We’re back from New York! More on that tomorrow—going to do a little travel diary post of sorts—but wanted to share what was my favorite outfit of the trip. ;)

20+ Things, 6/14

Toddler Gingham Dress | 20+ Things 6/14

^ Loved going to Coalfire Pizza on the Southport Corridor last week! Such a nice family outing. Snapped this photo of the girls and it’s one of my all-time favorites!

$18 Toddler Gingham Dress / Girls’ Gingham Dress / $17.90 Amazon Essentials Sandals (Check back regularly as they come in and out of stock every few days. SO soft. Run a tad big. Lucy wears a 7 and Emma wears an 11.)

Yawn. Hello!

Here are the first 20+ things that come to mind:

Mitch’s Summer Capsule Wardrobe for Men

Mens Summer Capsule Wardrobe

Summer Mitch here!

By popular demand 😆, I present the latest in my Capsule Wardrobe series. Summer clothes lend themselves to a capsule wardrobe, so today I’m sharing a whole season’s worth of super simple pieces made from light-and-easy materials that are easily rearranged into dozens of outfits.

Let’s get to it!

Recent Finds, 6/11

tuckernuck hydrangea dress | Recent Finds 6/11

Use code “SKIMM” to take 20 percent off the Tuckernuck site—including the Hydrangea Dress! It runs slightly large. I go down one size in this style from the brand. (Wearing an XS here.) The Royal Shirt Dress is the classic one. Comes in wrinkle-resistant material and cotton versions, too. (Cotton version is a little longer, btw.)

I’m excited about today’s Recent Finds! (Publishing a day early so you can use code “SKIMM” to take 20 percent off the Tuckernuck site today.) Have some pretty great ones for you. :)

Did You Dance?

chicago kids dance dress rehearsal

Were you in dance when you were a kid? Or do you have a child who danced/dances?

I did tap—and to be honest, I didn’t love it. 😆 I think I just didn’t enjoy organized activities as a kid; I wanted to be home, running around the neighborhood with my best friend Katie. I also had stage fright. (Nearly threw up on recital day. Fun times.)

Because of this, I was a bit hesitant to sign Emma up for dance, but she’s so, so different than I was as a child. She was dying to get into a dance class, and really needed the social interaction this past year because she spent the majority of it home with us doing remote learning. So I signed her up for a session that a couple of her friends were in, and boom. I’ve never seen her happier.

Can I make these posts a regular thing? They’re somewhat cathartic.
