What I Wore: Summer is Here!

Summer is all about lazy days full of sunshine, friends and cold drinks here in South Florida. Unfortunately, the weather hasn’t been very cooperative, but that doesn’t stop our spirit! Our friend organized a pool party at her dad’s place, which was the scene of many a debaucherous party in our early 20’s. We decided to try to recreate it and were surprised at how lame we are now (not really). Definitely not a rager, but a super fun night with very close friends, amazing food, rum, hookah & Cards Against Humanity. It’s the little things, folks.

And these shorts? They just scream summer. They are going to be the most soft and comfy article of clothing you slip on in the next few months, trust me. Hoping the next time I wear them, they will be paired with some sunshine!

What I Wore: Summer Fun Day

We started off Saturday with big plans: we were going to attend a local craft fair up north in Ft. Lauderdale and then spend some quality time with friends that we don’t get to see too often. Along the way, the craft fair idea got ditched and we ended up spending the entire day with our friends at Hillsboro Beach. It was really nice to just relax, hang out and talk with good friends. It kind of felt like we were on a mini day vaca. I wanted to wear my summer best, so I whipped up a colorful and fun outfit. I’m absolutely in love with this oversized tee from Lazy Oaf and wish I could wear it every day. There are so many ways to remix (check me out with my hip fashion blogger lingo), which makes it so versatile. I also had planned to pair it with a jean skirt, but decided to be a little ballsy and slapped on my tiniest pair of shorts. Surprisingly, I didn’t hate what I saw, so I may be using these shorts (my only pair – shocking, I know) more often this summer!

Lovable Friday!

1. The Kills

Don’t you love when you feel like you are re-discovering a band for the first time at every listen? That’s how I feel with The Kills. It’s almost like I forget how amazing they are on a quarterly basis and then magically remember. I have no idea why they are so underrated, but I could listen to them all day. You are probably familiar with front lady Alison Mosshart, from The Dead Weather, but there is just something even more special about her already gritty style while fronting The Kills. I love how the band fluctuates between sultry, fun and emotional almost seamlessly. Needless to say, I am beyond excited for their 4th studio album, Blood Pressures, which is slated for release in April! Hey Kills, if you are listening, please swing by South Florida while on tour!
