I ❤ August

Here are some things I've been loving this month...

1. White Lace Dresses- They're the easiest thing to throw on and feel summery and feminine, I have several styles from skater, shift, drop waist. Find one in which ever style you like the best and wear it everywhere from the beach to dinner to a concert.

2. Pretty Tea Cups- I've recently gotten off drinking coffee in the morning and have started drinking green tea instead ( see #6). And I find it even more pleasurable drinking it from a pretty cup and saucer.

3. Peach Nail Polish- It looks great with a tan, on fingers and on toes. It's a great shade if you don't like pinky pinks but still want something that's summery and feminine.

4. Patterned Shorts- If you're uneasy about patterned shorts find some in a neutral color, like this navy that's close to denim. They're a great way to spice up a basic tee with out putting in any effort!

5. Wristlet Wallet- I'm not a fan of clutches because doesn't that take away the point of a purse? But when you're just dashing out to meet friends or go to the store and you only need you're keys, phone, money, and maybe a lip gloss little wristlets like this are great because they find just a basics and you still have your hands and pockets free

6. Green Tea- Like I mentioned earlier my new morning drink is green tea with honey and lemon, so refreshing for the summer!

7. Statement Necklaces-enought said. ( J.Crew, Stella & Dot, and Bauble Bar make the best.)

8. Diptyque Candles- On my last trip to NYC I picked up some lovely Diptyque candles and have been burning them all summer.

9. Marc Jacobs Daisy Perfume- A tried and true favorite of mine I've been wearing this scent of years and it's light floral notes with a touch of sweetness are perfect for summer.

10. Orange is the New Black- A new Netflix original series, completely character driven,  about a WASP from New York who has to spend a year in a women's correctional facility. It takes a couple of episodes to get into but once you do you can't stop!

11. Simple Strappy Sandals- I've never been a fan of flip flops but a good sandal that you can slide on and off with ease but still has a little flare is a summer must.
