May is almost over, can you believe it?! Fashion this month has been a bit of a challenge, the weather is freezing and rainy one day than 90 degrees the next! Here I put together a selection of the pieces I've been using through the transition to warmer weather, and some pieces I've been lusting after!
Vests: Vests have been big in my wardrobe all month. I've been wearing this sleeveless chambray shirt and this denim vest nonstop. These are the perfect layering pieces to add to a look without adding warmth as the weather starts to heat up! The vest is a sleeveless version of my absolute favorite denim jacket, so I was super excited to add this to my wardrobe.
High-Low Dress: Perfect for under my vests is this affordable high-low dress I found at Target. It's simple shape is jazzed up by the dramatic high-low hemline and a cutout pattern around the waist, but it's spagetti strats and cotton fabric keep it casual enough for everyday.
Sandals: I've been wearing these dirty laundry shoes nonstop, they are crazy cute and unbelievably comfortable! Instead of having a plastic or rubber thong like so many other casual summer sandals, the straps on these are made out of what feels like bathing suit material. You can find them in tons of colors online, but I always get lots of complements when I wear my black and white graphic print version out on the town!
Crossbody Bag: This hot pink Mini M.A.C. is a piece that's been on my wishlist for a while. I've been wearing an old crossbody imitation purse from target, but I wanted to include the real thing here. This bag is up really high on my wishlist! Small crossbody bags like this are perfect for summer, it gets too hot to lug a big heavy bag around on your shoulder. Also, smaller bags keep the proportion in check when you start wearing short shorts and tiny tank tops!
Bangles: If you've seen my post on bracelet stacking you'll know I'm absolutely obsessed with bangles right now. I've been building my bracelet collection with affordable pieces from forever 21, but I've had my eyes on these colorful Kate Spade bangles ever since getting into the trend. So cute and classy! You can find bangles like these on Kate Spade's website here.
I hope you enjoyed this post! Let me know in the comments below what you've been wearing this month, and leave a link to your blog so I can come check it out!
