Summer is by far my favorite season as well as one of the most stylish seasons for me. I tend to do a lot in the summer such as weekend trips, boat trips & beach days so I have way too many summer clothes. I wanted to share some of my favorite casual summer pieces. All light-weight, comfy, and beautiful for the perfect summer day. Oh, and of course, my favorite summer shoes! What are your favorite summer pieces?

Sunshine & Floral
With exactly 3 weeks left until my due date, I am at the point where when I get dressed in the morning, I wear “whatever fits”. The great thing about this gorgeous weather is that maxi dresses are the perfect, comfortable solution for this late in pregnancy. The pool is open, the sun is shinin’ and I am rockin’ this awesome watch gifted from Guess- the perfect summer watch since the band is silicone & waterproof and has gorgeous rose gold accents.

Cinco de Mayo
I love the color and fiesta of Cinco de Mayo every year. Any excuse to have a margarita, I’ll take it. I will be making delicious tacos tonight along with virgin fresh margaritas to celebrate. I also love the start of Aztec-inspired fashion with strappy sandals, colorful prints, and adorable straw hats to kick-off summer fashion. How are you celebrating Cinco de Mayo?
Below is a Cinco de Mayo inspired look and of course, I am sharing my favorite skinny margarita recipe.
The Best Skinny Margarita
Instructions
Fill a small cocktail shaker with ice. Pour in the tequila, freshly squeezed lime and orange juice. Put on the lid and shake for 30 seconds. Strain the liquid into your glass and garnish with a slice of lime. You can add agave nectar but I have been trying to cut out sugar where possible so I usually do without 🙂
Rim with sea salt and enjoy!
High-tops + Chambray
I rarely wear sneakers unless I am hiking or working out. I am 5’2 and take any inch I can get so I usually avoid flats or sneakers at all cost. When I saw these adorable pink-accented wedge sneakers for only $10 on clearance at T.J. Maxx, I knew I would be kicking around in sneakers a lot more. I paired with basic shorts and a versatile Denim top from Squares Hearts my new go-to site for great finds at awesome prices, where you can find here. Of course, the corona light & my pup Zoey brought the whole look together; don’t you just love summer nights?
