Happy Thursday!! 

This week totally escaped me.  So much going on in the world and in my life I hardly had time to get any post together. So I will keep it rather light and happy.

I don't wear yellow nearly enough. It is a warm, lovely color that truly makes me feel sunny and  joyful. I am in love with this top, I have had it for a few seasons and it is a Summer go to for sure. 

Love and light from my corner of this earth,

Elise

Good Tuesday Morning...

It seems so silly, or callous to be posting an outfit of the day without acknowledging the horribly violent massacre in Orlando this past weekend. It angers me tremendously that such horrific tragedies happen, but moreover the aftermath that goes along with it.  The finger pointing, the political agendas, the blame game.  This is a time as Americans we should come together and recognize that regardless of your color or creed, what happened in Orlando was an awful, senseless tragedy, as was Newtown, San Bernardino, Aurora and many, many others. We are so hung up on who was targeted and who pointed the gun to execute the killings, but what it boils down to is 50 American lives were lost, and 53 Americans were injured, by another American born man. What is the Answer? How do we stop these mass shootings, and hate toward one another?  

On Sunday night as I watched the TONY awards honoring the best of Broadway I was so moved by the acceptance speech of Mr. Lin-Manuel Miranda...

Happy Friday Eve!  

I have a CRAZY weekend a head of me filled with dinners, drinks, and dance recitals! All fun stuff, I can't wait! 

I have loved the palm print trend since it burst on the scene last year, it just screams Summer and vacation to me!  When I saw this Mara Hoffman tropical palm print dress, I had to make it mine.  With it's  really simple shapeless line it is perfect to throw on after a day in the sun, just as I did here. 

As you can see, I got WAY too much sun (Rodan Fields 50 SPF will review to follow) and the thought of putting on clothes that actually touched me was horrifying. This dress is light and airy and was an excellent choice.

Happy Tuesday! 

Do you know about Eva Jo rompers? It is no secret that I love all things jumpsuit/romper/play suit.  They give such a complete finished look, and it's one and done. Slip it on, and out the door. 

Last fall I stumbled upon Eva Jo on Insta.  I instantly fell in love with the simplicity of these rompers. 

Wanting to steer away from the usual black I usually gravitate to, I chose the Sylvie romper in royal blue.  Guys, when I  tell you this is the best romper, I mean it.  The cotton modal is the perfect weight and hangs just right. I have already worn this romper so many times, and different each time. 

Today I chose a simple gladiator and a hat to round out this look... 

How do you wear a romper?

Good Wednesday Morning! 

My blogging schedule is a little off this week. I spent the long weekend at the beach away from a computer and was unable to work on any posts.  

I hope all of you had an amazing weekend celebrating Memorial Day remembering those who have fought for our great country and ushering in the Summer season.  I had an unbelievable weekend.  The weather was outstanding, I spent some time at the beach, got to see a few of my old friends, and had an impromptu get together at our house.  All and all a perfect weekend.

So let's talk about this look. It is no secret that chambray is a Summer staple.  I am kind of a sucker for it.  Whether it is a dress, romper, top, I love it, and need it. When I saw this tiered dress from Target, it was a no brainer. I live in dresses and rompers during the warmer months.  This is a perfect piece that can be accessorized so many different ways. Today I chose to pair it with this adorable wet/dry pouch from Pottery Barn kids. Yes, it is to put wet swim suits in, but it is so adorable, I am using at as a clutch!

How did you spend your Memorial Day Weekend?
