summer black

 



Dress :: Theory (old, love this sale one) || Clutch :: Givenchy (large version pictured)
Espadrilles :: Christian Louboutin || Bracelets :: Hermes & Eddie Borgo || Sunnies :: Ray-Ban


When in doubt, wear black. My everyday motto. There is no seasonal exception to my rule. Even in the summer I default to black. Speaking of default, this black dress has been a summertime go to for a couple of seasons now. I bring it to the front of my closet almost immediately when I feel the temps begin to rise. Its been a humid heatwave in Atlanta, leaving me wearing less. Forgive me for the lack of complexity of this look. Its hard to layer and be more creative with my looks the hotter it gets. And its only June, oh boy! This strapless black number is the ideally loose and light look for any occasion. An oldie but goodie! 

Thank you so much for following along. I hope you have a great weekend! Make sure to follow my weekend adventures on Instagram! xx.

  2. LOVE this look... Those espadrilles are everything. Need them ASAP. What color are your aviators? Are they silver or the gunmetal? I have silver, but I think yours are different and I like them better haha. Let me know! Have a great weekend, doll!

    1. Hey Bekka! So I was pretty nervous when I ordered the sunnies bc the person helping me at Nordy to me to order the green/blue color after telling him what I was requesting. I would have bet $100 they were going to show up wrong but he was correct! So weird right?? I love them and I guess thats all that matters! Good luck on your search! Have a great weekend. xx.
