Colorful stripes

Here, I wore a fun, ruffly, multi-color striped wrap dress I picked up recently for a super discounted price! (Say that three times fast!) I've wanted this for a long time and finally found my size. With this many colors, there are so many possibilities for coordination, but this time, I highlighted the marigold with sandals, a handbag and tassel earrings. I added navy rose earrings, a coral palm leaf ring, coral beaded bangles, a coral beaded necklace and a yellow, fuchsia and white beaded necklace. Next time, I'll probably try more coral accessories instead of marigold. For makeup: coral lip crayon and marigold and navy shadows with navy eyeliner.

Ombre

I wore this pastel ombre kimono with olive green high waist pants, a matching baby blue sleeveless lace bib-top and chunky heel sandals.

(Instead of blue tassel hoops, I went with the pink acrylic since they're gold and would match the ring.) For makeup: pink, light and dark blue shadows, blue liner, and light pink lipstick.

HOT pink

Two outfits- one color! At the very beginning of the summer, I wore a hot pink, geometric-print tube top (are these even still fashion-worthy?) with cargo jogger capris (not sure what else to call these) and florescent pink flat sandals. This was a chill outfit while I was running errands, so just threw in some peach stud earrings. 

The other outfit was for work and, boy did I get a lot of compliments on this top! I picked it up recently and was excited to wear it- a high-low, mock-neck, geomtric-print white and florescent pink top, with black ankle pants (a different pair) of hot pink flat sandals. (Insert eye-roll here. Yes, I have two pairs of flat hot pink sandals, but it's a long story.) With this outfit, I added a gold, double-tiered v-shape necklace and gold triangle studs and gold bar earrings to go with the shapes in the top. For makeup: black shadow and hot pink lip gloss.

Coral Reef

Last month sometime, I wore this coral waist-tie blazer with thin, black dress pants and coral cutout, tie-up stiletto sandals. For the drive into the office, I wore flat coral and teal T-sandals, which are the inspiration for wearing teal accessories with this outfit- a teal beaded and silver statement necklace, teal bangles, a teal tank, and teal shadow and eyeliner. I also added a coral beaded necklace, coral bangles, a coral palm leave ring, and black, teal, orange and fuchsia doily earrings and coral lip crayon.

Don't ask why

I wanted to squeeze in one more Patriotic outfit (not sure why I'm even wearing these colors this year) l. I hadn't gotten to wear this blue, color-block, high-low sun dress yet, that I scored at the end of the season last year. With it, I wore red chunky heel sandals and matching tassel earrings as well as blue rose studs. For work, I threw on a white moto jacket. Makeup: navy liner and shadow, and red lipstick.
