my outfit: white pants!

I'm having a blast wearing white pants already this season... I (only) have three pairs! How about you? Do you have them? Do you have your eye on a pair? Are you wearing them yet?


This ultra wide leg pair is a fun and classic style. They are perfect for every day wear and can be dressed up a bit if need be as well. I'm keeping it classic here with a leopard print belt, a chambray shirt and some bangle bracelets.



The number one thing I hear in response to wearing white pants is: "Oh, but don't they stain so easy?" Yes, I get little spots on them here and there throughout the day - it comes with the territory of kids, carpools and life in general. But I just take extra care to wipe a spot if I see one before the day is done (baby wipes are great for this!) and at the end of the day either spot check them before putting them back in the closet or I spray them with spot cleaner before popping them in the wash. (I do all whites on HOT too - seems to help keep them white).


I am getting a ton of use out of these nude sandals... I bought them last season and was excited to get them out again this season. I love the "barely there" look of them... perfect for warm days!

My toe nail polish is No Spain, No Gain by OPI... I am over the moon about the color. Not quite purple, not quite pink... some where deliciously in between. I think I could wear this color all summer!
