Summer Style.

The temps here in Texas have been rising (95 degrees anyone?) and I think it's safe to say summer is here. While I'm enjoying the warmth right now I know things are about to get out of control with 110+ degrees soon...which means trying to find outfits with as little clothing as possible...

Here are some clothes and accessories that would be perfect for this summer-

1. A big floppy hat to keep the sun off my face. Although I try these on almost every trip to Target in the summers and never end up leaving with one because I'm not sure I can pull it off...maybe this year.

2. This adorable sundress. I loooove the cutout on the back, plus it looks nice and light for summer.

3. I adore wedges for summer and this one would be the perfect everyday wedge.

4. Have I mentioned I love wedges? I can't get over how cute this one is with the pop of color on the heels!

5. I love these key necklaces, and while they are cute any time of year I like how this one has the light colored jewels in it to give it a more summery look.

6. This top would be perfect for a scorching summer day- between the spaghetti straps, the pretty flowers, and the fact that it's flowy (because who likes tight clothes when it's over 100 degrees)...it would be perfect to brave the heat in.

7. Do I even need to explain why this maxi skirt is on my list? It's cute, comfy, flowy...perfect for any summer day.

8. Ok, so I don't have an iPad yet, but for those who do a lot of traveling like Dave and I do this bag would be awesome. Nice and roomy on the inside to hold all the crap things you need to get you through a long day of traveling, but with a built in spot for your iPad on the side so you don't even have to take it out to mess with it.

9. I just think these bracelets are fun and great summer colors...not to mention they're made by displaced women in Uganda and buying from this online shop helps them get on their feet. You get cute jewelry and they get to buy food for their family. Win-win.

What do you have your eye on for summer?

To whom it may concern...

Dear mason jars,
Thanks for making my morning tea that much more enjoyable. Also thank you for being perfect for holding so many other things around the house- homemade peanut butter, loose tea packets, salsa, q tips...I could go on and on.

Dear Dave,
I'm sorry classes are extra stressful between the final papers and the finals you have for all of your classes, but I am so proud of you for working so hard in everything you do.

Dear iPhone,
Thanks for acknowledging my last letter and working through your issues. I'm so happy we don't have to be in a fight anymore.

Dear laundry,
I swear I just washed and folded you! What's the deal? I know you're feeling neglected, but this is getting pretty old.

Dear Clif builders bars,
I'm so glad the nice lady at Target let me try a free sample of you and gave me a free bar to take home so that we could find each other. You provide me with lots of protein with every yummy bite and I just know we'll be friends forever.

Dear Texas heat,
Pretty please spare the wildflowers on your path of hot destruction? I think the ridiculous summer temps will be a little more bearable if you leave me these beauties.

Love, Mal
