boho print top

August 27, 2015

As you are well aware, the summer’s in Dallas are HOT. We try not to complain about it too much, because a warm summer means a warmer winter and we are not the biggest fans of the cold weather! Usually this means the lightest, most comfortable dresses are worn daily. There was one day last week where the tempatures dropped to the 80s (gasp!) and jeans never felt so good to wear!

When the weather gets cooler, we love nothing more than wearing a favorite pair of jeans and a printed boho top. Boho tops are one of our favorite things to wear. The print and detailing takes denim up a notch and they look adorable with boyfriend shorts in the summer. This boho top has been a summer staple, but we were so excited to finally be able to wear it with jeans while during that fluke 80 degree day! A few of our other boho favorites are: a blue and white embroidered boho jacket with tassels- its adorable! This black and white boho top is a great piece to wear now and into fall with a pair of jeans and over the knee boots, plus it’s a great deal at just $38!

PS: You can see how I wore a blue and white boho short set earlier this summer here!

We love walking in London. The streets are so charming- you never know what you will find if you turn down a random corner. Mews after mews all perfectly manicured, and so many chic Londoners walking their dogs. Not to mention the darling cafes and bakeries that tempt us to stop and indulge! We are enjoying a much needed break from the heat in Dallas, loving this cooler, rainy weather.

As we did for last week’s steals and deals, we are trying to find pieces that can easily transition from summer to fall. This wool panama hat is a perfect example. It’s on sale now, but will be worn through fall and winter. Our style is always evolving, so we try to focus on wear now and later, but not buying solely for the purpose of next summer– who knows if we will still like that style? This sandal is an exception, we are sure we will want to wear it now and next year, all summer long! Be sure to check out this week’s steals and deals here:

nordstrom: the classic ballet flat (under $100), a great shirt to wear with jeans this fall (under $50) & a sweater tunic is great for layering
revolve: love this double slit maxi dress, this blanket poncho is a great transition piece & the tribal print on this dress
j. crew: a striped tee is always a good idea (especially when it’s under $50), this shirt is great to wear now and layer later & this pullover sweater comes in nine other colors and is under $100

Thank you for all the email suggestions about things to do in London! Right now we are enjoying coffee and breakfast, and having a true-to-London, gray dreary morning while making plans for the rest of the day. We are really happy that we decided to pack our Hunter boots– rain is in the forecast! It is so exciting to be here, and we can’t wait to get out and about, discovering more interesting things to see and do in London. If you think of any other recommendations, please share them with us!

Before our trip to Sonoma a few weeks ago, I made a quick stop at Nordstrom to see if there was anything that would be perfect to wear to the rehearsal dinner. I wanted something new for the event, but something that I could also wear more than just a month or two with this growing baby bump. The first thing I saw was this baby blue color. One of my all time favorite colors, but it’s one that you just don’t see all the time! Once I saw the draped detailing, I knew this dress was perfect for the occasion- and for the bump! This draped dress comes in four different colors: olive green, coral, black. There is also a long sleeved version that comes in the prettiest royal blue. And for those of you who are further along in your pregnancy, a maternity version is available in black– so chic!

Cheers,
