I cannot get enough of my new Citizens for Humanity petite jeans! They are so comfortable and they fit perfectly. I love wearing jeans with breezy blouses, and this off-white one from Lush is perfection. I love the breezy silhouette it has, and the fabric is cool for a hot summer day. It also looks amazing with cut-offs or regular shorts. 

If you would like to pre-order a new Mansur Gavriel for fall, you can pre-order one online here and here. If you have been thinking about it, don’t hesitate to order! They will go fast. I love my Mansur Gavriel handbag. They are strong handbags, not to mention on trend! I can fit my DSLR camera inside my large drawstring bucket bag, as well as stuff a denim shirt inside, my wallet, phone, and a water bottle. It is amazing how much this bag fits! It is also amazing how heavy I can make the bag, and it withstands all the weight. The high quality construction of Mansur Gavriel handbags is nothing short of amazing! I pre-ordered the new shoulder bag for fall, and I cannot wait to get my hands on it!

Also, the Nordstrom Anniversary sale is going on right now! It is the perfect time to pick a few fall essentials at a discount before the season starts. To see my picks from the sale, please click here. To shop the sale, please click here.

Pictured: Earrings: Kendra Scott (on sale!) / Sunglasses: Prada / Lipstick: Chanel 487 Amarosa / Tee shirt: Gap (sold out, also love this one) / Bracelets: Kendra Scott (on sale!)/ Skirt: Kate Spade New York / Handbag: Chanel (also love SAVE or SPLURGE) / Nail Polish: Chanel Lavanda / Shoes: Aquazurra

When I first saw this skirt by Kate Spade, I instantly fell in love with it. Not only does it have a fabulous print featuring one of my favorite blue hues, it is lightweight and comfortable; perfect for summer!

The past couple of weeks, temperatures here in the San Francisco Bay Area have been hovering in the high 80’s and low 90’s. This has caused me to to choose an outfit each day which is not only appropriate per occasion, but comfortable in the heat. This skirt has worked perfectly for both meetings and church. Love that! I paired it with a comfortable, and lightweight, basic tee shirt. This has kept me cool in the 90 degree heat, while giving the outfit a summery and carefree look. Double love that!

One of my favorite summer into fall trends is the block heel. I love stacked, and thick high heels because they are easy to walk in. When the heel is thick, I don’t have to worry about teetering and falling, or possibly chasing one of more of kids. I can run in thick heels if I have to! These black suede high heels by Aquazurra are perfect for now, and the fall 2015 season. They fit into the thick heel trend, they are comfortable, and they are suede; a big fall fabrication trend. I know I will be wearing these Aquazurra shoes quite often throughout the remainder of summer and well into the fall season. They not only look amazing with skirts, these shoes are fabulous with flare jeans too! These Aquazurra shoes are great way to wear a fall trend before the start of the fall season. I love being slightly ahead 😉
