Recent Outfits as a Petite Mom Who is Always Trying to Balance Cute and Practical Style

Like everyone else, I am excited for long summer days, colorful outfits, and school being out. My kids get out this week and they are so excited and can’t wait! Here are some of the outfits I’ve been wearing as we lead up to these days. As usual, I like to keep my outfits simple enough to be able to run around and chase my kiddos in, but also cute enough to feel good and like myself. It’s a balance that is sometimes difficult and sometimes easy, depending on weather, what we have going on, and how my body is feeling that day (and if it’s that time of the month, haha). But for the most part, I feel like I was able to do it with these looks. What do you think?

I linked each outfit under each photo. I do use affiliate links, which just means I earn a small commission (at no additional cost to you) if you purchase anything using my links. I appreciate your support more than you know, as it helps me to keep creating content.

Love linen and cotton together. It’s a winning combo for summer!

cooler days call for cozier outfits, but I love this gauze cotton button up so much. I think it looks great paired with light wash wide leg jeans.

June activities & outfits

Here are my outfits from the last week! There are a mix of warm weather & cooler weather outfits because it got chilly for a few days. Next week will be in the 90s so expect lots of hot weather styles!

We went to the winery, had a play date, went to church, had a date night out, went strawberry picking, spent time at home, visited the playground, & enjoyed time as family.
