Transitional Favorites with Backcountry

March 2019

Hello, transitional weather! We’re inching our way to spring and it’s making me so excited about spending more time outside – and also adding a few key pieces to my wardrobe. Lightweight jackets, a cute new backpack (…that could also double as a diaper bag these days – and Blake could wear it, too), the comfiest sandals (I own both of the pairs of Birkenstocks featured above and OMG they’re the best) and more everyday accessories. A new season is reason enough to scoop up your favorites!

No matter the time of year, a lightweight jacket is a solid investment. Perfect for those cooler “in between” days, crisp nights by the beach (…I am daydreaming of an evening curled up next to a cozy fire!) and great for layering when the weather is cold in the morning and warms up throughout the day. Backcountry has been my go-to retailer for everyday wear and all things outdoors, and their selection of lightweight jackets is incredible. They carry all of my favorite brands at every price point including North Face, Patagonia, Columbia and a TON more (psst…lots on sale right now, too!).

As I’ve ventured into motherhood, my daily walks are still taking place but this time with our sweet Jude cozied up in a wrap on my chest. Austin weather likes to keep us guessing, so one day I’m in shorts and the next it’s back to leggings and a jacket. Reaching for a breezy jacket that’s not bulky has been a must! I’m also excited to bring this one on our next beach trip because it’s easy to pack, plus it’ll be perfect for anything from a cold airport to cool nights next to the ocean.

Though I’ve been in nesting mode since Jude was born, as he gets bigger I’m so excited to show him all that Austin has to offer outdoors. Hiking, swimming, “mommy and me” yoga-ing…we’ve got big plans in store as he gets older! I love that Backcountry puts so much emphasis on getting outside and enjoying all that nature has to offer. It’s a brand that encourages such a healthy way of life and I’m always so proud to share that with my readers! You can use code LIVVY15 to take 15% off your first purchase (valid for one time use).

What springtime activity are you looking forward to most? I’d love to know! Hope y’all have a wonderful week, XO.
