Shop It // Summer Sales

Good Morning!  How is your week going?  We are having a fun week of baseball and girl time.  Preston is attending a baseball camp at Rice University this week, which is about a 45 min drive for us (with no traffic).  And because it's only 4 hours long, a drive back home is really not worth it.  So, Lyla and I have been hanging out and getting a little shopping in at some shops near the University.  She is so funny now and really enjoys shopping and trying on clothes.  I feel like she has grown up so much and is now becoming a fun little shopping buddy :) 

I shared this picture below yesterday on instagram, of this cute cover-up from Anthropolgie I've been crushing on lately.  It was a little more than I wanted to spend at the original price, so you can imagine how excited I was to find it on sale yesterday while we were out and about!  I just love it!

I was also browsing on J.Crew Factory's website last night and they are having a CLEAR THE CLEARANCE SALE, and are offering an additional 50% off clearance prices with the code EXTRA50!  It's definitely worth checking out, but it ends tonight so you need to hurry.


And have you shopped any of the Nordstrom's Anniversary Sale?  I ordered this (in the gray) and this (in the ivory), but still waiting for them to arrive in the mail.  Because it continues through Aug 4th, I'm thinking Lyla and I may pop in there one day this week while Preston finishes up camp to see if there is anything else I can't live without ;)


Are there any other good summer sales going on right now?  I would love to hear what deals you've scored :)


Have a great day!

Fresh Mango Salsa

Good Morning!  I hope everyone had a lovely weekend!  My husband went on a fishing trip last week and came home with lots of trout and redfish.  We did our usual grilling some and frying some, but because he likes to make it all pretty quick after he catches it (while it's still fresh) we needed another way to prepare it, so we tried fish tacos with fresh mango sauce.  We used the mango salsa both as a topping and dip and it was so yummy!  The recipe is from my SIL.  She made it on our last beach trip paired with shrimp which is also really scrumptious!

And the best part is that it is super easy to make!
