How cute are these Cargo Khaki and white Nike Dunk high sneakers? I love the late summer, fall color combination which is a great neutral for everyday wear. When these sneakers appeared in the Nike app, I was really excited because I already owned military green shorts and a few pairs of pants. I knew this sneaker would be the perfect match with these bottoms!

What I love about the Nike Dunks, both low and high, is that they have really good arch support. If you have been following along, I injured my hip last summer and as soon as it healed, I injured my foot. I have to make sure I am wearing good, supportive shoes in order to help the arch of my foot heal. This led to me investing in a few new pairs of sneakers to ensure I wasn’t in the same shoes every day. I ended up with a Dunk obsession! I love being able to get a pair which is the perfect color for my wardrobe. If you have tried getting sneakers from the Nike app or SNKRS app, you know it can be a challenge! Check out my tips to help increase your chances.

I wore this outfit the other day to go back to Eataly for lunch, and a little grocery shopping. We ate lunch at Pizza & Pasta and it was yummy. I enjoyed a pasta dish with mushrooms, which is pictured below. It was really good! From the grocery, I highly recommend grabbing a tiramisu to bring home and enjoy later. Thier tiramisu is out of this world! If you are looking at the deli, I recommend the thinly sliced mortadella. I grew up on mortadella and I can safely say this is one of the best ones I have tasted. Love!

Eataly at Valley Fair is very popular, when you go, go early! I highly recommend making a reservation for the restaurants. Walk-in is a very long line. For the grocery, I recommend going early too. They can get crowded! Check out my write-up here.

Do you find yourself matching your clothing to your sneakers too? What are your favorite sneaker colors?

BAF Weekly IT List

summer street style trends

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: blazer vest / summer nail polish, coral, sea green / summer dress (under $50) / green cross body bag / chain pouch / nike sneakers / basket bag /

Summer is in full swing, and we are all looking to fill our wardrobes with warm weather items and great travel pieces. This week, cross body bags and sneakers have been popular as they are the ideal items for travel and exploring on a nice summer day. Of course, staying cool and looking cool go hand in hand, which is why the chain pouch, and the basket bag, are also popular right now.

More people are going back to the office, and traffic is really looking like it was two years ago! This means we all need to ramp up our office attire. This blazer vest is perfect for staying cool on a warm day yet looking professional and powerful at the office. Love that! It also looks very chic with shorts or jeans. Love that too!

We don’t always want to wear shorts on warm and casual days. This cool summer dress is priced under $50 and perfect for a casual day this summer season. I love that it comes in so many color choices! I purchased blue, black, and striped. Love!

Stay tuned! The annual Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is coming up a little bit earlier this year. The preview is already online and the sale starts next week! I’ll post my favorites from the sale for you next week. There are a couple really cute handbags at amazing prices, and the fall boots look good again this year. I also found some fabulous coats.

Take an inventory of what you have in your closet and make a list of what you think you might need for fall, that way you don’t overshop during the sale. It’s so easy to buy too much when the prices are so good! I’ll curate my favorites for you so you don’t have to sort through everything, and buy too much! Here is a sneak peek at what I found so far:
