May Wish List


Happy May!  Spring has officially sprung in most parts of the country, and I can tell that summer is on its way.  My May wish list includes some nice springy pieces that will transition well for the warmer months ahead.  While I can’t fit into most “normal” clothing now, I can’t help but keep an eye on all the cute non-maternity new releases.

I just bought these white slip-on Sperrys and I think they will go well with dresses, shorts and jeans.  I like when people wear Converse Chuck Taylors (and I did almost buy this pair) but I’m just not edgy enough to feel like I can pull them off…but preppy white Sperrys I can handle.

I am in love with this striped shoulder-tie one-piece swimsuit and would buy it for post-baby if I had not already bought this very similar striped one-shoulder swimsuit.  Although I am moving to Hawaii so I could probably justify both 🙂

I’ve seen Julia from Gal Meets Glam wear these ruffled seersucker shorts a few times recently on Instagram and I love the look of them.  Perfect for wearing with a tucked in oxford or t-shirt.  If I wasn’t pregnant I would totally scoop these up.

When I go to the beach I like to wear a baseball cap.  They stay on better than sun hats do when it’s windy, which is essential when you’re wrangling a toddler.  I have a seersucker baseball cap from J.Crew that is about 5 years old and I wear it almost every day at the beach.  It’s starting to get beat up so I’m thinking I need this pink baseball cap.  I like caps that don’t have logos or anything on them, so this simple pink hat looks perfect.

This scalloped tote is so on-trend right now, and only $49!  It’s a really nice color for spring and summer too.

I saw this white eyelet top at the store a few days ago and really fell in love.  I’m a sucker for white tees because you can wear them with everything.  Most of mine are pretty boring, but I like having a few with a little more detail or feminine touches.  The eyelet on this top is really pretty.

Every time I see these striped tie-front flats in the J.Crew Catalogue I fall in love.  They are so adorable, aren’t they?

    The scalloped shorts are ADORABLE! I love those. Heading over to order them now! We are going to Martha's Vineyard in May and I think they would be perfect!

    I love that swimsuit! I have yet to find one for the summer, hopefully that happens soon.

    Those shorts would be perfect for Martha's Vineyard! New England in the late spring/summer is so nice (Tom is from Maine…I'm too afraid to visit in winter lol). Chances are I'll end up buying the shorts too and will wear them later this year…fingers crossed.

    Isn't it cute? I've had such great luck with J.Crew swimsuits over the years. They never disappoint and last a really long time! Good luck with your search 🙂
