What I'm wearing: Top: Rue21 // Shorts: F21 // Sunglasses: SMHP // Earrings: c/o Acute Designs  (use code JESSICA15 for 15% off!) // Necklaces: vintage, InPink // Bracelets: c/o Ettika , gift, c/o Henri Lou Jewelry // Ring: c/o Henri Lou Jewelry // Sandals: boutique // Beach Bag: Victoria's Secret   I mentioned before that I have a love-hate relationship with floral prints , but add them to a sheer fabric or on a dark background for some edge, and I'm sold. I added some light pink and gold hardware accessories to complete the modern girly look. The Henri Lou bracelet is a perfect neutral piece for any type of style and the Acute Designs earrings are simple enough to not steal the show but unique enough to add character to an outfit. Pssss use code JESSICA15 for 15% off Acute Designs jewelry ! What do you think? Are you a fan of floral prints? And do you notice that Duke keeps making more and more appearances in my photos?! :)  

finding balance

Finding balance in this crazy life is hard. I feel like I'm constantly trying to fit things into my schedule whether it's work, blogging, spending time with Jared, friends, playing with Duke, keeping in touch with loved ones off island, the list never ends. And I don't even have kids! (major props to all the moms and dads out there!) Since I've been working a lot more from home, finding balance has been even more challenging.  I mentioned last week that Jared and I are on stay-cation this week. I'm writing this post in advance but I know It's going to be SO difficult to stay away from work, email, social media, and really the internet in general. I mean let's not kid ourselves, I won't be able to ignore it all completely, but sometimes don't you think we should? Or could?  At the beginning of our marriage I worked in a Creative Director position and was working very long hours. I'd come home late and

What I'm Wearing: Tank/Dress: Kintage // Sweater: Eden in Love // Earrings: Ginger13 // Necklaces: Momentus NY  +  K.O. Jewelry  // Bracelets: Ginger13 + gift Breezy days on the island are my favorite. I'm soaking it in before summer hits! That being said, I'm sooo looking forward to this upcoming week! Jared and I are going to be playing tourist and will be on a week long stay-cation. It will be my birthday week (any other May babies out there?) and I told him that all I want is for us to do something super cool. I want an experience, not materials. Ok, I'm kind of lying because I also asked him to cook for me, ha! I have some posts scheduled for next week (when did I get so on-top of things?!) but if I'm a bit MIA from social media and email, this is why! If you want to follow this week's adventures, I'm sure we'll be sharing some snapshots via Instagram ! You can follow me at instagram.com/jayemmtee  and Jared at  instagram.co

Jewelry // Ring: c/o Henri Lou Jewelry // Bracelets: c/o Ettika I am so excited to tell you guys about my collaboration with Ettika . If you haven't heard of them yet, you're welcome! They are an online jewelry retailer specializing in "stacks" which are basically sets of bracelets that can be worn together or separately. I collaborated with them to create this stack which they named Jessica Who?! How cool is that?! As you can see on their website , there are literally hundreds of items to choose from. I went with an earthy + boho theme. It just felt right with summer coming up and my current weekend routine of heading to the beach. My favorite piece of the stack is the leather wrap bracelet that can also be worn as a necklace (pictured above). What do you th
