Ladylike Summer

Belt-Target

Flats-Steve Madden

So, if this dress looks familiar, you got a sneak peek of it here. I love it too much not to let it have its time to shine in a proper outfit post. From the light pretty colors, ladylike length and cap sleeves, adorable little lacy/sheer cutouts on the shoulder and upper back....it is perfect in my book!

How was everyones weekend?! Well, I guess it's Tuesday now...but I have a 4 day weekend this time around...so I am still in weekend mode. We in the Seattle area have had some of the hottest weather all year! It got up in the high 90's, low 100's in some places. Considering people don't really have air conditioning around here, it can get kinda toasty and uncomfy. But, since this girl did live in South Texas for a few years, it wasn't too bad!

We spent Saturday meeting up with my parents in Olympia for lunch and fun times. Sunday the hubs and I went to Seafair and watched the Blue Angels fly above Lake Washington. Soooo cool! If you live in the area or are visiting during Seafair, you have to watch this impressive show! Yesterday and today we have been catching up on some chores, organizing one of our hellish closets and relaxing before I start my new job on Wednesday. Eeeeep! So excited!

Hope you all have a great week!

Black, White & Bows

Had to throw one in of the sweet hubs and I :)

Do you ever find yourself creating outfits in your mind around an article of clothing that you don't even own yet? You daydream of all the ways you would style said piece until you can no longer take the torture, so you go purchase it.

White jeans have been that item for me lately. Something about white jeans just screams summer to me. Of course, the first thing I chose to pair them with is so not summery and bright.....black. 

Meh, oh well.

At least I threw in some color with the pretty flowers, right?

 Also, I can't get enough of this adorable blouse covered with little white bows. So sweet and it has my favorite collar ever, peter pan! Can you see it in the photos?

Hope you all had the most lovely of weekends! Mine was mostly awesome and partially not.

The awesome: My parents came and stayed with us. Lots of yummy food, shopping and laughter.

The not: My car totally died along the side of the highway as we were going to do said activities. An hour wait alongside the highway, tow truck ride to the shop and hopping into my parents car later, we were back on the road and our fun day resumed.

Now, we wait in horror to see how much the repair will cost. Eeeiiik.
