Daily Threads: Blues



  

top: j crew {similar}, shorts: target {similar}, shoes: vera wang {similar}
necklace: my shop, clutch: handmade

During the warmer months I generally stick to shorts and a loose top - I think you'll notice that as we go through spring and summer. It's comfortable and it works for me - I love it. Hope you're ok with that. I'm also finding that these shoes are perfect for spring - so I hope you don't mind seeing these pretty often as well. 

Also, I mentioned in my last post that my brother was here! He, husband, and I went out yesterday evening to snap these photos. It's so much more fun getting out and taking pictures. And not having to tote around a tripod and remote (no offense to these two - I don't know what I would do without them when brother isn't around, but it's nice to have someone else snap the photos for a change!).

if i had those legs i think i'd sport those shorts everyday too :) Great look on you!

Virginie said...

I'd wear shorts all the time too if I had fantastic gams like yours! Real photographers are definitely better than tripods, your such a trooper for taking so many of your daily threads with it, ever since my friend Sophie started helping me with my pics I have been unwilling to take my tripod out (Sophie's just so much more fun!).

Love your day at the park outfit very very much too!

Have a great day Linley :)

I love shors and loose tops for breezy summer days! You look adorable! I agree, I love having someone take my pictures way more than using a dang tripod!

Katelyn said...

I tend to dress in breezy tops and shorts too - the south is hot this time of year! I love your necklace and your DIY clutch!

Nothing better for hot days than shorts and blouses, the lighter the better, if only I had amazing legs like yours! Love the heel on those sandals!

I love how you can make a simple outfit look so gorgeous and put together. Though I am not into shorts much, I do love loose flowing tops, and I predict I shall be wearing them a lot this summer.
