Hey Loves,
In a recent closet dive, I came across this summery two-piece lemon print set that I don't wear nearly enough 😲 The crop top is accompanied by a midi-length skirt, both have amazing ease of wear. Although this set sold out rather quickly, I've linked a comparable skirt above.
Fruity prints are the epitome of summer fashion, I wish that this set also came in peach and pineapple 😉
Until next time,
Xx

Hey Babes,
How are things going for you? We've been in a near record-breaking heatwave for the past week. Not only are the temperatures on the high end, we're also getting a rare dose of seemingly intense humidity which feels like 😓😓😓
According to current forecasts, we will finish off the month on a high note. Summer is historically my favorite season, but this intensity has me dreaming of fall days, LOL!
Today's look features two shade cousins, red + orange. This is a slightly different palette approach to my main steady, monochrome. I love how well these two hues bounce off of each other! This encourages me to pair them together more often in the future, preferably under cooler temps 💗
Until next time,
Xx

Wondering what to wear this weekend? I have the perfect fit for you 😉 I'm a recent convert to the embellished denim trend, (first pair blogged HERE) now it feels like I just can't get enough of them! The sparkling pair that I am wearing in today's post totally reminds me of the children's lullaby 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star'. Never heard of it? No worries, here's a brief quote:
"Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky."
LOL! This pair is so cute, but note that the sizing is generous as they have quite a bit of stretch. I recommend sizing down by one, as they will stretch out a bit after one wear 😉 
Honestly, I don't feel like these pictures do the pretty little dots justice...It was so bright/sunny outside when I shot this, you can't truly see how much they really sparkle- by way of white pearls and silver rhinestones. Anywho, for a super chill day (including a run to the office) I paired them with a updated ruffled white shirt, an amazingly long cape (available HERE + save w/ code "inmyjoi20" at checkout), and the feathered mules that have taken my wardrobe by storm...
Until next time Loves,
Xx

For the Love of Leaves

Bandeau top & wide leg pants: c/o HERE| Mules: Similar HERE & HERE| Suede bag: Zara, old

I have a thing for leafy prints. Like seriously.... I L❤VE THEM! When this kimono came by way of a recent GB shipment, I knew right away that it was a #BorrowNBuy. To learn more about GB see previous blog posts HERE & HERE.
If I totally lacked all self-control, my entire loft would look be reminiscent of the amazon rainforest -plus a few cacti for good measure of course, LOL! For instance, I have been eying this credenza (oh this one is nice too) for my bedroom for quite some time... My bedroom walls are green, very close to the shade of my purse. My inspiration for its recent refresh (currently ongoing) was a gorgeous palm print wallpaper pattern I saw on Pinterest. I have a ways to go to reach absolute completion, I'd love to find a nice heavy fabric in the exact print of this kimono with a white background to have curtains made...That reminds me, I need to carve out some time to make my way down to the fabric district...
Until next time Babes,
Xx

The Green Room

Sunnies: c/o HERE| Necklace: HERE| Wood watch: c/o HERE| Cargo vest: c/o HERE
Culotte jumpsuit: c/o HERE| Leather mules: Sold out, similar HERE

Today's post features my very first time styling clothing from Yours Clothing.  They reached out to me about a month ago, I was excited as I've seen the brand on the scene for a while but hadn't had the opportunity to sample any of their deigns for myself. I selected a few pieces perfect for Summer 2017. Today's look was styled around a YOURS tropical print culotte jumpsuit.
Can we please start with this print?! 😍😍😍 
PSA: I'm slightly obsessed with the color green (fast fact - my bedroom is a super lush green color) and anything reminiscent of tree leaves is a win-win in my book! 
I love how this print takes on a dark floral approach, but I can equally see and appreciate it with a crisp white backdrop versus black😉
Culottes are a great alternative to shorts, full skirts, and pants during warm weather months. This jumpsuit is lightweight, and super comfortable on a hot day. Thus far, I've worn it to the office and to the beach for a leisurely stroll. Wouldn't you know it, I received a number of compliments 😊
Style note: To brighten up the print, I have also styled this jumpsuit with a sleeveless white duster & matching white head wrap. 
Until next time,
Xx

FESTIVAL SEASON HAS OFFICIALLY ARRIVED BABES!!! Indeed it has become synonymous with spring, and with it comes denim pieces, flowers of every variety, tie die, fringe, poms, tassels, and all things bohemian💗  
What has been dubbed the ‘most stylish festival of the year’ actually kicks off today… 
It’s 💥💥💥C O A C H E L L A time💥💥💥
Thanks to my friends at TORRID, I’m ready to kick off festival season in style!!!

Oftentimes festival street style seems somewhat impractical for the everyday woman.  I love that this look and the one to follow (stay tuned) contains pieces that are totally interchangeable and ideal for warm weather wear in general. Like seriously, I cannot wait to style these pieces again, and here's why:

• Top- A fabulous peasant style blouse,crisp white with subtle print, trumpet sleeves, worn on or offf the shoulders
• Denim bermuda shorts- Fits your curves life a glove
• Black fringe purse- Seriously this bag can go with just about everything
• Leather mules- Mules/sildes have made a major comeback, these are genuine leather with a wood sole and guarantee comfort + style

Do share Love, what’s your favorite thing about festival season fashion?!

Until next time,

XO
