SUMMER IN ALL BLACK

AND PIGTAILS

Missguided lace playsuit, Hinge floppy wool hat from Nordstrom, Soludos platform espadrille sandals

One of the best things to wear on a hot summer day is a playsuit or romper. I originally bought this playsuit to wear to a Vegas dayclub over my bikini but found it conveniently appropriate to wear on other occasions where the sun gleams heat. The best thing about playsuits is that it's literally one article of clothing. Throw it on and you're done getting dressed! Since rompers don't need much accessories, I found experimenting with hairstyles to be the best compliment. Beach waves, pigtails, double buns, or a side braid are all hairstyles well suited for playsuit play. Try it out! 

MESH ILLUSIONS

ACCOMPANIED BY HIDDEN LACE

Tobi mesh shift dress, Zara heels, sunglasses from Afterlife boutique

I've had this dress since April and its finally seeing light outside my closet in September. I blame the cold San Francisco weather for that. While I love this dress and the sheer details that it encompasses, I admit it's not the most movement friendly. When I raised my arms I accidentally revealed the whole bottom portion of my lace bra. Oops? Luckily, I've learned how to wear undergarments perfect for sheer articles of clothing so that exposed undergarments can appear intentional. It helps that brands such as Brandy Melville, Love & Lemons, and Out from Under carry a variety of cute bralettes too. Some of my favorites include this lace bralette, two-toned lace bra, and this scallop bra. Intimates so cute that it makes you want to purchase sheer clothing to accompany the undergarment instead! 

CLEAN WHITE KICKS

MADE FOR WALKING

Kenneth Cole Kam sneakers, Zara leather jacket, Brandy Melville sweater, Balenciaga giant city handbag

Ever since living in San Francisco I've had to swap out the heels for more accommodating flat shoes actually meant for walking. Luckily sneakers have made a huge comeback in fashion and brands such as Kenneth Cole have been upping their game to keep up with demand. I was pleasantly surprised to find these comfortable and affordable pair of white sneakers, whom I actually first saw on Kendall Jenner here. A price much more accommodating than the Saint Laurent classic court sneakers I've been eyeing. Comfortable, modern, and classic these sneakers were definitely a good buy. If you're in the market for some new sneakers below are some of my favorites for all budgets.

1. Converse Chuck Taylor low tops, $75
2. Adidas superstars, $80
3. Kenneth Cole kam sneakers, $120
