It’s official. These are the my favorite shorts I have ever owned. I’ve worn them over twenty times this summer (no exaggeration), which is pretty crazy. They pair perfectly with almost all of the tops in my wardrobe and are perfect for day or night. I also think they are really comfortable and flattering. Show Me Your Mumu has easily become one of my favorite brands over the past few months! I absolutely love their bold prints and fun florals.
Here are some other ways to style my favorite tropical-pattered shorts:
Thank you for checking out my blog! Hope you have an awesome Monday!
So this is a short, little throwback post that I’ve been meaning to put up! Cold shoulder tops, patterned shorts, statement earrings, and braids are just a few of my summer faves. I got this outfit from Red Dress Boutiquea few months ago, so it is not available anymore. However, I linked some similar options. I love cold shoulder tops because they are a little more comfortable than off the shoulder tops (you don’t have to pull them up every five seconds), but they still add something fun and different to your outfit. I paired the outfit with a simple braid and some bold, blue cobalt earrings for a night out!
Hope you all are having a fabulous, fabulous Wednesday!
Never did I ever think I would wear a midi skirt, let alone fall in love with one. A few months ago I was shopping for skirts online and stumbled across this one on forever21. I hesitated for a second or two before putting in my cart because I wasn’t sure if I would end up actually wearing it. It was such a good impulse buy and has easily become one of my summer staples. This is a little bit of a ‘tbt’ post because I wore this outfit back when my mom was visiting me in London. I paired this white midi skirt with my favorite chambray button down for a night out in the city to see Mama Mia, one of my favorite musicals. I really, really enjoyed all of the lively songs and costumes.
Sadly this exact skirt is not available anymore online, but it might still be in stores because I purchased it about two months ago. Below I posted some different ways that I plan on styling my white midi skirt over the next few weeks.
Thank you so much for checking out my blog! Hope you all are having a fabulous week!
Looking for that easy, breezy, perfect summer dress? Well Red dress boutique has it- in several colors and patterns. I of course had to purchase it in both blue and red (though I really wish I owned it in every single color). This casual dress will definitely be the perfect game day piece when college starts again in the fall. I love it with sandals in the summer, but I can totally picture it with cowboy boots and a denim jacket for chilly games! It’s also very comfortable, versatile, and flattering. The ‘Color My Soul Dress‘ is definitely one of my favorite sundresses for summer, and I would highly, highly recommend it!
P.S. I actually made it onto the Red Dress Boutique site earlier this week (bottom row, far left), and I almost had a heart attack! I was so excited they posted my picture on their site!
Whenever I am stuck on what to wear, I always reach for this easy dress. I have already worn it 4-5 now, and I just purchased it last month. I love it because it is not only super comfortable, but it is very versatile. Before heading to Africa, I stopped by Anthropologie with my sister to shop. I had no intentions of actually purchasing anything, I just went with her to browse. Allie tried on this striped green dress, and I fell in love. I am sure she was less than pleased that I ended up purchasing it too, but I just couldn’t help it! When we were checking out, the employee working at the cash register told us that our ‘new favorite dress’ was actually a tunic! She said that her favorite way to style it was to pair it with jeans or shorts and tie it at the waist. I definitely plan on wearing it as a shirt by knotting it at the waist and pairing it with a white skirt. However, I absolutely love it as a dress though! It comes in so many fun patterns- and it runs petite. This dress/shirt/versatile piece was definitely more of a splurge for me, but I would totally repurchase it another pattern in the near future. I find myself constantly wearing it this season.
I decided to pair this dress with my favorite pink tassel earrings (that are now back in stock here!!), neutral sandals, and a hot pink clutch. I purchased this clutch in three colors several years ago at Jcrew. It is such a fantastic clutch that easily works for both day and night!
P.S. These photos were taken back in TX before heading off abroad. I took several pictures back home before heading here that I forgot to post! I will be catching up on posting those photos over the next few weeks! Also, I have been loving this fabulous London tour book from Anthropologie. It has so many fun places and sites recommended by locals! I would definitely recommend picking it up if you are heading to London this summer.
Happy 4th of July, friends! This dress has actually been my favorite piece for summer. Off shoulder tops and dresses have definitely been my ‘go-to’ this season. I paired this patriotic dress with some white stone earrings and white sandals for a day spent exploring the city. However, it would look awesome with wedges and a clutch for night!
These photos were taken at Neal’s Yard in London. My friend recommended that I check out this colorful cluster of buildings and shops. This little spot was difficult to find at first, but well worth the trip. I loved the bright walls and all of the fun restaurants. My mom and I had a fabulous time visiting this unique part of town. I am having such an incredibly time in London so far, and I’m almost positive that I’m not ever going to leave. Tomorrow I move into my dorm, and it will be nice to not live out of a suitcase anymore. I couldn’t be having a better time in this perfect city! Words can’t describe how much I love it here.
I hope you all are having a fabulous 4th of July and enjoying the holiday!
Everybody loves a little black dress. But for summer, the little white dress is a must-have. I find myself wearing them constantly during the summer time because they are incredibly versatile and look great with a tan. Out of all of the white dresses I own, this oneis definitely my favorite. I love the lace detailing and the open back. I also own it in black as well! I love to pair “the little white dress” with turquoise and gold jewelry. It’s definitely my favorite color combination for the season.
Sadly, the weather in Texas has been rainy again. We had a nice week or so of sunshine, but lately it’s been back to tropical storms. I spent the day in Dallas and had a great time visiting the Dallas Museum of Art and eating Sprinkles cupcakes! Between packing for 8+ weeks abroad, having friends in town, and accidentally having my hair dyed gray- it’s been a chaotic week! I couldn’t be more excited to head to Africa tomorrow for a perfect safari getaway.
This tie-dye, bell sleeved shift has helped me beat those Monday blues. It can be hard getting out of bed in the summer (especially when you’re a little addicted to 90210), but this fun printed dress makes it easier! This has definitely become one of my favorite pieces in my closet because it is so perfect for Sunday brunch, evenings with friends, and even those fall game days. I purchased this dress in the store during March, and it was love at first sight. However, it is currently sold out online (so I linked two similar options). I paired it with some gold sandals and cool toned earrings. I also decided to add my white fringe purse to bring out the whites in the dress. It’s been a fabulous week here in Texas with even more fabulous weather. I can’t believe I head off for Tanzania in just 10 days- I am so excited!
Every time I put on this fun, tropical dress, I instantly feel like I am back in Maui (which is pretty much my very favorite place on Earth). The halter, swingy fit of this Show Me Your Mumu dress is incredibly flattering and perfect for those hot summer evenings. I loved the ‘Katy Halter Dress’ so much, that I purchased another one in this wild print as well! I decided to pair it with some rose gold, hibiscus adorned wedges, and pearl statement earrings. For my lips, I went with a beige lipstick and a layered coral lipstick. I’ve also been playing around with my new Exhibit A blush, so I will definitely be reviewing this bold blush soon!
Nothing says summer like a bold romper- oh, and a sunburn. I am all about halters, so when I saw this fun, geometric one, I could not resist! I have worn this romper several times over the past few months and it is such a summer staple for me. One of my favorite things about this romper is that it looks like a two piece set, but it’s really not. It’s also super comfortable! I decided to pair it with some navy and white sandals and a white cross body purse. I think it would also look cute paired with a denim jacket for chilly summer nights. Now that the month of May is over, I will be posting my ‘May favorites’ later this week! Thank you again for checking out my blog!
