CAUTION! Let Shark Week Inspire Your Outfit!
Zara tank VERY cool and similar here, Crochet skirt here, CAUTION clutch last seen here, Gladiator Sandals Zara, Earrings/Sunglasses Forever21 SHARK WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rawr! Happy Shark Week! Having just finished the quintisential kick-start movie to Shark Week (Sharknado of course) I felt that not only was my JAWS shirt completely appropriate for this post, but my CAUTIONary clutch was as well. Sharks, as we know, aren’t to be messed with but they sure are wearable on clothing! You can read more about the Givenchy influence of this Zara tank here and honestly I wish more brands/fashion houses/retailers would embrace this ever growing trend of Shark-fandom. I was however THRILLED to see…

The Romper: No Outfit Required
Romper Forever21 similar here and here, Shoes Zara (old), Earrings ASOS, Bag Nordstrom romp·er ˈrämpər,ˈrôm-/ noun noun: romper suit; plural noun: romper suits; noun: romper; plural noun: rompers A young child’s one-piece outer garment. A person who romps. Hmmm… I think it’s safe to say, rompers aren’t just for the preschoolers anymore. Adults everywhere from walking the Red Carpet to going to the grocery store have embraced romper as the answer to the conundrum of “what to wear when you don’t want to think about what to wear.” So yes, with only 1 item being donned, we technically are wearing onesies, but no. they don’t have sewn on feet.

Turning the T-Shirt Into a Dress: Insert Slip Here
Sleeveless T-dress last seen here, Slip Dress Aritzia similar here, Bag & Boots Zara (old), Sunglasses Ray-Ban When I first tried on this cute locker-printed tank top/dress I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was actually dress length and very unusual looking, which I loved. The problem though was that it was also completely sheer in the back with both the white and blue colored block portions showing everything, and I mean EVERYTHING. Luckily I had one of smarter notions to date of attempting to layer the t-dress over a black lace-trimmed slip I have and voile! T-dress success! I am by no means the first person to slip…

Print on Print: Combining Two Statement Prints in One Outfit
Proenza Schouler T-shirt similar here, Assymetrical Skort Forever21, Heels Zara ON SALE, Earrings Vintage I have to confess this post/outfit may be a new favorite. Perhaps its because it uses one of my favorite yet difficult shirts that happens to be designer find, or maybe its the bold blue background that I am slightly in love with. The most likely guess is I do happen to love wearing prints yet I do not mix them enough and I think its because I, like all of you, worry about ending up looking like a hodge-podge piece of upholstery which is a fate worse than death. So let’s start slow with this…

Mint: Still the Hottest Color Around
Pants Zara Sale Here, Denim Shirt Here, Necklace Forever21, Backpack Aimee Kestenberg, Sunglasses Forever21, Shoes Zara (old) Mint, not just for your Julip anymore. Like the ice cream and our favorite breath freshener, mint has been around for over 2 years and doesn’t seem to be loosing any steam as one of the hottest colors around. Just recently jumping on the color bandwagon after living in an all black & white for several years I finally got around to adding some pieces in this lovely shade to my wardrobe courtesy of one of my favorite events, the Zara Summer Sale. I had my eye on these trousers since they appeared…
