Okay, so you probably noticed I received my second pair of sunglasses from Ditto a couple weeks ago. A quick refresher – I lost my favorite everyday pair of shades, so I’m renting sunglasses to try and find a new pair. As much as I would love to have $400 to spend on sunglasses, I know it’s over my budget. BUT I really wanted to try out this style to see if I would like it, and why not try out Prada, right?!?!
Overall, I really like these sunglasses. Some of the pros – They provide good sun blocking on both super sunny days and cloudy but still bright days. The Karen Walker pair didn’t really work well on cloudy days when you only need slight light blocking. The pink frames were really fun, and I think this particular shade works as a great everyday color. I don’t think I ever had an outfit that these didn’t work with. I received TONS of compliments on these sunglasses from both friends and just random people I would pass on the sidewalk. These sunglasses were comfortable not too heavy and stayed put on my face even with a little sweating. They also feel really durable too. The Cons – The price tag on these, but I have seen less expensive pairs. After a couple weeks, the over-sized cat-eye look did wear on me a bit. I was ready to trade these in.
I am officially placing these babies in the mail today to go back to Ditto. My next pair already arrived on Saturday. Both previous pairs were over-sized, so I decided to go smaller this time. I tried to find a pair that had the pros from each previous pair. Want a sneak peek of my next pair?? Check them out HERE.

It has been some cloudy, gloomy days around here lately. The good news is that my parent’s house still is water-free, although the back of their neighborhood does have a bit of water. My hometown is still flooding, but the rain is expected to end this weekend with a full week of sunshine ahead! YAY!! I can’t think of a better gray day to post such a fun and colorful outfit, perfect for summer!!
I LOVE mixing colors in my outfit. Some people like print mixing, but me I am a color mixer. I’m obsessed with this pink shade for summer. It’s a super bright pink, but not real neon in your face. It also works really well with other colors. Turquoise and yellow are two of my favorite colors to pair with pink. They also work really well together, so I decided to go with all three for this look. I like to pair bright colors with white because I think it really helps the colors pop.
I am such a fan of halter tops for summer! I love showing off a little shoulder. This one is lightweight too, so perfect to wear outside. It’s not too long, so you can also easily pair this with black shorts or white denim shorts. I also think this top would be so perfect with these shorts and some black wedges!
I am so ready for a fun summer party (hint hint friends), and this is going to be the perfect colorful summer party outfit to wear to an evening party or happy hour. I hope ya’ll have a really great weekend, and thanks so much for swinging by this week!
