Summer Leftovers: Colorful Florals

Dress: gift; Shoes: Target; Belt: H&M

Hope everyone had a great weekend! Here is an outfit worn a few weeks ago that never made it onto the blog.  I've since put this dress aside for the season in favor of items that will transition into fall.  The crispness in the air this morning felt quite fall-like and I can definitely tell that my days of leaving the house without a sweater or jacket in-hand will soon end until next year.  I'm thinking a remix of a fall transitional clothing item from my closet is in order.

On another note, I've been craving some of my favorite fall treats already like pumpkin spiced lattes and apple crisps.  I think I've been craving sweets so strongly these days because I can't have them while doing the Whole30 program (I'm 6 days into the program). I hope to crave my favorite treats less as I progress through the rest of the program.

 

Here's to a positive and productive week!

Faux Peplum

Top: Swapped; Skirt: F21; Earrings: H&;M (old); Belt: H&M; Shoes: Zappos

Hope your week got off to a great start! 

I thought it would be fun to wear a vaguely patriotic outfit in honor of the Olympics.  I also decided to fake a peplum style top since I don't currently own one.  I love watching the Olympic coverage.  I have favorite sports I enjoy watching (track and field, swimming, tennis, gymnastics), but don't mind watching just about any competition covered.  I know it's sounds cliche, but I think that every athlete that makes it to the Olympics is a winner.  You don't just wake up one day and decide to be a world class athlete, it takes years of hard work, focus and vision.

Now if only there was a fashion styling Olympics, I'd definitely compete ; - )

Neon Green, Tomato Red and White

Shirt: H&M; Skirt: Old Navy (exactly); Belt: H&M; Jewelry: F21/Target

A white shirt brings down the drama of this neon maxi skirt which is a favorite that
I haven't worn since earlier this year.  I definitely plan on styling it a few more ways this season.

Happy Friday! Have a lovely weekend.
