Blush and Chambray

 I was able to visit a H&M store recently while they were having a huge 4th of July sale and I picked up this pretty blush lace sleeveless top and a blush dress for....wait for it....$4.00 each!  I know, I couldn't believe it myself!  When I saw the sale price and the item(s) I thought "OK, what's wrong with it?" because normally when something is that inexpensive something is wrong with the fit.  But I took the items to the dressing room and I was totally surprised at how cute they were!  I can't wait to show you all the dress, but to me it's kinda on the fancy side so I'm saving it for a big occasion.

It's hard to see the detail of this top in the far away shots so here is a close up.  I absolutely love the lace panel.  I think this top will work great under a cardigan, blazer, or coat when the weather cools too!

It was a hot, hot day when I wore this outfit shopping and out to lunch with my husband.  I wore it with an old chambray skirt and new rose gold sandals.

Speaking of chambray/denim skirts I keep seeing women comment on blogs that's it's good to see denim skirts back in style again.  I'm so surprised, because I never knew they were out-of-style.  They seem as classic as a pair of jeans to me...at least, I've never stopped wearing them.

I'm a huge fan of short skirts when the temperatures climb, however I recently bought a midi chambray skirt from CJBanks as I know skirts this short aren't always appropriate.  I'm not sure if I like the midi skirt I just bought.  I always feel I look frumpy in midi skirts.  I might shorten it so it just touches the top of the knee.

 I carried a boho bag that had both colors of my outfit in it, and I wore a pink beaded bracelet on my wrist.

My Adrienne Vittadini Claud Gladiator Sandals in Rose Gold are new this season.  I bought them to wear on my vacation to Myrtle Beach because I wanted a very supportive walking sandals.  The support is great, my problem is the straps are a bit tight.  I wish this shoe was available in a wide.

I went shopping for a new pair of sunglasses.  I really wanted a pair of rose gold sunglasses, but when I saw these light pink sunglasses with gold trim, I changed my mind and bought these instead.  I got them from JCPenney.

I wore delicate long silver earrings instead of a necklace because I already had so much going on in my top.

I was surprised I bought two blush color items on this shopping trip, because normally this color does not look good on me.  I think because I have a tan from gardening, that I am finally able to wear this color near my face.  Normally blush washes me out or is so close to my natural skin color I look naked.

Have a Great Day!  Amy
