PEPLUMS AND PEARLS...







Hello all! I hope your summer has been treating you right. Can you even believe it's August already? 

Today's outfit is full of flirty summer vibes. I'm currently in Texas so I've been able to go shop at some different stores than what I'm used to!

I found this peplum for a fairly reasonable price at Papaya. I'm slightly obsessed because it does remind me of something you might find in Barbie's closet. It's definitely putting me in a state of nostalgia. College coming up in just a few weeks makes me somewhat wish I was four years old again playing with my Barbies; but obviously that can't happen so dressing in a top she might wear will just have to do. 

I love the low cut 'V' in the back and the florals and bright colors give it that extra girly touch.

These adorable black shorts are from Forever 21. It's hard to tell from the photo but they have a cuff on the bottom so you're able to avoid the spandex look. 

I decided to take a risk with the pearl chain necklace. In most cases when both the necklace and the shirt are busy they clash. Something about this outfit though made it unconventionally work. 

Top: Papaya ($12.00)
Shorts: Forever 21 ($9.80)
Necklace: Target (Previously Owned)
Sandals: Target ($19.99)

Much love,
