Wear Now Fall Fashion – Shop Walmart!

A big thanks to Walmart for compensating me for this post!

Happy first day of September! To kick it off, Mr. Weather gave us a nice brisk morning.

We may not be ready for flannels and sweaters just yet, but it’s coming, and the cute fall fashion is rolling out. I have rounded up a couple ‘WEAR NOW’ items from the Walmart Fall Fashion lines that are super cute and affordable!

Say hello to comfort! Or style! Either way, I LOVE these Time and Tru sneakers! They are padded in all the right places and run true to size.

You can never have too many basic tees, and this one by Free Assembly hits all the marks! It is mid length so you can add a little half tuck easily if you want, and the material is extra soft. I find myself constantly grabbing the heathered carbon color because it pairs with everything. I am wearing my normal XS and it fits just right!

Walmart continues to impress me with quality clothing that is on trend. Shop it all on Walmart before popular items sell out.

Zella From The NSALE!

These ✌🏻Zella pieces are included in the NSALE, and they were an instant keeper for me! The top is brighter in person (SO PRETTY🤩) and the fit/feel of the pants is amazing! 🙌🏼 For reference, I am wearing my normal size XS in both. You can browse all of the Zella included in the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale HERE.

Hit The Pool With These Great Water Games!

#WalmartPartner

Water activities are an easy way to keep entertained and cool this summer! If you’re in a summer rut, Walmart makes it easy to grab a few new toys without spending a lot. Curbside pickup is always a great option if you need items the same day! They also offer speedy shipping!

From a simple game of Uno to fancier fun like Pop-a-Shot for the pool, these water games are sure to please the whole family.

Some of our favorites…

Aqua Kids Water Volleyball – This ball has an easy to hold grip coating and is softer than a traditional volleyball. It does not soak up water and allows for lots of fun in and out of the pool. 

Uno Splash – Uno is a a crowd favorite and this version can get wet! Play on a raft in the pool or let your kids play right on the side of the pool with wet hands.

Waboba Pro Water Bouncing Ball – It takes some practice, but once you get the hang of it, this ball will skip across any body of water. It’s fun to pass back and forth in the ocean or pool. It also floats, so you won’t be diving after it.

Banzai 2-in-1 Cornhole & Pop-a-Shot Pool Game – Bring the games in the pool! This set flips from Cornhole to Pop-a-Shot when you turn it over.

Igloo 25 qt. Picnic Basket Cooler – With a zipper top this cooler is lightweight and has a cute picnic basket style handle. The large opening makes packing and unpacking simple.

Time to get out of the house and enjoy some fresh air and sunshine! With the right items, your backyard can be the place to be this summer. Walmart for the win!

Make your backyard the place to be this summer!

#WalmartPartner

My son has a birthday this month, and I’ve been hunting for a few new outdoor activities to play during his party. I also wanted something we could play as a family throughout the summer. A simple “Backyard Fun For Kids” search on Walmart yielded many great ideas!

I’ve always heard kids hang out at the house with the best snacks; what if you have the best yard games?

I love that I can order from Walmart and have it delivered right to my doorstep in a snap! It blows my mind every time. You’ll also spend less on games and gear to make your backyard a fun-filled space!

Summers are short, so get out and play!

Music: Sunny Musician: @iksonmusic

One of our favorite games has been this Volleyball/Badminton set by Penn. It is compact, easy to set up, and perfect for any backyard get-together.

My daughter is big into volleyball, and my son has been asking to try badminton, so I knew a net would be fun. Outside of school gym class, this was his first badminton experience. We didn’t keep score, but he had a blast counting our hits!

The net’s height and width are adjustable, and it comes with a volleyball! If you watch in the video above, you can see how the extra netting can be tucked away. I purchased the badminton rackets and a few extra birdies separately.

Pajamas OR Outfit — Either Way They’re Great!

Walmart has THE CUTEST pajama pieces that could double as an outfit. The tank and shorts come as a set, and the short sleeve top (on sale for $8!) and pants are sold separately. I was on the fence about returning the pants because they were too big, but I decided to wash and dry them on high heat, and I’m so glad I did! They are the perfect fit and only get softer wash after wash! I am wearing a size small (4-6). Scoop these up before they sell out!

Walmart: Basics That Aren’t Basic!

Let’s talk about summer wardrobe essentials. Also known as the pieces you’ll be reaching for all summer long. I’ve rounded up some awesome summer staples that I found on Walmart. These will become your new BFFs when you open your closet.

Of course, white shirts are a must-have piece, so get this Free Assembly ribbed crewneck on your must-have list right now. It’s fitted without hugging and is great for tucking in!

I’ve become a big fan of high rise pull on shorts. Probably a little too much this summer. This particular pair by Free Assembly comes in a few color options. They’re light and comfortable yet polished and put together when you tuck a shirt in.

Free Assembly High Rise Pull On Shorts | Free Assembly Ribbed Crewneck Tee | Reebok Club Memt Shoe

Move over high heels, the ‘Off the Court’ trend is my dream! Pair these adorable Reebok Sneakers with any outfit! They have all the style and comfort you could ask for!

It’s all about making a statement with stripes and color this year! Grab the Blue and White and you will be ready when the Fourth of July rolls around!

Free Assembly Ribbed Crewneck Tee | Free Assembly Women’s High Rise Pull On Shorts | Free Assembly Women’s Smocked Tank Top

I love how on point Walmart has been with their fashion choices. You can shop all of their new arrivals HERE.

Lululemon Favorites!

Lululemon just added new colors in my favorite Cinchable Waist High-Rise Woven Short! These are a dressier mid weight fabric, they sit high on the waist, the legs are airy, and they’re nothing like your typical Lululemon short. I have black and bone, and I just ordered the new utility blue! I’ve been wearing them on repeat this summer because they’re cute, comfortable, and they come out of the dryer wrinkle free! For reference, I typically wear a size 4 in Lululemon, and I am wearing size XS in these.

  • Cinchable Waist High-Rise Woven Short
  • Swiftly Tech Short-Sleeve Shirt 2.0 (Tetra Stripe Vapor/Black/Velvet Dust/Pink Peony)
  • Hood Lite Jacket Soft as butter, and the weight of it makes for a perfect summer jacket!
  • ON Cloud 5 Running Shoes The Lily Frost color is a much softer purple in person than pictured in the stock image.
  • Golden Goose Super-Star

Anthropologie’s Spring Decor Sale is HUGE!

Anthropologie is my favorite store to shop for home decor, and right now they are running Spring’s BIGGEST Decorating Event!! The Gleaming Primrose Mirror is marked 40% off in silver (best price I have seen)! It is beautiful in person and has a hint of gold to it. The mirror above our mantle is the 3′ size.

There are SO MANY great pieces packed into this sale! I’ve outlined a few other items that I have purchased below…

Gilded Agate Coasters are my favorite gift to give. Family members and teachers love them, and coasters are something everyone can use. These are on sale for $9.60 today!

I love the latte kitchen line. We have just about every size Latte Bowl and they add a little pop to your table! The Mini Assorted Shiny Latte Bowls are great for charcuterie boards!

You will find this Tufted Octavia Leopard Rug in our guest bathroom and it makes me smile! Several sizes are marked down, and there is a red version as well!

Anthropologie carries several great side tables! We have this Tree Dwelling Side Table and it’s the perfect size if you don’t want a massive aisleway blocker. This Pavo Bird is super cute too!

I’ll be scrolling this sale all day! <3
