Mint Condition




Shirt: Forever 21 | Skirt: c/o Flourish Boutique | Shoes: (similar here) | Necklace: Forever 21 | Earrings: Forever 21

This heat is truly unbarable. When I was sixteen and a size 0, I didn't have to worry about wearing something that covered me tastefully. But as I mature, I'm no longer interested in wearing the shortest of shorts and the tightest of tank tops. So how do I stay cool?
This skirt from Flourish Boutique is perfect. It's lightweight and breathable, but also keeps me covered. Paired with a lightweight, almost see through (also breathable) top, it makes the perfect hot summer outfit.

Tahari Love






Shirt: H&M (in store) | Shorts: H&M | Shoes: Tahari c/o DSW | Purse: Nixon | Necklace: H&M (old) |  | Sunnies: Forev er 21 (similar here)

Last week I met with an old friend for a photo shoot. I have known Will since we were tiny. Our older sisters were elementary school friends, so that tells you how far back. So of course when I decided to start this blog I knew I'd be needing his photography skills. 
The roof of his Chicago apartment has amazing views (also the way up was terrifying.) Check out Will's web site here and like his Facebook page here. Much more Will Sullivan photos to come, and not just from this batch!

Belted Top: c/o Flourish Boutique (in store) | Jeans: Levi's (old) | Bracelet: Flourish Boutique (in store) | Boots: Loredo Western Boot c/o Delia's (or online here) | Sunglasses: Fashion Tomato (in store)

My inner country girl comes out whenever I wear these boots. There's something about a perfect pair of cowboy boots with the perfect denim. I feel so red, white, and blue wearing this!

Have a good weekend!

Pink Delight




Belted Dress: c/o Flourish Boutique | Shoes: Volcom (old, view new sandals here) | Necklace: c/o Flourish Boutique (in store) | Watch: c/o Flourish Boutique (in store)


I titled this "Pink Delight" because for the longest time I didn't think I could wear hot pink, that it wasn't "my color". But with the right combination of black, white, and gold, I was pleasantly surprised. I may be adding hot pink to my wardrobe soon...

Down by the Water





Belted Dress: c/o Flourish Boutique | Necklace: Ali Oesch for Flourish: Website here 


I kept it simple today with this nautical look. This dress is so comfortable and just overall amazing. I can't decide what my favorite part is: the small diagonal stripes on the sides, the oversized bow, the rope belt, or the fact that it's a maxi.... gotta love the maxis.
