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! 😋

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.

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.

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).

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.

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.

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.
