End of August Mint

mint + shorts

Have a wonderful weekend, ladies - and a happily extended one for those of us in the States! Let's try to soak in as much of summer as we still can and not wish too quickly for the cooler weather.

That really pretty crisp sunny weather and orange-y leaf display only lasts briefly, and before we all know it, our daily goal will be to pile on as much clothing as possible to keep from freezing. 

So please be outside if you can, enjoy it, and maybe get some shopping in. See yous in September!

  1. I agree! I'm tired of hearing everyone say they can't wait for Fall. Don't get me wrong, I love the Fall, but that just leads to that dreaded season, ughhh. I'm looking forward to soaking up every last second of summer as possible. I'm not ready to trade in my shorts and sandals for pants and boots yet. Love your outfit today!

  2. I want EVERYTHING you are wearing! It's really hard for me right now because it was freaking 80 all summer and now that school has started (the fall semester) it's literally 101 every day. I guess I am good with summer still being around for a while; I don't want winter to come!

  5. I love the striped shorts and the heels! I always hesitate to wear shorts with heels, but your legs are a mile long in them!

    1. I typically only wear flats, wedges or really chunky sandals with shorts. I think any bit of a slimmer heel and there's a realy fine line between looking good and looking ... not so good. ;o)

  9. Love how you paired the mint top with your striped shorts! I'm pinning this :)

    I totally agree, it will be winter before we know it and I'll be complaining about the cold. I'm definitely soaking up summer! Have a great weekend.

  19. I love this look Lisa! I got to say that I LOVE everything you wear, and I believe it's all because of you!
    The way you put clothes together, how you make a simple piece of clothe looks so good, and because of that I just ordered this top from F21 yesterday with some jewelry and the lace dress (hope it ships-the page dont even opens anymore) that its absolute lovely on you!

  21. Adorable! Love all the bling! That collar is just too cute! And I agree- sad to see August go! Here in St. Louis, we hit our hottest temps in an otherwise mild summer. It's been humid and in the upper 90s which makes it almost unbearable to be outside!! So sad!!!

    1. I know, it's been really humid here too - not the kind of warmer weather I dig, but I shouldn't complain!

  22. I just adore the outfit , as always. You do consistently succeed in doing as you state in your blog theme: you always look perfectly together, I love the striped and the tiny beads at the end of the shirt. You are right on with your comments regarding the change of seasons, too.
