Let's Prep for the Season Change

I feel that it is always important to have some key transition pieces in your wardrobe so you can ease into the seasons effortlessly.

tee- LOFT, leopard print skirt- H&M, sandals- Vagabond

This past week I picked up some adorable items that I can wear ANY season. For instance this leopard print skirt is light enough for the summer heat, but will look great in cooler weather with a cozy sweater and boots. I cannot wait to wear it this fall!

Do you find it important to have clothing in your closet that you can wear any time of year? I personally love to do this…as I feel then I really can get the most out of my wardrobe. I have a tiny closet (that I share with my husband) so maximizing is key!

Refreshed in July

I hope you all are doing well. July has been refreshing to me: I’ve been taking a few days off of work this month to refresh and regroup. I added a few new pieces to my wardrobe to refresh my looks. And yesterday I finally was able to refresh my hair color (thank goodness)! I almost feel human again!!!

What do you guys think of jumpsuits? I personally think they are a great alternative to a dress. They keep you looking very put together and chic. I love to just throw something on without having to put much thought into it, and know it will look good.

I actually got this exact jumpsuit in another print as well. It is just too cute! Also, it’s extremely light weight and perfect for the summer heat.

Lastly, I just want to say I hope you all are staying safe during these crazy Coronavirus times. I know here in NYC numbers have been down…but I personally have still been staying quarantined in my apartment 95% of the time and staying away from people. Overly cautious? Maybe. But I’m not willing to chance anything. Hope you all are wearing your masks and staying healthy.

Summer Dots

Summer officially arrived yesterday…and I’m not going to lie, I’m already counting down the days until fall (autumn is my favorite season). I hate being hot, but one thing that is keeping me cool is this adorable linen polka dot skirt that I bought out of my friend Nicole’s (aka Darling in Dots) closet.

This summer is going to look a little different for me, and I’m sure many of you. With COVID-19 still infecting people every day, I personally still don’t feel very comfortable outside for long amounts of time. It’s so hot under my mask (I took it off for one minute to snap these photos) that I would just prefer to go sit in my air conditioned apartment.

I will be sad that this summer will have no BBQs, no rooftop parties, no concerts…it’s going to be boring. But if that means it will keep me healthy, I’m okay with that. I might be going overboard with keeping my social distance, but with all the health issues I have I just can’t afford to chance anything.

So until this virus is GONE i will continue to wear polka dots, go on morning walks before the crowds in my neighborhood grow and the summer sun gets too hot, and enjoy the extra time with my dog and my husband as we’ve all been quarantined together since March…and I really would not want it any other way.

How are you planning on enjoying your summer?
