It’s summertime and the livins easssyyyy….

That’s my motto for July.

Speaking of July… can you believe it’s July 1st? Holy shit.

Anywho, as I’ve mentioned before – I try to keep my summer wardrobe EASY. If you’ve ever visited New York during the summer, you know how f*cking hot it can get – so for me, there’s nothing worse than making a fuss over an outfit. I like simple summer separates like this navy blouse I picked up from J.Crew (on sale!) and white jeans.

I have three different pair of white jeans that I have been rotating this summer….

Does anyone instantly spill as soon as they put white on?

I swear I’m cursed but this pair from J.Brand have been on major repeat this summer. White jeans can be hard for me but this pair is slimming and thick enough that you can’t see through to the pockets (my pet peeve).

Speaking of repeats, my greek key pendant from Julie Vos has also been a major summer staple! I love how it can instantly dress up an outfit – take a peek at Julie Vos’ entire collection right this way…

Have a lovely Wednesday, friends!

Can you believe July 4th is right around the corner?

I’m headed back to Chicago for this 4th of July and literally couldn’t be more excited. I haven’t been back to Chicago since the year I moved! I have so many friends I want to see, things I want to do, and restaurants I want to try. It’s going to be weird going back for sure, but so glad Jess and Hallie will both be there this weekend!

In honor of one of my favorite holidays, I’ve rounded up a few of my favorite pieces that would be perfect to rock this weekend. These Illesteva red sunnies? Duh. Happy Tuesday! Xo. Lauren
