pretty things for summer

I have so many things to write about but I'm having a hard time categorizing into appropriate blog posts. I have been busy living life and it feels good. More on this later. I WILL eventually get around to posting more frequently again! But for now, I thought I'd keep it simple with some pictures and post a few pretty things I've been eye-balling recently.

Summer is definitely on my mind..

Cambridge tote from shopmamie. This is such a perfect summer bag. They don't have it up anymore because they don't know when they'll restock, but i'm awating.


I am viciously eying this vintage cotton sequin tank from Jcrew. I would never buy it at this price - I am rolling my eyes as I type- but I love how sequins are incorporated into a soft comfortable summer look. I would pair this with a high-waist skirt or worn denim.

Hello, Michael Kors iPhone wristlet. When i first saw this, I was all, ugh why, especially because of the price, but then I saw how the iPhone fits into the wallet and how there are places to put your cards, and how you can put it around your wrist (thus, wristlet), and then I was all, yes please. Totally unnecessary, but cute.


I love this BDG skirt with black stripes. UO was carrying it last summer and didn't have my size when I was trying it on. I've been looking for it ever since and its nowhere to be found! I can't even find a decent picture of it. I randomly came across this picture on this blog, and its the closest I can find. If anyone comes across this skirt, do let me know. It's a short (slightly above the knee) and fitted skirt with pockets!



My staple during the summer are comfortable dresses, and I am thinking I could wear dresses like this from billabong everyday. Can you tell I love stripes?


I am usually not terribly fond of pastel, but have great fondness for this billabong suit. I am digging the shape of the bottom, and the color combination so deliciously echos a summer from the 70's.

I love these necklaces by heartcharlie, I would wear it with everything!
