I’m so used to the Texas heat that assaults you the minute you step out of your house, that I’m not used to this sneaky heat that exists elsewhere in the world. That’s how it was on the island, you’d think oh, this is so refreshing and 20 minutes late you were covered in sweat and confused as to how. I’ve come to the conclusion that both types of heat are offensive. I’ve also come to the conclusion that pony tails and buns are the key defense for summertime hair. If you can’t beat ’em, bun ’em. Said no one ever, but they should because it’s wise and catchy. 
Have you heard of the brand Show Me Your Mumu? It’s an adorable brand that is run by two friends of mine who are just as adorable as their colorful pieces. I packed this Mumu maxi dress to be worn to the beach and such, but I ended up feeling so fancy that I wore it to dinner one evening. Multi-tasking maxi’s are a very good thing.

  1. My favorite dress of all you have sported this season! The high neckline is different and looks nice on you. I think this would also be pretty with a lacey pair of chandelier earrings. So summery!

  2. maxi skirts are everything for a hot summer. classy and elegant but as easy peasy as jogging pants, amirite?

    love your photos, girl, that rock wall is devine!

  5. nice dress! sadly, the brand’s name won’t work for the international market – at least not in Germany. At first I thought it might be a bad joke. I really hesitated to type in the brand’s name to google search. The word “Mumu” in German would be best translated as “pussy” I think (and not in the cute cat version)…
    I guess you are not the right person to be addressed with these concerns, but it would have been on my mind FOREVER if I didn’t tell…

    1. shut up!! That makes me laugh tbh. I’m dying right now. Maybe I should change the name of my post?? BAHA. That’s so funny.
