My goal is always to inspire you, but also share ways to stretch your wardrobe. You’ve probably noticed that the majority of my style posts involve multiple styling options…but sometimes a girl just wants a simple outfit idea!
Especially in Summer, when the pace is slower, and style becomes a little simpler and more minimal. (At least in the Texas heat it does!) So my Summer of Style series was just that…a weekly outfit to (hopefully) inspire your Summer wardrobe! They were easy-to-recreate combinations, to cover all aspects of your life…work, weekend, date night, and lazy pool/beach days.
In case you missed any, or you want to Pin them for next year…here’s the Summer of Style at a glance (or see the full posts here).

The whole striped racerback dress look, so very much spells summer.
And the black sweater tank, graphic skirt, sandals & bag=so classic, timeless, pulled together.
Can you ever go wrong w/black? I think not.
Thanks for the reminder about all the Labor Day sales. Oh my, they were good! Big $aving$!
These pics make me want to board a plane and head on vacation!!
All perfect looks! You OWN summer.

I loved this series! You inspired my outfit selection AND I had been on the hunt for a white dress forever so I ordered the white one from Lucky and LOVE it! I will have to wear it as much as possible before the temps drop! Thank you!😘
I’m thrilled to hear that…that white dress is so darling! xo
I’d love to see more “five ways” posts. I love those. Also, transitioning from summer to fall because you know “winter is coming”.
Yes!!! I’ve actually got a 5 ways for transitioning to Fall coming up next week! xo
I loved this series. Any suggestions on outfit selection for a scientific conference?
Check out today’s post…it’s got a great dress that works for so many occasions! xo
While I enjoyed Summer of Style, I much prefer the posts with multiple styling options. Seeing a piece styled a couple/a few/or 5 ways gets the wheels in my head turning as to new ways to mix things up from my own wardrobe. That way it’s not as dependent on owning one particular item.
Thanks Cassie, they all look fantastic on you!
Thanks, Ronda…a new 5 Ways is coming up next week!! xoxo
You always have the cutest summer looks. Love them all. Also, loved the instastory where you all visited your mom’s new home. Loved her dress.
ooooh, her house is going to be so amazing!!
