This post has two of my favorite parts of summer: Lilly shift dresses and Jack Rogers sandals. It’s a tried and true combination. You can’t go wrong! Zappos carries both brands, and you can really create an endless number of options for outfits. One stop shop and really fast, free shipping. (Whenever I am unsure of a size for shoes, I always pick Zappos because the shipping is so fast. I order two and return– with free return shipping– the one that doesn’t fit.)
This particular Lilly dress spoke to me. The print is bright and punchy, which ended up being ideal for this somewhat overcast but still warm day. I also love that the lace detailing on the front breaks up the shift and makes it a little bit more interesting.
I have a ton of Jack Rogers sandals from over the years, but I decided to mix it up with this double strap style. While it’s a little different than the favorite Navajo sandal, it still has that classic Jack Rogers look and feel. (I’m just going to throw it out there that they’re way more comfortable and don’t need to be broken in!!)
I have been seriously considering getting those style Jacks for a while but I feel as though they look so weird on me! I have 4 pairs of the classic Navajo's – but I am afraid that these are also even harder to break in than my other ones! I see you think that they are more comfortable – but my friends said that they were harder to break in! would you recommend getting them? They look so good on you! xo, Mary thedashofclass.com
Carly – that fuscia lipstick looks *incredible* on you. What a gorgeous choice for spring 🙂
On a more serious level, thank you for the thought, insight, and honesty you put into this blog. You strike a really lovely balance between fun/aspirational topics (like Lilly and Jack) and more serious concerns, like adjusting to adulthood, managing relationships, and reaching one's potential. You are a gem and the work you do it important.
I’ve been loving wearing my scarf collection and I’ve been getting questions about how I tie them! This is probably the way I wear it most- it’s super easy and the trick is to not be overly fussy with it. Go for it and zhuzh it up a little but don’t make it too perfect! Goal is effortless!
Fold the silk scarf across the middle to create a long triangle. Holding the two corners, twist the triangle back *towards* you a few times. While holding the corners, wrap behind your neck crossing behind you and pulling the corners back to the front of your neck. Tie once, then again to secure. I like to tuck mine into a button down!
PS I got this Hermes scarf as a souvenir while in Paris!
A wild Saturday night around here… and I wouldn’t want it any other way! A relaxing shower, clean hair, cozy bedtime routine, sourdough, laundry, a clean playroom, mahjong, (a little sweet treat… or two), needlepoint, skincare, and a good book! What could be better???
An evening routine as a mom of two with timestamps!
@mackenziechilds has done it again! Say hello to Mocha Check, the latest pattern in the MacKenzie-Childs family. I am loving how the neutral but warm tones brighten up my office space! Swipe to see how I’ve incorporated the pieces throughout my office. #MCPartner #MCMochaCheck

OMG I just bought a Lilly dress for my sister's graduation that is almost identical!! Mine has the lace that stops halfway down, but same print! 🙂
I love that Lilly and totally prefer the new double strap Jacks! They're darling with that dress!

You look so pretty! This dress looks fab on you and I'm totally swooning over your Jack Rogers. I've been dying to grab these but keep putting it off!
