Newport + Tennis + Angela Moore = Ladies Soiree!

Ashley and I have been attending the Angela Moore Fashion Show/Brunch and Tennis since 2002. What began as two best-friends and Newpy roommates happily embrassing a day filled with Lilly Pulitzer vibrant colors and tennis 'watching' seven years ago is now one of our Ladies Soiree Annual events! This year we celebrated with a table filled with 12 lovely ladies! Along the way we have had a few of our friends attending while 'expecting'. This year it was my turn (6-months pregnant!) to watch all my lovelies partake in mimosas and wine while gingerly sipping on my lush H2O  :)

Bloom + Baby + Wood = Mod Lounger

Ryan and I attended our friends' Surprise Jack & Jill baby shower last Sunday! The theme was Dr. Seuss and the DIY themed decorations that Katie Watts did were absolutely a-mazing! Our friends K & J had twins a bit earlier than planned so the shower was postponed! K was able to celebrate at her own Baby shower with a fabulous glass of sangria!

Our friends are very mod in their interior decor design! I fell in love with this oh-so-mod baby lounger in November and knew this was the gift for them! Modernnursery.com offered this lounger in seven different colors, no tax and free-shipping! Love them! The 15lbs lounger arrived fabulously boxed and has its very own carrying bag. The lounger slips in and out of the bag seamlessly!
