The Blues

Blue and white is undoubtedly my favorite combination of colors, and I have been waiting since last summer to pair this dress with this chambray blazer. Finally the perfect morning came on Sunday, when it was just a little bit chilly out - enough to warrant the blazer draped casually over my shoulders.

Sure enough the sun came out and warmed everything up to a toasty 86°, but I took full advantage of the low 70's while I had them. Hopefully plenty more perfect summer days are still on the horizon.

  10. What a fresh Summer look. Love both of those Chambray pieces, especially paired together. I am wearing a Pink/Blush Chambray Dress on the blog today. =) Your 2 nautical bracelets are perfect for this.

    Hope you are enjoying Summer thus far, Lydia. It is already half-way over.

    Take Care. <3 Ada.

  27. Oooh, we had that same nice 70 degree weather for a while! Right when we were walking around Nashville, so it didn't get too cold or anything. I'm glad you had the same weather! Yeah, it's gonna get hot soon, but I guess it has to eventually. Sigh!

    I love that blazer on you. You always have the most darling blazers.

  28. Kansas has been crazy cool this summer. We had this perfect week where I could wear light, long-sleeved tops. Now today it's like a freaking sauna and it's the worst.

  32. This dress is, without a doubt, one of my very favourite things that you own. I think the reason I love it so much every time you wear it is that I know that, had I seen it in a store, I wouldn't have looked at it twice. But when you wear it, it's magical - and every outfit with it is better than the last!
