When I last posted about jeans, I mentioned that ripped jeans might possibly be my favorite variety. Well it’s official- they absolutely are! I find myself choosing outfits that I immediately want to wear with my favorite cuffed and slouchy pair. Similarly, I have a thing for white shirts of every style. Combine the two and you have my go-to outfit as of late. Comfortable and casual, I like to elevate my look with feminine heels and a structured bag for a bit more polish. I’ve had these J.Crew jeans since college, but I just got myself a new pair of Rag & Bone’s that are similar. Stay tuned for those making an appearance soon!

They say home is where the heart is. And mine just so happens to be back in the beautiful state of Florida. Growing up surrounded by the river, beaches and greenery, I suppose I took the scenery for granted. But on my recent visit from New York – I stopped for a moment to smell the proverbial roses. The photos above were taken at the Club Continental, a gorgeous historic property where my family lives. The club itself is a destination for events and getaways – and from the photos, I’m sure you can see why!

 

For my trip home to Florida, I packed lots of white, breezy dresses and comfortable sandals. When I saw this maxi dress hanging in Anthropologie – I instantly fell in love. It was one of those situations where I didn’t have a place in mind to wear it, but I knew I had to have it, because it was so unique. The fabric is gorgeous with a subtle, lace embroidery that falls beautifully at ankle-skimming length. And of course, I love the sexy and dramatic neckline. I paired my new favorite summer dress with nude suede sandals from J. Crew. Let me just say, I’m obsessed with these, and they’re on sale! They’re both cute AND comfortable, and the grommets add a little bit of edge to any Summer outfit. I also love this colorful straw bag – perfect for trips to the market, or weekends at the beach!

If you live in New York, then I’m sure you’ve seen (or at least unknowingly passed) the variety of H&M ads all over the city. While I usually do admire them more than the average person (occupational hazard, I suppose) – I rarely feel the urge to buy the items I see. However, as soon as I saw a poster of this flame-colored H&M summer dress, I knew I had to have it. Off the shoulder? Yep! Tassels? Check! A bright and bold hue that’s my shade for the summer? Absolutely! With all of these things, plus a $19 price tag, I was sold. I paired my new dress with more tassels on my Aquazzura heels, and a matching Tom Ford lipstick, aptly called “Flame.” Brb…I feel like this look calls for a margarita!
