to be back sitting by the pool in the beautiful Florida sunshine, but for now I am going to have to get over it!

In the spirit of looking on he positive side here are three things that made coming home better:

1. Seeing Oliver & Clo! I sure did miss these boys while I was gone. I can't imagine how much harder being away will get once our little one arrives!

2. I was SO happy to come home to see that Oliver had moved all of the furniture out of our once spare room, into what will be the new spare room & got a jump start on the nursery! ( I may have subtly mentioned this would be a good idea while I was away- holy type A!) 

I am loving the wall color & the way the furniture looks in there, way more spacious than I envisioned! I will be on the hunt for the smaller pieces now like a rug, wall art & bedding. Here's a sneak peek of the color palette we are using to get an idea of what her room will be like- I am substituting the brass for a gold tone of course!




3. Lastly, getting my Warby Parker home try on kit in the mail.  I was hoping it would come before I left so I could style it up in FL, especially these Jennings Beach Glass shades. Stay tuned for how I #SeeSummerBetter with some new specs from WP! 



How was your weekend? What do you do to recover from the Monday Blues?

#SeeSummerBetter

Let me tell you a little bit about Warby Parker in case you're not familiar.

Warby Parker is an eye wear company founded on the simple principal that style and quality does not have to come at lofty cost and should be available for all. They really do mean ALL, for every pair of glasses purchased they give away a pair to someone in need, read more about their Buy a pair, Give a pair campaign here.

A company that can combine style, reasonable prices and philanthropy is a company I am willing to attach my name to!

So here are a few frames that I am waiting to get in the mail with WP's Home Try-On program! You can choose five pairs totally FREE and try them out for five days, keep what you like, send the rest back! Stay tuned to see how I style these frames & check things off my Summer Bucket List!


I loved these Crossfield sunnies in "polished gold" I think these are perfect for an afternoon BBQ. I would pair these with a more causal look. Think: jean shorts, loose tank & strappy sandals!


 "Jet Black" color for these Raglan frames are super chic and classic. I would wear these with a black dress, red lip & heels for outdoor patio drinks (mocktails for me!) turned into dinner somewhere fabulous in the city!  I'm channeling my DC days with these babies!


I love the beachy vibe I get from the Jennings very appropriately named "beach glass". If you haven't already guessed, these are my beach or pool day frames. Cute suit and lots of SPF! 


There are few things I love more than a vintage inspired piece, and these Piper frames speak to me! I think these would be perfect for an afternoon wedding (if you've been following along you know we have no shortage of these!) They are glamerous enough for a wedding and would be dressed perfectly with a colored lip, lots of volume for my hair & some pearls! 
 

Then there are the Reilly in Marzipan Tortoise these caught my eye from the second I landed on Warby Parker. I love a good tortoise shell- these pretties look like they belong to me. I think I am going to have a hard time not adding these to my collection, and wearing them daily! 

 

Head on over to Warby Parker to #SeeSummerBetter in some fabulous new frames!
