Summer style has captured my heart!

Shopping at Forever 21 is so easy; always on trend, fashion-forward, and no one bothers me (because the sales staff doesn't ever offer help). The latest is bright florals, brights, rompers in brights, etc. (see my blog entry about the latest trends.

Look #1:

Bright floral dress; Purchase

This dress is so gorgeous! Pure, 100% cotton and a wonderful cut. The empire waist flatters my figure and the wide halter straps are perfect because it will support a larger chest. The only down side is if you do have a bigger chest, there is a small amount of padding in the top which I did not like. The skirt of the dress has tulle which creates a better hourglass shape. The bright colors are perfect for this Spring/Summer and pairing this with espadrilles or cowboy boots depending on your style. A cute pair of flats would also be great with this, keeping it casual yet fashionable.

Look #2:

• Floral Bralette Top; (Not avaliable on website)
• Orange Pleated Linen Skirt; Purchase

So obsessed with this outfit. It is perfect for this weather, this season, everything! The skirt is such a great color and paired with the top is so chic, so retro. The pockets, of course, are a true obsession. Anything with pockets is mine for sure!

Look #3:

• Bustier floral dress; Purchase
• Men's button-up gingham shirt; Purchase
• Military button vest; Purchase

I really wanted to play down the femininity of the strapless bustier dress so I thought adding the menswear button-down shirt. I had originally tied it cowboy-style but I thought it looked so much better. Adding the vest gave it a measurable touch. This look would look great with cowboy flat boots or sandals. Even taking off the vest would look great alone with the gingham button down and the dress.

Look #4:

• Double belted romper; Purchase

I'm in love with this romper so much! The color is fantastic, so bright and vibrant. Make a statement with black tights and black booties and this romper will stand out to its maximum. To wear for day, a pair of wedges or cute sandals would be great. Keeping the accessories to a minimum will make this romper the spotlight.
