love this: everyday favorites 

This summer, I'm slowly but surely cleaning our bedroom. Wanting to create a space that feels full of ease and full of...well...space. And part of this plan is to get my clothes down to my favorite favorites. I want to just have the clothes I LOVE to wear. Right now my closet is mostly clothes I really like and might wear some day soon, but the space I have for these clothes is so limited that I have trouble finding my favorites.

And feeling good in my clothes is one way that I'm creating space for really living over here. Simple truth. Yes.

Here are a few of the everyday favorites I'm wearing right now (starting at the top right going clockwise):

Hannah Andersson flipflops: Comfortable and cute! and on sale!

Flipside hats and headbands: You've probably seen some of these in my Instagram self-portraits. My collection is growing as I just added this one. They are made of super soft knit and fit my not small head comfortably but actually fit Ellie too (a little big, but she can pull it off).

Keens Sienna MJ Canvas shoes: Super comfortable can wear them right out of the box shoes. I have blue + red from last year's colors. LOVE this orange.

Fossil Explorer Tote: This is the bag I've been waiting to carry as soon as we no longer need to bring diapers everywhere. I LOVE IT! It has multiple great pockets, which are a very good thing since I'm one of those people who loses her keys every single day. And the aqua really is this gorgeous in person, but in trying to find a link it looks like it is almost out of stock everywhere except Nordstrom (where it's on sale). Other colors (some on sale too) at Zappos.

Ruffled Lyra Top: LOVE the green and the blue! Wearing them a few times a week around here as they work with everything. 

Necklaces from my 1993 Collection: It's true, I'm wearing my own necklaces daily. Layering these around my neck and on my wrist and loving how they transport me to my teenage years.

Converse tank: I've been wearing several versions of this tank for a few years now. Perfect layered and on a hot summer night. Super soft too.

How about you? What are your everyday favorites right now?

I've always loved your hats, Liz! Thank you so much for sharing the source. I'll soon be losing my locks for a while (to chemo), so I'm excited to order some headwear from Flipside... clicking over there now...!

This is so fun. I love seeing where my favorite people shop.

J.Jill jeans, Old Navy heather grey short sleeve tee, and sandals or flip flops from Nike. A leather bag from the streets of Florence, Italy, but needing to replace, as it is worn out.

Such great pieces! I really love those flats and the Anthropology top. I've been living in dresses over capri leggings so far this summer for work, and I picked up a few comfy tanks at TJ Maxx that are very similar to your Converse one. They are great layered under sheer tops.

i agree-- love to see some of your favorite items. i ordered the bag from nordies-- it's reduced even more! thanks so much for sharing!
