Made In The Shade
As a Pisces, my mood changes based on my surroundings. When the weather is great, I just want to be outside and when it's not, all I want to do is stay inside and curl up in my bed with a good movie. So when the sun is shining, this gal likes to be out and about, and my outfit reflects such.
When I saw this tee in J Crew when I was in Atlanta, I just had to have it. It just speaks to me in so many ways. If you are new to the blog, you should know that I am obsessed with graphic tee's. My collection keeps growing and growing and it will never stop. I am wearing an XL, and the fit was perfect.
Ruffles are all the rage the season. I'm loving all the tops and skirts that have been adorned with them. I have been looking for a khaki colored one to wear with the tee, and I found this one from Lane Bryant. Their Lane Style collections have been a favorite of mines. They are a little bit more fashion forward and solely online. Once they are gone, they are gone, so as soon as I saw this skirt, I used my LB promo code and ordered it immediately. It is a true wrap skirt, which I like because you have the option to adjust as needed to make the fit work for you. Usually wrap skirts have several buttons for easier adjustments, but this one only came with one. I just went ahead and sewed on the additional button. It does have stretch, and the material is soft.
With all of the neutrals, I wanted my accessories to pop, so I wore my new headwrap from the Wrap Life. I bought my first headwrap last year and I have been obsessed since. This cutie is called the Thandi. When you are made in the shade, you definitely need a great pair of shades to compliment the look, so my Miu Miu's were the perfect accent to my look. I found these at a sample sale, and I love the exaggerated fun take on aviators. Summer dressing is all about ease, so I went with my Zara mules. The heel height makes these perfect for walking around. This color is sold out, but there are other colors still available and on sale. All that was needed was my trusty Dooney & Bourke tote and I was all set.
Now to enjoy my time in my sun. Later lovers!!!
