Winter Trend: Polka Dot Everything
One trend I am fully embracing and have always loved, is the polka dot! I find the pattern to be classic and utterly adorable. Polka dots look great on just about anyone and at any age! Today on CCG, I have rounded up my favorite polka dot pieces to wear this season and beyond, details for this look, which, by the way, is on sale (#winning) and vent about being a mom of four!
Happy Polka Dots! Saturday, Neil and I had a blast at a San Jose Sharks game. We used to go ALL the time before kids and I figured it was the perfect V-day gift to give this year. It ended up being Warriors night and we ended up with free jerseys. My favorite part, however, was when SJ Sharkie, their team mascot, facetimed our kids at home from our seats. It was awesome! Today wasn’t so magical as the kids had the day off from school. Sure, that sounds wonderful in theory, however, doing any type of errand running or shopping with four kids is not exactly fun. After three stores, I was flustered, tired and ready to go home and hide in the closet eating my 3 lb box of See’s chocolates. True Story. My 6 year old currently makes this new sound that he finds hilarious. Have any of you seen Toy Story 3? Stay with me here…….remember the monkey that is in charge of “surveillance” at the daycare? Yes? Well…my son sounds like that monkey. I’m not sure that was what he was going for, but nevertheless, that’s how he sounds. It’s even more cringe worthy when he’s doing it through the frozen food section at Safeway and of course his younger brother eggs him on to continue. I just took my three minute shower and it was the best three minutes of my day.
In all seriousness, I love my kids and would do absolutely anything for them, but I don’t know why I put myself through shopping with them on a daily basis. My husband thinks I am crazy but if we need milk, we need milk. Where is that shrugging shoulders emoji when ya need it?
Anyhoo….If you have followed me for a while, I’m sure you have seen the various polka dot pieces that I wear, including this skirt recently worn in Solvang. I’m also a fan of mixing patterns together to complete a fun unique look. It doesn’t matter the season either! Polka dots don’t discriminate! Take a peek below at some of my picks! I currently have quite a few of these in my carts!

SO happy it’s not 100 degrees this week and we’re actually having cooler mornings. It’s Finally Fall! #sweaterweather
Added #Maui to the wall…… can’t wait to add to the collection next trip 🙌🏻🤣
Had to share another landscape photo from our #maui trip. But I mean…..can you blame me?!? Love, love, LOVED our time spent there. #mauihawaii
SWIPE LEFT FOR A LAUGH I thought this deserved a permanent spot on my feed as proof I got @theeneil to do a couples massage while in #Maui complete with an outdoor soaking tub, shower and outdoor Hale for our massage. We went straight from Hawaii to Disneyland and when we got home from our 2 days at Disney and felt like we were 80, Neil asked if we could go get another couples massage. 🤣
Counting down until our next #Hawaii vacation. Last year was our first time visiting (we took the family to Oahu) and we loved it so much, @theeneil and I took a trip by ourselves to #Maui 🌊 Both islands have a completely different vibe but one thing’s for sure, they are both so beautiful. I took this photo of #blacksandbeach at Waiʻānapanapa State Park. We rented a bronco and drove the entire island. It was such a wonderful trip and we’re already trying to make plans for another vacay (still debating on whether to bring the kids or not 🤣).
We flew home last night, spent the night in our own bed and now we are currently driving to Disney with the kids. I’m going to need another vacation after this vacation. 🙈 Really loved our time in #Maui Already planning our next trip… 🤣
@theeneil says he took a @graymalin photo 🤣… how’d he do Gray? So many pretty things to take pictures of here…. #maui
#ad On my daily Target run, I grabbed some of my favorite @Ghirardelli Mint Cookie Milk Chocolate Squares! 🙌🏻 These rich milk chocolate squares are filled with mint and crunchy chocolate cookie bits.

So pick up a bag or two @target

Whatever your style may be, I think it’s really important to make your primary bedroom a sanctuary. The blue hues really cheer me up each day. I think I read somewhere once that blue is a calming and serene color. Well, that color has thrown up all over my house and I LOVE IT. 🤣 #blueandwhiteforever #blueandwhitedecor

SAVE AND SHARE THIS DIY HACK! We turned an inexpensive wine fridge into a pricey Café Matte White appliance 🙌🏻 We have all Café appliances in our kitchen and I reeeaaalllly wanted a wine fridge. We took a look at the Cafe one and did a double take on the price! No way were we going to over $3k on what’s essentially a mini fridge 🙈 So, @theeneil and I brainstormed and decided to wing it with this #diy project. While Neil cut into the cabinets, I sanded and painted the door. We found that Sherwin Williams “Rock Candy” was an identical match. First, I actually used one coat of the Rustoleum appliance epoxy enamel and once that cured, I did a coat with a metal roller if the rock candy in satin (I chose satin because I didn’t want a high gloss coat since the other appliances are matte). I got the handle off eBay and Neil drilled new holes. You will have to get creative on how you install the handle since they use something you can’t even find at a hardware store. After a few trips to Home Depot, we got it figure out. Neil added some new trim to polish it off and it fits like a glove! All in all, we saved around $2500 with this DIY project and it looks AMAZING! #cafeappliances #winefridge

I was wondering if you think polka dot print is a good pattern for the bigger girls like me? I personally don’t like the polka dot print on myself I’m a size 14… not a big fan of stripes either. What do you think? I’ve always been self conscious even when I was thinner, something I really need to work on!
aaron reck | 3rd Mar 19
