Hot Hot Hot

(Cardigan: Target, Shirt: SO at Kohl's, Shorts: Old Navy, Sandals: Sonoma at Kohl's, Watch: Target)

Man I look extremely tan in these pics or at least I think I do. It would make sense that I look tan granted that I got a spray tan the day before. These pictures are actually from last week right before the wedding. I only wish I was still that tan but it never seems to last (looking good) for a few days. I know I am posting these pictures a little late but this is a perfect example of what I would wear on a typical weekend. Not too dressed up but not my normal sweats and t-shirts and it is perfect for running errands, which I was doing all day that day. Plus it has been pretty hot here lately with temps in the 90s the last couple days.

I am in love with the way the mountains look here! So pretty with the clouds in the sky.

What I Like...Wednesday 6/29/11

Since we, the United States of Americam, will be celebrating our independence this weekend, I thought that I would make this What I Like...Wednesday about the 4th of July. I am trying to be a little patriotic here.When I think of the 4th of July, I think of spending time outside and having a blast whether you are in the mountains, at the beach, or just having a bbq in your backyard with friends.

1. I think that this dress from Target would be perfect for a bbq and hanging out watching fireworks. It would not work for where I am going, since I am going to to be roughing it in the mountains.

2. This necklace reminds me of the beach (maybe it is the shells).

3. Pleated shorts seem to be in and I can't decided whether I like them or not. But these are pretty cute and paired with a tank or blouse would keep you cool on a hot day!

4. A nice pair of flat sandals will keep your feet from hurting espeically if you are doing a lot of walking. I love the ruffles on these!

5. There wayfarer sunglasses are amazing and also are only 12 bucks. I think I need a pair or two.

Now for my 4th of July weekend, I will be headed up to the mountains to do some camping, hiking and 4 wheeling! I look forward to this trip every summer. Maybe I will even get to see some snow.

 Here is where I am heading! Also a few pics from last year!

I was shopping at Goodwill a while back and found this beauty!!! I absolutely love this skirt and since it is yellow and has buttons it is even better. The button placement makes it sort of sailor-ish or at least to me. Since it is summer now and the temperatures are definitely showing it, I feel like I can wear super bright colors.

Hurray for the 4th of July!!!! I can't wait for the weekend to come! We are headed up to the mountains for a little camping and 4 wheeling where I plan to get plenty dirty and have tons of fun. There won't be any style posts coming from this weekend since I plan on wearing jeans, t-shirts and sneakers all weekend.
What are you doing for the 4th?

Golf Pro

(Cardigan: H&M, T-shirt: SO at Kohl's, Pants: American Eagle (old), Flats: Target)

Everytime I wear these pants I get plenty of comments about them. Of course they aren't always nice. The girls that I work with always say that these pants are cute and then the guys have some remark about them. One guys asked if I was the table cloth for the picnic table and I always get the one about looking like a golfer. The funny thing is that I don't golf nor do I know how (unless you include putt putt and I am not good at that either).

If I was going to be in town this weekend, I could have worn these pants to the US Women's Open (golf) Tournament. Too bad I will be spending my time in the mountains!!!!
