Layers for days

It's July 1st. I might need a moment to fully take that in, because I'm not really sure how a whole month has slipped by already, however in my defense, Mother Nature has been doing her best to make it feel as little like summer as possible.

I spent more of June in denim and sweaters than I feel I can remember. It was wet, chilly, and dreary. Okay, not everyday, but a lot of them! July needs to turn things around, and I won't be happy until everyone I know is complaining about how hot it is.

  15. Oh, we had the same here in Ireland. No fun at all. Especially be ill in summer time with bad cold. I don't even remember when I have been ill in summer time. That just shows.
    Yet you always look wonderful and stylish no matter what weather your having. Love this relaxed and put together look. Just looking at your gorgeous leopard print shoes makes me even more to find asap pair for myself.

  18. The solution is simple - come to Vancouver! We're all suffering with a major heat wave here and, after complaining all winter about rain, complaining just as bitterly about how hot we are now. To be fair, I'm actually far more uncomfortable now than I was in winter. You can escape rain by coming inside, whereas the heat is everywhere. At the moment, I'm incredibly envious of the fact that you can comfortably wear anything other than the shortest shorts and dresses. But I understand how frustrating it must be for you, who spent a miserably cold winter dreaming of summer, only to have it come and find yourself still wearing a coat. It is a very cute coat, though!

  24. We always have really cool weather in June too except without the rain. This year, the day it was officially summer we got hot weather. It's been so humid, I have been in air conditioning all day long. Love this outfit on you!

  30. It's actually been gone for two days for Alabama right now... and I love it. So give me all your dreary weather. Hopefully you'll get some of that sunshine in return, too. ANywho, however you're managing layers right now is unfathomable to me, but you look chic as heck. Loving that green jacket, Lydia!

  31. June was really wet and dreary here too for a lot of it--not very summer-like! I don't mind the cooler temperatures, but I'm tired of the rain. I love this look--the jacket is laid-back and casual but those heels add some glam. Love it!
