Almost-Summer Stripes

Two posts in one day?! I know, I am totally trying to make up for not updating over the past couple of weeks. Plus, I have spent the entire day working on my final paper for my history of photography class, and I decided to take a long break—for my sanity—and do a couple posts!

It’s already heating up in Arizona, which means that this summer’s going to be a hot one. A week and a half ago we were experiencing temperatures around 105 degrees. Although it has settled back down to the high 80’s since then, it’s supposed to get hot again this weekend. I’ve got family coming into town from Washington, which means there will hopefully be lots of time spent by the pools drinking my parents’ delicious margaritas. And, of course, wearing this comfy summer dress!

Dress: Target. Cardigan: Old Navy. Sandals: Target.

This dress is really thin cotton, which means it’s perfect for hot days. It’s a quick and comfortable outfit to throw on for just about any summertime activity. Of course, the cardigan will go as soon as it gets hot again, but for now it’s just right!

The pool is almost at the perfect temperature to start swimming—not too cold, but not bathwater like it gets in the middle of summer. As soon as school and finals are done, I’ve decided I’m coming home from work every night and going straight into the pool!

Also, I have summer nails!! I want to wear bright colors all the time now. On my fingers I used Essie Bachelorette Bash, Ulta Sweetheart Pink, and an orange OPI that I’m not sure of the name of, and on my toes I used OPI Mermaid Tears.

Check out my previous post for how I curled my hair with a curling wand!

And of course, here’s my smart cat—hiding from the heat in the shade.
