Recently, I found a cobalt blue rope necklace (found it at Target & know its on sale right now at the store)  – it makes me want to be on a sail boat.  I simply adore it.  In seeking other types of rope/nautical inspired pieces, I came across these:
Maria Francesca Pepe rope necklace, $225 /Sabrina Dehoff navy jewelry, $240 /

I could not resist borrowing a line from Lady G herself.  But is a summer wardrobe complete with out a wedge sandal?  I think not… Here are some amazing ones I adore:
Pierre Hardy platform sandals / Miu Miu high heel pumps / Kate Spade wedge heels / Wedge sandals / Vera Wang platform sandals / Dolce Vita wedge sandals / Steve Madden sandals

With so many sunny days, its natural to look up.  The beautiful weather is inspiring me to combine my yellows & blues.  Accenting these with neutral bag, sandals and jewelry.  Here is what is in this set:

ISSA London slimming dress / Stella McCartney embellished top / Ted Baker stripe tee, $70 / J.Crew long skirt / Mango crochet pants, $37 / Michael Kors high heel sandals / J.Crew j crew handbag / Rose gold necklace / MICHAEL Michael Kors wrap bracelet

I am ready for some fireworks, how about you?  Its a perfect holiday to play with pattern mixing … stars & stripes are made for each other. And as we are talking about getting a dog here – because life isn’t busy enough! – I could not resist this puppy and his oh-so-patriotic bow tie.  Too precious.  Hope you like this…
