As I mentioned last week - and pretty much any holiday - we have 2 different celebrations with each side of the family for holidays so we aren't rushing to two houses on the same day. For Easter my Dad's side of the family came to my parents house on Saturday for a lovely dinner. The weather was pretty gross so I had to take photos inside. Luckily I have a great photographer who can weather any situation ;)

I wore the same jacket for both of my outfits but styled it with different shoes and dresses. For the first day I wore a long sleeve silk dress because I knew it would be the cooler day of the weekend. I opted to not wear tights because I'm sick of having to cover up my legs for cold weather. I like to wear this particular dress with my fun Lanvin pumps. Such a gorgeous color that matches the dress perfectly.

Here's the first of my two Thanksgiving outfits. My mom hosted for her side of the family for the first time this year. Normally my Grandma does it but she decided to take a year off and let me Mom handle the stress. I wore pants for this celebration because I knew my cousin's 2 year old would be coming and we like to play on the floor. I wanted to wear different shoes but it was really cold so I went with function over fashion. Not that these boots aren't fashionable.

I've been slacking on blog pictures lately thanks to either killer heat or rainy days. This Summer has definitely been difficult for blogging.  Luckily we had a stretch of good weather so I was able to get a few outfits shot for this week and next.

I've been meaning to wear this sweater for a while but the weather never seemed to cooperate. I was originally going to wear it with pants but decided to go for shorts instead since it's still pretty warm. I don't think these shorts have appeared much on the blog this Summer but they still remain one of my most worn pieces on super hot days. (Excuse the wrinkles in the shorts, I had been sitting a lot, haha!)


Turtleneck Tank: Highline Collective (Lord & Taylor),  Shorts: Banana Republic (Clinton Crossing), Slip-On Sandals: BCBGeneration 'Yerra' Slip-on Sneaker (DSW), Sunglasses: Gucci, Eyeglasses chain: Tinksky (Amazon)

This dress is perfect for scorching hot days when I want to wear more than just short shorts and a tank top. The knit is so thin that it's like I'm wearing a cloud.

Striped Knit Dress: Lauren Ralph Lauren (Lord & Taylor), Sandals: Ancient Greek Sandals 'Clio', Bag: Tommy Hilfiger c/o Clinton Crossing, Sunglasses: Michael Kors (Marshalls)

I love these sandals. They were the first pair of Ancient Greek Sandals I bought back in 2013 when they only had about 5 styles. Now there are TONS to choose from. I have 6 pairs and would kill to have more. I usually buy a new pair each year but I'm trying to resist this year. Perhaps if I find a pair on sale!
