Summer Sundress

I am usually not a sucker for pink but ever since buying a coat in the same color last year I can’t get enough of it. This year alone I have already purchased a t-shirt and two dresses in this hue and I have found it nice to step out of my “comfort zone.” I know most of you are already experiencing fall or starting to experience cooler weather but I would keep your eye on this dress for when it goes on sale. I promise you will wear the s&*% out of it next summer! I have packed it in my bags to Geneva, Paris, London, Dallas, Naples, and next up Marfa and Cuba and it has been absolutely perfect for each setting. I have worn it with sandals (like here) and my nude heels! Each time I wear it I feel great in it, which makes purchasing something 100% worth it!

The Traveling Loafer

IMG_9367 (1)

When traveling I always want a closed toe, comfortable shoe. I absolutely hate the thought of wearing flip flops at the airport. Something about it just grosses me out. Since comfort is always key I tend to wear a lot of loafers. I usually love Tod’s and Cole Haan (pictured). Because I know summer travels are coming to an end and holiday travel is just about to begin I wanted to help you find your next airport loafer! I found a vast selection of loafers at every price point and color! I hope you find your next traveling loafer!

C’est Bon

C’est Bon means, It’s Good. Often times french speakers use it during a meal, shopping, etc. but I am using it for this striped Dress. Not only did I wear it while running errands all over Dallas before leaving but it was a staple while I was in Paris. I wore it with sneakers, under a blazer, and over a button-up blouse. It is a classic closet piece that everyone needs! And don’t think it is only for summer, this fall/winter I am excited to pair it with stockings (I own these and love them), over-the-knee boots (just bought these for $80), and a duster coat. The other day someone told me they thought my style was east coast (which I almost died) because of all the stripes I wear. And all I could respond was, “Paris my dear, Paris.” It really is true the Parisians wear a lot of stripes and it was a trend I really didn’t mind adopting. Another trend I noticed which all of them wore – tucking their shirts into everything! Their shirts were fully tucked into jeans, skirts, and pants. I am not that brave yet (my butt isn’t so cute when it is fully exposed) so stripes it is!
