Dress a Day in July: The Fifteenth

Dress: Urban Outfitters | Wedges: Forever 21 | Necklace: Free People

This dress is another old favorite. It's such a comfortable dress that's made of a thicker material than usual, something I really like about it. I also dig the color scheme and pattern. I've come to realize that I'm really into midi-styles, I find them much more comfortable to wear than dresses on the shorter side since I feel less self-conscious about making sure my skirt isn't riding up. I also think the knee-length hemline is pretty flattering. Me gusta, haha! I paired this dress with some nude wedges that I don't think I've actually ever worn out…*side look* (I know :p). I also wore one of my favorite necklaces ever, and the "type" of moon written on the disc corresponds to my birthday month (yay for October babies!).

Dress a Day in July: The Fourteenth

 

Dress: Forever 21 | Shoes: American Eagle Outfitters | Bag: Madewell 

There's a somewhat interesting story behind how I added this dress to my wardrobe about two years ago. Natalie (who I've mentioned before and has been my photographer lately, hehe) accidentally bought two of these dresses from Forever 21 and ended up selling them to me and our other friend, Tara. Anywho, I quite like the sort of shirtdress style as it's different from what I usually tend to buy. I also love the colors and botanical print of the dress. I wore these tan woven sandals which I purchased last year, and I liked how the color of the shoes went well with the color of my bag and belt. 

Dress a Day in July: The Thirteenth

Dress: Forever 21 | Skirt: Topshop | Sandals: Topshop | Necklace: Wishlist London | Bunny ring: Etsy |  Curved midi ring: The Bohemian Collective | Thick midi ring: Topshop

I've had this Forever 21 floral dress since about junior year of high school (I think), and hadn't worn it in quite a long time. It's a bit of a short dress on me now, so I decided to put on my favorite skater skirt from Topshop. My sandals, which are also from Topshop, were purchased a few months ago for my spring break travels, and they are some of the comfiest sandals I own. My friend (and photographer for my next few outfit posts, hehe thanks girl!) Natalie chose my accessories for this outfit, which included my simple Wishlist London disc necklace (my keepsake from London Fashion Weekend), a bunny ring from Etsy (purchase inspired by Laura from buynowbloglater), a curved midi ring from The Bohemian Collection (purchase inspired by some British Youtubers), and a thicker band midi ring from Topshop (purchased last year while in Vegas). Though I often keeps things very minimal when it comes to accessories, I do enjoy wearing multiple rings sometimes!

Dress a Day in July: The Twelfth

Dress: Brandy Melville | Shoes: Birkenstocks

Day 12 was quite a busy day. There was lots to do since I spent most of the day with family from out of town, and later in the day I was off to celebrate one of my best friend's (herro dearest if you're reading this!) birthday. I kept things simple and decided to wear this comfortable Brandy Melville dress which features a cool back cut-out. Paired with my favorite shoe of the moment, I was all set. 

Today's outtake features a cute little photoshoot crasher who ran right up to me (ahhhh the cuteness was too much to handle) while Fran and I were taking pictures! Shortly after this was taken, I carried the little guy back to his rightful home :)

Until next time!

Dress a Day in July: The Eleventh

Dress: Brandy Melville | Blouse: Urban Outfitters | Shoes: Birkenstocks | Bracelet: Free People

As much as I love wearing dresses, by day 11 I started feeling a bit tired of them (gasp!). Don't get me wrong, dresses are quite often my clothing of choice, however I'm starting to feel like my outfits have gotten a bit boring lately. I decided to add some layering to the mix to try and make things a bit less redundant, and this floaty collared blouse was perfect to layer over this striped spaghetti strap dress. I like the lightness of the blouse since it didn't make me feel uncomfortably warm in this already warm summer weather (though later that evening when I met up with some friends to hang out, I was pretty chilly outside when nighttime rolled around). Seeing as my outfit was quite monochrome, I accessorized with this colorful bracelet from Free People (a purchase inspired by my cousin, Fran, who also has the same one…hehe). I love the combination of colored threads, glass hearts, and other small embellishments on the bracelet, which all seem very summery to me.

Dress a Day in July: The Tenth

Dress: Target | Sandals: Prabal Gurung for Target

Day 10 was another chill day/picture catch-up day for DADJ. My lovely friend Lindsey helped me take  these photos, as well as ones for Day 4. Besides having a mini "photoshoot"(a term used very loosely around here, haha) and then picking up some Starbucks afterwards, my day probably consisted of a lot of Netflix/Youtube watching…such a bum. Anyways, since I wasn't doing much on this day I opted for this super comfortable Target dress, which also makes a nice swimsuit cover-up (I brought this with me on a trip to Hawaii a couple years back!). To complete the outfit I chose my comfortable Prabal Gurung for Target (which may be my favorite collaboration Target has done as of now) sandals. Again, Target ftw!

Dress a Day in July: The Ninth

Dress: Target | Sandals: Sam & Libby for Target

Day 9! The agenda for this day included spending some quality time with Kristi, one of my oldest/best friends, and getting my eyebrows threaded for the first time (surprisingly it wasn't that painful despite what I've heard, I'm a fan!). During the summertime when I want to be comfy and am not sure what to wear, I often turn to this chevron-printed dress from one of my favorite places EVER: Target! Those who know me may know about my slight Target obsession…I sometimes go there and browse just for fun (which, for the record, I don't think is that strange! Anyone care to back me up? :p). Anyways, I love the colors and pattern of the dress, as well as the slight high-low hem.  To finish off the outfit I wore some comfortable studded tan gladiator sandals that are also from Target. This was a purchase inspired by Chelseawears, one of my favorite Youtubers/bloggers hehe.
