Getting Personal in my Summer Whites

Plus, it’s 25% off this weekend and perfect for summer. I paired mine with my latest investment, these platforms. I bought them 2 weeks ago and have worn them 6 times!! I know they are super pricey, but when I find something I can’t stop thinking about for 3 months, I know I’ll wear them over and over.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what I represent on LunchPails lately. I think for most of you it’s a shopping guide, because it is. We provide so much content on here, that some of the posts I’m most proud of, the posts that give you an idea of who I am in real life get lost in the mix. My most personal post on here is this Real Mom post. In this 3 things..post I open up about my life with a life coach and the self doubt I’m constantly working through. Ugh, #3 is still hard for me to read. Remember when Jeff and I slept in a human nest overlooking the Pacific Ocean? Gosh, I wanna go back. This post announcing my engagement is one I love. It also makes me miss my healthy hair. Obviously this post from my wedding day last September is my favorite! I still cry when I look at these photos, seeing the support and love from our closest group of family and friends is the most special feeling.

You never know what life will throw at you. If someone would have told me 5 years ago that I’d be sitting at my computer in my home in California writing a post for a blog called LunchPails and Lipstick while my husband is teaching the kids about summer gardening and our deaf bulldog is staring at me from the window..I would have thought it was a dream.

Dream BIG.
