Hey Guys! Did you have a fabulous weekend?! I know I’ve been a little MIA around here the last few days, but with all the craziness of the end of the school year for my kids and some new projects for business I’ve been working on, plus a bunch of house projects and I just had to slow down and take a minute last week if you know what I mean.
Which brings me to: I need your help. I would love to know what kind of stuff you’d like to see around here? Do you want more approachable fashion, more mom stuff, house stuff? Leave a comment and tell me what you want to see more of. Some of the suggestions I’ve been getting over on instagram and in my email are: fitness (workout, and eating), how I’m decorating our farmhouse, how I curl my hair, how I get everything done with 4 kids, mom outfits, etc. So let me know if any of those interest you, and what else you’d like to see on here.
Okay, now lets talk casual summer dresses. It finally got hot here in New England over the weekend and I couldn’t be happier about it. It also meant an immediate wardrobe mind shift. One of the most frequent questions I get asked during the summer months, is how I stay cool while also feeling put together. I’m Mormon, which means I always wear sleeves and my dresses and shorts need to be longer for religious reasons, which can make getting dressed in the summer months a real pain. Casual summer dress are totally my secret weapon. And the great thing is, they are awesome whether you are a mom taking your kids to the park, or work in an office. It’s all about how you wear them.
Take this amazing white shirtdress (which is on sale for $36 right now). I styled it with my favorite new platform oxfords and a denim jacket for an afternoon out and about, then dinner with my husband, but you could throw on some summer heels and it’s office ready, or slide into some flip-flops and throw your hair up in a pony and you’re ready for the park. I think it would also be so cute with wedges, or a pair of sneakers and a leather jacket. See? Endless possibilities, and it’s comfortable, cool and super flattering.
If you’re not sure what to wear and the weather is just throw on a casual summer dress, instantly chic outfit.
I rounded up a bunch of really cute ones at really great prices below:
