I was so tired when I took these pictures and it really shows. Also this hair is why I got a cut (yet to be revealed). It's all over the place. #windblown So apologies in advance. I've also been wearing these sandals on repeat a lot. #sorrynotsorry They are favorites.

 

Aside from the tired expressions and messy hair, this has the potential to be a very cute outfit. It was Pinterest inspired. Do you pair stripes and camo?

I know we've all been going crazy over the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and fall items, but summer is definitely not over. We've got two or three more months to wear shorts here, and most of you have at least a good 4-6 weeks of shorts weather left, so here's a shorts outfit for you. You should definitely have a printed pair in your closet (love this gingham pair). There are lots of fun shorts and summer items going on sale and clearance now.

 

 A printed pair of shorts can add interest to your summer wardrobe. I've paired mine with a bright top ( I did something similar last year here and here) and some bright jewelry.

 

I caved into peer pressure after seeing these shoes on other bloggers and on Instagram and bought a pair. I did wait until they were on sale. I can't find them online, but check your local Target. Once I gave in, I started wearing them on heavy rotation. You will be seeing a good bit of them in future posts.

Did you catch my Nordstrom sale purchases review?  I gave a run down of what I bought, what I'm keeping and what I'm returning on Saturday.

White out- Saturday shopping

 

Summer is the perfect time for an all white look! It's crisp and cool, or at least it sends cool vibes even when you're having a 108 heat index day like we are today.  Shop the look above and more below. Happy Saturday!

Some more great white pieces on sale today are this Gap linen dress (40% off), fringe tweed shell from Ann Taylor ($25 with discount), white scuba culottes from Macy's and these tie front shorts from Banana Republic ($19.99 with discount).

I've also got a cute white fit and flare skirt from Banana Republic in my Poshmark closet. Make me an offer!

Happy Shopping!

Hello and Happy Monday! No I'm not all that happy about it being Monday, but a long weekend is coming. I'm that person that gets dreadful on Sunday evening because it's over and I didn't get everything done over the weekend that I needed or wanted to do. But I can't change that, so I may as well embrace it for what it is- another week, a fresh start.

 

Let's start this one talking about summer work wear. I find it difficult to still look professional and stay appropriately dressed. Sleeveless items aren't allowed in my office and dresses and skirts don't always fit in with the activities of my day. And the AC inside can get somewhat cold. We've been having 100 degree days as well, so I really don't want to be in stuffy work wear. I've been pushing through it with lighter and brighter colors. This blazer is one of my favorites for summer. This blouse/shell is sleeveless so it works well with a blazer in the summer. That tends to be one of my tricks for summer work wear- sleeveless blouse under a blazer or cardigan.

 

How do you dress for work in the summer?

Sailor shorts

 Today I'm sharing how I styled my seersucker sailor shorts from Loft. I've worn this shirt with seersucker before, so this was an easy choice. This JCrew Factory shirt is no longer available but I think these shorts would look equally cute with the JCrew Factory pineapple tee or the metallic crab tee. And can we talk about these wedges? They are just a little over 2 inches tall so they provide enough height to lengthen and lean the legs but they are still short enough to wear with everything and super comfortable. I could wear and walk in these all day. You will be seeing them a lot this summer. They are available from several stores, so pick your favorite store and watch for a sale.
