Hello!  How is your weekend going?  Long Beach is pretty busy with the music festival going on this weekend.  This friendly beach town always has a lot of events going on, great shopping, and delicious restaurants!  One of my favorite spots to go to for some peace and quiet is by a little lake with a dock and these darling dandelions.  My boyfriend likes to take me to this spot for picnic lunches occasionally on the weekend.  

Have you ever been to an LF?  They have boutiques in Los Angeles, New York, Boston, South Beach, and Dallas. Recently, I discovered an LF outlet and decided to go in.  That's where I found these awesome teal tie dye denim shorts from Car Mar.  Car Mar is an LA based brand and they make high quality denim shorts in all sorts of colors and designs.  They have some great sales on high-quality on trend items and the staff is very helpful as well.  These mirrored cat eye pink and purple sunglasses from Christian Dior was another great find this summer from Nordstrom Rack.  They carried them in purple and blue as well, but sold out quickly.  They are the perfect accessory to add a little fun with sophistication to your summer wardrobe.

Do you collect designer vintage bags?  This Louis Vuitton hobo bag is vintage.  It's a medium white Mahina bag and is the perfect choice for most summer outtfits with the airy eyelet perforation detail and warm gold hardware.  I love this bag and it's definitely a keeper for a handbag collection.  This lightweight fringe tunic from Free People is one of my favorite pieces.  It's so versatile and can be worn from summer to winter over flare leg jeans and a long sleeve shirt underneath.  It has the perfect amount of edge and style to add interest to any outfit.  Lastly, I've had these tan leather criss cross wedges from Chloe for a while and they are my go to summer staple shoe because they pair with everything.  What are some of your summer staples?  I'd love to hear from you.

Hope you are having a fun weekend!

Hey there!  How are you?  It's been quite some time since my last post and it's because I have been having so much fun enjoying my summer.  So, without further ado, I wanted to post some of my summer looks over the next few weeks before fall settles in. 

How do you feel about tribal prints, tie dye, and bright colors? These are my favorite pieces to wear during the summer months.  This swimsuit from Billabong incorporates all three of these elements.  I was excited to find it because I am extremely picky when it comes to swimwear.  How about you?  

What do you like to do at the beach?  Go for a walk, bike or skate?  Walking around on the strand requires comfy sandals.  I have worn these Reef sandals for a couple years now and they are super comfy. Also, this tank top from Free People was just the right length for a petite frame and is made of really lightweight material with a pretty ruffle on it. It's actually a medium tank top, but it also worked as a cover-up for the beach.  This necklace by Robert Lee Morris is one of my favorite necklaces right now.  These cool colors of blue and green are so soothing and remind me of serene beaches and earthy foliage.  I'm going to try to style it into more outfits in the future, but it will always remind me of summer.  Hope you enjoyed this post.

Hope you have a lovely week!
