The return of Summer means my boyfriend jeans are back in business. They are super destroyed so I can only wear them when it's warm-ish, otherwise I'll get too cold. I've been looking for a pair of dark washed boyfriend jeans with no rips, but it's hard to find exactly what I want.  I wore this over the weekend to go shopping with my parents. I bought a very odd assortment of items: a tall accent cabinet with a peacock on it (only $20!,) some new candles from Yankee Candle and a bunch of plants for a mini garden my mom and I are making at my cousin's house (aka my house.)

I'm hopeful that this rainy weather is finally coming to an end (although there is rain in the forecast this week) so I've decided to round up some of my favorite swimsuits!  I don't really "need" any new ones, but I still desperately want a We Are Handsome one-piece...maybe if the one below goes a teeny bit more on sale. Let's start off with one-pieces!

We Are Handsome (on sale!),  Tory Burch, MINKPINK

Next up, bikini's of course!

Melissa Odabash, We Are Handsome (on sale!), Marc by Marc Jacobs top & Marc by Marc Jacobs bottom (on sale for $48; $24 each piece!)

And third, the mixes...monokinis, tankinis, vintage style, etc.

Rachel Comey, Old Navy, J.Crew rash guard and J.Crew bottoms

P.S. I confess: I bought the Marc Jacobs bikini! It was only $48 instead of $170 AND is purple AND is reversible, how could I resist?! (I had wanted another version of this suit last year, but it's sold out now.

This is how you'll find me on most of my days off, sitting on the couch with my Mac watching TV (now accompanied by Layla.) I lead a very exciting life, no? These photos are from Friday, I had the day off and spent my morning watching tv (Gilmore Girls for those of you who can tell from the screenshot.)  It was an icky, rainy morning so I didn't really feel like going anywhere.  After that I headed to my parents house and my mom, dad and I had tons of junk food for dinner.  Fried shrimp, french fries, biscuits, milkshakes! And then brownies for dessert...yummm!

As you can see I go with very comfortable outfits, if I get dressed at all (which I obviously did this day.) What do you usually do/wear on your off days?

Sweater: Madewell (Shopbop), Pants: Maison Scotch c/o Aritzia and Lucky

Another gross, rainy week. Will it ever end?!  We had one nice day this week (Wednesday) but the rest was pretty nasty. I wouldn't mind it being chilly if it wasn't raining, I dislike rain unless I can sit at home curled up with a blanket and a movie.  This week I have a three day weekend, woo! Hopefully I will do something fun today, but I may end up sitting on the couch all day with our (meaning my cousins') new adopted doggy, Layla.  I'm not really a dog person because 1. I'm scared of them and 2. don't like jumping/barking/licking and such but she has been pretty good so far.  She knows not to jump on me but has been trying to put her paws on me while I sit, which is cute but can lead to her jumping and trying to sit on me so I constantly have to say "NO!" and put her feet back on the ground.  

In a fun bit of news, I entered Monday's outfit in Current/Elliott's Instagram contest and won one of their daily $50 gift cards! I can't wait to spend it! I'm deciding between 2 of their "The Skinnies" jeans.  Either the "Blue Note" (to replace my Free People jeans that are dying) or the "Loved Destroy." I'm leaning toward the regular ones because they'll be in style longer and they're cheaper, but the destroyed pair looks so cool! Which would you do?

Monday: Blouse: Equipment "Sophie" (Sample Sale), Jenas: Current/Elliott (Sample Sale), Heels: Lanvin (Roundabout Resale), Sunglasses: Michael Kors (Marshalls), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Jewelry: Urban Outfitters earrings, Urban Outfitters ring & Mom's rings

Wednesday: Dress: Jones New York (Lord & Taylor), Sandals: Seychelles (DSW), Necklace: Francesca's, Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Jewelry: Urban Outfitters earrings, Urban Outfitters ring & Mom's rings

Thursday: Sweater: Ralph Lauren (GoodWill), Tee: Everlane, Jeans: Genetic Denim c/o Piperlime & Lucky, Flats: H&M, Watch: Michael Kors (Lord & Taylor), Watch: Skagen (Rue La La), Jewelry: Urban Outfitters earrings, Urban Outfitters ring & Mom's rings

Confession: I have not worn this outfit... yet. But I couldn't wait to show you this gorgeous new bag from Linger Rose. My bag collection was in desperate need of an evening clutch so this filled that void. It is by Danielle Nicole, one of the designers Linger Rose carries, and is made of faux metallic lizard and has geometric piecing details on the flap. I love how different it is and the quality is great, I love the texture of it.  Now I just need to find a real occasion to wear it!

Dress: Burberry London (Net-a-Porter sale), Bag c/o Linger Rose, Heels: Dolce & Gabbana (Uptown Consignments), Watch c/o Caravelle by Bulova,  Jewelry: Urban Outfitters, Urban Outfitters & Mom's & unknown bracelet
