Planning For The Weather

Who gets married on Fourth of July weekend? My husband’s cousin does, that’s who!! So what do you wear to a noon, July wedding at an outdoor venue? Not a lot. I picked up this dress:

Ann Taylor Loft Sun Dress

From Ann Taylor Loft and will put a taupe belt with it. I also plan to punch up the color with this turquoise bag:

Banana Republic Clutch

The bag is from Banana Republic and I LOOOOVVEEE it. It has a very vintage feel to it and is surprisingly workable in my wardrobe. I am planning on wearing my tan Seychelles wedges and try not to look like I am sweating to pieces! I will post a picture when I have a chance to put it all together, but for now, I think it looks pretty good. Maybe we will have a cool snap and I will have to add a cardigan? Probably not. (Wishful thinking!)

No Summer Vacation For Mom!

Sorry about the two week hiatus…we had a graduate of Kindergarten at our house, so things got a little bit crazy. (Not really, but the end of the school year is kind of busy.) Anyhow, my camera was filled with Kindergarten stuff and I have finally gotten rid of the pictures…not that I have since taken any pictures of what I have been wearing, but at least now I am ready!

What I have been loving and using everyday this summer, so far, is this little bag from the Gap.

Super Straw Gap Bag

It is the perfect size to carry wallet, phone, and keys when you are just out running a few quick errands. The color is also really perfect to be a no brainer with all my summer clothes. I grabbed it while they were having a 35% off sale, so the price is really good too. Here it is in action while I was at my son’s soccer game. The size is really nice for a petite person.

The only drawback is when I received it (I got it online and it came through the mail) it was a bit smelly (the straw) but it dissipated very quickly.

Hopefully I am back in the swing of things and I will be able to post more often!
