I hope you all had a great weekend!  The weather was perfect here and as usual, we were out enjoying it!

Even though the calendar has yet to say it, summer is officially upon us.  And what better way to salute it than with white eyelet.

Even when it's in the mid 80's, it's still around 68 to 70 degrees in most indoor venues.  And instead of a cardigan, I layered a belted denim shirt over my dress.

The back of this dress was is one of the reasons I was initially drawn to it.

As was the the curved high-low hem.

Oh... and just to show you what a difference a year makes, here's my darling Isabella!  Almost 1 1/2 now!

Can I just tell y'all how much this sleeveless blazer has become one of my favorite things to wear?!  Oh... I did... my bad.

Well, I'm wearing it again.  To my chagrin, it has at least been a week since I wore this last... I know that's not a long time, but I really want to wear this thing everyday!  Have you ever made (or bought) something that wasn't majorly "special", but you just kind of fell in love with it and wanted to wear it often?  Well, that's how I feel about this sleeveless blazer.  I've decided that I MUST make a white one too.

And another thing that I'm loving right now is McCall's 6707.  I knew I'd want to make these over again and I had this most amazing lightweight wool gabardine from Mood Fabrics in my stash.  It's great because these pants are light enough to wear all throughout the summer and they also have stretch.  And who doesn't love the comfort that a stretch woven offers?

One of my new Spring polishes:  Essie "Madison Ave-Hue".

Wearing:  sleeveless blazer:  Simplicity 1756, or similar here and here; tank (old), similar here and here; pink trousers: McCall's 6707; black raffia and leather clutch (old); shoes: Shoemint.com.

Boyfriend jeans have to be the most comfortable thing ever.  I found these at TJ Maxx at a RIDICULOUS markdown.  They were regular $295.00.  YIKES!  I got them for a mere red ticketed $39.00.  They were perfectly faded and I added more distressing to them.  

They are capri length with side slits.  And did I mention that they're comfortable? LOL  They have a great relaxed fit,  the antithesis of skinnies!

The way that I decided to style mine was to wear them with a pretty, frilly peplum top and pointy-toe metallic silver pumps.

These shoes will be my new neutral!

Wearing:  peplum top: New Look 6130, similar here and here; jeans are Escada Sport from TJ Maxx.  Similar here and here. Pumps are from ShoeMint.com.

I've been so busy in the last week that I haven't had time to do proper "What I'm Wearing" posts.  I really, really hate doing "look at me" wordless pictures only posts (even though that formula works for some bloggers quite successfully).  I personally feel that MY blog posts should be accompanied by some sort of text.  I owe you faithful readers that much!  I like to leave the quick and dirtiness to Instagram!

So, let's get started...

My favorite blue nail polish!  Butter London "Blagger".

Again wearing the black peplum top.  This top has the versatility of a t-shirt.  Probably why I love it so much.  And my Vogue 1039 red cigarette pants.  

My house is pretty empty and quiet this week because of Spring Break.  And I'm pretty happy that it'll be a rainy weekend so I can hideout in my sewing room!
