Outfit: Comfortably Pulled Together

Thought I'd share two outfits today since I don't have a ton of pictures.  Summer is still in full swing here and will be for a while so you can all just shush with your "unofficial Fall" posts, haha.  

First look has kind of been my Summer uniform, I feel like. Printed shorts and a basic top. I love that this peplum top really pulls a look together! Even though I'm really just wearing sandals, shorts and a tank here it isn't AS casual as denim shorts and a cotton tee.

Again, another very comfortable look that feels pulled together. That's generally what I aim for. I don't really like to be very dressed up; I'm too practical for that and my lifestyle is very casual. But I'm also not just a "jeans and tshirt" girl.  This is just a maxi and a tshirt but the pop of blue and sheer fabric plus the knotted top all give it more visual interest.

Outfit: Red, White and Blue

My husband's long weekend started today, hooray! Not that we have any big plans. We're dogsitting this week so I think we'll probably stay at home for the 4th although I wouldn't mind sneaking off to the beach for a bit! 

Here's a red, white and blue look I wore today. I like that it's pretty subtle. I'll go all out tomorrow. haha

 Old Navy blouse, Target shorts

Outfit: Black Tank Top

These pictures are from a week or so ago. The weather was a lot cooler this week. That's kind of a fun part of Spring here though. It can be 90F or it can be 70F so you can really wear a variety of outfits day to day.  

I've been shopping at Old Navy a ton lately. It's hit or miss with things fitting me there but it's so inexpensive and yet I find the quality is better than, say, Forever 21. I like that they always have the basics but stay on trend. I love this tank top with it's higher neckline, it just gives it a bit of a different look. 

1 week until my husband and I go on vacation for 2 1/2 weeks! We're going on a West Coast road trip which we've done many times to visit family but this time we'll make more stops, spend a few days in Portland and get to visit my family in Canada! Normally we just drive to WA to visit my inlaws. So it'll be fun! We're taking our pup so I've been looking up different dog beaches, hiking trails etc so that he has fun too.
