I’m obsessed with these overalls. I paired them here with a bright fun summer colored tank but when I was in the Bahamas I realized how cute they would be as a cover-up! I wore it over a beach riot bikini and got stopped everywhere. It’s light enough to wear on the beach and super easy to pack. I almost ordered them for the site in black as well, what do you think?

This summer I think a denim vest and jacket are two must haves for your wardrobe. I’m kind of bored of just my plain denim pieces so when I was doing some shopping for the site this vest was a quick grab. I’d wear this with so many things aside from a simple dress like this sexy LNA slip. I actually wore it over a bikini when I was in the Bahamas! Is it too cheesy/much for Fourth of July? Whatever, I feel biker chic and I like it.

I know it’s really difficult to comprehend the idea of wearing referee attire in real life but I promise there is something chic about those refs and that would be black and white stripes. At first, the blazer seems a bit awkward, but paired correctly it can be your new love affair. Ever since meeting this blazer at the SHOPgrl HQ’s – we have been inseparable. I pair it with almost everything from skinny jeans to cut off shorts or even over a simple black mini dress. Something about the oversize chic stripeness makes me want to throw it over almost everything I own. It has a bit of a stretch in it which makes it easy to scrunch the sleeves up. I went a little over board with my black and white Guiseppe heels but they went too perfectly together that I just had to. Are you willing to take the ref risk? Get yours here!

I feel like while having this blog I’ve really noticed how much my style has changed in the last four years. A look as simple as shorts and a tank top like this can satisfy me more than a wild colorful eccentric outfit that I used to put together more often as long as it’s accessorized correctly. Adding a hat and shoes like the above allow my look to still be busy enough to the point where I’m fulfilled and ready to leave the house but at the same time easy to put together and laid back enough to wear every day. Wow, that was a mouthful. But it’s how I feel – I’m shocked how simple I’ve become when I was always about the stand out make a statement looks. A simple outfit I’ve realized can stand out even more if put together correctly – I have my sister to thank for that.

Nails have become one of the most important accessories to a girls outfit. I definitely want to branch out this summer and try some nail art. I’m also a huge fan of shorter nails, I feel like bold colors look so much better on shorter nails. How cool is the first picture with the outlining of the nails? I’m obsessed.
