THIS IS MY SUMMER UNIFORM

this little number is something i've been wearing literally. every. damn. day. this summer -- or at least as much as i possibly can without anyone noticing. the dress is from everlane and is so ideal for summer that i can't stop throwing it on. i even talked about this dress five minutes ago on the blog, that's how good it is. the shade of blue is perfect, as is the length, as is the neckline....you get what i'm saying. sadly the blue version is sold out, but i also love this cut in the yellow stripes.

one more thing? do yourself a favor, and purchase one of these amazing rope bags from apprvl (you'll thank me later).

FROM MY SHOPPING CART

i hope you had a great fourth! after the holiday i found myself with some extra downtime, so i obviously spent it window shopping on the internet (one of my guilty pleasures). Every time i fall down the shopping rabbit hole, i have a habit of filling multiple shopping carts before abandoning them. I do stick to one golden rule when i go through one of these browsing binges though: i need to wait a few days before actually buying anything from my cart(s), and if i am still thinking about that dress, those sandals, or those earrings etc. etc. then i'll totally cave. does anyone else do that? i swear it helps me minimize my impulsive purchases. so while i wait to see what sticks, i thought it would be fun to share what i have in my cart right now: a few things that are still on my mind and some that i've already bought. go on, take a look!

just bought this dress from everlane and i like it even more than i thought i would. an ideal length (not too long, but also not awkward), easy fabric, stripes. i would definitely recommend grabbing one for summer!

this bag from apprvl is another purchase i recently made, and (omg) it is the perfect summer bag. i am obsessed. it falls perfectly, and holds more stuff than you'd think. seriously considering adding another color to my life (it also comes in pink, navy, and tan!).
