Hello Summer


Joie Blouse.  Vince Leather Shorts.  Gorjana x BaubleBar Necklaces + Bracelets.
gifted Pour La Victoire Sandals.  3.1 Phillip Lim Satchel.  The Row Sunglasses.

It's been pretty humid this week and definitely not leather shorts weather but after pinning this picture of Olivia Palermo they're all I've wanted to wear. I've also quickly adopted (and mastered) a simple hair solution to combat frizz. Simply curl the front pieces around your face and loosely pin, or not pin (as worn here) those pieces back into a messy bun. A low maintenance hair style... I'm officially summer ready

LOVE your leather shorts! I had been searching for some, too. They seem like the perfect, nicer alternative to cutoffs. You're outfit will definitely get me looking again!

Not leather shorts weather? What? Too hot?! No way! I don't even break my leather shorts out until summer! With a breezey top, they're fine! And on the hottest days, they're good for going out at night.

XO,
