Battling June Gloom

I never realized that “June Gloom” was a thing until recently. We’ve been having a few showers here and there, but the mother of all summer storms rolled through NYC yesterday. When I say it went from sunshine to raining sideways in a hot second, I’m not exaggerating. It also happened to be the same day that 1) didn’t bother to check the weather in the morning and 2) forgot my wallet, leaving me with no choice but to bike home from work … in a pretty floral dress … drenched. Needless to say, yesterday was filled with a few poor life choices.

Back to the point at hand: I’m over this rainy day situation as much as I was over snow days last winter. I signed up for sunshine and clear skies and stacked my closet accordingly. I recently got this open-back sundress, this floral maxi print (and matching romper!) and this striped linen dress. Needless to say, the weather needs to start cooperating ASAP.

Navy as a Neutral

June 15, 2015

It’s Monday again and I’m dreaming about two things: a double shot of espresso and this navy dress that I recently got from Nordstrom (it’s almost sold out, but this is another great option). I wore it with a floral skirt when James and I went to the courthouse right before our wedding, but I’ll save that outfit for another day. Right now, I’m loving navy as the perfect summer neutral — from this botanical print cami to this flared skirt, you really can’t go wrong … even if you get dressed before having your first cup of coffee.

Happy Monday my friends! I can’t believe it’s been a little over a week since our wedding. The upside: I finally feel semi-caught up on life and sleep. The downside: I probably can’t play the, “I just got back from my wedding, can you cut me some slack?” card at work anymore.

Shop Floral Midi Skirts:

We decided to save our honeymoon until September so we could take some time to decompress, enjoy summer and still have something to look forward before fall hits. Until then, it’s little adventures around NYC and hopefully up and down the East Coast.

I’m also taking some time to clean out the closet and refresh the wardrobe for summer. I recently scored this blue floral print midi skirt from one of my favorite online boutiques. If you love a good midi skirt, this is the site for you. My closet is filled with fuschia, neon green and floral pieces from them (to name a few), and I have my eyes on this flamingo print next. I’m such a sucker for a cute skirt … but hey, it comes with the blog name.
