Striped Romper & Tory Burch Tote

My summer uniforms consist of oversized totes, cross body bags, cutoff shorts, kimonos, comfy sandals and easy throw-on rompers and dresses! Today, I’m sharing one of those looks which includes my striped romper and metallic sandals from Herringstone’s paired with my Tory Burch Perry Tote from Emma’s Shoes & Accessories.

Hey everyone, so this might be a little TMI and I really hope I’m not the only one, but sometimes I’m getting ready to run out the door only to realize that I didn’t shave under my arms and I’m like “crap what I do!” I usually ended up having to throw on some type of jacket, but we all know that down here in the south jackets are a no-go after May so I always like to make sure I have a few lightweight dresses with sleeves for those kind of days! I’d much rather change into a different dress really fast rather pass out from heat stroke in my jacket! The Yumi Kim Stefee Dress is precious and if you follow me on Instagram then you know I wore it to Mother’s Day dinner and while on a weekend getaway to the beach!

Breezy Summer Dresses

You know that feeling you get when it’s so hot outside in the summer that even just the thought of putting clothes on your body makes you want to crawl out of your skin. I would much rather hang out in a swimsuit and cover up all day. Unfortunately, that’s not always an option, which is why I like to fully stock my summer wardrobe with plenty of lightweight dresses and rompers. Easy summer dresses and rompers are key to surviving the Louisiana heat and humidity. I just added this flowy wrap dress by Yumi Kim below to my breezy summer dress collection.

Good Morning readers, it’s crazy how fast this week has gone by since Monday was a holiday. I’m not complaining though! Just one more day until the weekend!

About this dress: I don’t think I’ve actually ever owned a wrap dress before, but I’ve always admired their feminine and classic silhouettes. However, I didn’t originally choose this dress because it was a wrap dress. I picked it out because I loved the vibrant Caribbean Paradise print, which is exactly why I also bought it in this romper too–> Mckenzie Romper. It’s so fun and tropical looking! I know I have issues! I just can’t get enough printed summer dresses and rompers.

Neutral Swimwear

As much as I love wearing fun vibrant colors during the summer, I still always like to invest in some neutral swimwear like this Nanette Bralette and Flynn Coverup by L Space.  Sometimes it’s nice to just let your golden tan be the focus of your look after you’ve had a few days in the sun.

Hi everyone, today I’m sharing more swimwear inspiration for your Memorial Day Weekend. I love with this L Space Flynn Coverup because not only does it have fringe, but it also doubles as a kimono, which I like to wear with dresses, rompers and denim cutoffs! And uhh… do I even need to mention the round printed towel by The Beach People??? Because I’m pretty sure that its amazingness speaks for itself! Am I right? I know it’s a tad pricier than your average beach towel, but I mean this is no average beach towel as I’m sure you can tell after seeing these photos. Obviously it’s perfect for the pool and beach, but it’s also great to use as a picnic blanket for outside barbecues or a day at the park.
