After sharing my top 5 Trader Joe’s finds a few months ago (see that post here), I received such great feedback I thought I would share another Trader Joe’s related post with new finds. With new discoveries each time I visit the store, this could turn into a quarterly series! As I mentioned in my last Trader Joe’s post, I usually don’t find my weekly groceries at TJ’s. I use it more for speciality products and snacks. I find it difficult to shop there for “everyday items” because they might not always have, for example, asparagus in stock. However, if I am looking for snacks and other non-staples, Trader Joe’s is great. Here is another Trader Joe’s haul: 6 new finds.

Happy Monday, friends! Can you even believe that we are over half way done with August? With summer vacations wrapping up and kids heading back to school, it’s really starting to set in: fall will be here in no time! And while the current temperatures may not be reflecting the fall season, if you are looking for a fall dress that can be worn now, look no further. This is a must-have fall dress that can be worn now and later into fall, just by changing up the accessories.

I honestly don’t think I can think of a better color and pattern combination! After sharing one of fall’s hottest color trends last week (you can see the post here), I am back today with another fall trend. This time, it’s two trends for fall: a color and pattern. Here is my favorite inspiration for another round up of fall trends: magenta and animal print.

As summer begins to wind down, I have been trying to work in all our favorite summer recipes while I can. We usually have pizza once a week on Fridays, so I am trying to fill the next few Fridays with a few summer pizza recipes. After find squash for a great price at the store, I stocked up. It’s one of my favorite vegetables to add to our cauliflower rice (more about cauliflower rice here) which has been our go-to for weeknight meals lately. Having some squash left over, I decided to incorporate this vegetable into a pizza. This Summer Squash Pizza is a fresh and delicious summer pizza recipe.

There is nothing like a good little black dress. I probably have a few too many in my closet, but when you consider it’s versatility, I don’t think having too many is a possibility! And that especially goes for one that you can wear to your 9-5. I picked up this cute fit and flare black dress at the same time I bought the pink one in this post. I knew this simple black dress would be the perfect wear to work dress for summer and fall.

I know we are still in the first part of August, but place this is the “save for later” category. Truthfully, I only started thinking about fall clothes this past week. Overall, the summer hasn’t been too hot in D.C., but this past week has been brutal. The humidity has to be between 90% and 95% with temperatures in the 90s. Needless to say I’m ready for the cooler temperatures! I was reflecting back on some of my favorite ways to start incorporating more fall-like pieces into my wardrobe by late August. From jackets and cardigans to olive green and chambray shirts, here are my tips on how to transition your wardrobe from summer to fall.

It’s hard to believe fall is just around the corner. Where did summer go? Each fall, I like to take a look at colors that are trending for the new season. While burgundy, olive green and cognac will always be considered fall colors, over the next few weeks I will be looking at other, not so assuming, colors to wear this autumn. It’s not a surprise that Pantone’s Color of the Year has made it’s way to fall. However, the great thing about this lavender shade is that you can start wearing it now! A color that works for both summer and fall is the perfect way to transition your wardrobe for the new season. Here are my picks for fall (and summer!) lavender inspiration:

These days, I feel like a cauliflower rice expert. Richard has been embracing the Keto diet for about two months now. I lasted a little over a week (haha – I can’t live without carbs!) but I’m so impressed with his commitment to this lifestyle change. Dinners can be challenging, but cauliflower rice has become one of our best friends. It’s something he can eat while on Keto and something I actually like. Whether it’s served as a side or as the main course, this buffalo chicken cauliflower rice is a new favorite.

While we still have a good portion of August remaining, I am mentally preparing myself for fall. The heat returned this weekend which had me even more excited for the cooler temperatures. Since there is still time to wear your summer pieces, I thought I would share this pink linen dress I picked up a few weeks ago. The great thing about buying summer pieces this time of the year is that they are typically on sale. Wear these finds now or stock up for next spring and summer!
