JULY HAPPENINGS RECAP + TOP 10

When July ends it is funny how the brain switched to instant Fall mode even though it will be hot here in Texas until December! School is getting close, vacations are ending and routine is starting up again!

We had a fun filled July filled with a family vacation to The Bahamas! BLOG POST coming soon. It is almost finished! 😉 My oldest went to away camp for a week and LOVED it. My middle son gets to go next summer and he is so excited.

Fall fashion is starting to hit the racks and it is my favorite season to style outfits. There are some exciting things I have been sharing over on Instagram, like cleaning tips, organizing kids rooms, decorating my office and so much more. Be sure to follow along there for all the details. Blog posts coming soon! Click here to subscribe to the blog, so you will be alerted. Don’t worry, I won’t spam you. 🙂 It is just an email alert that I have a new blog post up!

I love recapping the best sellers for each month. This gives me an idea of what you guys are loving and what I need to show more of! Since the Nordstrom Sale hit mid July a lot of the favorites for July are from the sale. Let’s get started on the top 10!
