Summer Dresses

Do you ever go through a style phase? Like, remember when you went through the Limited Too phase? I'll bet anyone over the age of 25 can relate to that one. Anyway, right now I'm in a serious Madewell phase. I've been a HUGE fan of Madewell skinny skinny jeans since I bought a pair in Charleston about a year and a half ago. Since then, I've discovered a newfound obsession with Madewell shoes, Madewell bags, and most recently, Madewell dresses.

 

 

This little shift dress is so easy and comfortable! I've been able to dress it up a bit with wedges and a colorful clutch, or wear it throughout the day with flats and a boater hat. I also love that it goes with my Mar Y Sol bag. 

I saw this little straw bag posted by one of my favorite bloggers (Style MBA) and I snagged one for myself before my friend Dalia's Florida wedding. I thought about leaving it in Charleston the last time I went down to my parent's so I could keep it as a beach bag, but I found I've been surprisingly using it up here in the Midwest! It's great for running errands and picking up a few things at Trader Joe's. Ok, so maybe it's not the most practical grocery shopping bag, but I can't handle the cuteness of pink flowers popping out of the top. Plus, much of what I do when it comes to style doesn't tend to be super practical...AND now that I think about it I never walk out of Trader Joe's with just a few things. Regardless, it's a cute bag for bopping around on a Saturday afternoon. 

This has been one of my favorite posts so far this season. I hope you take away from it a little summer inspiration! Bring on those warm temps!
