Happy Wednesday, babes! I am definitely feeling a mid-week slump as this is my first full week back to work and it just feels like it's creeping by. I've definitely thought today was Thursday more than once. Doesn't it feel like it should be Thursday??
When I saw my favorite jeans are now available in the perfect shade of olive green, I had to snag them! At under $100, these jeans are the perfect pair for fall and I love the busted knee look! I paired them with a cute striped peplum top for an easy weekend look. This peplum tee is the SOFTEST thing I have ever felt and under $30!
Happy Thursday friends! Yesterday was my first day back in the classroom! As much as I loved it, I forget how totally exhausted I am after being back with the kiddos! I have the greatest group this year and know it's going to be a great school year!
The start of school definitely means fall is ALMOST here! While it's still warm, there is a crispness in the air, the leaves are slowly starting to turn and it's almost sweater weather! I've been stocking up on new fall pieces that I can wear now and transition into cooler weather! Free People is one of my go to brands for new seasonal pieces as they have the best neutrals that often come in a variety of colors. One of the reasons I LOVE shopping at Nordstrom is their wide variety of brands, like Free People, making them my one stop shop for all things fall! When shopping for fall, I am all about the basics, looking for neutral pieces that can be styled many different ways and layered up!
Chunky Knit Sweaters: I LIVE in cozy sweaters from September to March. I love chunkier knits because I can layer them easily and they are the perfect alternative to a jacket when the weather cools down. This cozy cardi has been my favorite lately! Despite the knit, it's heavier than expected and will be my go to all fall and winter long!
Comfy T-shirts: I'm all about comfort, and in the fall and winter a t-shirt is often my base layer, so it obviously needs to be comfy! This one comes in 5 colors and I want them all!! Not only is it ridiculously soft, but I adore the key-hole cutout which adds a cool touch that will be perfect peaking from under a sweater or cardi!
Distressed Denim: A great pair of distressed jeans is one of my year round must haves! I absolutely LIVE in this pair, and the best part? They come in multiple washes (see the widget below!) and are under $100! Pair your favorite distressed denim with sandals or mules now and booties and OTK boots when the season changes!
I've been living in this top lately! I bought it in two colors and could not pick a more perfect summer top! It's light-weight and airy and the ruffles add a fun, feminine touch, making this top easy to dress up for date night! This top is currently on sale for under $40 and comes in 4 gorgeous colors (I also own the pink!!).
Don't forget to link up one of your latest posts below! I love stopping by and reading what you've been up to, but have slacked the past two weeks and forgot to post the link up!!
Looking forward to getting some new outfit inspo from you!!
Can you believe it's already June?!? The past few months have flown by!! Isn't that always how it is when you have a ton of things to accomplish in a short amount of time? The next week and a half will be a little crazy for me as I finish the school year. I've got report cards to do, I will be moving classrooms and I will be completing my pro-cert. WHEW. I am so excited for my summer break to start!
Speaking of summer break, I'm sharing one of my go to summer combos. I wore this exact outfit in Mexico, and knew it would be on repeat all summer long. I actually took photos of it IN Mexico, but they didn't turn out due to the humidity. We don't have that problem here, and I never realized that it would cause your lens to fog up! What do those of you that deal with this do when this happens?!
This top from Antique Garden is a summer must have! I love the color and the ruffle at the top. The best part is the slightly cropped fit, making it perfect for pairing with high-waisted denim! This is an easy outfit to throw on while running errands or enjoying the sunshine!!
It's officially warmed up here and I am breaking out all of my favorite sundresses and sandals! I love a good trendy piece or accessory, especially when it doesn't break the bank, but there are a few pieces I am willing to splurge on that I know I will wear from summer to summer. A neutral pair of sandals, a classic clutch and a great pair of sunnies are things I am willing to spend a little more on because I know I will wear them again and again!
A white clutch is a summer must! It goes with everything and is perfect for summer night's out or when attending a wedding. I was sold the minute I saw this Kate Spade perforated option. The cutout detailing adds a unique touch but it's perfect size makes this cutie a summer classic to be styled from year to year!
Every few years I invest in a pair of neutral sandals. Something comfortable and cute that I can take from work to running errands on the weekend. This option has been on my wishlist for quite some time and I finally decided to purchase them this year. I have already worn them so much and can't believe how comfortable they are! They are also perfect for summer travel! If you've been eyeing these, you should definitely pick up a pair. They are worth the splurge and I promise you won't regret it!
A great pair of sunnies is something you will wear year round. I've had these for a few years now and they continue to be my most worn pair. The classic shape and color make these an investment that you will wear year after year!
