Hope everybody had a wonderful weekend! Well, technically it’s not over yet. It’s only 2:30 PM in California. But given the fact that Molly goes to bed at 6 PM our day is starting to wind down. This weekend’s been pretty great as we just spend it together and had some quality family time. I especially liked today because we really focused on a healthier life for our family! We started the day with this amazing unicorn smoothie bowl that I shared the recipe HERE. Then we chilled at home while Molly napped and made a healthy lunch from home as well! Then we decided to head out for a little bit and enjoy the day. It’s not nearly as hot in LA today as it’s been the last week so we really wanted to take it advantage of it. Plus I just bought so many new cute clothes recently that I just want to get out of the house so I have an excuse to wear them! You guys know what I mean, when you buy new clothes you can’t just have them sit in the closet you have to wear them!
The super cute peplum top I’m wearing is so fun to wear and it’s affordable! It’s only $39! I absolutely love the structure of this top and it’s shaped in a way that it’s loose fitting but very flattering at the same time. I think that’s because the fabric is really good quality. It’s a new favorite of mine for sure.
I’m obsessed with the jeans I’m wearing because I pretty much only wear high-waisted jeans these days. Ever since I had Molly, my stomach just isn’t the same and especially in the past month, because I put on a few pounds, I feel like if I wear anything but high-waisted jeans I’m just hanging over the side of them. These jeans are jegging’s but what I like about them is they don’t have a ton of stretch. I like a little bit of stretch in my jeans but not so much that they feel like straight up leggings (and therefore those kind of jeggings feel cheap). So these jeans are a great balance between stretch and quality jean that I really love! Plus right now if you buy one pair you can get a second pair for like $20 which is such a good sale! You guys know I’m a sucker for a good sale. I’m wearing a size 6R FYI (but they are slightly snug. I could have gotten an 8). I’m normally a size 28.
And my red purse! 😍😍😍 I’ve been on the hunt for a really vibrant and chic red cross body bag for a while now. And this one is just perfect. If I wasn’t caring the purse, the outfit just wouldn’t have the same pop! Carrying a red purse is such an easy way to add a pop of color to any outfit that you’re putting together. The purse is under $50 and by Sole Society by the way (my fave!). And so are my fringe heels! I’m sure you recognize these heels because I wear them all the time. They’re just so damn comfortable that I don’t even feel like I’m wearing a heel. And they’re right on trend with the fringe.
Molly’s little white dress with stars is also on sale right now for like 40% off I believe (it’s under $20!). And I linked a hat from the same company that made hers below but it’s slightly different than the one she’s wearing. I couldn’t find the one she’s wearing on the site anymore. But it’s the same material.
Hope you all had a great weekend and are able to soak up every second of the rest of your Sunday! Love you guys!

OMG obsessed with this peplum top 😍
SO cute right?
What size did you pick up in the top?
do you wear strapless bra with this top?
Yes
Molly is so Kevin!
Seriously! His mini me
Oh, by the way, are you hinting that you are pregnant by saying how tired you are wearing this top that covers you tummy? It kind of looks that way!!
Ha. I wish I was! But I’m not.
How would this shirt be as a maternity? I LOVE this, but my bump is slowly but surely growing. (15 weeks) Does this shirt have any stretch to it? Or how do you think it’d fit a pregnant belly?
Who makes the mirrored sunnies you have been wearing? Love 😎!!
What an adorable set of photos! Love the dress and the red bag on you! 🙂

Hey Ali, what’s the recipe book where all the good clean food is coming from? I NEED that in my life!!
I love how honest and open you are about everything 🙂 I have the same problem with my stomach and high waisted shorts and pants have been very helpful at hiding those trouble areas!! Love reading your blog! Keep up the good work!! P.S. Molly is adorable!! 😊
Can you please post that Sweet Potato salad recipe? It looks AMAZING! Thanks!
Hey Ali! What size are you wearing in the peplum top. All the reviews say it runs large but wondering if you agree and if so, how many sizes to go down. Thanks! Also, where are you amazing sunglasses from that you have been wearing (you wore them to go shopping a few days ago). Ps, yay for Bachelorette Monday! 💜🌹
I LOVE this peplum! Do you know if they are restocking? They only have Xlarge left.
Adorable family and outfit! You look great! The last couple of years I have been on a health journey (not diet) and a few weeks ago fit into size 10 pants 🙂 Feels good to feel good. I love high waisted pants in general the older I’ve gotten haha! Just turned 33 today 😉
