Picnic ready with this sunhat and dress! What can I say, a straw hat is so summery and I just wanna lay in the grass on a blanket under some trees. Or, maybe on a towel on the sand on the beach ala Ms. Lovett from Sweeney Todd in this striped dress. The stripes are pink but they are dark pink and almost red, and give me the Victorian bathing suit vibe. I know it's not exact, but it's enough to make me get that feel!

An outfit consisting of a pastel pink pearl encrusted headband, a beige square neck puffy sleeve with muted floral print, belted with a pastel pink belt and pastel pink suede pointed toe ankle strap heel.

There is just something about the pearl encrusted headbands that make me feel royal. Did a British royal wear one at some point?

The sheer floral dress is back and she's still a beaut. I actually wore it out to my first dinner in a restaurant in 16 months--we're fully vaccinated--and I got ketchup on it, but I'm happy to report it came out unscathed!

An outfit consisting of a white button up cotton long sleeve blouse with the sleeves rolled up to the elbow with a black vinyl tank layered over and tucked into high waisted blue skinny jeans and black strap heeled sandals.

I know I look good in jeans. I know I have the shape of someone who should wear jeans but I'm such a dress and skirt girl! I don't think I'll ever me a jeans jeans girl, but, I can definitely acknowledge I could be.

An outfit consisting of a pastel pink shirred three tiered off the shoulder blouse tucked into a coral pink pleated midi skirt and pastel pink heeled clogs.

It's June?? How! May went by so incredibly fast that it's almost impossible to think we're already in month 6 of 12!

Let's talk about pastel pink and coral because that's not a combo I would have put together. I thrifted this Halogen skirt for a whipping $8 in October and it originally retails for $80. Excuse me?? Coral is such a vibrant color and I love how it plays with this pink, and though coral isn't my fave color, it's going to be so good this summer with all of my pinks and yellows. Talk about a good find! This top is thrifted, too, and I got it from the same seller who sold me the yellow version of it and it's gorgeous.

Camel brown leather is growing on me. I'm still a cognac brown gal, but, camel brown is undeniably a great color for Spring!

An outfit consisting of a black wide brim floppy hat, a black polka dot wrap dress with contrasting white short flounce sleeve and white front ruffle, belted with a pastel pink belt and black pointed toe slingback flats.

The wrap dresses are back! Late Spring and summer just really lends itself to wrap dresses! Because it's hot, you want to wear as little as possible but you also want to still look put together and a wrap dress just kinda does that for you.

An outfit consisting of a brown panama hat, a blue and white gingham puffy short sleeve dress worn as a skirt with a pastel pink button down midi skirt, cognac brown belt and cognac brown d'orsay flats.

I clearly like puffy sleeves, and I'm pretty obviously attracted to cool sleeves on tops and dresses. You've seen this dress before and I layered a pink button down skirt over the blue gingham dress to really highlight the cute sleeves, belted it all together and added a hat and coordinated shoes for a cohesive look! I don't wear a lot of blue though it looks good on me, because I like the warm, rich colors, but I can make an exception for it in gingham.

It's late May already, who would have imagined May would go so fast! 2021 is definitely getting the message 2020 didn't: please end.

I found a skirt I thought I dreamed of. It's an A-line denim skirt and it only took months of near obsessive searching on Poshmark to find one that wasn't long. I don't mind long skirts, clearly, but long denim skirt reminds of me of the 90s and I'm not so in to the 90s trend. I'd be trendy, for sure, but I wouldn't like it. I don't know the brand of the skirt (sorry in advance!) since there is no tag in it, but it feels like a high amount of denim but not super rigid. The same seller also had this top, so clearly, I won.
