I have missed doing outfit posts. My blog feels scattered and I've said before that I want it to feel more curated so I think I will focus only on fashion for a while and see how that turns out. To kick off this sentiment, I wanted to post something that feels very me. Fashion is definitely resting on some trends right now and it's gotten a tad boring to see the same off-the-shoulder looks (not to say I don't love them, I just think we can challenge ourselves a little more than pairing a Bardot top with some shorts and calling it a day). Minimalism and "cool girl vibes" are "in", but I'm much more of a romantic and I like my look to reflect that sometimes.

That's also not to say that this outfit is anywhere near revolutionary, but it's something that feels personal. I'm a big advocate for wearing slips and nighties as dresses (they make me feel especially dreamy: like Wendy in Peter Pan or something) so I was very excited to find this little number at the thrift store so many years ago. It's an easy piece in a gorgeous color that makes me feel free and flowy. In this heat, I want nothing to do with trends--just make me feel like I won't die of heat exhaustion and I'm happy.
