5 Favorites: White Leather Sneakers

livvyland-blog-olivia-watson-flat-lay-outfit-striped-tie-front-top-white-greats-royal-sneakers-one-teaspoon-bandit-shortsI received so many questions about my white leather sneakers while in Scandinavia, so today I’m sharing my exact shoes and four other awesome white sneaker options for y’all!

You can’t go wrong investing in a cute pair of neutral sneaks, they go with EVERYTHING! Trust me, I didn’t think I’d end up wearing mine as often as I did on our trip, but I am so glad I brought them along because they quickly became a daily go-to for me. I LOVE that they’re leather, too – it adds a fashion forward update to a standard pair of white sneakers, definitely recommend a pair!

Easy Summer Style

Summer weather has officially hit Austin…and I’m kinda loving it! We’ve been lucky to have a beautiful spring season, but come 2pm each day this week, that high heat is really in full swing. Growing up in Austin, I’m definitely used to the warmer temperatures and look forward to dressing for the season…hello, adorable cold shoulder top (…in stripes, of course 😉 ), with high rise denim shorts and my go-to ankle booties!

White Tie Sleeve Top

Hey gals! Hope your week was wonderful!! We are officially back home after an incredible two weeks abroad…felt pretty strange to wake up in our own home again, ha! I have a lot of fun travel content headed to LL, but first I wanted to share this adorable white + tie sleeve top with y’all! I should also mention that in preparation for our trip, I stocked up on posts with my photographer…hence, the long + blonde hair, ha. However, internet in the middle of the sea isn’t very fast (…go figure, huh? 😉 ), so rather than get stressed when a post wouldn’t load, I decided to nix the anxiety and go relax around the ship! Much better idea in my book. 😉 Thus, playing catchup and will be posting more spring and summer looks over the next week – starting with this one!

Satin Cami & Platform Mules

Hey gals! Hope your weekend is off to a fabulous start! After a week of absolute madness (no really, 100% shambles in our abode…ah!), we are officially on our way to SCANDINAVIA with Princess Cruises!!! I am currently writing this post from the airplane, patiently awaiting a cold beer so I can slowly get into vacation mode. 😉 I’ll be partnering with Princess for the next 13 days as we visit Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Estonia and Russia…can’t wait to share all of the magic on my blog and Instagram feed – so stay tuned! (Ps. We’re going with quite a few of the same bloggers from our last trip with Princess to the Mediterranean – sooo OMG I am so excited to see everyone again and give giant bear hugs!).

Now that I’ve shared our big travel news (…I’ve basically been bursting at the seams to tell you guys about our trip!), let’s switch gears and get to this adorable spring-to-summer outfit…How cute is that ivory satin cami? I’ve been super into dainty satin tops lately, and this one was just too pretty to pass up (…and also very affordable!).

Mother’s Day Gift Guide With Brahmin

Hello gals! Ohh I am SO excited to finally share a fun post I’ve been working on with the wonderful Brahmin team – my Mother’s Day gift guide! I was a huge fan of Brahmin handbags long before I stepped foot into the blogging world, so it’s been a dream come true to work closely with their team and pick out a few gorgeous pieces that would make incredible gifts for all the fabulous mamas out there!

Brahmin is one of those rare brands that, as they grow, continue to put quality first. I had the pleasure of touring their handbag factory in the fall and oh my goodness do they put an unbelievable amount of TLC into their products. It’s a family owned brand where everyone genuinely cares about their customers and employees – and continue to produce stunning products that withstand time in both quality and design. (Disclaimer: my fan-girling in this post is 110% genuine – I am obsessed, ha!).
