Favorite Summer Essentials

dress | sunglasses | cuff | necklace | iPhone case | silver sandals
rings | black sandals | crossbody bag | bracelet | backpack

I’m entering my early late twenties next week, so I rounded up a few thing that will hopefully help ease the pain — after all, there’s nothing a shiny new cuff can’t fix!  But in all honesty, I’m not the kind of person that dreads getting older because every year is better the next.  My style evolves, my interests shift and new adventures await.  I’ve been all about biking around the city lately, so backpacks and crossbody bags are at the top of my radar.  Comfortable sandals are a close second and I’m actually loving this modern twist on Birkenstocks.  As for everything else on the list?  It’s my party and I can shop if I want to!

Tribal Print Pom Pom Shorts

It’s Monday, so while it’s back to the grind in the office, I can guarantee you that my mind is wandering elsewhere.  Maybe reminiscing about my tropical vacation in May … maybe planning my upcoming week in Arizona next month … maybe I’m just wearing these tribal print pom pom shorts, because it’s the closest I can get to feeling like I’m off on a trip somewhere. Just maybe.

Necessary Clothing Neon Yellow Dress

It’s been a long time coming, but summer is finally here!  I celebrated the solstice in Chicago with a few good friends this past weekend, but I still have photos to share from my trip to St. Martin in May.

Yellow Summer Dress & Straw Hat

This season, I’m welcoming the sunshine with bright, easy dresses and beachy accessories.  I’m talking straw hats, beaded statement necklaces and a sea-creature inspired arm party.

Nautical Inspired Summer Accessories

I’m also kicking off season with the PopSugar Must Have Box — a monthly subscription of hand-selected items in beauty, fashion, fitness and food.  I got mine in the mail last week and it’s full of fabulous summer essentials.  Use code: JUNESELECT10 to save $10 on a 3-month subscription!
