Where does time gooooo? I struggle to keep up with anything in my life now days. But  I do have good things going on, so I shouldn't complain. This top and bright jacket are a good thing. They are cheery and made the perfect pieces to keep me up on a tired Friday last week.

What picks you up?

Remember this tee from the post two days ago? The same day that I wore it with the skirt, I had a cook out to go to that afternoon. I paired the same top with floral shorts and sandals, and I was ready to go. I went with pink accessories for a little more fun and to balance the navy. And I'll admit I was skeptical of these shorts when I first bought them, but they have been worn lots this summer. I still have a few more ways in mind to wear them.

Here is to hoping that I stay well today. The hubby has picked up a stomach virus and was sick all afternoon yesterday.
 
I loved how this outfit turned out. I took three separate pieces and blended them into one outfit. I saw a friend in Belk the day I wore this and she commented on how well I "mixed and matched" clothing. Nothing in this really matches but it works. If you are tempted to wear black pants with an outfit like this, I recommend you substitute grey and see how you like it.

Super quick post because I'm running late. I had an awesome but busy weekend.
I have always worn this skirt in a super casual way before and never thought of wearing it with heels or "dressed up." Inspiration came from Megan's Moda. I reversed the striped piece and went with a striped tee and solid maxi skirt. I loved the result. I didn't wear the floppy straw hat but tried it on for kicks while taking pictures.

Here are two other casual ways I've worn this skirt:
