Did you know that Pete and I are going to Edinburgh and London soon? Yep! We are off to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. I am so excited to explore new places. Be sure and follow along on all our travels here. In honor of our upcoming travels, I decided that it’s a great time to feature a London-based brand. Karen Millen is a super chic brand that I discovered at the LTK Conference this year. They offer a wide selection of high-quality, elevated basics that you can wear for years to come. Let’s just say that I am officially in love!

Right now, I wish I was on the beach in Mexico with a fresh squeezed margarita and some homemade guacamole. Laying out in the warm sun and listening to the ocean waves. Doesn’t that sound fantastic?

I have just found the most perfect shirt dress and I have to share it with you. This dress will take me from day to night simply by changing my shoes and accessories. It’s a staple every gal needs in her wardrobe. And these lace up wedge heels are so comfortable that I will wear them all summer long.
OK, don’t laugh. I just learned how to make one of these “wish lists” for the blog. It’s not fancy but I got it done.

Sometimes I purchase them and sometimes they are things I just dream about. Regardless, these are the items that I am currently craving.
