Hello loves, I hope you all had a great weekend. So before I dive into discussing my outfit, I wanted to share some news regarding my new posting schedule with you guys.
I know that at times my posting schedule can be really random and unpredictable, and that can be super annoying as a reader. Trust me, I know how it feels when my favorite bloggers don’t post on a regular basis and I head to their page expecting new content and then there is nothing. Over the past year, my work schedule and load has changed a lot, so to avoid neglecting the blog from time to time and feeling as if my posting is unreliable, I’ve decided (for now) to post consistently on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
The thought and goal behind this is, I want to be able to create “meatier” posts, which will be more text and photo heavy. So, Tuesday and Thursday will still be about fashion – remixes, how to style guides, shopping hauls, tips and tricks and outfit posts – and Wednesdays will be a post called The Weekly Edit, which will be a shopping roundup of my favorite things at my favorite online sites, and will rotate and change every week. I actually started it last week, which you can check out here!
Lastly, I plan on creating a newsletter to send out to those of you that would like a little reminder when new posts go up. This way, anytime I post, whether it’s a surprise bonus post Monday or Friday or just my regular posts on Tuesday through Thursday, you’ll get an email alert straight to your inbox.
So, I hope you guys are on board with everything, because I am really excited about it and can’t wait to really dial in and focus much more on these dedicated posts. Basically, I just want to be able to make my content better for you guys! Because, let’s be honest. This blog is all about you guys and would be nowhere without you!
Alright, now let’s get down to the outfit! Casey and I had a very packed, eventful past few days, where we hung out with good friends, enjoyed BBQing, brunching and some pool time. It was super hot this weekend too, so I tried to wear pieces that were light, flowy and effortless to style.
Outfit Breakdown:
Bag: I have gotten so much use out of this bag, which is by Proenza Schouler (I also LOVE this one). It doesn’t look particularly big, but man can it fit a lot of stuff! At any given time, there could be a SLR camera, a pair of flip flops, my wallet plus a small bottle of sunscreen in this bag and it all miraculously fits! This bag isn’t exactly cheap, but when it comes to functionality and this city, I will definitely invest.
Hat: I have been living in my Panama hat from J.Crew as I am sure you have noticed me wearing it a lot on social media. :) It’s just the perfect summer hat – lightweight, stylish and offers great sun coverage.
Dress: Parker sent me this dress a couple of years ago and it always gets a lot of use the minute the temperatures rise into the 80s and 90s. It doesn’t cling to me and actually sort of flutters around me if there is a slight breeze, making me feel like I am getting cooled off.
Shoes: Instead of flats or a more casual shoe, I opted to add a bit of an urban twist to this pretty little summery dress, by slipping on black leather mules. I bought these from Madewell not too long ago and have to say, they are super comfortable!
And there you have it! I hope you enjoyed this post, and thanks as always for your continuous support and love. It means the world to me! Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post, The Weekly Edit! xo
