Guest Blogger - Jenni of Found in my Closet

Hi all!
My name is Jenni (of Found in my Closet) and I have the privilege of filling in for Diana today!  A huge thanks to her for asking me to be one of her guest bloggers this week while she moves.  Hope it's all going ok Diana!!

Today I thought I'd talk a little bit about dressing for summer...since it's finally feeling like the season has actually arrived here in the bay area...it was 93 degrees today!  There are so many options for daily wear in the summertime...skirts, cropped jeans, shorts, maxi dresses...the possibilities are endless!  I thought I would share three looks I'm loving for summer right now...so here we go!

1.  When I think of summertime I immediately think of a crisp, white top with brightly colored accessories.  It's a fabulous go-to look for daytime and can easily translate into an evening look if you change out your shoes and amp up the jewelry.  Here's is a look that I'm in love with right now for summer:




This look is perfect because it's semi-casual, yet looks so pulled together!  I would definitely wear it to meet my girlfriends for lunch, I'd wear it to a park date and I'd wear it just to run errands...super casual, comfortable, yet totally put together.

2. One of my favorite things to wear in the heat is a skirt.  I love this denim skirt I found in the sale room at Anthropologie a while back for only $39.95.  I like this skirt because it isn't your typical pencil shape skirt...it has a little "poof" to it to give it more of an interesting look.  I live in a city that's pretty windy so having a heavier fabric like denim in the wind is a huge plus.  I plan to wear this skirt with a patterned top and brightly colored short-sleeve cardi along with some wedge sandals soon...doesn't this just scream "summer" to you?


3. My last favorite look for summer includes white jeans...I am all about them right now!  You can wear skinnies rolled up or wide leg jeans...any variation of the white jeans works.  Here is an outfit I just wore last week...I went a little nautical with it: 


So those are just a few of my favorite things to wear in the summer right now.  Do you have a favorite outfit you wear over and over again?  Do you even bother getting dressed up in the summertime or do you just live in your swimsuit?   Trust me, sometimes I'm tempted to do the latter!

I hope you are all finding ways to beat the heat and enjoying your summer! =)
