Hi, my name is Lindsey. And I'm addicted to chambray.

No, seriously. I think I have 12 total OOTD posts thus far and like 5 of them have chambray in them somehow. Maybe it's the main piece, or maybe just worn under something but it's there. Maybe I shot myself in the foot by buying 3 of them because there's always one available. And let's be real, they pretty much go with anything! I think I may need an intervention!









Chambray: Walmart $5.00
Jeans: American Eagle @ Goodwill $4.00
Shoes: Target $10.00
Necklace: Target (old)
Earrings: Given to my by my sister
Watch: vintage; given to me by my grandma



Let me just say, this 72ยบ weather is glorious! I hope it is here to stay! It was an absolutely perfect day for opening day at the little league park. Unfortunately, Izzy's game wasn't any better than her practice. She ran off the field crying 3 times. She says she wants to quit. I'm kind of unsure about whether we should let her or not. I've always told my kids that I will never make them participate in anything they don't want to do BUT, if they ask to do something, they have to finish it. They've made a commitment to a team and I don't want them to think it's ok to just quit things and give up. But, gosh! Seeing her out on that field, chest heaving, hollering for us is brutal! Any of you moms out there have any advice?


She may hate it but how stinkin cute is she in her little uniform!

Because I was craving ice cream Izzy toughed it out and finished the game, we went out for ice cream afterwards.


My S'mores sundae! Yum!

  4. I'm glad I'm not the only one with a chambray addiction! I sooo agree with you, they are just so easy to throw on and somehow they make anything look polished and put together. I love your white jeans! I am tempted to try(?) the distressed look but don't want to pay much for them. Congrats on the find!

  5. PS. Following you too (I thought I had already clicked the button the last time I was on...but it wasn't showing up on my feed)

    Also, I wish I had advice for your daughter...but we are just coming into that stage. Our son will just be old enough for sports this summer! So I'm sure I'll be asking the same thing!

    1. I was on the hunt for my jeans for a while also. The good thing about the Goodwill is they get new things in everyday. It's my new favorite store! haha I guess we'll wait it out through a few more games and see how she does...I can't torture her with tball! Ha! And my husband is even worse, he was ready to go home right then and there! Daddys have a soft spot for their daughters! ;)

  10. Very cute! I've never worm chambray before because I'm a little unsure about how it would look with my very pale skin, but it does look great!

  12. I am totally addicted to chambray. It's my go-to. When I got pregnant and mine didn't fit anymore, it was my first must-have purchase. Such a cute look!

  15. I don't own a single chambray. So bizarre! I guess I just throw on my jean jacket when I want a denim look but getting a little toasty for that. Super cute look! American eagle is def coming around with their clothes! Love your shoes!

  18. Oh it's so tough when the kiddos want to quit something. For both of my girls I have made them stick it out and am glad they did. They both eventually ended up liking it. Anything new or tough is always an adjustment. Izzy looks so darn cute in her baseball outfit!

    I can't agree more that chambray rocks and is definitely a wardrobe staple. You also can't beat a $5.00 top from Walmart. You look great! Heather
