The House That Lars Built

Tuesday Try-On is serving up three summer dresses, all under $50, and honestly...how am I supposed to choose?

🌼 Dress #1: A flower-embroidered sundress that feels like it belongs in a field of wildflowers with a basket of strawberries.

🌸 Dress #2: A floral print number that is giving garden party, farmer’s market, and “yes, I did wake up looking this cheerful.”

💚 Dress #3: A bright grass green dress that practically glows. If summer had an official color, I think this might be it.

The best part? Every single one is under $50, which means you can look like a million bucks while spending significantly less.

Which one gets your vote: 🌼, 🌸, or 💚? Comment DRESSES for the links to shop!

Tuesday Try On but make it a summer personality test ☀️
1. Green striped dress for pretending you summer in the south of France.
2. Business up top, Victorian picnic maiden at the bottom. Honestly? She contains multitudes.
3. The blue chambray dress that shocked me with how good it is and how good the price is (under $40!). Paired with the cutest green shoes that make me feel like I have my life together for exactly 12 minutes.
Which one are you stealing from my closet first?

Tuesday Try-On: summer dress edition ☀️

Today’s lineup:

A dreamy, flowy number that makes you want to twirl through a farmers market with an iced drink in hand.
A blue-and-white striped dress with a tailored fit and belted sash that says, “Yes, I do have my life together,” even if I absolutely do not.

AND somehow both are under $50 which feels medically impossible these days.

One is breezy artist-on-holiday energy, the other is coastal grandmother goes to a meeting. Naturally, I want both personalities at all times.

Which one are you picking?? Comment DRESSES to shop both!

Mother’s Day can bring up complicated feelings and I’ve experienced them all. I’m really grateful to grow and learn at every stage of life in this complicated and beautiful, magical, and humbling adventure we call motherhood and life. It’s expanded my capacity to love and see others pain. Happy Mother’s Day to you in whatever way you experience it.

Brittany Jepsen calls tin embossing low effort, high-reward. She shared some examples and how to do it.

While I adore wearing dresses, my secret is that I haven’t been much of a nightgown girl until recently. But now, game over. There’s so many good ones and these two are 💯. Comment NIGHTGOWN for the link to shop.
