WIWW

Holy Cow! It's June!

It's unofficially summer around here now. We went from unusually chilly spring temps to excessive rain to suddenly 90's. Only a few days of actual "spring" weather took place.

Either way, I'm actually motivated to give a hoot about my appearance for now because my summer wardrobe is much more fun. It's so easy to slump into "I-don't-care-mode" when you know you're going wake up and put on a sweater or sweatshirt no matter what day it is. (Just wait, though. I'm sure this is temporary. I'll be back to not caring after a couple weeks of this heat.) Anyway, I've done a bit of shopping for myself recently (mostly Target with Casey and Old Navy online) after feeling like I "just need something new" and it's always fun to wear new clothes.

So I'm back for another edition of What I Wore. But first, I'm pleased to say I think we are finally good with sandals for Sophie this summer. She has much less black in her summer wardrobe this year, so no black sandals were necessary. But we still have plenty to work with. Yay!

Saturday {May 21st}

my insanely busy day with Will - farm, beach, theater, b-day party
tank & shorts - Kohl's (last summer)
sweater - Old Navy

The sweater is my new favorite clothing item! It's super lightweight and airy and goes with any color or style of fitted tank or tee underneath. It looks cute with jeans or shorts and off the shoulder or centered. Seems like the perfect top for movie date night with the hubs or maybe just thrown over a swim suit as a cover up. LOVE it!

If you recall from this picture of our beach trip, I wore these adorable jeweled sandals with the above outfit that day. They're from Old Navy also.

Sunday

cotton, tank dress - Old Navy

With it, I paired my favorite style of summer sandals from Old Navy. I have these in silver, black and chestnut brown. They're so cute and comfortable.

I've been doing some ab and leg workouts lately. After a diastasis with my pregnancies (seriously, you can feel the divide right down my abdomen), I'll be damned if I'm gonna' let my gut stick out farther than my non-existent boobs now. ;) It's just not fair... I used to have some boobs. Ah well, my kids are healthier for it, I guess. And that's why they make push-up bras, right?

For Craig's family picnic in the afternoon, I just threw on a tank top over top of my suit.
