Mint & Sparkle

Wearing: Slouchy tee (old Express, but similar here), Shorts - LOFT, Tote - Target, Sandals - Steve Madden, Watch - Michael Kors (similar)

I can't even begin to explain how hot it was here this weekend. Unfortunately, our A/C decided to give out on the hottest weekend of the year, while we are in the midst of a full blown heat wave. We tried our best to keep a positive attitude, get some relief at the pool and beach, and finally take full advantage of our Summertime essentials (including this pretty tote from Target). I really hope you all managed to stay cool!

White hot

Maybe it's because I'm getting married in less than three months, but one thing's for sure: This Summer, I'm obsessed with white. Dresses, skirts, blazers - even my nails are donning a pearly white shade.

Are you wearing white this Summer?

By the way, how sad is it that Google Reader is going away? I've used it to manage my favorite blogs since I first started my own blog in 2009. I do have a Bloglovin' account, so I'd really appreciate it if you continued to follow me over there :)

Sprinkles

Blouse - Zara (recent, check stores)

Skirt - Nordstrom (similar)

Pumps - J Crew (love these)

Bag - Juicy (old)

Bracelets - Stella & Dot and J Crew

Necklace - Sonya Renee

Upon spotting this gauzy blouse at the massive two-story Zara in San Diego, I couldn't help but smile and think of rainbow sprinkles on top of a cupcake. Silly reason to buy a blouse, but why not?! It looks great tucked into a skirt, but I will definitely be wearing it with denim as well.  One thing I'm lacking in my wardrobe these days are short sleeved blouses, and now that Summer is officially in full swing, I need more before I melt!

Glittering Nudes & Neon

 Wearing: Zara skirt, Express blouse, Nine West Pumps, J Crew Factory clutch, YSL ring, Sonya Renee initial necklace, Chanel earrings, Essie "Marshmellow" nail polish

There should be one piece in every girl's closet that makes her feel special, the shining star of her wardrobe. This gold sequin number from Zara is my one special piece. I put it on and instantly feel glamorous. If I could wear it every single day, I probably would. But since I can't parade around in it 365 days a year, I'll settle for special occasions (like an annual dinner that Nate and I do in Newport Beach).

What's your special piece?

Happy Monday! I hope you enjoyed the weekend.
