Weekly Wardrobe: My Favorite Summer 2022 Outfits

October 2, 2022

fashion-blogger

This week I spent moving my sister and brother-in-law into their new, beautiful place, with the exception of Thursday which is when I got to attend my first (and probably my last) Red Sox game of the season. The event was held to announce VisitMA’s newest tourism campaign, The Massachusetts Sports Trail. Instead of sharing my weekly wardrobe for the past several days (I’ll be honest, you really don’t want to see all the yoga pants and baggy tees), I’m sharing my favorite outfits of Summer 2022, as well as Thursday’s game day outfit.

St. Patrick’s Day

I’m Pregnant!

What it’s Like to Have a Miscarriage

This week Boston was plunged headfirst into a cine This week Boston was plunged headfirst into a cinematic whirlwind of devastatingly beautiful tragedy! ✨ 

The Boston premiere of Jean-Christophe Maillot’s (@jeanladanse) Roméo et Juliette at the @bostonballet was… well, let’s just say I came, I saw, I sobbed.

I’ll be the first to confess, my ballet heart usually beats for the elaborate tutus of The Nutcracker or the ethereal grace of Swan Lake. So, walking into this re-imagined classic, told through the haunted eyes of Friar Laurence (a superb @paulcraig2003), I had a tiny flutter of stylish apprehension. But by the time that infamous death scene unfolded, I was a complete, utter, mascara-streaked mess. In the best possible way, of course. This isn’t just ballet; it’s an experience. The minimalistic sets are pure genius, letting the raw, unfiltered passion of the dancers blaze across the stage. We’re talking pride, fear, the dizzying rush of new love, and the devastating impulsiveness that follows – you don’t just watch it, you feel it in your soul. It’s so cinematic, even the dancers’ names projected onto a scrim at the start felt like opening film credits.

@JeffreyCirio as Romeo and Ji Young Chae @dancechae as Juliette are simply breathtaking. I’ve seen them paired many times, and they always enchant, but in this? It’s like they’re two halves of the same soul – you can’t tell where one ends and the other begins. Their connection is pure fire.

And can we talk about the slow-motion fight scene?! The culmination of all that simmering violence, where Mercutio and Tybalt meet their fates (minor spoiler for the .2% of you who missed English Lit 😜) – was one of the most astounding feats of theatre I have ever witnessed. An entire stage of dancers moving in perfect, heart-stopping slow-motion unison? Utterly spellbinding.

What an absolutely magnificent way for @bostonballet to close their season. Don’t walk, jeté to get your tickets for Roméo et Juliette before June 8th! And because I love you, darlings, use my code FASHIONKATE45 for a fabulous little discount. You absolutely must experience this.

S⭐️I⭐️X Darling Arielle, six years have s S⭐️I⭐️X

Darling Arielle, six years have spun by like the most enchanting carousel ride! ✨ 

Watching you blossom into the most incredible big sister has been the adventure of a lifetime. 

Your sparkling personality? It doesn’t just grow, it positively dazzles more and more with each passing day. 

From tiny toes to a heart overflowing with love and laughter, you paint our world with such vibrant hues. 

I hope you know that the thing that brings me the most joy in this world, that I am proudest of, is that I am your mama. 

Happy 6th Birthday to my rockstar, my sunshine, my everything! 💖🎂

Well, the cap has been tossed and the diploma is i Well, the cap has been tossed and the diploma is in hand. Arielle is officially a preschool graduate! 🎓

To say I’m proud would be the understatement of the century. For the last three years, we have been so incredibly lucky to be part of a school community that didn’t just teach her letters and numbers, but celebrated her for exactly who she is. They saw her fire, her humor, and her unique spirit not as something to be managed, but as an asset. They let her shine.

It’s everything you could ever want for your child, isn’t it? So often, the world seems eager for our kids to talk and walk, only to then spend years telling them to sit down and be quiet. My hope for her next chapter is that she lands in a place that continues to nurture her spirit.

And I’ll be honest, after the graduation was over and the house was quiet this afternoon, I cried. Some might think it’s silly to cry over a preschool graduation, but it’s a real step. For me, Arielle is my mini-me, and I know all too well what it feels like to have your light dimmed by people who don’t understand you. So yes, there were tears. Tears of pride for the amazing little human she is, tears of excitement for her future, and tears of nervousness for what’s to come.

Feeling all the feelings today. Swipe to see my sweet, smart, incredible graduate. ❤️

Okay, darlings, what a weekend this has been! My h Okay, darlings, what a weekend this has been! My heart is just soaring after watching my amazing Arielle shine.

Seriously, Arielle was just incredible at her dance recital! ✨ 

Her ballet was so graceful and sweet, and her tap performance was pure energy and fun – I couldn’t stop smiling. Seeing her up on that stage, so confident and happy, was truly one of those perfect mom moments.

It definitely brought back so many memories of my own dancing days. I loved performing, but I also remember dealing with some mean-spiritedness back then, and I’m so determined to make sure Arielle’s experience is different. I really think we’ve found such a wonderfully supportive and kind dance studio for her. It feels like a true dance home, and that means the world to me.

And hold onto your hats, because the dance adventure continues! My little Aurora was so captivated by Arielle’s performance (she was practically trying to climb onto the stage herself!), so I just had to sign her up for the 2-year-old class next year! 🎀 

Oh my goodness, I can only imagine the adorable chaos, but I am so ready for it. Two tiny dancers in the house – get ready!

And as if that wasn’t enough excitement, after the recital, we celebrated Arielle graduating from preschool! 

From her beautiful dances to her little graduation, it was a weekend packed with milestones and so much pride.

It’s been such an emotional and wonderful few days, a beautiful reminder of how quickly they grow and how important it is to soak in all these precious moments. So much joy, so much to look forward to! So incredibly proud of my girls. 💖

Darlings, a little heart-to-heart for Mental Healt Darlings, a little heart-to-heart for Mental Health Awareness Month? My soul sighed relief for this reminder. 🌸

With my therapist, I shared my ‘grand plan’: track every minute to find more time...for more doing! (Life’s a whirlwind with school events, Arielle’s graduation, birthdays, a trip – you know the beautiful chaos!) Bless my ever-striving heart. 😂

Her kind revelation: what if that ‘extra’ time was a gift to myself? My mind yelled, ‘But how, darling?! So much to do!’, but my heart whispered, ‘Yes.’

This led me to reflect on 2022’s tender wounds: two silent heartbreaks, goodbyes that marked my soul. Then, learning the shadow I carried was PPD (yes, even without a baby home then – a shock). Our precious Aurora Rose, our rainbow, arrived like a sunbeam. I hoped she’d mend everything, but true healing, I’m learning, is a gentle pilgrimage inward, even amidst her joy. ✨

I see now my whirlwind of ‘doing’ was often a dance to avoid unprocessed grief & depression. My ADHD is part of my sparkle, but it also shielded a heart not yet ready to be still and feel.

So this May, I’m tenderly rewriting ‘self-care.’ It’s more than appointments; it’s nurturing my inner landscape: a joyful novel, a quiet coffee, the radical act of being. Understanding that asking for help is strength. Am I giving my loved ones my best, or just what’s left from an empty cup?

My heartfelt desire: be a joyful, present mother, a loving partner, and kind to myself. It’s not a quick-fix, my loves, but a gentle journey home to myself, one heartfelt step at a time.

What tender acts of self-kindness are you embracing this month? I’d be so honored to hear your heart on this.
