On of my fav combos for any weather.
Tight top + wide leg pants.
It can be varied in so many ways! In warmer weather add sandals, in colder weather…booties and a jacket.
On vacation, it’s so easy to pack a bunch of tanks and loose fitting pants!
And…that’s what I did!
I hadn’t taken pictures for the first 4 days of our vacation. I was so OVER my camera with my workload leading up to our vacation that I needed a break. But…I knew I’d regret not taking pictures, so I busted out the tripod outside of our room.
We didn’t take these pictures until after the sun had set…
The light was dreamy though!
Not going to be able to do this much longer!!
Meanwhile…people coming down our walkway always….
Don’t mind us!
On me…
Tank- Feel the Piece (eBay)
Sandals- Koolaburra “Alexa” (eBay)
On Maya…
Romper- Art Room via Target (thrifted)
Clogs- Sven “4” Lacey Platforms” (C/O)
Keeping it Real…
Yeah, when you take pictures in the walkway in front of your room…people walk by.
But…the timer keeps going, so….carry on!!Hahaha.
Maya-
Maya-“What’s that dance you did in the olden days?”
Well…not MY olden days, but…my parents, yes!
The SWIM!
Spot on.
(all pictures taken with a shutter release and tripod, except ones of Maya :))
Mom…spread your arms out wide like you’re flying…
I KNEW what she meant, but…I mean. I had to.
Me once again not realizing where I need to be and dancing out of the frame…
This face…
As the sun went down, I switched angles…
Maya is actually wearing boys jeans. I am not afraid to buy from the boys section when thrifting! Roll them up, and they are super cute and comfy boyfriend jeans!
LOOOOOVE this next one!
A glimpse into the future tween and teen years…
BUT THEN…
My same goofy girl that just wants to run in for a hug!
and I want to eat her up.
So….I took a picture of Maya and then my camera went wonky. It would take a picture, but wouldn’t show me what it took.
And failing 🙂
She loooooves to play with my phone.
It’s actually fun for me to go back and look at all the pictures and videos she’s taken on my phone! I complain about it and tell her NOT to…but…I secretly like it later.
The trigger on the top of my camera fell off, so she was like “Uh oh…no more pictures!”
It was SO windy when we got to the beach, and I was worried we wouldn’t be able to get any shots! I actually LOVE how the wind made our hair crazy! Definitely good for a laugh!
I jumped in for a few 🙂
Looooove.
One of my favs!
Almost blew her over!
Because it was so windy, I couldn’t hear when the shutter would go off. SO…there’s a lot of me checking the remote.
Looooove!
And…I took another 
and then….so subdued…
But that LIGHT!???
I can’t even… 
Yeah, this is what I envisioned most of the images looking like haha.
Can you see what I wanted to do here?
These were one of the first flares that I chopped. They are my FAV!! And…the ones that started the chopping addiction ha!
Baby Birks!! DYING!
These next images are some of my absolute favs of us!
And….Maya totally schooling me on the art of posing!
Always a neighbor or FIVE that walks by…and usually when I’m taking pics ALONE!
Looooove this next one!
Another day was “Fancy Fingernails”
Maya on a rock…is her comfort zone…
OMG. This is hands down my new favorite picture of Maya!
And yet…this is also so her.
Then…we got some together again as the sun was fully down.
We flipped it around and shot the other way…
But, it’s a lot harder to focus when things are heavily backlit…
I DID NOT GIVE UP THOUGH! hahaha.
And…here’s the picture I actually took with my phone as I finished Maya’s hair.
I’m all about small cross body bags when I go out. Easy to wear and not at all cumbersome!
AND…I even managed to coerce the Huz out for a few!!
Maya was not as happy about it. She was a little bummed that we were leaving her behind…
I knew it would get chilly in the evening, so I brought along this leather bomber.
I think it’s such a fun alternative to the classic biker leather jacket! 
And these sandals are SO comfy! I accidentally wrapped them oppositely, but I kind of like it!
Dying over this vintage Hanna Andersson dress!!
