White Blazer + Bermuda Shorts

 

     Ꮗhite is the best color choice for summer because it helps to beat the summer heat especially in fabrics like cotton and linen and this is why I love to wear this white cotton blazer in the summer time. I paired it with a heavily distressed pair of denim Bermuda shorts that is actually a DIY piece from this denim pant worn here. I accessorized the look with pink statement earrings and my favorite summer mules and bag; all designer inspired pieces. If you are not opposed to buying affordable designer inspired pieces and you want to check out the retailers, click on the images below. I hope you are enjoying the summer the best that you can. Thanks so much for reading.

The new must-have Accessory

       ϻasks are the number one accessory we just can't leave home without these days because their importance in limiting the spread of the Covid-19 virus cannot be overemphasized according to the CDC. Lately, I found use for my old scarfs by converting them into face masks like I did in these pictures. There has been so many videos made on how to convert a scarf or piece of cotton fabric into face mask without sewing and if you have not yet seen any of the videos, just do a Google or YouTube search. In this outfit, I'm wearing a chambray (light denim) dress shirt over a pair of denim shorts and a pair of slides which has somewhat become a summer uniform for me. Whenever I'm not in a cotton top and denim, I'm usually in a cotton or linen dress. For me, comfort is key this summer and since we are not going anywhere anyways, I put comfort over style. I completed the look with the hobo straw bag and I love the simple, natural look it gives to the whole outfit. This outfit can be worn to the grocery store on a hot summer day and is even great for just lounging around in the house or sitting on the porch. I hope you have found multiple use for your scarfs also this summer. Stay safe and sanitized and thanks so much for reading.

Throwback to Summer: White button Shirt + Blue Denim Shorts

I love Thursdays especially when I get to throw back to beautiful summer weather. This is an outfit I wore during the summer; a typical summer outfit; a white button down shirt, blue denim shorts and a pair of mules which in this case is satin bow mules previously blogged about here. I love the cobalt blue color of the mules because it elevates the outfit by infusing a rich pop of color. This outfit is also styled based on the outfit inspiration mood board I blogged about here. I also love the translucent bag I was wearing with this outfit and it is a bag I am planning on taking with me everywhere this winter because it is made of PVC material and water friendly. I'm not going to be bothered when carrying this bag around on wet snowy days. And speaking of the weather, it is starting to get very cold here in Minnesota. After four days of constant rain, we woke up to very cold temperatures this morning and carpet of leaves on the yards and streets because the wind shook the dead leaves of the trees; so much clean up for us to do this weekend. How is the weather wherever you are? Summer was fun and I pray that this fall and the upcoming winter would even be more fun. Thanks so much for stopping by here.
