What I Wore in June

summer outfit ideas | casual fashion | Houston Fashion Blog Lady in Violet

Hello Hello!  Finally a new fashion post for y’all!  My outfits for June are a little limited.  I did venture out for a few fun family activities and new house errands, but I also spent lots of time in workout gear packing and unpacking.  With many of my clothes ending up in boxes about mid-month, my options were limited.  I still managed to pull out some bright and colorful summer pieces along with some super comfy at home wear.

Keep scrolling to check out my summer outfits for June.  As a quick reminder, you can always find them on Instagram and HERE on the blog when I post the original.

With many summer weddings being moved outdoors, I wanted to share an outdoor wedding outfit idea that would work for an evening wedding or daytime if you live somewhere cooler.  This long flowy floral maxi skirt is lightweight and breathable in the heat.  It also moves beautifully when you get a little breeze. It’s lined to about mid-calf which helps it not feel so heavy.  It comes in a bunch of colors and prints.  I chose a lighter print to work in the Texas heat.

To offset the lighter skirt, I paired it with my black high neck top.  This top is a knit, but it’s not super heavy and pretty high quality for the price.  The high neck ruffle detail gives a look of elegance and helps dress up the skirt.

For accessories, I pulled out my yellow statement earrings to help pull out the yellow in the skirt.  You could also use red, white or gold earrings. Wear your hair up in a top knot or low bun with a pair of stud earrings to help beat the heat even more.

No weddings on your calendar?  This chic outfit would also work for date night or dinner with a girlfriend or two.

What I Wore in May

Well, I changed out of my leggings a little more last month.  It felt good to get dressed, do my makeup and feel a little bit normal while still working from home.  I slowly made a few more small ventures out as Texas started opening up throughout May.  I made my way to Ulta and Starbucks among a few other stores.  I decided to be a little creative with a couple of my outfits and flex some of my fashion muscles for my errand running.

Summer ready with my white jeans and navy blouse.  For Spring and Summer, I’ve been loving navy tops with a print that pops.  Remember this post!  Summer season is all about white jeans and shorts, and I think navy is good compliment.  The navy and white combo also helps create a dressier look when combined.

The navy, green and white combo on this top is so pretty.  The colors compliment each other perfectly and work really well with silver jewelry.  This navy and green embroidered top has loose and flowy fit perfect for being breathable on a hot summer day.  The length on this top is a little longer, so I think it pairs better with white jeans over shorts.   You could also pair with with gray jeans for a different look.

To keep the look a little dressier, I added in my nude-colored block heel sandals.   You can easily make this outfit more casual with an espadrille wedge or flat sandal.  If your weather is a little cooler, a denim jacket would work well over this top as long the two blues have a good contrast to them.

My weekend plans are not too exciting.  I decided to get rid of my storage unit, and I have until the end of June to move out of it.  I’m planning to start going through everything and begin the process this weekend.  I’ve had the unit for a couple years, and many of the things in there I don’t need or use.  I just wasn’t ready to donate or toss them at the time, so I hid them away in a storage unit.  I’m planning to go through every item and box in there and only bring back what I need, will use, and have space for.  What are your weekend plans? Hopefully more fun than mine!
