What I Wore Last Summer

Hey guys!

Today I am sharing some of the items that I loved last summer and plan on wearing again this summer! If I can’t find the original item, I will link a similar item for you guys to go and buy. 🙂

Graphic Tee’s

I am so glad that this trend has stuck around. I have ordered a few graphic tee’s for summer but will for sure keep the ones from last year in rotation. The one pictured is probably my favorite but is no longer available. I will link the ones that I have purchased and will also link some that I love but don’t have…yet :). I love to pair graphic tee’s with biker shorts for an effortless but still cute/put together look.

Graphic Tee’s I want: here, here, here, and here

Graphic Tee’s that I purchased: here (in suede), and here

Distressed T’s and Clear Shoes

I loved my clear shoes last season! I wore my clear flats pictured above so much that I thought about buying a second pair this year. I really want a pair that has crystals instead of the metal hardware to wear this summer.

The exact pair of flats that I have on is available here

Clear sandals with crystals here

Similar versions of the flats: here , here, and here

Similar to the heeled version I have on: here , here , and here

Distressed T’s are always a win for me. I bought the tee that I have on in the first picture in several colors last year and wore them sooo much! They just go so well with everything from biker shorts to denim skirts. You just can’t go wrong with a distressed tee. Unfortunately, the exact one that I wore last summer isn’t available. There is an updated version available here but the color selection isn’t as broad as it was last summer. However, I loveeee the green and will be ordering it!

Brown Lipstick

So brown lipstick isn’t an outfit obviously (lol!) but it was something that I LOVED last summer and I am still obsessed with it. I think I may be even more obsessed because I can count on one hand how many times I wore makeup during my pregnancy and I am ready to get back to feeling/looking like myself. I also don’t think that brown lipstick is necessary “on-trend” but IMO it’s HOT and a must again this summer. The colors that I used last summer were MAC kinkster, double fudge, consensual, and antique velvet. My fave of the bunch was kinkster with MAC chestnut lipliner.

Wide Brim Hats

I loved this little wide brim hat soooo much last summer that I purchased the sand version to wear this spring/summer. Due to my very interesting pregnancy, I have not had a chance to wear the sand one (it’s been collecting dust in my closet for months now lol!) but I have so many cute outfit ideas for it and I am excited to take some pictures in it. I really think it will look good with white and neutrals. The best part is the hat is around $60 which is great because I have seen some expensiveeeee hats ($150+) and that just seems crazy to me…especially since I don’t plan on wearing the hat every day. The hat is still available in the color I purchased last year (whiskey) and in a few other colors including the sand version. The steel blue is really nice if you don’t want something neutral.
