White Out: Dog Days of Summer

Today is my last day off before I head back to work.  I didn't really get a "summer" this year as once I was done with the school year, I had one day off before teaching summer school.  This year, two weeks was enough time for me to clean out my closet and sell/donate half of my clothes, tidy up the house, make it to the beach once and a pool, finally complete The Sopranos and binge watch two seasons of House of Cards.  We are also currently dog sitting my husband's dog, Jazz, who stayed living with his mother when we got married.  So technically, my summer was filled with dog days (you can find the original meaning of the phrase HERE).   I have pretty much been living in all white the past few months and with the purging of my wardrobe, I made sure to keep simple staples with clean lines. 

Cheers to the end of my dog days of summer!

Lovefool

Lately I have been on a bit of a spending freeze as we had some car problems a couple of months ago that cost us more than we would have preferred to spend on a car and we are taking a very budgeted mini-vacation in a week to NYC! But when I popped into Urban a few weeks ago and saw this dress, I had to get it.  It is perfectly 90s, reflects my current obsession with roses, the fit is so flattering and when I look at it, Lovefool by The Cardigans plays in my head. It is the perfect dress to throw on for any occasion (even walking Finn around the neighborhood) and will most certainly be a summer staple.

Spotted: Madewell Monday

Happy Monday!!! I am extra happy today because the husband and I finally got our anniversary plans squared away since it is less than one month away!!! We are keeping it simple and planning on having a relaxing weekend "staycation" (kind of).  After all, we are going to Boston and NY in June to visit family, friends and to attend the Jazz Age Lawn Party!!!  I am so excited for our long-overdue vacation time coming up, but in the mean time, it's back to the grind.  
These Madewell looks are inspiring me for the rest of Spring into summer and here's to hoping I can buy a cute outfit with polka dots pre-anniversary weekend. =)

Alexa Chung for Madewell

Today is the official release of the Alexa Chung for Madewell fall collection.  She has been my style icon for over 2 years now and I am excited I can actually afford some things (unlike the Alexa Mulberry bag seen here). I LOVE the entire line, but here are a few of my favorites.

The carine dress

She is so pretty!

















My favorite outfit! The thora cords and
graham crewneck sweater.




















You can view the entire collection HERE.  Happy browsing!
