Hey Pretty Wahine.....This One's For You!

Hey Horizontal Stripers,

       It's officially summer! I'm in Hawaiian Tropic mode, where summer breezes and flip flops conjure up memories of the 2 opportunities I've had to live on the island of O'ahu in Hawai'i. The first half of this blog post title is in homage to one of my favorite songs -- check it out if you're so inclined! Alas, I'll wrap up my rambling so you don't have to sweat your buns off standing still for too long. Don't be afraid to bear your arms or your back in the summer months! It's way too hot to be self-conscious. Be confident and most importantly cool!

                              
      Dress: Forever 21, Pleather Studded Sandals: Lane Bryant, Flower: Cato, Earrings: Charlotte Russe

        If you want to make something sleeveless or backless office appropriate, you can throw on a cropped cardigan like the one below:


   Currently available at Target

        Or, if you still prefer the traditional long sleeved cardigan, look for one in a lightweight fabric and bright color like this one, also available at Target:



 
        A cute accessory will jazz up any summer look. As you can see I'm partial to flowers and earrings, but also appreciate the details on a great shoe or sandal! 

         
 Dress/Flower: It's Fashion Metro, Tube: Cato, Coral Mirror Sandals: Lane Bryant, Optimus Prime Earrings: Rainbow, also available at Ashley Stewart

I hope you'll celebrate the season with some fresh fruit and fun concerts. Don't forget the SPF!!
             
Aloha a hui hou or until we meet again!
