Summer Lovin’

It’s a scorcher out there today! I have “Happy Hour” plans with some life-long friends tonight and it’s hard to plan an outfit in this humidity. Shorts are a must, but I always get cold in the air conditioning. I pulled out my “look book” for some inspiration.

I adore this look. Oversized denim shorts are great because they allow air to circulate. A light-weight three quarter sleeve top is a wonderful option because it will keep my arms warm. I like an over-sized bag because I can throw a cardigan in there in case of a chill. Add the right jewelry and a gladiator sandal and you have the perfect look for an summer evening.

A sheer coral blouse is gorgeous against a tan, and can keep you cool too. Super short cut-offs paired with a belt are the perfect compliment to a flowy top. Simple but edgy jewelry pulls it all together. No shoes are shown, but I think a wedge would be the ultimate choice for this ensemble.

Dressing can be tricky in the summer because weather can change in a flash and you never know who’s going to have air conditioning. That’s why I always make sure I have a layering piece with my when sporting short sleeves. Denim shorts can easily be dressed up with the right accessories and shoes, as can most tops. The most important thing is to have fun and stay cool!

What’s Inspiring Me Today

I’ve been catching up on Pinterest this morning and have found some fabulous inspiration. That’s the thing I love about this sight-you’re constantly finding new and amazing ideas. Here are a few of my favorite images this moment.

Everything about this look is perfection. It’s simple yet chic, and she’s adorable.

Accessories rule in this look. From her simple earrings to the giant bag, this girl knows it’s important to add finishing touches. Even her watch and cocktail ring are important elements. And of course, I adore the topknot.

Men’s shirt, patterned tights, and men’s inspired footwear-the Olsen’s can do no wrong!

Where do I start? I am desperately trying to find a stack heeled shoe like this. The texture and the bow add interest and glamour.

Nothing is more comfortable than a vintage tee. They are almost like a second skin and can be quite sexy!

Picture perfect. I’m not wishing for winter, but if I lived here it might be more bearable.

Stunning! The colors, the silhouette, and the details are fantastic.

Vintage Birkins. Can I please just have one?

This image inspired me to do a post today!! I really dig her curly hair and caftan-esque dress.

I have to wear all black to work now and I really love this combination. I don’t think I could run miles around my store all day in those shoes tho!

Vintage gown circa 1950′s. There was something quite magical about the dresses from that era.

I’d never get out of bed. So whimsical and fairy-like.

I’m always on the hunt for bathroom ideas. The grey subway tile is elegant yet industrial.

No matter what you’re looking for, you can find it on Pinterest. If you’re not already pinning, I suggest you hop to it!!

Target Spring Collection

I love Target. It really is one-stop shopping, with products that are not only affordable, but fashionable as well. When I was growing up in the 70′s and 80′s, there was no way we would have worn clothes from the big box giant, but their apparel has come a long way in the past couple decades and this spring promises to be one of their best seasons yet. Here’s a sneak peak at their spring collection. Get your wallets out ladies!
