A color combination I’ve been wearing repeatedly this summer is the ever-classic blue and white. I immediately loved Pantone’s 2016 colors of the year because they’re both soft hues and I’ve always been drawn to pastel colors in my own style (like this pleated skirt and this pink and mint combo). I’ve been thrilled to see all of the pieces coming out in these colors, like these blue suede sandals that I couldn’t buy quick enough and this blush colored dress.
I bought this striped linen shirt and these white linen seaside pants from J. Crew, and paired with my grey striped pumps in ‘fog’, I felt like I should be shopping along the pier in Maine or Nantucket; but since I was still home in Austin, it also worked as a great casual Friday outfit. After work Blake and I headed down to Guadalupe and found the cutest ice cream and cookie shop, moojo, so we stopped in for a cool treat.
Afterwards we walked along the drag and found a hidden spot behind some retail shops with a coffee truck, planters that doubled as seats, and a stage being set up for a band. We relaxed for a bit and enjoyed an iced coffee on the hot summer evening before heading home for dinner.
Don’t forget that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is open to everyone today! Be sure to get your favorite fall items on sale before everything’s gone!
