Classy Southern Texan

Summer is quickly approaching and my summer wardrobe of shorts, t-shirts and sandals is ready!!!

I love to wear neutrals with fun pops of color in the SUMMER! Give me all the corals, turquoise, fuchsia, yellows and bright blues you can!

I recently paired together a fun outfit with purples and a fun neon yellow! This is the perfect outfit for a GNO, date night, or even the work place. I love that the top can be tucked in or out however, I prefer in.

Both the top and skirt are from Banana Republic and the shoes are Michael Kors. Bracelets and earrings Stella and Dot.






 
I recently ordered some fun new dresses, tops and sandals from Nordstrom and can't wait to try them on. I love shopping Nordstrom because of the free shipping and returns. I also love their points system and earring Nordstrom notes for future purchase. Twice yearly they do anniversary sales and then triple points day also.

They offer so many fun brands that there truly is something for everyone!

What colors do you like to wear in the SUMMER?

Summer is quickly approaching, we are on the final days of school parties, teacher appreciation, dance recitals, Mother's Day and the end of sports seasons.

While, May is super busy...soon we will be busy spending our days at the pool, with friends or on a fun family vacation. I don't have kids yet, but I was a former teacher and I babysat throughout the summer for multiple years. I like to be outside playing and enjoying the sunshine vs inside watching TV, playing video games or on technology.

I think it is important to create a SUMMER BUCKET LIST so you can refer back to it on the days your kiddos or you are bored and find a fun activity to enjoy.

Many local communities offer summer camps and things to do from movie in the park to local community wide events for Memorial Day and 4th of July. Spend time browsing your local newspaper, Facebook and community website for things to do.

I have found a variety of websites for my local community and am sharing them below. From the library to the water park there is something for all ages and lifestyles.

YMCA
