Sunglasses for Every Face Shape: Men & Women

Sunglasses are such a key accessory to my summer wardrobe especially, but any hint of sun and I’m reaching for a pair. Since we’re smack dab in the middle of summer, and I’m even thinking about fall, it seemed appropriate to do a mini style session about this much overlooked accessory that is such a perfect transition piece to any season. As with all clothing and accessories, choosing a great frame to compliment you is important.

Men and women can both utilize these tips to keep stylish, but also protected, and put their best face forward. 

And, since this is the last week of Nordstrom’s sale, I’m including a style board of some of my favs!

Game of Thrones-Inspired Workout Hair

I’m all for function when it comes to working out, but a fan of ponytails? Not particularly. I will wear them, don’t get me wrong, but I’m really particular. Generally they’re just too plain for me, but I definitely like to get my hair up and out of my face, so I decided to take a regular functional pony tail and add a twist. I’ve recently become hooked on Game of Thrones {spent the first 3 seasons catching up and finished the most recent season with the hubs.} It’s no secret I LOVE braids, so here’s my Game of Thrones-inspired workout hair…

Printed Shorts for Unexpected Style

This is the last of the NYC summer trip outfit posts. I’m seriously behind on posting them, but since it’s still hot I wanted to share some of my go-to summer shorts styles.
I love everything about these shorts: the cool, flowy fabric, the gorgeous jewel tones, and the pattern. The great thing about the right type of shorts is their versatility… I wore them during the day paired with a flat sandal for a fun outing to American Girl, but they transitioned perfectly for an evening to dinner with a striking colored heel.
I received so many compliments on this outfit. I think the freshness of a perfect summer printed short is unexpected for evening wear that it gives you unique style.
Tune in Monday for some tips via video on dressing up your shorts.

seerSUCKER FOR SUMMER!

Hey lovelies! I’m back after a little family time away and I’m finally getting around to sharing some of my casual NYC looks. AND most everything seen here is currently on SALE!!! Lucky you!
Seersucker is such a great summer fabric, and it’s not just for children. In fact, I had no idea there’s an actual ‘seersucker day.’
I personally love this casual fabric and it’s easy going look for summer fun. The lightweight material and informal look of the pucker makes for perfect laid back summer style. It was a no-brainer for me for those hot days running around NYC with my toddler. So just call me a seerSUCKER FOR SUMMER! I polished the look off with a skinny leopard belt {because I’m also a sucker for stripes and leo!} and a flat sandal for all the walking.
