Hi Loves! I hope everyone is having a relatively smooth Monday, and a good start to your week! I'm having such a hard time believing that we're already close to the end of July - where has summer gone?? I've been doing everything I can to squeeze in as much time outside as possible, whether that means going for a long run/walk by the lake in the morning instead of a gym workout, eating dinner outside at night, or just taking a break midday and getting a little extra sunlight. What are you guys doing to make the most of the warm summer weather?!

On another note, this yellow floral number is the perfect summer date night dress. The flirty low back and ruffle hem add a playful element to the look, and I don't think it's possible to be in anything but a good mood in this cheery lemon yellow color. I've linked a few of my other favorite yellow dresses below that are all in stock right now! Happy shopping Loves! xoxo

"Accessories Are an Exclamation Point"

This is such a relatable quote from my favorite watch and handbag designer of the moment, Michael Kors. Great accessories can take an outfit from an 8 to a 12.5, whether it's a brightly colored statement necklace, a menswear-inspired watch or that perfect clutch for a night out. Oh, and shoes; don't forget great shoes! I personally wear the same watch and three rings every day. These are my staples, and I feel naked when I forget to put them on in the morning. From there, I play around with layering different necklaces together, and finding that perfect pair of shoes to complete my outfit. If you're in need of some new accessories to freshen up your look, a great place to start is Charming Charlie. The store is organized by color, which can either make for a very short trip if you know what you want, or a great time-waster when you're bored on a rainy Saturday afternoon. Take some inspiration from How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and go "frost yourself."
