Monthly Style Diary: August 2019

See all the outfits I wore the month of August. From what I wore to an art museum to what I wore on a date night.

MONDAY, AUGUST 5TH

I wore this outfit for dinner at Oishi after work with my husband Monday night. We typically don’t go out during the week, but we decided to do something different and get out and enjoy the nice weather. I ordered fried rice with chicken and pineapples (first time trying that) and it was absolutely delicious! 😋

Outfit Details: J.Jill Top (similar here & here), Chicwish Skirt c/o, Modmopolitan Earrings c/o (similar here), Kate Spade Necklace, Vintage Purse (similar here), Dolce Vita Sandals (similar here, & here)

MONDAY, AUGUST 5th

On Monday I posted 5 ways to style a wrap dress. I love wearing wrap dresses because I find them so versatile. Not only are they comfortable, adjustable, and chic, but can also be worn open like a kimono.

Outfit Details: Express Dress (similar here, here, & here), BCBG Purse (similar here) c/o Gordmans, SOJOS Sunglasses, Dressbarn Earrings (similar here), Lauren Conrad Shoes

MONDAY, AUGUST 12TH

I typically don’t wear rompers preferring jumpsuits instead. That got me thinking as to why I love jumpsuits so much (jumpsuits have pants, rompers have shorts) and so I decided to find a romper with long sleeves to balance out the shorts. I also love this one because of the ruffled shorts making this romper look more like a dress. You can read the full blog post here.

OutfitDetails: Chicwish Romper c/o. Modmopolitan Earrings c/o (similar here, last seen here), Bella Ryann Bracelets In Gold c/o, Vintage Bag (similar here), Urban Outfitters Sandals (similar here)

THURSDAY, AUGUST 15TH

On Thursday I went to TK Salon to get a trim & to add highlights around my face. This is my hair before and the picture below shows my hair after.

Outfit Details: Pink Rose Top c/o Gordmans (similar here), American Eagle Shorts (similar here), Dolce Vita Sandals (similar here)

SATURDAY, AUGUST 17TH

When deciding what to wear on a recent trip to the St. Louis Art Museum I chose to keep my outfit dressy casual in a button front chambray dress, ballet flats, and this adorable wrap sweater. And when it comes to activities where I’ll be doing a lot of walking I prefer to have a purse that’s hands free like this cross-body bag (similar here).

Outfit Details: Chicwish Sweater c/o, Urban Outfitters Dress (similar here & here) & Shoes (similar here), Zaful Sunglasses c/o (similar here), Michael Kors Purse (similar here), Kate Spade Necklace

SUNDAY, AUGUST 18th

For church on Sunday I wore this adorable top I found on Amazon for less than $18 plus it also comes in pink! I paired with my favorite jean purchase of the year these H&M jeans. Although they’re no longer available in this color, you can buy them in black or white.

Outfit Details: Amazon Top, Gordamns Cami c/o (similar here), H&M Jeans, ToGoGo Purse (similar here), Apt. 9 Wedges (similar here)

MONDAY, AUGUST 19TH

Leopard print is surprisingly versatile. Thanks to the neutral brown and black spots leopard print goes with just about everything. I chose to buy this dress because I knew I could wear it so many different ways including as a skirt. See the full post here.

OutfitDetails: Chicwish Dress c/o (last seen here), Elementz Top (similar here, last seen here), Modmopolitan Earringsc/o, ToGoGo Purse (similar here), Bella Ryann Bracelets in gold c/o, Steve Madden Heels (similar here, & here)

THURSDAY, AUGUST 22ND

I wore this outfit to a recent coffee date with my new friend Caitlin, a local blogger I met on instagram. It was so great to finally chat in person over peanut butter smoothies & coffee at Lodgic on Thursday morning.

Outfit Details: American Eagle Tank Top (similar here), H&M Jeans, Forever21 Sandals (similar here), Modmopolitan Purse c/o, Kate Spade Necklace

MONDAY, AUGUST 26th

One of my favorite things to wear in the summer is linen. I love this linen tank top and built my look around it. Also this scarf I found matched my skirt too perfectly not to wear it. See how I tied it in my hair here.

Outfit Details: J.Jill Tank Top (similar here), Gap Skirt (similar here), American Eagle Belt, Scarf (similar here), SOJOS Sunglasses, Necklace (similar here), Vintage Purse (similar here), Lauren Conrad Heels (on sale!)
