It is officially summer! Today we headed out for a picnic in the park with some friends. The sun was out and the afternoon couldn't have been more picture perfect. I have to be honest though - I favor the cooler months more because I enjoy dressing in layers (love, love trousers, jackets and coats). When the heat rolls in I find myself stuck - how do I put together an outfit that's interesting, chic, yet comfortable enough for high temps and keeping up with a 4-year-old? Loose, sheer, and drapey was the answer. Definitely feels very fresh and the stripes are subtly in theme with the upcoming week's Fourth of July festivities!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend, have a great week ahead!
