I can't believe that it is already mid-August. This summer has flown by and in just a few weeks time I will head back to work. I can't lie, while I am a summer girl through and through, I am just a little excited to start wearing my favorite fall pieces again! This cargo vest has been one of my staples for a few years now. I got so excited when we had a chillier summer day and I could pull it out. It paired so perfectly over my Mikarose maxi dress! This is definitely an outfit I will be wearing in September to school. It is the perfect teacher-outfit as it is comfy and modest! I am loving a lot of the clothing over at Mikarose for the modesty factor. As a first grade teacher, I need clothes that are easy to move in while still being professional and I am blown away by all of the fantastic options Mikarose has to offer!
This outfit is one I will re-create often and you can too! I've linked a bunch of similar military vest options below and check out all of the adorable maxi dress options here!
In all of the craziness the past month, I completely forgot to post these photos. Imagine my surprise, when scrolling through my computer files I stumble across these. Oops! Better late than never!
You may have seen this dress make an appearance (or two...or three) on my instagram. It's definitely been one of my favorites this summer because it is white (so bridal...remember this post?), lace and off the shoulder. 3 of my favorite things rolled in to one! Not to mention, it's under $50!
Loving this trend too?? Check out more white off the shoulder dresses here!
This week's blogger of the week from last week's link-up is Sheree of Posh Classy Mom. Obviously I am obsessing over Sheree's white crochet off the shoulder top. I love that she paired it with a navy hi-low skirt. Does she not look absolutely chic???

I am so sorry for the inconsistent blogging lately! Honestly, it has been hard getting back into the swing of things after the wedding and honeymoon! I've currently been spending my days settling in to our new place, which has turned in to a gigantic disaster zone. I am such a perfectionist when it comes to setting things up and I like things in their forever home the first time I put them away. This makes for quite the mess as things are literally scattered everywhere while I decided and spend time considering where their perfect forever home should be. Give me a week and I will hopefully have everything in order! Anybody else like this?
On top of all of this, I head back to work soon, which will cause blogging inconsistency again as I settle in to a new school year. I will be spending some time working out a new blogging schedule that works well alongside work AND being a newlywed. That's right...got to make some time for hubby too:)
This outfit has been one of my go to's lately! I love that I can throw this little printed dress on and automatically look put together! I have been wearing my hat almost every day as well, as I find it is the perfect cover for not wearing makeup or doing my hair. Thank goodness for hat days!
Leather pumps are not just a fall essential, but rather a year round must! A great pair of pumps can instantly transform an outfit. I am currently lusting over some new pumps, including ALL of the below. In fact, a few of the pairs are at the very top of my fall wish list. Whether you are going for something with a classic shape or something more on trend, all of these options are something you are sure to re-wear all year long! Check out some of my favorite leather high-heel options or if a heel is not on your radar, try a leather pointed flat for that similar instant chic effect! Add a great pair of jeans in to the mix and you've got the perfect fall outfit!
