JULY FAVORITES

July has been a hot month literally and figuratively with some of these fashion picks I’ve been into lately! I feel like I’ve really rediscovered my style recently — I’m not sure if its due to going back to the office which has forced me to get creative with clothes during the week a bit more, or if I’m finally just feeling like everything is finally getting back to pre-pandemic times (fingers crossed) so I’m officially retiring most of my athleisure. Nonethless, here, I’m sharing some of my favorite purchases and picks from this past month that I just can’t get enough of.

fashion

Shop Cider Contrasting Trim Knotted Short Sleeve Blouse — Ok so I’ve been starting to see these contrasting ribbon tops everywhere and I’m very into them. They kind of feel very grunge and elegant at the same time with the combination of blacks and whites. I love the style of this one because it has a cute little cap sleeve, and can definitely be paired with jeans or a skirt and boots depending on the look I’m feeling. I also love that I’ll definitely be wearing this top into the fall — it would look super cute with a chunky sweater on top as well.

Amazon Fashion Zaful Underwire Bikini — I always make it a goal to pick up a new bikini each summer, and this year I found this pick from Amazon that I loveeee. The shape of the top is super flattering and the bottoms are easy to adjust too (love the ties) and I love the contrasting colors (I’m really feeling a contrasting fashion theme going into summer and fall here).

ACCESSORIES

Jeffrey Campbell ROZI Sandals — Could only find these on Poshmark here, but I recently picked these up on clearance and am super thrilled I did. They’re really stunning IRL and quite comfortable, and I can’t wait to pair them with some summer dresses, jeans or even trousers come fall.

H&M Pearl Huggies — I couldn’t find this exact pair online but linking a similar pair here. I love how simple and dainty they are — pretty much go with any earring stack you pair them with and they add a touch of elegance to any look.

Prada Symbole PR17WS Glasses — I looked back at some of my recent faves and realized I never included these Prada babies that I picked up a few months back!! They’ve been such a popular pick for this summer and I can see why — they’re super sleek, look good on just about anyone and paired with anything. I went with the tortoise finish with brown lenses and I love ‘em sooooo much.

Leaving you with one of my fave Shakes quotes about the nature of peace: (I love this one because it can apply to so many things).

“ A peace is of the nature of a conquest; for then both parties nobly are subdued, and neither party loser. ”

[Henry IV. Part II. 4.3]
