Take a basic plaid shirt and add a statement necklace to add a feminine touch and to dress it up. From basic to stylish in one minute! Great and easy look for a teacher.   

Summer isn’t quite over yet! I’m trying to wear all my summer stuff before September.  

 

Yep. It’s Thursday and I’m just posting my Monday look. That’s what kind of crazy week it’s been. I’m trying to squeeze in all my summer outfits before the summer is unofficially over in my book (September 1).  

 

i learned an awesome alteration hack. No sewing required! So, this dress was too long when I bought it. I took it to be altered and they chopped it too short. I had pinned it myself to save my tailor some time, but there was just a misunderstanding. So it was an odd, midi length. To give it a different look, I tied a knot in the front hem to give it a simple, tulip hem. Easy! 

Check out the beautiful, stitched embroidery! 

 

I love this color combo. I found the skirt at a rummage sale for only $1! 

  

Although this dress wrinkles, terribly, it is so light and breezy. It’s extremely humid in south Texas, especially on the coast. So this dress felt like I was wearing nothing! So light and fresh.  

 

I love this dress and so do a lot of other people. I constantly am getting compliments. Plus, it’s super comfortable. Great summer dress.  Check out the back! 💓

 

I sure do love an easy t-shirt dress. They’re cheap and quick to throw on. Grab one in a Fall color to transition you into the seasonal change. 🍂 Mine is from Forever 21 and is less than $13!  

 

This was last Friday night’s look. I had plans to head out for a run around 8pm, but I got antsy and went to my dad’s to get some office supplies for my classroom around 6. Needless to say, I stopped by my classroom after my dad’s and by the time I got home it was 10pm. I never went running. 😕 

 

I love this clutch! It’s a great transitional piece for Fall. Looking forward to using it to add some detail to some plain, solid dresses I have.
