Right when I’m about ready to mentally move on to fall, summer starts really bringing the heat. I mean that literally. I don’t even look at the weather any more because I know it’s just a number that means ‘it’s hot, don’t try’. However, I’ve got this — I can dress for hot and dry as I’ve been doing this my whole life. Plus, it’s the perfect weather for cut-offs and a light top. I’ve been wearing these cut-offs non stop this summer (as seen on Instagram) so it’s about time they made their way on to the blog. These have sold out but I’ve linked some similar ones below and I also snagged this top on sale too. Luckily stores too are ready for fall so summer is on sale — a nice perk when it’s 99+ degrees out. (I stop paying attention once it hits triple digits. No need to a ruin a good day, you know?)
Speaking of sales, Nordstrom Anniversary sale is still going strong. It ends this Sunday, I believe, so if you haven’t checked it out you can find my picks here and here. I’ll post what I bought (and kept) from the sale later this week. I’m sad to see this sale go. Stay forever, sale.

love this look, Kendi. It’s really cute. Sadly, even on sale at $210 this shirt is quite out of range for this everyday girl.
I’ve been watching this top! So excited its finally on sale! You look gorgeous in it:)

Yikes, Kendi, love the top, but at over $200, it’s not so much an Everyday purchase. lol On a happy note, you’re rockin’ it. 🙂
You look great in this top!

This look is so sweet! I love a good white + blue combination in the summer. Great shorts, girly!
Love your sandals! I usually am between a 6.5 and 7, do you know if they run true to size? LOVE the blouse, too. Thanks!
All of the reviews said to size down a half size and I did (I bought the 9.5) but they are pretty snug. I’m a true size 10 in shoes. I would say they are TTS but if you are between sizes and tend to lean more towards the smaller size, maybe try that size! Like I said, these are a bit snug but not uncomfortably so!
Adorable & cute, a fun & flirty look always is a good idea! 🙂

Ugh, yes. I am so happy to be back in Texas, but WHY IS IT SO HOT? I am all about wearing as little clothing as possible. Those cutoffs are perfection.

I love that necklace! You are so right, I refuse to look at the temperature after about 95.
The APC cross body is beautiful! I love the necklaces too, Kendi! x

Super sad that the shirt is so pricey. Any cheaper options that look similar? I wish this blog had more realistically-priced items.
