Studded Jeans

Jeans: H&M / Top: Smart Set / Hast: F21 / Shoes: Winners / Bag: Vintage

I picked up this pair of jeans at the beginning of the summer and have been wearing them non-stop. They are just the right amount of fun and don't they remind you of your Bedazzler days...
Anyway, now that the first days of autumn have graced us, it's time I start incorporating the colour black back into my everyday rotation (I usually avoid black clothing in summer) so I'm taking these baby steps towards fall fashion. I'm just not ready to start with the big sweaters and the booties yet, I'm a big time summer girl. Throw five more heat waves at me, I can handle it!

Straw Accessories for Summer

It's recently come to my attention that I have a particular soft spot for straw accessories. I hadn't realized how many of these straw pieces I'd been hoarding until now. It all started when I decided to work my outfit around this dark green colored straw hat. Before I knew it, I was covered in straw! Straw sandals, straw cuff, straw handbag...you name it.

I think we can all appreciate the romantic and relaxed appeal of these straw accessories and I'm here to tell you they need not be restricted to your beach vacation. They can easily complement any summer outfit. I chose to pair them with this very basic, lightweight (read: see-through) cream-colored dress. The whole thing was very easy and effortless- my favorite combination!
