Girly Summer

Dress - H&M

Flats - The Webster Miami collab with Target from last year

Bag - Kenneth Cole Reaction

I am absolutely loving this dress, It's super girly and perfect for hot days like today (plus it only cost $20 from H&M!). 

Another great thing about this dress is that I think I can wear it during the fall because of it being off white/ivory instead of  a stark white, which doesn't always work well during fall/winter seasons. I would pair it with a jacket and some tights, so I'm pretty sure it's going to get some good use :) 

Anyway, I hope y'all are having a beautiful day! 

Cheers,

Top - Forever21

Skirt - Old Navy

Flats - TOMS

Bag - Merona

Watch - Fossil

Necklace - Forever21

How in the world is it the middle of July? Does anyone else feel like this is kind of crazy? 

Since it is the middle of the July, and because it has been pretty hot where I live, I have been taking full advantage of wearing thin tops that breathe easily as well as skirts and shorts. I can't wait until Fall, though, so I can pull out my sweaters and boots (I'm so picky when it comes to the weather... if you couldn't already tell from previous posts).

Anyway, I hope y'all had a great week! Look out for posts on how I organize my nail polish and my back-to-school wishlist later this week!  

Yesterday

Dress - Xhiliration

Shoes - Mossimo

Bag - Expressions NYC

Necklace - Freedom Firm

This outfit was actually from yesterday, but I had no time to actually post it since my day was pretty crazy; It was one of those days, I guess.

I got this dress from my sister in-law for my birthday last month, and I'm loving it. It's perfect for this horrible weather and the color is gorgeous so it's a win-win, right? 

Anyway, hoping y'all are having a fabulous Monday!

Pastels, Please.

Top - Papaya 

Skirt - Mossimo

Wedges - Seychelles

Bag - ShoeDazzle

If you couldn't tell, I love pastel colors. I just think pastels are gorgeous and work for so many skin types, and who doesn't love that?? Besides, mint green is still having it's major moment (for the past, what? two years?).

And of course, pastels aren't just for Spring. I love wearing them all year round even though some people say they only work for 3 months out of the year (as if!).

What I want to know, though, is what is your favorite pastel color? Tell me in the comments below!

As always, thank you for checking out my blog and be sure to follow for more!

Pale in All Filters

Shirt - Old Navy

Pants - Mossimo

Flats - TOMS

Bag - Merona 

Necklace - made by my super talented sister at yourmomdesigns

Okay. I know, I know. I'm as pale as the white shirt I'm wearing. I need to get out  in the sun so that people don't think I'm cast in the next Stephanie Meyer inspired movie.  

Anyway, today has been looong. I woke up super early to open up the coffee shop at my church and needed a simple outfit I could work in. Capri pants have become one of my favorite wardrobe staples for spring/summer, so of course I chose these because they're perfect when you're looking for a quick and effortless outfit that still looks put together.

What's your favorite wardrobe staple for spring/summer? Let me know in the comments below! 

Thanks so much for checking out my blog! I hope y'all have a fabulous week.

Here's a tip for when you're shopping at Target (which, if you're anything like me, is 1-2 times a week): try and find online returns because they mark those items down like crazy. I got this new skirt, that is super comfy, for $4.56 and I'm the kind of person whose day can be turned completely around by tiny stuff like that, so next time you're there be on the look out. 

Anyway, I hope y'all are having a fabulous day and will have an even more fabulous week!

Can we just take a minute to talk about how much I love this skirt? It's so comfortable and versatile, it's ridiculous. I need to go back to Target (psh. Where else?) and get like a thousand more. 

I love pairing skirts like this with brightly colored tops or accessories to really make it stand out. How do you like styling versatile skirts like this? Leave me a comment below!

Goodness Knows I Needed Spring

Top - Papaya Clothing
Skirt - Prabal Gurung for Target
Shoes - Steve Madden
Bag - Kenneth Cole Reaction
Watch - Fossil

Thank God for Spring inspired floral patterns and bright colors; I am so in love with them both.

As you can tell from the pictures, though, I am still super-duper ridiculously vampire-esque. I need to hit up the beach ASAP, but until I can I'll just continue wearing bright colors and daydreaming about clear skies and sand beneath my feet.
