What to Wear to a Country Concert
What to Wear to a Country Concert
I found this Dolly Parton graphic tee a few months ago when the Houston Rodeo was going on. I knew it would be perfect to create a western inspired rodeo outfit. We didn’t end up making a trip to the rodeo this year, so I’m going to have to save it for next year. If you are heading to a festival or concert this summer, a graphic band tee paired with distressed denim shorts would be the perfect outfit for what to wear to a country concert. You could add a few more western touches like cowboy boots or a cowboy hat. I kept it simple with these tan booties that have a little western flair.
No concerts coming up? This outfit still works for a fun casual weekend to hang out with friends or head to a county or state fair. You could even dress it up with a pair of white jeans and denim jacket for a brunch ready look.
Sizing notes: I think this top runs small. I’m wearing the Women’s medium and it’s a little more fitted than I was wanting. I was hoping for a bit of a looser t-shirt fit compared to a more fitted shirt. For these shorts, they run tts. My pair is from last summer. I linked the same style, but it looks like this exact color/distressing patter isn’t currently available.

4th of July Outfit Idea | Blue & White
4th of July Outfit Idea | Blue & White
We are just a few weeks away from the big 4th of July weekend. I wanted to share a quick and easy 4th of July outfit idea including items that you may already have in our closet. A blue denim shirt and white shorts is a classic summer outfit combo and two closet staples. The blue and white gives you the perfect patriotic color combo. You could also add in a little red in your jewelry, shoes, or with a headband.
My denim ruffle buttondown shirt has a loose breathable fit and a cute ruffle shoulder detail. The shorter length of this top pairs perfectly with a pair of shorts. I’m wearing this top in an XS Petite. You could do the regular length to add in a little bit of length. I went with an XS since this is a boxy fit. My wedge sandals are a true to size fit.

Blue Ruffle Maxi Dress
Blue Ruffle Maxi Dress
If you are looking for a fabulous maxi dress to toss on all summer long, I have you covered with this blue ruffle maxi dress. It has such an amazing fit, moves beautifully, and is a gorgeous shade of blue. The ruffle details on the dress and sleeves add a bit of a feminine touch and enhance the movement of this dress. The length works perfect on my petite height. I can even wear it with flat sandals for a more casual look. I wore this last month to a gal pal’s birthday lunch, and it helped me create the perfect dressy casual outfit with my heeled sandals.
I’m wearing this dress in an XS and found the fit true to size. It does have to go on over your head, no zipper. If you are bigger in the bust area, you may consider sizing up. I wear a half size up in these sandals.

Chic Knit Turtleneck Tank for Summer
Chic Knit Turtleneck Tank for Summer
Last week, we enjoyed a fabulous weekend vacation in Florida. It was a fun and relaxing trip filled with many beach days and time with friends. We were welcomed back to Houston with 100 degree temps, and Steve and I decided to move our photo shoots indoors this summer. I feel like it’s going to be a hot one this year, and we will probably be spending lots of time at the pool to keep cool.
A knit top might seem a bit of an odd choice for a hot summer but this chic knit turtleneck tank is really breathable. It’s a loose knit that I layered over a white cami. I love the ivory shade to mix with a variety of colors like white denim, colorful cotton shorts, and these medium blue frayed hem jeans. This knit top is perfect for the office too!
For all my petite gals looking for frayed hem jeans this season, this ankle length pair is perfect. They hit at the perfect length to pair with flats and heels on my 5’3 height.
Sizing Notes: After reading reviews, I sized up 2 on this top to a medium. I’m glad I did because that size fit perfectly. The jeans are a true to size fit, and sandals are a 1/2 size up.
