Most of my adolescence, I’ve been avoiding the Chicago sun. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll hang outside usually when the weather gets cooler, the sun isn’t too harsh, or if there’s quality shade. Only because I get the worst ashy brown tans in Chicago. However, this has been forcibly pushed aside by my almost two toddler who demands to be outside in 90 degree weather and likes to take his time standing in the beating sun. So now, it’s early August and if I’m going to be tan I might as well hit up the islands to get a nice golden tan. Who else is trying to vacation soon?
Top: I recently bought this white textured tank from Anthropologie. I love Anthropologie, but their sizing is definitely unreliable especially when they took away the petite section in stores. So I love the top, but it’s slightly loose on me and would’ve looked better if it fit better. The white top in general is amazing to have for all seasons. Summer of course I wore it alone to brighten up the high tea garden look. In the fall, this top will look so chic under cardigans and kimonos.
Bottoms: I love this blue khaki skirt from Aritzia. I truly love that store it’s heaven for petite girls and basic wear, but the pricing is unreasonable so I try not to shop there often. This skirt looks beautiful paired with any soft tones like peach, light red and to bring its brightest look out, pairing it with a white top. I love how it has an elastic band to create the scrunched look and has the cutest bow to go with it! So chic.
Jewelry: I was gifted these beautiful blue earrings with black and silver beading by Enayahs jewelry. This is the perfect aqua blue to wear with any blues or for an elegant pop of color. I’ve always had a thing for blue earrings, but I find this style easiest to wear since sometimes you don’t want your earrings to catch too much attention. These blue stone earrings are subtle and classy.
Shoes: I’m wearing the blue denim plexi heels by Gianvito Rossi. These heels are so cute and gorgeous. I love the blue aspect of it because I’m wearing so much blue these days! I have a similar pair by Christian Louboutin with a black pointed toe, but they’re too tight on me so I can seldomly wear those.
Purse: I’m rocking my limited edition blue suede Celine. Before I had to go around carrying a baby bag, Celine managed to carry everything for me. This purse is massive and highly durable. Whenever I’m not rocking a baby bag, I will try to bust out Celine.
