five favorite outfits for summer

it's not that hot and then it is

This is another outfit I wore to church first and then wore it again during the week because outfit repeating is common sense! I don’t *love* where this skirt falls on my waist, but I like the print so much I continue to wear it. I also think my calves look funny with Wallabees, but I like how they add an element of friction to the look. Early June is about the time of year where I question my decision to wear bring a jacket but almost never regret it.

The last day of school this year was on a Wednesday - my designated day for overalls and jumpsuits. I absolutely love the green sneakers with the tobacco brown overalls combined with the airy blouse. I only needed the jacket for the first three hours of the day, then it was hot enough to go without.

I started wearing Blundstones with jean shorts to go berry picking, and now I like to wear them even when I’m not clomping around in dirt. Generally, I prefer closed toe shoes with shorter shorts because I think it’s a nice balance, and the boots feel sort of edgy. I got the Pickles hat (collegiate wood bat baseball, heyo!) last summer. It takes a lot for me to buy merch these days, but I love this hat.

I finally have a go-to summer travel outfit! I bought these tapered linen pants from Old Navy last summer and I like them as alternative to joggers. The cropped tank is from Uniqlo and has a built-in bra, something I thought I would find uncomfortable but actually love. The length of this top is perfect for my height and torso. The chambray shirt is a petite small from Gap, my ideal button up size.

I found this vintage St. John top on Poshmark for $12, inspired by this round-up of knit tank tops. I’m on the record as not loving Fourth of July, but I do like theme dressing! I have found myself falling out of love with my Birkenstock sandals — they feel like boats on my feet lately. I’m pretty torn about what to replace them with because they are very convenient and comfortable. If you have any suggestions, my budget is $125 or less.
