It’s the last Wednesday of the month, which means it’s supposed to be What’s Up Wednesday. HOWEVER, this girl had too much fun at the ranch over the long weekend, and I didn’t get the post done. But great news… Shay did! So if you want to link up for What’s Up Wednesday, go check out her post HERE and link up at the bottom.
So here on the blog today, even though I didn’t get WUW done, I’m super excited about today!
Today’s post is simple. I have 5 great outfits for summer, and they are all made up of pieces that I love.
OUTFIT #1
I’m completely smitten with this pointelle sweater. The site calls this color “green finch”, but I would definitely describe this sweater as a yellow and not a green. It’s 100% cotton, lightweight, breathable, and a fun look for summer! The pointelle pattern is sweet. It also comes in pink and white. For size reference, I wear a medium.
These denim shorts have a 7″ inseam, and I love them. They’re from Wit and Wisdom, so they have the AbSolution power mesh that we’ve all grown to love, and they’ve got some stretch like we’ve become accustomed to as well. For size reference, I’m wearing my regular size 4.

OUTFIT #2
I showed this ruffle tee on Facebook when it went on sale last week, but this is the first time you are seeing it on me on the blog!
I LOVE THIS TEE. This color is so vibrant, the tee is so soft, and these ruffles! This is the only color on sale, but it also comes in black, white, turquoise, and light pink. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
And these shorts! They are a lightweight linen with pull-on styling, so they are super comfortable. The perfect rise, the perfect elastic waist with a functional drawstring, and the perfect length. The link says they are a 4″ inseam, but they definitely seem longer on. They’re classy and casual, but they can easily be dressed up or down. I have super similar ones that are neutral that I love, so the navy seemed like a no brainer. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium for a relaxed fit.

OUTFIT #3
I’ve been loving all of the tie-front tops that I’ve been seeing all over social media, but most of them show a lot more skin than this, and that’s not my vibe. This linen blend tie front top is more modest because only the top tie shows skin. It is a boxy fit, but y’all know I happen to like a boxy fit. And the fluttery peplum hem is just my style. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
I think this is the 3rd year for me to be wearing and loving these distressed denim cut-offs. However, since they are both short and distressed, there are lots of places I wouldn’t wear them. They are what I affectionately refer to as toddler shorts because of the elastic across the back. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

OUTFIT #4
This floral flutter sleeve blouse is one of my new favorite finds. I think it’s absolutely darling. The little posies that are scattered all over the top are precious, and I’m in love with the pleating and swingy fit. The banded collar, the button up-styling, and the little flutter sleeves all come together to make this great top. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
Y’all know that these ecru jeans are in my Top 3 finds for the year, and they’ve been on y’alls Top 12 list several times as well. They are actually a great year-round jean because they look awesome with booties in the fall and winter, but they look just as great with wedges and sandals in the summer! I love the fit and the frayed hem. I’m wearing my regular size 4.

OUTFIT #5
This eyelet peasant blouse is really sweet and a perfect summer blouse to style in lots of different outfits. It’s 100% cotton and lined, with the cutest little eyelet pattern. The neck is a flattering scoop neck, and I really like the little flutter sleeves. This top is airy, roomy, and kind of romantic. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
These patch pocket denim shorts are from Wit and Wisdom, our favorite denim brand, and they have the signature fit and stretch that we’ve all fallen in love with. And although you can’t see them with the shirt worn out like this, they’ve got really cute oversized patch pockets on the front that do show when you do a half tuck. For size reference, I’m wearing a 4.

That’s it for today, y’all!

I bought the toddler shorts this year, and I am a FAN! Love them! I look cute as long as I don’t show the back of my waistband, LOL!
