We just got back from a long weekend in Napa Valley. It was our first weekend away since Crosby was born… crazy, right?! We went up for a friend’s wedding and made a long weekend out of it. We arrived Thursday morning and I changed out of my travel clothes into this cute white tassel romper.
I love an easy outfit like this and it was really perfect for our day. We started out with lunch and then went to a few wineries before we checked into our hotel and got ready for the first weekend wedding festivity. It was really hot and humid up there, but I was perfectly comfortable in this light-weight romper.
Now that it’s practically August it’s getting towards the end of summer. Although it will still be hot here until November, I know it’s not necessarily like that in other parts of the country. Sometimes dressing for the end of the season is hard. You really don’t want to buy anything new, but you’re sick of all your clothes. Or is that just me? Regardless, I still try to switch it up and do so by buying a few things late in the season. The trick is to find things that you can wear again next year.
Although this romper is a bit trendy with the tassels and cutouts, I know I’ll wear it again because it’s a good summer staple. I feel that way about a lot of rompers in my closet, as I reach for them year after year once it gets warm.
As I get older I realize how much I thrive on a schedule and I’m really looking forward to getting back on track this week. Hope you have a great one!
I’ve always loved a sleeveless sweater and think they can be some of the most practical tops in my closet. Even though they’re sleeveless they’re a bit thicker and are really easy to layer over. Perfect for chillier months and still fine in the summer with bare arms.
I took these pictures a couple of weeks ago during a little break from our July heatwave. It’s been SO hot this month! I know I can’t complain considering a lot of the country is experiencing triple digits, but it seems never ending. How’s the weather where you are? We’re heading to Napa tomorrow where it’s really warm during the day and cooler at night.
But back to the sleeveless sweater trend. I wanted to share more of them since they’re such a wardrobe staple and I think I need a couple more for the next few months.
Another day, another bikini. 🙂 We’re currently in the midst of a heatwave so it only seems apropiate to keep riding this wave. Over the past couple of seasons I’ve started getting into high-waisted bikinis. I got this one at an event a couple of months ago and tucked it away for our Palm Springs trip. The bright floral print is so fun, it’s from Show Me Your Mumu’s Barbie collection – which I couldn’t love more.
Another great thing about a high-waisted bikni is it sucks you in in all the right places. I especially love the belt on this one that you can adjust to however tight you’d like it. The top is really cute too with it’s off-the-shoulder ruffle. I even wore it with a pair of denim shorts as a crop top one night. I love anything that can be worn multiple ways.
You’re probably aware the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is starting tomorrow for card holders. If you’re active on Instagram you will be inundated with coverage for the next several weeks. It’s a great sale to stock up on basics or items that aren’t normally discounted. However, it’s really easy to get burnt out on because everyone seems to post about it non-stop.
I promise to keep my coverage moderate – and I’d like to mostly share items that can be worn now…. I don’t know about you but the last thing I’m thinking of when it’s 100 degrees are fall sweaters and boots.
I’ve partnered with some other bloggers to giveaway a $500 Nordstrom gift card to celebrate the launch of the sale. Scroll down to the bottom of this post for details on how to enter. 🙂

In my 20’s rompers were my summer go-to, but I haven’t worn them as much lately. I actually just cleaned out my closet and got rid of a bunch of old ones that were either too short, tight or worn. That’s how much I loved them!
So I don’t know if you’ve heard, (sarcasm, obvi) there’s a little sale currently going on at Nordstrom. I’ll admit, I’m always hesitant to over-hype these sales because I know 347573 other bloggers do and no one wants to be #basic. HOWEVER, after I complied my post on the sale the other day I knew I had to get to Nordstrom to check it out in person.
Hello August! I can’t believe how fast this summer year is flying by. Last month was so busy and fun I wanted to share some more highlights from my instagram. In case you missed it, you can see more highlights from my Miami roundup.
