July 2015 Outfit Recap
Chambray Dress

how-to-wear-black-distressed-denim-1
I’m not thrilled about Monday but oh well let’s do this. Hope you guys had a great weekend, mine was good and low key. I cooked a lot and got a lot done. I am finally doing it, I know I always talk about cutting back on blogging but now I’m really doing it. 3 posts weekly sounds great to me.

In this outfit, I feel like I’m wearing all of my favorite things. These booties were the best purchase ever and I’m so happy to have them in camel as well. Lately when going out I am always wearing a version of this, sometimes with shorts or flats, but it’s really a no fail formula. Just jazz it up with a cute necklace, bracelet and you are good to go.

My “Pick of the Week“are these crazy tights, how fun and colorful are they? If you like them make sure to go on Bandier and most of all check out K-Deer.

        Yes, and I do like it! I am just so picky about what I buy since I have a limited budget. It has to be exactly what I am looking for. You know? Holding out for stripes. I really like the red and blue striped one with the cream background that Gina has. I’ve almost bought it approximately 15 times… 😉

    I love the patchwork style of these jeans. And I do 3 posts a week and think that’s a fantastic number. I couldn’t imagine doing more than that. Three posts is a good way to still have balance in your life.

    Good for you for cutting back. This is one of my favorite shirts of yours. I regret not buying it when it was in the store. Love the jewelry too!

    Well you know what I did this weekend. And yes Mondays are tough, I cut back to 3 posts a week last summer when I started a full time job in publishing. And LOVE the “boots” kind of like a mock mule, very cool.

    Living in New England, I feel like it took me a long time to realize who would ever want a peep toe bootie. Then I realized they are for people in florida.

    Proud of you for scaling back a little to live life a little fuller! I think you will be happy that you did. (And now I feel like I can keep up with commenting on your posts a little better too!! Woo!!) And naturally this outfit is fantastic. I’d say it’s pretty also one of my go-to uniforms. It’s easy to dress up or down for just about any occasion.

    Loving the stripes! I actually scaled back to posting 1-2 posts a week because it became so hard for with a full time job. I can always do a few more quick posts if I’m really inspired. Great link up!

    Red looks really good on you and I like it with the gold jewellery. Wouldn’t mind owning that Minkoff handbag, either! 😉
