Zebra Print Summer Sweater
Yep you read that right, a summer sweater in the Texas heat! This zebra print summer sweater is lightweight and breathable, so it does work with warmer weather. As someone who is always cold, I love summer sweaters for indoor events. They will keep me a little warmer indoors where the a/c is blasting, but I can easily go sit outside and be comfortable.
The tan color of this print gives it such a chic and dressed up feel. It pairs perfectly with white shorts or jeans for a sophisticated and polished look. You can change out your shoes to work with different occasions like flat sandals for more casual or nude colored block heel sandals for a dressier look. This top will also transition well into fall by changing out the white jeans for dark wash flared jeans and heels or skinny jeans with booties.
Stay tuned next week, I have one more week of summer outfits for you before we start transitioning into fall. We will be talking all about shorts next week to get you through this final month of summer which is always the hottest here in Houston. After that, I will be sharing how I’m transitioning some of my summer pieces to fall and of course all things Nordstrom Anniversary Sale which starts next week for the top 2 Nordy Club tiers.

Boho Chic Outfit | Blue Floral Tank Top
Hello Ladies! So did ya’ll preview the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale over the weekend? I took a little peek and decided flared jeans are on my priority list this year! I picked up this affordable option last year and wear them so much! I decided to splurge on a pair this year. Dark wash flared jeans are great for a casual office environment, creating a dressed up casual look, and transforming flowy tops into a boho chic outfit.
The semi-cropped length, flowy style, and floral print of this top transform into boho chic when paired with flared jeans. I added in my espadrille wedges to complete the look. Want to make this top have more of a dressed up feel? A few weeks ago, I paired it with white shorts and flat sandals for a different look. You have to love that versatility.
I like that the dark blue of these jeans pulls out the darker shades of blue in the floral top as well as helps the white and orange really pop! This blue floral tank top is super flowy and lightweight which makes it perfect for the summer heat.

Dark Floral Off the Shoulder Top
Hello Hello! Today’s look really makes me want to go grab brunch with my gals because this is exactly what I would wear! My dark floral off the shoulder top pairs perfectly with white cotton shorts or white denim for summer and easily transitions into fall with black or dark wash jeans. I wore this top to our house closing with light wash denim, and the two complimented each other perfectly.
The off the shoulder area has a smocked detail which I think helps hold it in place. It does move a bit, but it stays down pretty well. The bottom is a banded waist which I think is perfect for pairing with shorts! It gives the look of a tucked in top without actually dealing with keeping it perfectly tucked in.
How was your weekend? I really started tackling the organization of my bathroom and closet and made some good progress. I made a Target run for some under the sink containers and ordered these bins to help create a dresser area in the master closet. My next big project will be to organize all my hanging clothes again. I like them in order of sleeve length and style like all my plaids together, solid tanks together, going out tops together, etc. Do you organize your hanging clothes or just toss them all in?

Red Floral Sleeveless Top
Happy Friday!! I’m officially turning in my apartment keys today and saying goodbye to my home for the past two and half years. I’m always a little sentimental when I say goodbye to a home. I think it brings up all the memories and fun times of the part of life that took place in that space. Along with that feeling is always a little bit of excitement too about all the awesome to come in my next home. I think of each home as one chapter. So even though I moved out 3 weeks ago, today I’m officially closing one chapter and starting another.
Well now let’s talk some summer fashion shall we! This red floral sleeveless top is so cute for Spring and Summer! I love how the red and white print pops against dark wash denim. This top has two lace detail lines which I think help break up this print and add a little shape. It’s super flowy which is great for summer heat! You could also pair this top with shorts either dark wash denim or white. If you live in a warmer fall area, this outfit with brown booties will be perfect in September and October!
Also for all my Nordstrom lovers out there, you may be thinking this is the time of year for the BIG Anniversary Sale. Well this year, the sale was pushed back to August. The other big change is that Early Access will open in stages based on your member level. The more you spend yearly at Nordstrom, the earlier you will get to shop the sale. I’m a little bummed about this because I will not be able to shop on day one. With that and shipping delays, my sale coverage will probably be more shop guides than normal.
Another change that I’m excited about is the addition of a preview week. Starting next Friday, EVERYONE will get to preview the sale online!!! Even though the one change is not my fave, I’m hoping both of these changes will prevent everything selling out so fast. Are you planning to shop the sale this year?? What items are on your wish list??
