Happy July, ladies - I hope you all had a fantastic past couple of days!
It was a casual but fun Independence Day long weekend for me, I went up
north to visit some family and friends. There were loads of grilled
goodies, fuzzy animals, much laughing, my first home fireworks and
unfortunately a whole lotta rain. Plus copious over-use of Off! kept the mosquitoes at bay.
How were your weekends?
Top: F21 striped denim (sim pricey, floral, solid)
Shorts: J.Crew factory chino (worn here - retail version, sim)
Necklace: C.Wonder (sim, round)
Bracelets: J.Crew (sim), C. Wonder pave initial, Yunikelley via Etsy (sim, sim)
Bag: Longchamp (worn here - sim, sim, sim)
Shoes: Artisan by Clarks kyna wise (worn here - sim, sim, sim)
First time we bought some fireworks for at-home blowing up. I played Fire Marshall Lisa and doled out sparklers, lit bottle rockets and reminded people about fireworks safety - i.e., light it and run!
Fun was had by all with only minor shrapnel damage. Afterwards I wish we had bought more!

Some All-American photography was perused.

You always finds THE best stuff at Forever 21! Great shirt. Love it with the pink! We celebrated our son's 5th bday and a good ol 4th celebration with family, food and at-home fireworks that was slightly scary at times! (pyro husbands and uncles combined. We all moved back 10 yds)
ReplyDeleteThat's what we did - most of us were safely away on the deck.
DeleteCute casual outfit, Lisa!
ReplyDeleteSounds perfect! I love that top - perfect for summer. :) We spent a lot of time by the pool and at the beach - it was a much-needed break.
ReplyDeletep.s. - there's a Lilac Bijoux Giveaway on the blog today! See Mo Go.
How cute is that dog photo! I literally melted! I really like your outfit, and I happen to own similar pieces, so maybe I'll copycat you! Also, I posted a whole bunch of my pictures from Salzburg, if you wanna come take a look! ;)

I love your shirt! Go F21. That's why I still hang around there from time to time. I've had a few good summer weekends. Lake, pool, zoo!
ReplyDeleteEvery once in a while, F21 has some winners that you don't have to be 18 to wear.

What a fun take on the denim shirt! Looks like you had a great 4th! Growing up in Hawaii - it was like war zone around 4th of July & New Years. There's so much smoke that you can't see a thing. I miss those days!

The amount of smoke really amazed me!
DeleteYou look so awesome in those shorts!! I love them with the striped denim shirt, which is much more cute and unique than a plain chambray shirt!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun weekend! I play fire marshall too...ready to go with the hose (just in case!). I also love how you styled the pink shorts. So cute!

I love everything about your weekend except for the mosquitoes. Well... a lot of rain is no good for me either. Cute outfit and fuzzy friend.
ReplyDeleteI guess the good of it is that I've yet to get a sun burn this summer.
Deletegreat outfit, perfect for summer days! hugs from germany :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute combo, really like it! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely combination, it looks great!

Sounds like a fun 4th! My neighbors were lighting fireworks like crazy and I kept waiting for the cops to come but they got away with it.

The neighbors of a friend of mine did their fireworks on the 5th - guess they took advantage of all the fireworks stores 50% off sales!
DeleteSounds like you had a fantastic 4th! :)

Those shorts are so dressy - I was just about to buy a pair of those shorts on JCrew but they did not have the color i wanted...
ReplyDeleteVery very cute! I actually thought the top was J Crew. Glad you had a great 4th of July!

I loooove this shirt! It's so unique, don't think I've ever seen chambray done like like that before. I didn't have any fireworks this year... maybe it's not too late to get some sparklers? Actually, I don't even know if those are legal in the city... yeah. Maybe not!
ReplyDeleteglad you had a fun fourth! love your pink shorts!

I can't wait to read more! And I love your chocolate lab - we have two lab babies too! Susan charminglucy.com
ReplyDeleteLove your outfit. As I have said on your post with the striped shorts: you rock this look. Bag, shoes, blouse... they go so well with the shorts. This outfit also gets a 10 from me. (As if you would care..haha, but still.)
ReplyDeleteThat striped denim top is incredible! Love it!
