Dress a Day in July: The Twenty-second








Dress: Cotton On | Cardigan: Romwe | Sandals: American Eagle Outfitters| Necklace: Free People

The thing that drew my attention to this dress while shopping was definitely its color. I absolutely love the brightness of this royal blue/cobalt, and it definitely stands out in my wardrobe as I don't have anything else in a color like this. I paired it with this delicate cream lace cardigan that I ordered recently from Romwe. This is already a fast favorite of mine, and I can definitely see this as becoming a staple in my wardrobe in this warm weather. I kept details simple with my rediscovered woven sandals and favorite Free People necklace.

Here's an outtake from when Natalie used the continuous shooting mode on my camera (again) while I proceeded to spin in a circle (it wasn't that cute…haha), and another outtake from when I started laughing:



Until next time!

Dress a Day in July: The Twenty-first








Dress: Olsenboye | Sandals: Sam & Libby for Target 

On this day, I decided to bring out this floaty Olsenboye dress that I bought about three years ago now. I hadn't worn it in a long time, so I figured wearing it for DADJ would be a good idea. I belted the dress and added my Target sandals; I felt very boho in this outfit.

Here's a silly outtake:


Surprisingly I kept this post pretty short...expect two posts a day from now until the end of DADJ! (hopefully)

Until next time!

Dress a Day in July: The Twentieth






Dress: Free People | Sandals: Topshop

Finally in the twenties, woohoo! On this day the weather was strangely muggy and cloudy, but still slightly warm. So I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to wear one of my favorite Free People long-sleeved dresses. I love the floral detailing, and the fact that the pattern is throughout the dress, including down the sleeves. I paired them with some of my favorite Topshop sandals, and kept it simple with very minimal jewelry.

Here's a silly outtake of me laughing while Natalie snapped pictures for me:


Until next time!

Dress a Day in July: The Nineteenth




Dress: Free People | Button-down: Popbasic | Boots: Office | Bag: Beara Beara 

On this day I tagged along with Natalie and her family on a trip to San Francisco to check out the ramen festival in Japantown. It was so crowded in Japantown that day, it was crazy. But before we went to Japantown, Natalie, Lizzi (Natalie's friend from school who we met up with), and I had some fun checking out a couple thrift stores (where I bought a dress that'll be featured in DADJ soon!). After eating some delicious ramen in Japantown, we ran into our friend, Megan, and her boyfriend, Anthony. Lizzi, Megan, and Anthony got some cute-looking crepes, while Natalie and I just held out for my favorite macaron place. All of us walked to the macaron shop, where Natalie helped me take pictures for this post (thanks again girl!). 

I was anticipating some cooler weather in SF, but it actually ended up being pretty warm. I wore one of my favorite lace dresses from Free People, and layered my favorite button-down shirt from Popbasic on top. I'm a big fan of layering collared shirts with dresses and skirts, and I took the slightly cooler weather as an opportunity to bring out this button-down. I was able to wear my chelsea boots from Office for the first time in a while (almost wanted to write "forever" instead of "a while"…ehehe), and I also decided to take this trip into the city as a chance to use my Beara Beara leather satchel that I bought in London. 

Here's an outtake in which Lizzi and I did some matching poses, haha :)


Until next time!

Dress a Day in July: The Eighteenth





Dress: ASOS | Wedges: TOMS | Ring: Boutique on Columbia Road (Brand: White Leaf)

Here's a colorful number for day 18! This was an ASOS purchase made a couple years ago. I really liked the digital/almost 90's print, and the two lace keyholes just under the neckline. I saw this as another good opportunity to bring out my TOMS wedges that I really need to wear more often. I kept accessories pretty minimal (which is quite normal for me) with my usual leather bracelet and this patterned ring, another favorite London find. I stumbled upon this find as I was browsing the cute shops along Columbia Road while on a visit to the flower market, one of my very favorite places in London.

*Side note: this is unexpectedly one of my favorite posts from DADJ…just thought I'd throw that out there haha! (Tanks Natalie, hehe!) 

Now, let's end this post with a lovely derpy outtake:


Until next time!

Dress a Day in July: The Seventeenth

 





Dress: Urban Outfitters | Necklace: Popbasic 

Yet again, here's another old favorite that I've had since high school. Natalie (again my photographer for today, hehe!) actually found this while we were shopping at Urban Outfitters one day, and suggested that I try it on. I'm a sucker for girly white dresses, and I especially like the scooped neckline and cute bow in the back of the dress. It's quite a light and airy dress yet again, which makes it pretty perfect for summer in my opinion! Natalie and I both agreed that this would be the perfect dress to pair with my amethyst necklace from Popbasic's "Lost" collection that I bought last year. The stone is a little bit of a lighter amethyst color than these pictures show, and I love that it's quite different than other necklaces in my collection.

Dress a Day in July: The Sixteenth






Dress: Cotton On | Sandals: Saltwaters | Sunglasses: Urban Outfitters | Silver ring: Topshop | Colorful glass ring: purchased in Venice

Another rediscovered dress that was purchased a couple years ago. This is quite a summery and light dress, and one with a cute triangle cut-out in the back (I'm definitely into dresses with back details as you can probably tell from a few of my earlier posts!). I decided to bring out my white Saltwaters that I haven't worn in ages since they pair with the dress pretty nicely. For some added fun I put on my colorful floral sunglasses. Natalie chose my accessories again on this day, picking out one of my favorite silver midi rings from Topshop and my colorful glass ring that I purchased while I was in Venice a few months ago (it's one of my favorite travel souvenirs I brought back with me).

Here's an outtake from when we tried to get a cool shot of throwing rose petals in the air…ahaha:


Until next time!
