Summer Style Inspiration

Well, hello.

Today has been a little bit of a disaster for me.

You know those days when nothing seems to go right? Like, absolutely nothing. I’m having one of those.

I woke up this morning feeling sort of out of it. I figured I was just tired. I’ve had a LOT on my plate these past few weeks, and it seemed to be taking its toll on me.

So, I told myself I would take it easy today. Write a simple blog post and give myself some time to relax. Nothing too strenuous. Just a super chill kind of day.

As you can probably guess, that didn’t end up happening.

As it says in the title, today’s post is summer fashion inspiration. Sounds simple, right? Wrong. NOT. SIMPLE. AT. ALL.

It turns out finding pieces you actually like and compiling them into graphics takes a lot longer than you would think. And, of course, given the unreliability of technology, something is bound to go wrong.

Creating this was an absolute menace. This actually isn’t even the original version. This is more like the fifth version. Ugh. Technology. Always a pain in my side.

But you’re not here to hear me complain. You’re here to read about summer fashion. Okay. Let’s talk.

I did some Internet window shopping today, and I came across a few pieces that I am just DYING to share. I don’t know about you, but I’m really hyped for summer fashion this year. Maybe it’s because the winter seemed to drag on forever. Who knows?

PALE PINK TOP – I love anything with a high neckline, and I feel like it’s hard to find pieces with high necks that you can wear in the summer. Enter: this top. The material looks really light and breathable. I could see myself tucking this into a pair of high-waisted black shorts and wearing it out to dinner.

YELLOW ROMPER – I tend to avoid yellow. It’s usually not my color. But when I saw this romper, I got really excited about it. I feel like it’s the perfect, softest shade of yellow. You can probably expect to find me making some pale yellow purchases this summer.

SQUARE STUD EARRINGS – Fact about me: in general, I’m not an earring person. I’ve had my ears pierced since I was, like, seven, but I’ve never been super into earrings. I played sports as a kid, and I always had to take them out, so maybe that has something to do with it. I don’t know.

ANYWAY, I saw these gorgeous Kate Spade earrings online today, and I thought to myself, “hey, maybe it’s time to give earrings another chance.” They’re on the pricey side, but I feel like they would be a good investment pair. And they’re Robbin’s egg blue. So, worst case scenario, they just end up being expensive flat lay props.

DENIM JACKET – Oversized denim jackets are kind of the best, right? They’re cute, comfortable, and they go with everything. Lately I’ve been fawning over this light-wash denim jacket. I feel like it’s the perfect piece to throw over a romper or a pair of shorts.

Okay enough for now. I’m off to go decompress. I’ve had enough technology for the day.

Thanks so much for reading.

What trends are you looking forward to this summer?
