Fringe Benefits

Over the past few months I have slowly seen suede and fringe begin to takeover my Instagram feed. I was reluctant at first, but not all I want is to wear all those 70's trends (although I'm still not giving in to flared jeans). So when I found this jacket it checked off everything I wanted. I get the (faux) suede and fringe details in a style that still looks modern and is super easy to wear. Thrown over a tee it adds some fun movement to an otherwise basic outfit. 

Teal Tendencies

This shirt literally drew me in when I found it. I spotted it on a mannequin from across the store, and just from the amazing color I knew I had to have it. And then when I found the shirt it also fit nice which was an added bonus. But seriously the color is so good I might have bought it even if it didn't fit. To add a bit of interest I layered two necklaces, with a long one and then a short one peeking out from beneath the collar. As always, a good pair of jeans completes the look. This pair I think has become my favorite style, but I might change my mind tomorrow. All I know is any pair of AG Jeans is good, no matter the style. 

On a side note, why am I never looking at the camera? You'd think after 176 posts I'd figure this out..

Mismatched

Summer hasn't quite come to an end (as seen by yesterday's heat) but it is ending soon. So my fall wardrobe is just waiting to be worn, while my summer wardrobe feels so unexciting. I feel like I've worn everything so many times now and I just want to wear something new. But while it's still hot outside I have to figure out new ways to rework my wardrobe. To do that I took one of my favorite pairs of shorts which I would normally pair with a delicate, girly top and did the complete opposite. Instead, I paired these shorts with a destroyed t-shirt to create a mismatched clash of styles, that somehow all works together.

If only I had this outfit for the Fourth of July, huh? I really love this shirt though, it just feels so summery and fun to me. And these white shorts, I got way more use out of them this summer then I ever thought I would. Such a great summer staple. The white shoes, too. Perfect for adding a touch of sophistication to a summer look.

Summer is not over yet. And while I cannot wait for fall style, at the same time I'm still not quite ready to give up summer. There's just something so casual and laid-back with summer style that I don't want to let go of. Like these crazy printed shorts, they're the essence of summer style. I previously wore them (here) and dressed them up for a fun summer night, but they work so perfectly for a daytime look too. Paired with a cute black tee and the perfect pair of studded sandals, it's easy summer fashion.

Tribal Instincts

These shorts are actually from last summer and I had almost forgotten about them. Which is strange because I'm pretty sure I wore them almost every day last summer. But, anyway, I rediscovered them in my closet and remembered how much I love them. And instead of wearing them in a super casual way as I normally would with a black tank or tee I decided to change it up. Instead I wore a white blouse (I had been searching for the perfect one and just found this the other day) and my white pointed toe flats. 

One Of Those Days

Yesterday was just one of those days. The weather was not so great, I was tired, and was not really in the mood to take pictures. The outcome, a comfy-casual outfit, with no makeup (although most days I don't wear makeup anyway), and no jewelry. I do really love this sweatshirt though, it's the perfect throw on piece for those bad weather days. I was going to put on converse, but since I was too lazy to find socks I put on my pointed flats instead. And I must say I like the flats with the outfit. It's laziness at its finest, but it somehow all worked.

Summer Lovin'

Summer, florals, it's a no brainer. I love the laid back feel of these Free People cut-offs. Then the button down tank with a peter pan collar dresses it back up. And I absolutely love these new sandals. I've had so much trouble finding shoes this summer that don't leave me with beat-up feet. Part of that is probably mother nature's fault, since nothing is comfortable in 90 degree heat. But, anyways, I love this pair because of the color and the allover studs, and so far they're comfortable too. 

White On Point

With so many people trying it, I thought I'd tackle the all white trend. It's definitely risky, I mean wearing a white shirt anywhere is risk enough, but a whole white outfit? Certainly not something I'd wear out to dinner, but I love the summer chicness of it. I added my new Kurt Geiger pointed flats (a steal at $29, might I add) because pointed toes just add a certain sophistication and they are  very on trend for now and into the fall. And how do you like the title, I like to think I'm very clever. White on point, like right on point...  get it?
