Orange Shorts & Stripes

  

One of my favorite parts about the summer is getting to wear brightly colored shorts.  I love these light weight bermuda shorts from J.Crew.  They are so comfortable and perfect for a casual night outside with friends.

Fall Riding Boots

One of my favorite things about fall is getting to wear boots.  Skinny jeans tucked into boots.  Tights and skirts with boots.  Pretty much any outfit is better with a pair of boots.

LOFT

LOFT is having a major sale.  EEP!  Who doesn't love a great sale?  Mom and I stopped by yesterday and picked up a few things.  I got this adorable dress in orange for only $25... perfect for Gator gamedays in the Fall!  I also got a great white tunic and black blouse.  So... run, don't walk to your nearest LOFT or visit their website for some stellar summer deals!

trend: tunics.

One of my favorite summer trends this year is the tunic.  Tunic tops look great with straight leg jeans.  Tunic dresses are great for parties or as a swimsuit cover-up.  Tunics are so versatile and fun!

I love this Lilly Pulitzer tunic top.  I think it would look great with white jeans and gold wedges for a night out with friends or to see a summer movie.  I particularly love the coal color and teal embroidery on this tunic.

This navy and cream tunic is great for warm summer days and is a great shirt to take from day to night.

This J.Crew tunic is great as a casual summer dress or a swimsuit cover-up.  I would pair it with Jack Rogers sandals and a straw tote.  This is a perfect item to pack on vacation, since you can use it for two outfits.

Three-quarter length tunics are great to wear to a summer movie.  They add a little more warmth (for the freezing theater) while still being cool and summery!

madras.

I love madras season!  Wearing madras is one of my favorite parts of the summer.  I have a madras skirt and a madras sundress from J.Crew that I wear all the time, they are my favorite!  Vineyard Vines always has some great madras items.  Just Madras and Cape Madras are both brands that focus many of their items on the madras look.

Here are some of my favorite madras looks this season.

pop of color.

This past week I have really been feeling like bright colors everyday.  I think I am truly in the summer mood now that I have finished all my finals and have a week before summer classes start.  I am so happy to get a break, although I don't really feel like it's much of a break since I have to go back to school so soon...

I just love bright colored pants, capris and shorts.

I love these teal denim pants from Michael Kors.

Do you like colored pants?

Espadrilles

 First off, can you believe it's already May 1st????  I can't!  It feels like it was just winter break and now it's already summer... 

I'm very excited that I can now wear all my fun shorts and sundresses since it's been very warm here.  The warm weather also means it's time to break out my summer shoes.  I've already been wearing my white Jack Rogers sandals all the time!  I've also started wearing the blue and white striped espadrille flats I got on sale last summer from Zappos.com.  Espadrille flats are a great alternative to flats or sandals in the summer.  Plus, they are stylish and feel cool in the hot summer sun.

Espadrille wedges are a fun stylish way to slightly dress-up any sundress or denim pants.  I love how they go so well with a Lilly Pulitzer dress for a Sunday church service or dinner with friends, but also look great with jeans for a movie night with friends.  Espadrille wedges are a versatile item to have in your summer wardrobe and I think they are a necessity for any preppy twenty-something (or older) to own.
