Heat Wave







I took these photos in the bright sunlight so I had to edit them a bit so they weren't so bright...!

Top: Ann Taylor LOFT
Skirt: Forever 21
Flats: Sam Edelman (via Saks OFF 5th)
Belt: Urban Outfitters
Earrings: Vintage post style (thrifted and real mother of pearl)

I'm technically not supposed to wear a skirt with side pockets like this with my body type, but I don't really care. I tossed that rule out years ago. I bought these flats at the outlets a month ago. They were on major clearance and I have to say, they will be a great investment for the next few months. Animal prints are in for Fall. I have to say, while I love animal print and have an animal print top and skirt, I just don't think I have the bravery to do an animal print dress, unless it was like multicolored or something. Yes I can't wear animal print unless it's purple and pink. That doesn't even make sense.

Tomorrow is a pool day so don't expect an outfit. Why can't Fall just be here? Please?

xoxo,

But your soul, you must keep totally free.









Romper: Splendid (gifted)
Sandals: Banana Republic Outlet
Bag: H&M
Necklace: Vintage from Dustinthewindz@etsy.

Yesterday we went swimming again, so I didn't wear anything fun except for my bathing suit.

This romper was a gift from my boyfriend's sister. She was doing some shopping on Splendid the other day and I was helping her pick items. When she saw this romper she said it looked like me and added my size to the cart. She is so sweet and generous to me. I love how soft it is and that it could be worn with a skirt to get more use out of it. Today it was so hot and this came in the mail just yesterday and was perfect for the weather today. It's the first heat wave here since the start of summer. I got the bag at H&M when I was in New York City earlier this month and I got the sandals during a major sale at the outlets. I think they ended up being $12 or something. Well worth it, but my mom says old ladies wear white sandals. Apparently my Aunt refuses to wear them since my mom said that.

Lastly, this necklace is an amazing find from Etsy vintage shopping. I'm crazy for it. So unique and gorgeous. It's a wonderful sort of understated statement necklace. I don't know if that makes sense.

Thank you to my new followers! I hope you enjoy what I have in store for you in the future. Xoxo.
