Simple Fourth of July Outfit

IMG_9552IMG_9535IMG_9551

Hello everyone, welcome back!  Today I’m sharing a simple and easy outfit for the upcoming weekend.  If red isn’t your color, or you favor yourself a less festive dresser, this outfit is perfect.  I am beyond obsessed with the cute details on this top, from the buttons to the pleats and the hem!  The color goes great with any number of items (you may remember I paired it with these lemon shorts here), but I love the way it pops against all white.

Lately I have been inspired by any and everything soft and romantic.  For starters, I’ve been listening to Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding for about two straight weeks and can’t get enough of it (definitely check out the full Fifty Shades of Grey Soundtrack if you have a spare minute!)

In my quest for hair inspiration, I fell in love with Cara Delevingne’s elegant low french twist and Emma Watson’s chic ponytail, both of which would look perfectly romantic paired with the Naked3 Palette.

I’ve been binge-watching Scandal lately, and feeling so inspired by Olivia Pope’s flawless professional wardrobe.  When it comes to workwear, I always gravitate towards skirts and dresses, which are just not practical below thirty degrees.  Olivia’s detailed jackets and textured layers in delicate fabrics and silhouettes make wearing work pants as feminine and powerful as possible.

Wanderlust stricken as I am at the moment, I am completely enamored with the gorgeous canals of Venice and Julia’s Tuscany post. They both look like the perfect backdrop for any and everything soft, romantic, and feminine; and hopefully future vacation spots for me!
