Turquoise

Happy Wednesday! Hopefully you’ve been having a pretty awesome week so far.

I wore this outfit while in Colorado for a day of driving and exploring cities. I love that it looks like a romper (like the two-piece set in this post), but doesn’t have any of the fit or functionality issues of one. This is one of my go-to summer outfits because it keeps me cool and allows me a little more movement than a dress or skirt, which I also love to wear on hot days. However, the materials of the shirt and shorts in particular are very static-prone, which is quite annoying. If anyone has any suggestions to prevent static, I’d love to hear them!

These pictures don’t have the best lighting because a summer thunderstorm was rolling in. Does anyone else love summer thunderstorms? I think they are a lot of fun to watch from a covered porch or from your window, and the smell of rain in the summer is so refreshing!

Ruffles in the Wind

Good morning! I hope everyone had a fun and relaxing weekend.

This is another outfit from my trip to Iowa. I wore this to mass one morning and then to breakfast with a large group of people. I love the lace detailing on the back—it’s such a cute addition to the blouse! While the ruffles are very pretty, there is an awkward seam down the middle of the shirt that can make it a little uncomfortable.

I could see this top dressed up on someone for work with a black pencil skirt and a cardigan, or it could be dressed down for the weekend with skinny jeans and sandals. I love this look because it is a mix between the two!

Blouse: Kohl’s, $20, similar here and here

Slacks: H&M, $30

Purse: Charming Charlie, $15, purse in other colors

Sandals: Target, $15
