Summer Ease

 I'm back from my trip & have a ton of pictures to share but I wanted to pop in for a quick outfit post before I do. This is a pretty typical summer outfit for me. Easy & no fuss are what I'm all about. I stick two my black and white stripes and denim because I know they can both do no wrong.

 Most of my favorite clothing pieces this summer have been separates much like this skirt & top. They are perfect for mixing and matching, and that makes getting dressed incredibly easy.

Denim on Denim

 Denim on denim is one of those fashion trends that is sort of scary. Pretty much every time I think about it I picture Justin and Britney decked out from head to toe way back when. Scary stuff. That is the look that you want to avoid when trying to wear an all denim outfit.

For me getting this look right was about keeping things super simple. You don't want to make the accessories too distracting or fussy. Cognac is my favorite neutral so I, of course, decided to pair my all denim outfit with all cognac accessories. Makes sense right?

I wasn't sure I'd like wearing all denim but I was surprised at how comfortable I was wearing denim on denim. Have you tried this trend?

June Bug

 I still don't think it's really sunk in that it's already June. To me June means it is officially summer. Summer in Texas means that it's about to get super hot. It can be tricky to know how to dress when the temperatures can get into the triple digits so having a skirt like this one that goes almost anything is perfect to have around.

 I stuck with a favorite color pallet of olive and denim with cognac, it's so simple but somehow just works so well together.

Bohemian Vibes

Have you ever tried to pinpoint what 'your style' is? It's a really difficult thing for me to do. I really like vintage fashion ranging from the 1940's to the 1970's. I also live minimalistic simple clothes, but sometimes I want to feel super casual or grungy. I don't know that I'll ever be able to choose one sort of style that I like, so I guess my style is eclectic? We'll go with that.

 For this outfit I was feeling Bohemian so I rolled with it. It was easy to do with this Aztec print top and some moccasins. I love boho style and I definitely want to keep my eye out for for essential boho pieces while thrifting like some amazing patterned pants, leather clogs, anything with fringe, and all thing Navajo and Aztec print. Lucky for me I live in Texas so these things aren't too difficult to come by.

Lazy Daze

 I'm definitely one of those people who likes to be lazy and kick back and relax while on vacation. This is pretty typical of what I like to wear while relaxing. I love when things are no fuss, and it doesn't get much more low maintenance than denim cut-offs and a T-shirt.

 As you can see I didn't even bother with shoes, that's just how I roll. I figured I made up for it with adding on some extra accessories in the straw hat and some retro inspired shades. I am still all about simple outfits, but I love having fun with my sunglasses.

Summer Uniform

 It has quickly come apparent to me that throwing this denim vest over a dress is my new favorite go to look for the summer. It's just too easy and I love how it looks every time. Denim is just SO versatile. I definitely recommend adding a denim piece other than jeans to your wardrobe, whether it be a denim jacket or a vest. They go with nearly everything.

 I also finally go my hands on some aviators (they're an incredibly cheap pair but they do they job and they look cute, so I'm happy), I seriously don't know how I lived without some for so long. I love classic pieces and it doesn't get much more classic or timeless than denim and aviators ;)

 Adding classic and timeless pieces into my wardrobe is something that has been really motivating a lot of my most recent purchases, and I'm sure this will only continue during this summer. I'm really dying to go thrifting again soon to look for more items like these for my summer wardrobe. It seems like it's been ages since I got to scratch that thrifting itch ;)

A New Hat

 Today was a really great day for two reasons. Number one, this hat came in the mail. My husband and I both ordered new spring/summer hats from H&M and they came in before our beach trip (always nice when things work out). The second thing that made today great was that my sister came to visit today :)

 My sister lives a couple hours away and has been crazy busy with school, but she recently graduated and with some of her first free days she came up to see me and to craft a little bit. I've missed her like crazy and it was so great to catch up and just spend some time with her again.

 I'm hoping our little craft days can become a regular thing, because it's nice to have someone to get excited for silly projects with. We were already scheming ways to make our own rag or t-shirt scrap rugs. We're gonna make it happen ;)

 Few things can make me as happy as a new hat and a visit from my sister. Although I have to admit, life has been really great lately. (knock on wood!)

May Day

 May is already promising to be a really amazing month. I know we're only a few days in, but as I mentioned in my previous post, I have a whole lot going on this month. I've always like May because it always marked the beginning of summer break from school as a kid, and our annual family vacation to the beach. We still continue that tradition, so naturally I still look forward to May.

In Texas, May also brings also brings us summer weather. It's been consistently warm enough to wear sandals, dresses, and shorts every day of the week. I'm loving every second of this weather! I love getting to layer clothing in cooler months but there is something so exciting just to be able to wear outfits without tights or close-toed shoes.

This denim vest is definitely going to be in regular rotation this summer because it is the perfect accessory to breathe new life into a piece you've worn a hundred times. It looks cute paired up with pretty much every dress in my closet. I'm in love.

These aviators are also my new favorites. I scored them at the local grocery store with a coupon for less than $2. My thrifty nature knows no bounds. I'd been hunting for some aviators and these fit the bill.
