Chambray Romper

Excuse my 3 week hiatus, June has been a crazy month! I've had visitors in town since Memorial Day weekend and I've been non-stop! But after much demand, I'm back! And by much demand, I mean text messages from my mom :) 
I actually wore this outfit a few weeks ago to go to a winery and wine tasting at the Belle Meade Plantation down the road from my apartment. It is so pretty and we happened to be there the day of a wedding so we had fun watching the bride take some pre-wedding pictures. 
I got this romper on super sale from Old Navy a couple of  months ago and its so easy to dress up or down! I'm not going to lie, I was torn at first if I liked it or not. I was stuck between looking like a trendy mechanic or just trendy, but I decided to  keep it and I'm glad I did! 
This would also be a great option for 4th of July this weekend - I paired it with red lips to go out to dinner and out later in the night and with a few more red accessories, and not hot pink, it would be the perfect red, white and blue ensemble! I would recommend sizing down though. I am usually a medium in rompers, especially for the length, and I wish I got this in a small because it's so big in the waist.

Neutrals & Neons

So, I have a few confessions to make before this post goes anywhere. I have an obsession with white on white. I think I'm addicted to Target. And it's up for debate whether or not I have a shopping problem. With that being said, I went to Target last week during lunch to return something (of course) and came out with this clutch and these shoes. In my defense, the shoes were on clearance for $10. TEN DOLLARS. And I had been eyeing similar pairs for a while. 

Needless to say, I spent the remainder of the afternoon at work thinking of how I could work this clutch and these shoes into an outfit for a concert I was going to that night and viola. This was the end result. The night was kicking off Memorial Day weekend so white on white was even more appropriate! Even though I never really stopped wearing white.... I love the lace detailing on this shirt, I've already worn it a few times!

This gorgeous necklace, which I also mentioned here, is one of the Rocksbox gems I received and I have worn it so much. I still can't decide if I should just buy it because it's on the pricier side, but I still can't part with it just yet!

Neons & Pom Poms

If you follow me on Instagram, this picture/outfit may look familiar. I wore this dress a few weeks ago to go downtown and watch the Kentucky Derby (we never saw the race...). This was one of the first nice days we had and my roommate and I laid out in the grass because our pool wasn't open yet. Therefore, this was also the first sunburn of the season, so I have a little extra glow in these pictures :) 

I spotted this dress as I was running into T.J. Maxx to make a return. Can you ever go to that place to do only a return? I think it's impossible. Between the bright colors and pom poms, I had to have it. And, my first Rocksbox had just come in the mail and this necklace matched perfectly! It was all really meant to be.

Friday Five

Happy Friday! I literally feel like last Friday was yesterday and I couldn't even tell you one prominent thing that happened this week, time is just flying by! But I did book my first flight home to Connecticut this week and I've been setting plans in stone for all of my visitors for CMA Fest here in Nashville in less than a month!! I am so excited for some of my best friends and my brother to be in town. 26 days, if anyone is keeping track... 
Prom Story. If you didn't see this story in the news this week, here is one of the most feel good stories I've read lately. This sweet high school quarterback made a promise to a longtime friend with Downs Syndrome to take her to prom, and he did just that. It's so easy in high school to get caught up in being "cool" that this brought such a big smile to my face.

Nick Fradiani. I will admit, I haven't watched American Idol in probably 10 years. But being from Connecticut, I had to watch the finale to see Connecticut's own Nick Fradiani win! It's so funny because I've seen Facebook postings and things for his CT based band for a couple of years now and now he won American Idol! And... he's actually good! I always love watching finales like these, I get so excited for the winner!

Rocksbox. So, I finally gave in and subscribed to Rocksbox. And let me tell you, for $10 a month, it's so worth it! I somehow ended up getting two boxes in the same week, which was extra exciting! If you haven't heard of it, basically you get 3 pieces of jewelry in each box and you can choose to purchase them for a discounted price or just "loan" them for as long as you want and send them back when you're done! I am obsessed with this gorgeous Perry Street necklace. Also, you can get a free month from me with this link! May as well try it once, right?

This Workout. I was sick this week, so when I couldn't make it to the gym one night, I opted for this at home workout. If any of you listen to Elvis Duran, Worst Assistant Anthony posted it on Wednesday and it was actually awesome! I did 2 rounds of it, but if I was feeling better I would try to do 3 or 4. And let me tell you, 2 rounds had me in a serious sweat. I'm definitely planning on adding this into my post cardio routine at the gym, too. 

Palm Leaf Jumpsuit. I have seen this TopShop jumpsuit from Nordstrom on multiple blogs and I am actually obsessed with it. I love the palm leaf print, and I love a good jumpsuit. It's been out of stock but it looks like it's back in select sizes! To splurge or not splurge... 

Have a good weekend, and thanks for stopping by!
