Sometimes you just want to make your outfit all about your bag, and this outfit, is all about my bag! I chose my classic dark wash, skinny jeans with my favorite stripe tee in order to show off the bright green hue of my handbag. I love making my handbag the center of attention! After all, I love handbags! haha

In addition to the handbag, did you notice I scored a pair of Dunk’s? I have been entering the draw’s through Nike’s SNKR’s app and I am starting to score Dunk and Air Jordan’s for myself and my family. It’s a fun way to shop plus it feels to good to get a pair of shoes my kids really, really, and I mean REALLY want! There is definitely a sense of accomplishment walking around in shoes I sort-of had to work to buy! haha

I wore this outfit while window shopping at Standford Shopping Center. We enjoyed a yummy meal at pacific Catch, which is turning into one of my favorite restaurants. I usually eat at the Cupertino location, but the Standford location is equally delicious. You can see my yummy fish tacos below.

In addition to fish tacos, they have a large menu filled with a variety of seafood dishes. Everything is good! If you haven’t been to one of their locations yet, be sure to check them out soon!

Do you ever plan your outfit around your handbag? Or am I just a crazy one? haha. Let me know!

Can you believe it is already June? I am not sure where the month of May went! It has been an extremely busy time with graduations, end-of-school-year events, and a packed calendar. Now that June is here, summer break is getting close!

This past week on the blog, you have been looking for the right handbag to kick off summer vacation, especially if that bag is black or a bright color! Black handbags are always a classic, closet staple. You can never go wrong with a black bag; especially if you are indulging in a designer bag! I feel like we can never have enough black bags in our wardrobe!

It’s time for summer nails! This bright summer nail polish is a popular color for the warm weather season! In addition to bright hues, shades of pink and brown are also hot this summer season. Loving these new colors!

Summer isn’t always scorching temperatures. This denim jacket is the perfect wardrobe staple for foggy evenings, and cool summer mornings. It can be worn with anything! Plus, this particular style is a classic. Love!

Summer is fast approaching! This means we are all lightening up fabrics and brightening up our color palettes. I love this bright pink tee for summer. It looks fabulous with shorts, denim skirts, and jeans on cooler days. I also love that it is on sale!

A denim jacket is perfect in the summer since it is lightweight and matches almost any casual look. This one is a classic that will last for years. Love!

We all need a fabulous handbag this summer season! Whether you want a classic neutral, or a fun, bright hue, there is a handbag for you! This summer season look for hobo bags, soft and squishy bags, and straw bags.

What are you loving for summer right now?
