Flat Out Adorable

To some people summer means flip flops, to others it means white dresses, and to some it's all about the espadrilles. Today we're looking at some fantastic flat espadrille options that are colorful and great for summer.

I mean hello? Abstract stripes in a killer combo. And under $50.

J Crew, Canvas Espadrilles, $50  now $29.99 with code HISUMMER
Yes, you read that correctly. J Crew shoes for $50. And in a highlighter poppy color. Gorgeous.

Leave it to Nicole Richey to take the espadrille to a whole new level. Studding, embroidery, metallic. Amazing.

Free People, Canyon Espadrille, $78
What if you just want a go to, neutral? These suede beauties will do just the trick.

I love a flat espadrille for summer because they're casual and comfortable and I can wear them knowing 9 out of my 10 toes have chipped polish.

Be fabulous today!

Wrapped Up

Skirts can be a snooze. You've got the pencil, the mini, the midi, the full, and well, that's about it for the standards. Let's add a new option into the mix. The wrap skirt. It has great draping, almost architectural and it comes in a slew of colors and price points.

A mix of nautical and mod. This great striped option also has a sassy exposed zipper in the back.

I think this is my favorite of the options today. It's just stunning. The red is deep and saturated and the wrap accentuates a long leg.

If you don't love this skirt, I think you hate fun. Look at this candy coated adorableness!

Forever 21, Woven Wrap Skirt, $17
Boom. Work appropriate, mint hue, under $20,  just so perfect.

Wrap skirts are a fun way to mix in a little shape to your wardrobe. Pick a color, pattern and price point that you feel comfortable with and have some fun with these options.

Be fabulous today!

The Anti-Cardigan

Summertime is a not a time for cardigans. It's just too warm. Put those away and pull out your new best friend. The kimono. It's light, it's colorful and it's the perfect accessory to your summer wardrobe.

For under $40 this is an easy one to try this season. Leave it open for a casual look or add on a skinny belt to define the waist.

This punch of color is so juicy. I love the notched lapel and open front design. So chic.

How about this instead of a gingham oxford on a warm summer day? It's fun, it's breezy and it's a great addition to any outfit.

Still not on board with this trend? Would you try it for $12? I bet you would. How cute is this short sleeve black option?

Try out the kimono trend this summer, find a color combination that makes you feel confident. If you still aren't sure hit Macys or Target and find one for under $20. It's worth the try.

 Be fabulous today!

Go Ahead, Cross Me

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I hope you had a great weekend. Here we are back to the start of the week and I don't know about you but Mondays are for juggling. The email inbox, the to do list, the meetings, everything comes at once. You need both hands. You know what you carry when you need both hands? A crossbody bag.

Kate Spade Saturday, Assembly Crossbody Bag, $95
I love this bag for all of it's quirky details. A medical bag-style handle, the snap closure pocket, and the wax canvas.

How sweet is this bag? The color just pops and I think it's perfect for running around on a Saturday.

Nordstrom, French Connection Hyde, $38
You really can't beat this price point. I love this luggage inspired bag.

Is this little bag expensive? Yes. Is it a classic brand with quality materials in an adorable print? Heck yes. 

A great crossbody is perfect for  a busy weekend day. Just toss in your essentials and walk out the door.

Lots of love,
Kels
