I have to admit that I have had this sheer, pleated hi-low top for almost a year and I never wore it. Although it has a ton of interest, it somehow never worked with the skinny jean outfits I planned. Finally it felt right with a simple miniskirt- the voluminous silhouette pairs back well to a little skin!

Preppy separates balanced with a hint of midriff? Sounds like a recipe for a great outfit or a Britney Spears video. I chose the former.

There’s so much to say about this outfit. I love the colors and the bold colorblocked stripe of the top, and even more so I love that both the top and pants were on major sale at J.Crew. The only thing I am not completely in love with are the fabrics for both. Although you can wash both this type of silk blend and linen in your home washing machine, ironing is crucial. I suggest buying some spray starch to make your life easier!
Top: J.Crew (on sale for $35 with the current 30% off sale!). Pants: J.Crew (on sale for $56). Necklace: Bauble Bar. Sunnies: Karen Walker. Jewelry: Souvenir from India and Forever21. Shoes: Chinese Laundry

Full-body polka dots definitely seem like a risk, but think of the romper as your no-flash version of a summer dress! And lately I’ve been pairing this neon belt with every outfit; I think it’s a nice way to accept the neon trend without blasting it from the rooftops.

Color blocking and bright florals are my summer outfit recipe for beating this heat while still looking chic. I love how pairing bright colors like hot pink with solid black and white really makes the colors pop!

Spruce up your wardrobe with some fun (and maybe a little funky) shorts. These are so lightweight, and the fun check pattern pairs well with both a a crisp, tailored blouse and a loose white tee. And I’m officially declaring these heels the STEAL OF THE SEASON since for $35 you can not only wear neon- the trend of the season, but you can also easily stop traffic and hail a cab in the dead of night with them.
Heels: H&M (recent!!) Shorts: ASOS $34. Blouse: Banana Republic. Belt: Gap (similar here). Bracelets: Forever21 and Stefanie Marie (Etsy shop now open!). Sunnies: Paul Smith.
