Olive Pants

Olive PantsOlive PantsOlive PantsOlive Pants

Shirt: Urban Outfitters // Pants: J.Crew // Shoes: Kate Spade // Jewelry: Kendra Scott

The constant 100 degree temperatures in Dallas have made it almost impossible to wear jeans or even most pants. This makes dressing for work a little more difficult than usual, so I went on the hunt for pants that were cool enough for the heat. I found these olive pants at J.Crew on sale and they are super light weight and the cropped length is great for the heat. I am wearing a size zero and it fits perfectly in the waist and is loose through the legs. My favorite Urban Outfitters tee goes great theses pants and Kendra Scott cuffs from their fall collection. Shop my look below! xoxo

Fringe

Fringe has been showing up everywhere for fall and I am loving it. My fringe obsession really started after purchasing a white fringe jacket at Neiman Marcus and these booties at Nordstrom. Last week I visited y&i and the first thing I noticed when I walked in the door was a pair of suede fringe shorts. I normally would not go for the edgy shorts, but I knew they would go so well with my new booties from Nordstrom. I paired the shorts with an oversized white tank, black lace bralette, and gold jewelry. This look is perfect for the awkward transition weather from summer to fall and the suede shorts were extremely comfortable and easy to move in. Shop y&i online or in West Village (Dallas) for these shorts in more colors as well as other fringe looks! xoxo

Distressed Denim

Would you believe that this is the first pair of distressed denim jeans I have ever own? My parents have always made fun of the idea of buying jeans that are already torn up. When I saw these jeans at Gap I was a little hesitant to try them out but they were so affordable, I just had to give them a try. These jeans fit wonderfully and the holes near the knees actually make it easier to move in skinny cut jeans. The distressed denim look is obviously more casual and not appropriate for all situations, but is also surprisingly easy to dress up. For a day look I paired my distressed denim with a chambray top from cloth and stone, and thick heeled sandals from Vince. I have also transitioned the distressed denim into more of an evening look with a silk tank, platform heels, and a blazer when it gets cooler. Check out all the distressed denim jeans at gap.com! xoxo

Fourth of July

edited-2998edited-3015edited-3005Top: J.Crew // Jeans: Gap // Necklace: Kendra Scott // Earrings: Anthropologie // Shoes: Anthropologie // Sunglasses: Oscar de la Renta

Happy Fourth of July! I know I usually post Weekend Words of Wisdom on Saturdays, but I thought I would mix it up a little for the holiday. Every year my family spends the fourth of July at our lake house eating endless amount of barbecue and homemade ice cream. Luckily the temperatures are mild enough (at least for a July in Texas) to continue wearing my white jeans. Usually there is not much color in my closet, but I have been making an effort to buy colors other than black and white. This tank from J.Crew is on of my favorites, so naturally I bought it in every color, including black and white. Shop some of my favorite red, white and blue looks below and enjoy celebrating the fourth! xoxo

Black Halter

Dallas has had its fair share of spring showers recently, meaning much cooler temperatures than usual. This past weekend I was going to dinner with some friends and I think I tried on everything in my closet in attempt to dress for this cooler weather. I mentioned in my post last week, that I pretty much live in my white jeans, well not much has changed. I am still trying to get the most out of the short time I have to wear them and they have been great for cool nights. I paired my white jeans with a basic black knit halter and heels for a high contrast look.

For those who follow me on Instagram, you know that I have been obsessed with my turquoise Kendra Scott ring and bracelet. I added the ring and bracelet to my high contrast look for a small pop of color on my left hand. To keep things simple and avoid going over the top with the turquoise, I wore my favorite gold hoops and went without a necklace to show off the halter neckline. Hopefully the weather warms up soon so I can pull out my white shorts and move on from jeans! xoxo
