Memorial Day looks to take you through the summer


To me Memorial Day Weekend feels like the unofficial start to summer – which means BBQ’s, trips to the beach and just an excuse to be outside as much as possible. It’s also a great excuse to bust out that red, white and blue because from now until labor day we are celebrating all things USA! 


Sometimes I wear the colors together and feel like the American Flag or makes me think of the scene from Legally Blonde 2  – so in an effort to not wear all the colors together but tying them in appropriately – here are some of my favorite picks for Memorial Day that will take you through the entire summer! 




With Old Navy having their 50% off Memorial Day Sale – it’s hard to pass up some of these items, especially this linen cami that comes out to be $12 and make it a set with these shorts for $10!





A few years ago I had adress super similar to this off the shoulder top, but unfortunately got a stain on it and haven’t been able to find anything similar to it since, but this is the closest I’ve found! I just love the detailing! 


I love chambray and I love rompers – only fitting we make into one

I have these jeans from Ann Taylor and after trying on close to a dozen pairs of white jeans, these are the only ones that I’ve found that actually don’t accentuate the flaws if you know what I mean! 

Nothing more Memorial Day through Labor Day appropriate than this white pom pom cover up

My favorite purchase from two years ago was my denim jacket – It comes in handy in the mornings when it’s still a bit chilly out and at night when the sun has gone down! 

Pleated lace-trimmed shorts – is there anything better? I also love that they aren’t fitted in the thighs so you could feel comfortable wearing them during the day and night! 

SHOP THE POST

Are you planning to do any red, white and blue shopping this weekend? What’s on your Memorial Day shopping list?

    That meme is perfection! I thought of you last night since Legally Blonde was on CMT. Even though I own the dvd, I always find myself watching it when it's on tv. Just bend… and snap! So many great finds! I've been collecting so many off the shoulder tops and dresses this year, definitely a trend I jumped fully on board with. And I may need that white cover up too! <3
