All In One

Wearing: Top Sandro | Shorts A.L.C. | Sandals Steve Madden, Similar

One look that I love for fall is lacy silk slips and tanks layered over a tee. This shirt perfectly captures that look in just one piece, which is why I instantly fell in love with it. While it's still hot it works perfectly paired with shorts and as it gets cooler I can't wait to layer it more with a cozy sweater or a cool leather jacket. 

The Blues

Trying to savor the last bit of summer (even though it officially ended for me on Tuesday) with the most amazing baby blue shirt. This shirt is one of those super easy to wear pieces, and although it's pretty summery I will definitely try to wear this as far into fall as I can. 

Summer Whites

Wearing: Shorts Vince | Top Free People | Belt The Kooples | Shoes Steve Madden

You may recognize this top from my Lollapalooza post, but I love it so much I had to wear it again. This time, though, I styled it differently as part of an all white outfit. I just love how this top is like two pieces in one, because, well, I'm kind of lazy some days and two-in-one pieces like this make getting dressed super easy. And while I'm not typically a belt person, (this is the only one I own, for now) I really love how this one helps to break up all the white. 

Summer Dressing | Part 1

Wearing: Dress Aritzia | Shoes Steve Madden

As I've said before, there is no easier way to get dressed than throwing on a dress. No extra thought required, just one piece, and done. And dresses are also a great way to keep from over-heating in this ridiculous July weather. This dress is one of my favorites because it's such an easy to wear shape and the lace detailing adds a little something extra. 

Little Green Dress

There's nothing easier to wear on a hot summer day than a t-shirt dress. And this particular dress has a great cut and it super soft, making it a go-to item in my closet. I also love this army green color as it happens to work really nicely with my coloring, but there are also a bunch more color options in case green isn't your color.

Sporty Details

Wearing: Jeans Frame Denim | Top Theory | Shoes Steve Madden

Here's another easy to wear outfit idea featuring my favorite jeans (which I have in two colors). These jeans seriously feel like sweatpants, they are so comfy and stretchy. And I love the sporty details on the collar and shoulders on this tank. It's a perfect outfit for this weird un-summer like weather we've been having. And then maybe once the sun comes out again I can pair this top with some shorts instead.

Summer Sweaters

Wearing: Shorts Aritzia | Sweater Maje | Shoes Steve Madden

The weather has been ridiculously confusing lately, which only makes it harder to get dressed in the morning. One look I love for these in between days is shorts and a sweater. It's such a simple outfit solution. And I especially love a good, lightweight, knit like this one for a summer day. 

Neutral Territory

What I'm Wearing: Jeans J Brand | Top ADDISON | Sweater Michael Stars | Shoes Steve Madden | Hat Janessa Leone

By the time you are reading this I will be on a plane to South Africa. AHH! I'm so excited! But fear not, I have queued up some posts for while I'm gone. And you can follow along with my trip by following my instagram (@melissapaigee). But, back to the outfit. This one is certainly a rarity for me, as I am not usually one to show off my stomach but I just loved the idea of a crop top, high waisted jeans, and a long sweater so I had to try it out. And I threw my new hat on top, which I am absolutely in love with, especially since it's the only hat that I could find that fits my little head. 

Off-White

What I'm Wearing: Jeans One Teaspoon | Tee Similar | Shoes Steve Madden | Sunglasses Ray-Ban

I feel like I've been waiting so long to finally wear these pants, which were not easy to get. I fell in love with them online only to go back to buy them and find my size sold out, and not just on one website but on almost all of them. But finally I found them, and I am so happy because they are the perfect jeans for spring. These are the kind of pants that make me wish I had an awesome vintage tee collection because I picture them styled in a really cool edgy way, but at the same time I think they will also look just as good paired with some more feminine pieces as well. Either way, I decided to pair them with this The Who tee which has been sitting in my closet for a few years now. I really like how it created a wonderfully mismatched combination of off-whites, I think it somehow just kind of works. 

Luxe Leather

What I'm Wearing: Leggings BCBG | Tank BCBG | Shoes Steve Madden

I love leather, it's just so luxe, and sleek, and perfect. Honestly, I would love to wear some amount of leather everyday of the week, but that would be one expensive wardrobe. So a few key pieces like the perfect leather jacket (to be debuted soon), some leather leggings and/or pants, and maybe some leather accented sweaters are all you really need. Then some good faux leather pieces can be a good addition too. These leggings are just too good though, the leather front that wraps around. Ugh, I just love clothing with those perfect details. And the shirt, a good high neck is always acceptable. 

Pajama Party

What I'm Wearing: Pants Clover Canyon, Similar | Tee Aritzia | Shoes Steve Madden

While searching the racks at the Saks Off Fifth outlet I (well, my mom) found these amazing pants. Seriously, they are silk patterned pajama trend perfection. Comfort and style, truly a winning combination. With the pajama pant trend and the stylish sweatpants, I'm going to be some comfy all fall long. And, bonus, I found the perfect white tee at Aritzia. 

Summer Roundup

Summer is over. I mean sure, it's not totally fall weather, but it's definitely getting cooler. And, although I love summer, I am so ready to wear pants again, and sweaters, and boots. So, I thought I'd roundup my favorite summer outfits as a goodbye to shorts, tanks, and sandals. It sure was a great, and stylish, summer. Now I can't wait to show you what I've got for fall.
