Good morning! The heat wave continues, as does my husband’s long hours! I will be so happy to have my photographer back on Monday! ;-) I am really struggling with the self portraits, as is evident by the picture today. My kids wanted to “help,” which didn’t make things any easier, but they are cutie pies.
In general, I’m not a big fan of “stretchy” clothes, but I liked the print on this dress and it was a great price at the BCBG outlet (around $39) in either 2011 or 2012. I’m usually a Size Small in BCBG, but for the Max and Cleo, I was a Size Medium. When I wore this for the first time I was still on the fence about the fabric, but I received so many compliments, that I got over it. It’s a super easy dress to throw on in a hurry. I removed the skinny belt that came with the dress and replaced it with a belt from Banana Republic that I found years ago. It’s a 3-inch wide brown leather weave, with black trim. I think I spent $60 on it and I thought that was high, but I have been able to wear it for years, so I’m glad I spent the money on it! I paired my outfit with Hush Puppies Renown T-strap Wedges in Green and Blue that were on sale at Macy’s earlier this season (they can also be found on sale here for $61.99. This is my first pair of Hush Puppies; I kind of thought they were old lady shoes, but I love these! The colors were perfect for all of the green and blue clothes I bought this season and they are very comfortable. Finally, I accessorized with a gold plated Agate necklace by Leif and Agate earrings, from Etsy.
What’s your favorite “hot weather” outfit? Thanks for stopping by! And stay cool
