What to Wear to A Summer BBQ This Weekend

May 21st // 1 Comment

BBQs are one of the best parts of summer and with the official kick off this weekend, I’m deciding what to wear for our Memorial Day festivities. BBQ outfits need to be casual so a few go-to essentials like a sundress for summer, swimsuit and sandals are really all we need. Here are three summer BBQ outfits perfect for any plans, from your backyard to a day at the beach (I’m leaning towards the maxi dress!).

Summer Hair Accessories: Head Scarves!

May 20th // 4 Comments

Whether you wear them retro like Jackie Kennedy, as a headband like Mary Kate Olsen or a turban like Kourtney Kardashian, head scarves for women are a summer accessory that shouldn’t be ignored. The simple and versatile piece of fabric pretty much makes your entire look (or at the very least covers up a bad hair day!) and can be worn so. many. different ways. Do you wear head scarves? Here a few cute ones I love below + be sure to link to your favorites in the comments! xo

Orange Crush!

May 19th // 1 Comment

Guest Blogger: Shane Ross | www.iamfashionweak.com

Hello, my name is Shane and I confess… I have a crush on orange! Orange is my go-to color this summer. It’s something about orange that just makes me happy! I actually have to tell myself, “No more orange!” I recently purchased this Tangerine print shirt from J. Crew and it is undoubtedly my favorite. It’s lightweight, which makes it perfect for cool days or nights, and can be worn with jeans and a blazer, or for warmer days, roll up the sleeves and throw it on with some denim shorts.

The weather was quite cool this weekend, so I wore my lovely tangerine shirt with jeans and heels. What is your go-to color this summer?

Summer Style Craving: The Crop Top

May 16th // Comment Here

Not for the fashion faint of heart but the crop top certainly makes a statement for summer! Dressed up, down or even under a blazer if it gets chilly, breaking out the crop top will keep you on trend this season. And while I love the glamorous mesh option from Topshop (shown below 3 different ways!), crop tops for summer come in endless prints and styles so you can find the one that fits you best.

I loved the white crop top Julia Restoin-Roitfeld recently wore to the Romy And The Bunnies site launch – see the looks she inspired below! xo

Spring Accessories: A Drop in the Bucket {Bag}

May 15th // 3 Comments

Spring and summer are all about ditching that oversized tote and choosing a handbag that holds those select few summer essentials. The perfect medium between that satchel and clutch sitting in your closet are bucket handbags. Ladies who love a show-stopping bag that looks chic but is also convenient should start shopping bucket bags for spring, asap. Check out my favorite designer and budget friendly bucket bag options below.
