Happy Friday!!  Summer wedding season is officially underway, and I wanted to share a few ideas on what to wear to a Summer wedding including this gorgeous black lace bodycon dress.  When picking the perfect dress, I consider time of the wedding, requested attire, and price.  I love this black lace dress for an evening wedding and cocktail attire.

When I saw this dress a few months ago, I was shocked that it was just over $100.  The quality of this dress feels like it should be much more.   As soon as this dress came back in stock in my size, I jumped on it.  This bodycon dress will also be great for fall weddings and holiday parties too.  It will definitely be my go to little black dress for any upcoming events.

I also found a few more dress ideas below trying to stay around the $100 range.  These dresses range from daytime to evening options.  I love the flowy, floral, bright colors for daytime, and the fitted and lace options for an evening wedding.  I also included a few fit and flare styles that would work for both day and evening.

The official start of summer may have only been last week, but ya’ll it feels like we are in the heart of it down here!!  Since it’s only June, I know this means I will be living in all the easy, breezy, and lightweight dresses.   This tropical print dress is so cute for summer! I love the white and teal print.  It’s a cotton dress so lightweight with some breathability for those really hot days.  You could also wear flat sandals with this dress too.

Happy Friday!!!  It’s been the busiest work week. I am so ready for this weekend.  Last week, a few blogger pals and I headed to the local roller skating rink for a fun girls’ night out.  It was so much fun. By the end of the night, we all had our skating moves down.

A local photographer joined us to snap some pics of our night out, #bloggerlife 🙂  Ya’ll, outfit photos in roller skates is no joke.  The photographer was super awesome at helping me not look like I was about to fall. ha!

We sort of themed the night out 70s style, and I went with a jewel toned bodysuit, skinny jeans, and my double hoop earrings.  Yes, I am officially in love with bodysuits.  This one has super drape front top.  I think it would be super cute with a long black lace bandeau underneath it. The drape will expose whatever you have on under it.   I ended up just pinning it because I didn’t have anything I really liked that would look cute showing.  If you want to check out the other girls’ outfits, I shared a group pic at the end of the post.

I hope you have a fabulous first weekend of summer!  Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Ladies!  Sometimes the simplest outfit filled with closet staples can turn into the chicest casual outfit.  All of these pieces live on major repeat in my closet, not just in summer but throughout the year.  A fan girl of the all black outfit for any season, I love pairing it with the brown wedges and crossbody bag to create a fun, casual summer outfit.

I’m someone who is always cold, so a denim jacket is a must for me in Summer.  I tend to get cold indoors when everyone is blasting the A/C.    It’s also a fun addition to add a little color to an all black look.  You can also tie the jacket around your waist to break up the two black pieces.  My denim jacket is from H&M, but the one I linked I own in white and love!

If you are looking for a good quality tank top for summer, I love these!!  I’ve posted this olive one on the blog before in this post.  I also own it in white, and I love that it is not see-through!  I own two in black because I wear them so much.  These tanks will be great in fall and spring to wear in a layered look under cardigans and jackets.

I hope your week is going well! Thanks for stopping by!
