My Flamingo Finds!

July 24, 2017 By Kari Leave a Comment

Flamingo-1Holy flockin’ flamingos, is 2017 ever the Summer of the Flamingo! It seems the trend is everywhere I look – my Instagram feed, while I’m out shopping, or at the beach – there’s flamingo stuff on display. I’m eating it up! I did some digging and came up with my ‘Top Flamingo Finds’. The best part? Almost ALL of it is on sale!

#1: Mugs- I got this one for $5.99 at HomeSense. They have a ton of flamingo mugs, so I’m sure if pop into your local store, you’ll find one. I also want this one so bad, and this one is fancy!

Flamingo-2

#2: Flip Flops- I found these Kate Spade flamingo flip flops for $30 at Winners. They aren’t available online right now, but I’ll update this post as soon as they are. These are also so cute and these ones for girls are great!

Flamingo-3

#3: Round Flamingo Towel– This is my favourite purchase of the summer. Buy it online at RedRibbon.ca. Make sure to use the code ‘Kari15’ for 15% off your entire purchase until July 31, 2017!

#4: Inflatable Drink Holders– I snagged these for half price at Urban Outfitters. This one is also adorable and fits four cups! Or, how about this one that’s shaped like a cooler to fit drinks for your whole party?! Out. Of. Control.

Flamingo-5

#5: Rompers- Forget the fall stuff coming in. There’s still a lot of summer left. Find rompers for your patio date here and here.

#6: Kid’s Books- There are so many precious flamingo books out there for your babes. How could we not love a book titled, “Floyd the Flamingo“? This one also caught my eye.

Flamingo-6

#7: Storage Boxes- This set of three boxes from Ikea is the perfect way to give some pizzazz to your office space or your kid’s closet.

#8: Pool Floats- This one is by far my favourite because it’s rose gold!! I also love this one, and this one is adorable for the kiddos!

Flamingo-7

#9: Phone and Desktop Wallpaper- Lauren Conrad’s team came up with adorable high res images for your iPhone or desktop. If you use an Android like I do, I’m sure you’ll like these ones.

#10: Stuffies- I love this from Anthropologie. What a great gift for a baby shower! This one is AMAZING too!

Flamingo-8

#11: Flamingo Umbrella- You guys. Are you kidding me? A flamingo umbrella?! It’s too perfect. Shop for it here.

Flamingo-9

#12: Drinkware- I came across these amazing options while shopping at Pier One the other day. I was hoping they were available online for you… and they are! ‘Add to cart’ this carafe, these tumblers, margarita glasses, and these wine glasses. The best part: everything is on clearance!

#13: Shower Curtains- Add a splash of flamingo to your bathroom with this unreal shower curtain! 

Flamingo-10

#14: Lights- string these on your patio or outside your camper. They could even go in your kid’s play tent. Super cute and inexpensive.

Flamingo-11

#15: Tech- All stylish and adorable! Samsung Galaxy phone cover, iPhone 7 Plus case, and wireless mouse, 

#16: Baby Stuff- Adorable bow clip from Plum Home + Design, organic cotton pants, swim diaper with matching hat, and this organic cotton muslin swaddle all caught my eye!

Flamingo-12

#17: Kitchen Stuff- Throw an amazing themed party with these food picks, ice cube molds, cookie cutter and bottle opener!

#18: Party Skirts- These statements skirts paired with a simple blouse look fabulous! I love this one and this one. 

Flamingo-13

#19: Costumes- If you’re thinking about carrying the Flamingo trend over into fall, here are two options for really awesome Halloween costumes for babies and toddlers.

#20: Office Supplies- Add some life to your workspace with these cute file folders, pocket notes, and notepad.

Don’t forget to Pin this to your Style Boards!

We'll be showing you what our Elf 
Candi🍭 does each day this year so you can share in the joy of the season! We would love to see what your elf is up to as well so be sure to tag us!❤️ 

We're also wondering if she may bring a new elf friend with her this year. 🤔 How cool would that be?! 

🍭Last year she decorated Wyatt's bedroom door with a whole bunch of cool stuff she brought from the North Pole including blown up candy canes, swirly mints, twinkle lights, and a few fun Christmas garland. What do you think?

This trend had me deep in the files for hours last This trend had me deep in the files for hours last night 😭😭 

Ask any questions in the comments ⤵️ I'm an open book on this one. Feel free to share with someone who may need it. I believe sharing our struggles and stories helps all of us feel less alone.

Ry and I had the talks that maybe this wouldn't happen for us. The biggest heartache in that was thinking Wyatt wouldn't have a sibling- something we wanted for him. ❤️

If you're unfamiliar with our story:

- In 2014 we had a miscarriage at 15 weeks.💔

- Found out I have an 'incompetent cervix' 🙄 and would need a cerclage for future pregnancies.

- Six months later we were pregnant with Wyatt! ❤️

- Wyatt was born in July 2015.

- A few years later we started trying for another babe.

- It turned out to be a 2.5 year journey. In 2021, we took the summer off trying (I turnes 40) and our first month back in the game - boom. 💃 Pregnant!

- Two significant scares in my pregnancy. 

- June 2022 - Noah arrives! 🤗🤗
