White out- Saturday shopping

All white


 
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!

Today I'm sharing another look that I've made more summer appropriate with a bright colored blouse and peep toe booties. It's very hard to stay cool and look summer appropriate in an office that calls for conservative business wear, but with a few switches your basic dark suits can be worn year round. A bright colored blouse or accessory and lighter shoes are one of the easiest switches to make. What are your tricks for summer work wear?


Did you know that I have some great summer pieces listed in my Poshmark closet?  Come check them out and make me an offer- no reasonable offer is refused. I have a cute white Banana Republic fit and flare skirt that would make someone a great summer piece, a cute cardigan that would look great over this sundress, and this fabulous Loft leopard pencil skirt that all need a good home.

Happy Fourth of July! As many of our freedoms come under attack, I pray that we take a moment to truly appreciate what freedom we do have and how we got here. I hope each of you has a happy and safe day.
 
I'm going to keep this short and sweet so I can get on with this last day off work. We are having a new refrigerator delivered as the old one makes a terrible noise and has cracked inside. We decided to take advantage of a sale and replace it before it completely dies. No new outfits for me, my sales shopping involved a refrigerator. Yay- life.

Hello long weekend! Do you have plans? We don't but that's okay. We don't really like large crowds and sometimes I like those long weekends with no plans. If I were going out, I'd probably wear something like this.
 
I knew these seersucker sailor shorts would make a perfect Fourth of July outfit, so I paired them with a blue top, white earrings, red sandals and a red clutch. This would be the perfect fireworks or backyard bar-b-que outfit. What will you be wearing this Fourth of July?

I'm in love with this faux knot tee. I love this color combination and this tee is super soft and comfy.  It's still on sale and there are several colors. I also love how comfortable these wedges are. I think this is the third time you've seen them now- #sorrynotsorry. These wedges may become my new go to or at least a close second to my beige wedges.

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?
