My New Happy: Summer Style Week 3

Summer Style Week 3


Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends!  

I can't believe it's already week three of the Summer Style Challenge, and today I'm linking up with the fashionistas to share what we wore this week.

Before we get to the clothes, congratulations to Ashley Bree Perez, the winner of our $200 Gap Brands gift card giveaway!  Thank you so much to everyone who entered.



A few random thoughts:

-It has been HOT in Seattle.  Upper 80's, low 90's for days on end, which I don't recall happening in June before, ever.  I haven't worn a sweatshirt or sweater in weeks - which is also unprecedented.  Last year I couldn't even do the Summer Challenge, because it was too cold to wear shorts.  I do not know what's going on with this weather, but I like it!

-After two years of looking, I finally found a pair of white eyelet shorts.  I am ridiculously happy about these shorts.

-I really like my asymmetrical coral skirt, but after looking at the picture, I'm not thrilled with how I styled it.  Suggestions for next time?

-I'm pretty sure I've mentioned Hautelook.com before, but it's been a while. The site is affiliated with Nordstrom Rack, and they often have really great deals.  I recently got these Cole Haan sandals, regularly $70, for $16.99.



-One last enabler alert for your Wednesday.  Old Navy is having a great sale online right now, with free shipping if you spend $25 or more.  It's a great time to stock up on summer essentials.

Be sure to check out the other ladies to see what they're up to this week, and link up with us below!

  1. Ok, WOW on the Cole Hahn sandals! Wow on the Old Navy sale! I said I would stop shopping for summer, but...
    And WOW to your outfits! I think my fave is the lace top...? Or maybe the vest outfit?? I can't decide, they are all super cute!! Have you tried the tiny knot in your tee--that i think it would be perfect with that skirt. Just take a clear SMALL elastic hair tie and knot it...there is a tutorial on the More Pieces of Me blog....my mind was blown! LOL! XOXO

  4. Wow those sandals at such a great deal! I am ridiculously happy for you and your white eyelet shorts, and they're even on sale right now! Now they just need to be 2 inches shorter and I would have thrown them in my cart and called it a day. I have those same green shorts and am going to copy that outfit soon! I really wouldn' thave paired my vest with those..goes to show you really can wear the denim vest with anything.

  6. I love all the looks! I really need to hit the stores. I'm planning to in the next couple of weeks and plan on definitely giving hautelook.com a shot! Thanks for the tips and enjoy the warm weather. We are enjoying a brief cool off after temps in the 100's for 2 weeks!

  7. Incredible summer looks! So breezy. I love the skirt in the second photo.
    We've had such weird weather - and luckily not too hot yet. I'm ready, though.

  11. I was just visiting with daughter tonight and she said it's so hot in OR. Maybe 102 tomorrow and no A/C. Love, love that lace top. It's has such gorgeous detail. Eyelet shorts are so feminine - I wish I had a pair. You and Deena make me wish I had white sandals. I have been totally against them for years but my attitude is changing.

  14. Oh, I want some eyelet shorts, too. And I like the length of yours. I followed your link to White House Black Market but I am not sure about what size to get. The largest they have now are 8. I can wear an 8 at Loft but only because I think their 8 is a very generous one. How true to size are these? You look just adorable in them.
