Leaf Duty

You know how the palm frond print has been popular this summer? Don't get me wrong, I love a fun print, but for those of us who aren't in a tropical environment, sometimes it comes off a bit weird. So today I am offering an alternative that is just as natural but a little less pina colada. The leaf print.

Lucky Brand, Tossed Lead Maxi Dress, $55
A cool jersey material is perfect to round out your summer shopping bag.

Faux wrap makes quite a statement in a meeting. I love the short sleeve style so you can wear it well into fall with a cardigan.

A stunning print with an illusion neckline. You don't see a lot of those any more.

How much fun is this dress? The tiered hem, the scrunched halter, I love it with statement earrings and a denim jacket for fall.

While some of you may be enjoying breezy palm trees, not all of us have that luxury. I like the leaf print for something natural and fun.

Y Not Accessories

How about a simple but statement like necklace for these hot summer nights? Something long, sexy, eye catching, but not super bold. I'm thinking about the y necklace. Its similar to the lariat style necklace but you can play around with charms, metals, and flair. These necklaces go best with form fitting dresses or deep v tops. Think tall glass of water.

I love how this design mixes up the triangle pattern. One, one, two, three, one, two. It is unexpected and fun.

Sole Society, Natural Stone Y Necklace, $29
Look closely and you will see the 'y' part of this necklace is a shark tooth. I love it.

Silver, cool, and collected. This necklace even adds a touch of rocker with the charm.

Can you spot the initial? Right. It's quiet, understated, but personal.

The y necklace is easy to throw on and go. You don't even have to open a clasp to put it on. Wear it with a simple scoop neck white tee or cotton maxi to add just something extra to your outfit.

Wild Thing

I know it is technically still pedicure season, but my toes are looking a bit ragged. When this happens I look for summery shoes that keep my piggies covered. For this summer, I love the d'orsay flat because it's funky while keeping my feet cool. Today we're looking at some flashy leopard options.

J Crew Factory, Calf Hair d'Orsay Flats, $68
These shoes are great for work or play and the stitching on the toe is subtle.

I was so happy to find that these were not girls shoes. How cute are these?

Humble Chic, D'Orsay Flat, $44
So simple. I'm wearing these through the fall with skinny jeans.

So unexpected with a pencil skirt or suit. Easy and a bit sassy.

Step up your flat game with these d'orsay leopard options. A bit of pattern but wear them as a neutral. Have fun with patterns and colors.

Straight A Skirts

It's Monday lovebugs,
Let's not get too technical today. Let's keep it simple. A line simple. A line black and white monochrome. A closet staple and the every woman needs at least one of in her closet.

Saks of Fifth, Joie Lissome A Line Skirt, $69
70% off. Perforation detail to the max. Love this for end of summer.

High waisted scuba. So ladylike and classic.

Forever 21, Polka Dot A Line Skirt, $17
Polka dot pockets, party of one?

This skirt has so much movement it borders on musical. One of those 'must-twirl' skirts.

Nothing off the wall of edge today. Black, white, a line is all I need on this Monday.

Be fabulous today!
