Straw Floppy Hat: Walmart | Amaryllis Tank: Talbots | Cut-off Denim Shorts: DIY
It's that time of the year again: summer camp time! However, I think I've developed a method to balancing two jobs and blogging. We'll see how well it works this summer :)
I call this my "Summer Staple Outfit" because every item is something I'd consider crucial for an effective and efficient summer wardrobe.
- Floppy Sun Hat - Essential! Keep those rays away from your face.
- Lightweight White Cardigan - Great for transitioning into cool summer nights.
- DIY cutoffs & bright colors - Because... why not? (hehehe)
- White Flats - Best season for these babies
What items are necessary for your summer wardrobe?

Until next time!

What I'm Wearing
Hexagonal Earrings: New York & Company | Spiked Necklace: H&M | Bracelets: Handmade & ALDO
Orange Empire Waist Dress: JCPenney (years ago) | White Button Down Blouse: Forever 21 | Brown Oxford Flats: Bass
White has simply become my neutral of choice. It's easy, fresh, and easily brightens up every outfit. The heat was semi-unbearable today so I threw on this lightweight shirt to keep me cool while keeping the sun off my back. It worked!
Take the challenge: Will you be bright? Let me know in the comments!


Until next time!

What I'm Wearing*
Earrings: The Limited | Necklace: Talbots | Bracelets: ALDO | Purse: my sister's closet
Pants: Talbots | Flats: DSW
*I wore this outfit during the end of June, but didn't get to post it until now, so it'll count for July :)
After I did my June outfit roundup, I realized that I wore black in all but ONE outfit (and that's not a norm for me)! I love color and print and I tend to avoid black on most days but it seems that it accompanied me and my outfits more than I would have liked.
Now, black can be really chic... I have nothing against it at all--I wear black everyday with this beautiful skin I'm in! But, it such a safe color... and who wants to play it safe?!
Soooo, for that reason, I am presenting this challenge (to myself, my friends, my fellow bloggers and anyone else who is up for it) :
BE BRIGHT!
When you find black being your neutral of choice, replace it with another to brighten up your look (beige, ivory, taupe, navy, gray, or white).
If you'd like to be a part of this challenge (just for this month) let me know in the comments. Over the next couple of days, I'll develop some buttons, a link up and I'll think up some prizes to make this more fun!

Until next time!
