Summer Sweater with Shorts Outfit
A sweater with shorts is one of my favorites looks to wear in the summertime... when the weather is cooperating, that is. Yes, I realize my southern sisters don't know this foreign language with which I speak, and that's a shame because it's a fun look to wear.

How to Wear Bermuda Shorts Without Looking Frumpy
Many women over a certain age don't want to wear short shorts, but cropped pants can be hot, and let's face it, we don't always want to wear dresses, so they often opt for Bermuda shorts. But Bermuda shorts can skew frumpy, so I have some tips to help you choose and style these longer shorts to create a look that is stylish and flattering.

$8 T-Shirt Dress Two Ways
You know me, I love my jean shorts in the summertime. I wear them almost every day, but sometimes a girl wants a casual look that does not involve shorts, so a t-shirt dress is the next best thing. And when said t-shirt dress is $8... you buy three! I'm not usually a fan of buying multiples, but when a closet basic like this that can be worn so many ways is less than $10, I'm willing to make an exception.

Striped Sweater Tank Outfit
I fell in love with this striped sweater tank the second I saw it on the Loft website, and YAY, it's 40% off right now!!! Besides the bold black and white stripes, I also really like the wide straps and square neckline in both the front and back. I wore this sweater to church on Sunday with the same white jeans, my red espadrilles, and a black bag; but for this look I switched it around and wore black sandals and carried a red bag.

The Perfect Striped Straw Tote for Summer
Nothing says summer quite like a striped straw tote, and when they add a colorful pom-pom tassel, you have the perfectly accessorized summer bag! This one is fully lined with a zipper panel and a wide patch pocket, and it's under $40.

How to Wear Shorts with Ballet Flats
Typically I think of shorts as a casual wardrobe piece for wearing with flat sandals or fashion sneakers, or I will dress them up with wedge sandals for a daytime event, but it's also fun to pair your shorts with ballet flats. This is an outfit I'd wear in the summertime to the mall or to meet a friend for coffee or a casual lunch. It's a little dressier than jean shorts and a t-shirt, but it's still cool and comfortable for those hot summer days.

WORK TO WEEKEND: Pink Chiffon Blouse Two Ways
It's been about a minute since I styled white jeans so I thought I'd share this look today. I know, I way overwear this summer staple, but they are the perfect base for so many outfits. While this blouse looks great with dark denim and lighter wash styles, I love how the white base brings out the white in the pattern and makes the pink all the more vibrant. I also styled this blouse with white shorts for a more casual weekend look.

Mandarin Collar Shift Dress
Greetings, friends! Today I'm sharing a mandarin collar shift dress that came in my latest Trunk Club delivery. This is one of those dresses I didn't know I needed until I saw it, and now I'm thinking of all kinds of places to wear it.

Brighten Up Your Summer Style with a White Denim Jacket
Whenever I write a Summer Wardrobe Essentials post, a white denim jacket always makes the list. It's so crisp and fresh, and it works with dresses and jeans and everything in between. My all-time favorite denim jacket is this one from Kut from the Kloth. The fit is fantastic, and it has such nice shaping through the waist. Plus I love the lightweight denim -- it's not too hot even in warmer weather.

Tassel Trim Tank with Pink Jeans and Comfort Sandals
Hello Tuesday! Today I'm styling this tassel trim embroidered tank I picked up at Nordstrom a few weeks ago. It just went on sale, so I'm expecting sizes to start selling out. If you like it, don't waste time putting it in your cart! I think this top is really cute and fun for something different, and it's super lightweight and easy breezy for these hot summer days.

Red Knot Waist Top Outfit with Cropped Jeans
Can a girl have too many knot waist tops? I think not! I admit, I'm a sucker for this trend, and I've got a few different styles -- some that tie and others like this with more of a twist detail in the front -- but this one might be my favorite one yet.
