Have you ever walked into a store, and had the clouds part… and the only thing existing in that store is you and that perfect pair of shoes? Or maybe even a cute flowy dress? Maybe even a casual top?
Ok, well maybe that’s a bit extreme, but that is the experience I had when walking into Aldo a couple of weeks ago. I managed to spot the most amazing wedges.
I’m a huge fan of wedges, so this find was exceptionally exciting for me. Wedges are a great trend for summer, they elongate your legs like heels and they can be worn casual or dressed up.
Another great trend that I’m loving is the maxi dress.
Abstract Print Maxi Dress, $22.80 from Forever 21
I feel like this trend has been coming back every summer and I am so happy for this! This dress is great for Sunday brunch, a Saturday shopping trip or a day at the beach. The best part — you don’t even have to spend tons of cash to get great styles. Forever 21 has great ones for about $20!
Dream Tees Off-the-shoulder Tee, $29.50 from Victoria’s Secret
The last trend that I can not leave out is the off-the-shoulder tee — it would be a sin to the many of them that I own. This shirt is the perfect go-to top to throw on and run to the store, meet some friends or can even be dressed up for a night out! I have many of these and they are perfect for when I have nothing to wear to wear for class or going out — they go with everything!
My style may give the impression that I’m casual chic. I do, however, like to own pieces that are versatile and can be dressed up or just worn out and about. This not only keeps you looking chic, but makes your wallet happy.
What are the go-to style items that you have in your closet?

I love the last outfit. The off the shoulder look is cute and the shorts are adorable – I really like them together!

I love all of these. I don’t have any wedges or long dresses but I hope to get both this season. I have one off the shoulder shirt and its one of my most comfortable.

I love dresses (sundress or maxi) and wedge sandals–they are the most comfortable of high heeled shoes. I like the last look but I am not fond of showing bra straps…and I can’t be in public not wearing a bra. So looking forward to breaking out the dresses and sandals, I could live in them all summer (and most of spring and fall).

What the hell is a “maxi” dress and why was that monstrosity invented?

@raised_bywolves@xanga - It’s so unflattering. Perhaps it’s for girls who don’t wanna shave their legs, lol. I’m too short and wide to pull it off.
I love wedges
