Well it's back to work after a long weekend. When is the next holiday? Seriously, we wish our lives away sometimes looking for the next weekend, event ,etc. Let's just be grateful for today.

 

I'm in the white blazer again. It's truly a summer work staple for me. Sometimes it even makes an appearance in the fall and winter.

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.

 

If you're looking for some more ideas on what to wear later today, check out Saturday's post with patriotic outfits made from mostly sale items.

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 have been admiring all the tassel jewelry that is on trend right now, but I couldn't really justify the purchase when it wouldn't really fit in with my work attire. Then one day I popped into Michaels and noticed some tassels and colorful beads on clearance. I already had other beads and all the tools for making jewelry so I decided make my own. The bracelets are really easy to make- just string your beads and tassels on stretch magic cord and tie it in a knot. Glue your knot and you are done.

 

I also made another set of stacked bead tassel bracelets and a beaded wrap charm bracelet while I was at it. You may have seen those on Instagram. The wrap bracelet is for sale in my Poshmark closet.

 

I love how these bright colors pop against my white cold shoulder top. I know that "off shoulder" is having a moment now, but I've decided the cold shoulder top is more my jam. I'm just a bit picky about tops being too flowy and almost returned this one. I'm glad I didn't because I really like it with the fitted skirt. It will work well with skinny jeans too, and I can probably tuck it into shorts.
