11 In STYLE

Outfit: Blogging All Day

Blogging All Day

Sometimes you just want to ignore the style rules of summer brights and put on your cozy black denim, even if it is June and 94 degrees outside. Can never go wrong with what feels right. Plus, the tassels — notice how I’m mixing black and brown? — and the summery espadrilles “summer-ize” the look.

By the way,  thank you all so much for your supportive comments from yesterday’s post; I was really anxious putting it out there and am so grateful for the response. I love this community.

Because the surgery has been something I’ve been considering all season I haven’t been purchasing many tops or dresses (which doesn’t make it easy to share a fresh look here each Wednesday). That said, I couldn’t resist this cute under $15 tee that I’ve worn with denim shorts and now with black denim. I’ve seen distressed tees (I guess that’s the term?!) for $80-$90, which I personally think is insane, but this, with a fun saying… yes, please. Blogging All Day

    You know I love this – we are t-shirt twins! And that bag is too fabulous for words! So happy to see you feeling better & getting up and around on Snapchat. Sending prayers for continued healing 🙂

      It is but did you see the Etsy bag I linked to? It’s really cute, and around $30. I also saw a real leather one on Etsy for about $120.

    So I need to ask you about that bag! I’m debating buying it, but is it worth the money? I’m going to LA this summer and want something fun so I’d love your feedback on it!

      I LOVE the bag and got it during the shopbop sale however I think it’s mostly sold out. Did you see I’m linking to one from Etsy for around $30-$40? So cute, and you get the same effect for way less. If I didn’t have this I’d definitely go that route. PS: I’m going to LA this summer (in August!).
