Back to Basics

Even as someone who loves to get dolled up, sometimes I like to throw on a tee and some shorts and call it a day. With this Louisiana weather, things heat up pretty quickly around here. This simple little outfit I put together is compiled from basics that all girls most likely have in their closets. Outfits like these are lifesavers when you’re out of things to wear (I often look at my closet full of clothes and say ‘I have nothing to wear…’).

I paired a simple back tee with my all time favorite pair of distressed high-waisted denim shorts from Articles of Society. Since I was running errands, I added my monogram necklace (simple, but it’s such a statement piece), my Jacks (because obviously…), and my Mini MAC (which is the best cross body bag I’ve ever owned!).

My formula for the perfect simple outfit:

Solid Tee + Denim + Accessories

Zach and I went to hang out today in downtown Cov (one of our fave places to take pictures) and the heat was sweltering. Like by the time we were done taking pictures, we were DEAD. Today’s outfit is another USA themed look (what is this.. my third of the month?! See the other two here.) I found this adorable shift dress at TJ Maxx (I couldn’t find anything like it online, so sorry y’all) and I paired it with the chunky multi-stranded pearl necklace. My blue glitter Jacks and my Mini MAC completed the look. Ugh, I felt so classy in it! The dress is the perfect length and I loved the pop of pearls.

On another note, did y’all notice my chop? I got about three inches cut off last week. I haven’t been able to play with it too much yet, so I’ve been rocking the straight look. Any cute shorter hairstyles y’all know of of? Let me know!

How adorable is this combo?! I’m so obessed with easy outfits for the summer. Just throw on some chinos and a shirt, and I’m good to go. Today I styled my Bananna Republic textured chinos with a chambray popover from Old Navy. Unfortunately both of these items are out of season so I linked something similiar for both! I’m really digging the simplicty of this outfit.

As for accessories, I’m sporting my MK sport watch in tortise (Are y’all seeing a trend here? This is my fave everyday watch! Expect to see it again!), and this gorgeous gold chain bracelet from stella&dot. The piece is so great to stack with a watch and some bangles. It’s so eye catching and I love how simple it is! My 3 inch monogram necklace makes its return as well (another everyday staple of mine! I may have to get a new one soon, considering I’ve worn this baby down!). I’m still carrying my Forver 21 black faux-leather tote because I can fit soo much stuff in it! Today I managed to fit my computer, camera, a book, my agenda and a notebook in this bad boy! Not too shabby for a bargain bag! I’m also wearing my Ray Ban Clubmasters (remember how I told y’all I was a sunglass hoarder. Well here’s exhibit A.), which are the cutest! I can’t get over the vintage vibe they add to the look.

I’m wearing my Jacks as well, no surprise. These are the Hamptons sandals in bone with white whipstitching.

Palmin’ Around

Dang y’all, I have seen this palm print everywhere these days. Seriously everywhere. On rompers, dresses, skirts, shirts– you name it, it’ll most likely come in a palm print.

My outfit for today was centered around my Old Navy flat front palm print shorts. I’m loving these right now! They go so great with white, but you could definitely get away with a black top too. I paired them with a white 3/4 length sleeve Piko. Words cannot describe my obsession with Piko tops. I swear I have almost 10! They are so easy! In the winter, you can add a vest and a scarf and you’re good to go. For summer, I like styling them with a pair of shorts or even jeans and my Jacks. They’re made out of 90% bamboo, so they won’t shrink or lose their shape (which is awesome if you just throw everything in the wash together, like me!) and they are the softest. They come in a variety of sleeve lengths, so you can find one for every season. The long sleeve and short sleeve are my fave.

For accessories, I added my floppy hat and my new mirrored Ray Ban aviators (check out my post on them here!) along with a black faux leather tote. Ugh, I’m such a fan of totes because I carry around my whole life with me. Literally. The tote is super roomy and has a few little pockets on the side along with zippers on the sides that expand the tote for more stuff! Plus, I got a great deal on it so that’s always nice too!

My stack today consisted of my everyday watch– the Michael Kors tortoise shell sport watch, a stella&dot green bangle, and my Alex and Ani charm bracelet (Note to self: I need more of these!). It was pretty simple today.

My gold Jacks topped off the whole look. Do yourself a favor and buy a pair of Jacks. These are my favorite summer shoes. I own six pairs and I continue to buy more! They are such a good-looking shoe, you honestly can’t go wrong with them.

Do y’all own any palm print items? How do you style them?

Ray Ban Vision

Posted in Fashion

on 07/18/2015

Holy cow, mail day is my favorite thing. When I got home today, I was so overjoyed to see I received these bad boys in the mail! In Maine recently, I broke my Ray Ban Large Aviators with the green lenses and gold frame. I was so devastated. It’s a good thing I’m a sunglass hoarder and brought two pairs with me!

I immediately knew I needed to replace the pair I had broken. My aviators are such a staple in my wardrobe– I never leave the house without them! They provide sun protection and style! I hopped onto eBay and ended up finding a new pair in the box and everything for $70! How crazy is that? I’m super into eBay, so I have some strategies I use to win bids (lol eBay ain’t no joke!) and they helped me win this pair!

Now onto the specs: these are the Ray Ban Large Metal Aviator sunglasses (style number RB3025) with green flash lenses. And let me just say– I’m so so in love. They have matte gold frames, which I’ve never actually seen before, so I thought that was unique. The large aviator style is the perfect size for my face (I wouldn’t say I have a particularly big or small face, but normal size). I’m loving how much glam they add to any look. They are the perfect accessory to top off any summer look. Ugh I’m seriously imagining soo many outfits I could make with these bad boys. They definitely grab attention!

If you’re in the market for a pair of sunglasses, I would 10/10 recommend the Ray Ban Large Aviators. Regardless of what color lenses and/or frame, you’ll end up loving them.

Do you have a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses? If so, what kind?
