Blue & Green

Colorblock Darren Dress

 

I love combining blue and white with green in my home. Blue and white Chinese porcelain looks wonderful paired with green.

4th of July Sale

Embroidered Charlotta Linen Dress in Denim Blue

 

The long 4th of July weekend starts today and I am so looking forward to it after a very long week. Tonight I am hosting an American wine tasting and food pairing. I am first going to squeee in a little armchair shopping at one of my favotite stores J.McLaughlin who has an extra 30% off sale items.

Easy Polished Summer Dressing

Cedar Green Crepe Jersey Smocked Aurelia Dress

 

Happy July! One of the easiest ways to look great in the heat of the summer or for travel is a dress in jersey fabric. This is a perfect example. I have a very similar Norma Kamali dress I have worn to death that I have my eye on this to replace.

Checks

Midnight Check Royal Shirt Dress

 

Checks are such a classic. This dress is a great summer staple that can easily be dressed up or down and go to lunch in sneakers or dinner with pearls and heels. I love the band collar, relaxed silhouette, and pockets.

Blue & White

Azure Embroidered Cotton Rhea Dress

I'm wearing this dress to the Fourth of July party I am hosting. I think the embroidered hem is gorgeous. And it's cotton and fully lined. Really just a perfect suumer dress and great for travel.

Blue & White Summer Dressing

Ultramarine Medallion James Dress

 

I love dressing in blue and white for summer. This dress is a lovely choice. A midi length and a relaxed silhouette for easy summer dressing. 

Meet your new favorite midi — the Ultramarine Medallion James Dress. The stunning blue and white medallion pattern paired with half-length wide sleeves and a relaxed silhouette makes this dress an instant resort wardrobe must-have. Dress it up with heeled sandals and gold hoops or keep it casual with flat sandals and a sun hat! It is cotton and linen and fully lined in 100% cotton.

Summer Picks

Como Woven Striped Straw Tote

J.Crew has launched a great summer sale with 40% off and 50% off dresses. Here are some of my picks with lots of my favorite navy, linen, and stripes. A wonderful way to kickstart your summer wardrobe.

Timeless White

Ivory Linen Shell Hardware Mini Caftan

Since moving to Florida, I have fallen in love with white. White here feels so fresh and clean and is a great foil to tropical colors. I now have a white stucco Spanish Colonial house, a white car, off white walls in my home, and a growing appreciation for white in my wardrobe.

Red, White & Blue Summer Dressing

Maxine Sailor Stripe Linen Dress in Navy and White

Since this is Memorial Day weekend, let's look at some great summer pieces in red, white, and blue. These are classics for summer dressing.

My gardeners are coming over at 7:30 this morning so we can tackle the garden projects before it gets too horribly hot out. But I wanted to share this darling collection that just launched, a collaboration between Dondolo and Pencil & Paper's Gen Store.
