Hey everyone! So, I’m actually starting to run out of summer outfits to show you! Thank goodness the changing season means it’s time for me to pull out of storage a whole new set of clothes! Here is a fun top though that I’ve been wanting to show you.
It’s got a nice bit of gauzy silk at the bottom for visual interest and it’s a nice, light tunic. I do have to wear a tank top underneath though because the pesky armholes are too big. I bought it over a year ago so I’m not able to find a link for it unfortunately.
This skirt you’ve seen before in different colors here and here. A real work-horse staple for my wardrobe! The shoes are something I wore a lot last summer but just kind of forgot about this summer. They are very comfortable for a heel though so I should be making more of an effort to put them in rotation. They look nice with pants so I’ll be able to wear them into the fall.
And, of course, my favorite purse as of late. It is recommended not to wear a small purse if you want to appear thinner (the whole scale thing) but I just got tired of carrying a big, hot purse these last two months and wanted something small and light. It’s been given the nickname of the cutie-patootie purse.
Our sleeveless days are coming to an end but this top still looks good under sweaters so I’ll be able to wear it into the fall. Plus, it goes without saying, the black and white goes with everything. I think it would lend itself nicely to pattern mixing too, something I would like to try. Now it’s got me thinking…perhaps it will make another appearance on this blog. Take care!

This top is so flattering! I love the stripes when they angle them that way. I have a dress with a similar striped pattern and I really love how it flatters my body! Really great look!
Thanks so much for linking up with me On the Edge of the Week! I hope to see you again next week. Have a marvelous weekend!

The pattern on that top is great! I agree, it would look nice pattern mixing and with layers. I wouldn’t have thought to wear a longer top with a skirt that shape, I really like the combination!
Thanks Kelsey!
I love the angling of the stripes, super flattering! The shoes are great and it’s cool that the straps sort of echo the stripes in the top. Perfect pattern to mix with a floral print!
