May Moments & Loungin’ in the Wild: Real Life, Real Lounge

Let me just say it — May flew by faster than my Frenchie can bolt when I say “bath time.” Between a whirlwind of sunny strolls, patio hangouts, and a calendar full of celebrations, it was one of those beautiful, busy months that reminded me how much joy can be packed into 31 days.

Here’s a peek at what our Lounge With Us crew has been up to — from weddings and milestone birthdays to oysters and Mahjong nights — because yes, life is full, but it’s also full of moments worth dressing up (or down) for.

A Wedding to Remember

We kicked things off celebrating two of our nearest and dearest, Erin and Toby, at their gorgeous wedding reception at James Island County Park. Picture this: family, friends, live music from Weigh Station, and BBQ that dreams are made of (Martin’s, obviously). I went with my mom, Kristin, and so many of our original Loungers were there — the energy was pure joy.

Laine’s Big 4-0

Laine turned 40 and so naturally, we showed up and showed out! A fun dinner at Charleston Crab House, lots of laughter, and plenty of “how are we this grown up?!” moments. The next day, she and Julie flew off to Mexico for an all-inclusive getaway. Take me with you next time, please?

Matchy-Matchy Mother-Daughter Magic

Christy’s parents came into town from Nashville, and she and her mom Shannon totally stole the show at Poogan’s Porch in their matching LWU blue dresses. I mean, how cute is that? We’re big fans of the mother-daughter matching moment — especially when it’s in soft, flattering Lounge fabric you can actually breathe in.

Baby Grace on the Way!

We are officially on Baby Watch! Hayley’s baby shower was the sweetest — Mama Brenda & I popped in to celebrate, and now we’re all counting down until little Grace makes her debut. Do we think she’ll be the next generation of Loungers? We sure hope so.

Mahjong + Margaritas = Yes, Please

We finally had one of our favorite longtime clients to join our Mahjong night — and it was everything. These nights are low-key, high-fun, and the perfect excuse to throw on something comfy, bring your game face, and maybe spill a little tea. Next game night is June 17th — grab your seat here!

Oysters with Mom & LuAnn

To wrap it all up, I snuck away for a night out with my mom and our friend LuAnn at Harlow. Good oysters, great wine, and even better company. These little nights out are the ones that fill my cup.

So yes, May was a whirlwind — but the kind I’ll always say yes to. Because when you’ve got people you love, food that feeds your soul, and clothes that feel like a hug... life is good.

Here’s to more moments that matter and to keeping it cozy, stylish, and just the right amount of extra. Catch you in June, friends — and as always, keep Loungin’.

Here’s to the sweetness of this season!
