hey all!

since i’ve been a been a little slacking on my blog lately i decided i needed to make a super organized and researched post for this sunday, and since its the resort wear season i thought it sounded perfect. it was super fun to research items and thinking about what i would like to wear, and share with you guys! of course, i scoured my favorite places: nordstrom, kate spade and cult gaia to find the best for you all, in sharing i got to view all the stuff  too!

once again, a note to all my readers – this post does not mean i own any of the above, or that i will buy any of the above. it just means that i like it visually and (unless noted) i do not own it; all that i will write about is stuff i hear from friends and other users of the product as well as the visual aspects of the product which i will mention in the comment below!

#1: topshop stripe wrap suit

i love one pieces, and this is a black little number but definitely has a super cute twist, the stripe wrapped section. its super cute if like me, you are a little insecure about your midsection!

#2: geo-sphere drop earrings

these nordstrom bp earrings are super cute colors, and are definitely derivative of my favorite baublebar earrings! i love the little geometric shape in the middle and would love to wear them with a cute off the shoulder dress!

#3: baublebar drop earrings 

these are a little different but definitely are super cute, and white is always in season in your resort wear and would be super cute to pair with any of the navy dresses i have in this post!

#4:   cult gaia ark bag

y’all KNOW i love this guy, to me this bag is so iconic, and is not only perfect for your resort wear, but ALL summer, and with many different outfits.

#5: marc fischer ‘randal’ wedges 

marc fischer officially makes the best espadrille sandals, i mean, they are ALWAYS super cute, but i love this style especially because of the little criss-cross over the top strap! super cute and versatile, for resort wear and all of summer!

#6: kate spade 3d aligator bag

this is probably the most unique item i have on this list, but i AM in LOVE with this bag and am totally coveting it! first of all, i love the shape, and kate spade seriously always nails it on the more kitsch-y things, but i love the basket weave going on there too, and would totally get it if it was more versatile!

#7: lilly pulitzer off the shoulder dress

everyone should have a white off the shoulder dress for summer, they are perfect (for summer) for their versatility!  wear it on a date, brunch with friends, a party or any other event! dress it up with those marc fischer espedrilles, or dress it down with flat strappy sandals, or with gladiator sandals. this lilly pulitzer one is a great investment because they are ALWAYS made well and will be well worth your money!

#8: free people daisy off the shoulder dress

i think this is a super unique dress, and i love the longer balloon-y sleeves! so cute over a bathing suit or paired with flat sandals and the cult gaia ark bag for a fairly simple look that will definitely seem more put together!

#9: ray ban evolve sunglasses 

i believe i have talked about them many times before, but for christmas i opted for these ray ban evolve sunnies, and cannot be more excited everytime i put them on. i have super light eyes (blue eyed people in the HOUSE) and because of their special lenses i always feel like i can see perfectly well without sun damage!

#10: le specs the last lolita sunglasses 

AH i am loving the tiny sunglasses trend (i see you KANYE) and i am absolutely loving this sorta cat eye shape. i think its super unique and i love that its back in style, and totally pairs well with any look from this list!

#11: caslon ‘claire’ slip-on sandal

i am LOVING these sandals, i saw them in my nordstrom store and fell in love, they are super cute and i just love flat sandals – and think they are the perfect casual comfy shoe for the heat!

#12: j.crew saffiano leather pouch

pouches as bags is another one of my favorite trends, and this super cute bright yellow j.crew one will pair very well with anything navy blue, white or black (ya see my color scheme!) to provide a pop of unexpected color.

#13: soprano strapless striped romper

for some reason i am a huge fan of this strapless romper, like i LOVE the look and think it would pair really well with the caslon ‘claire’ slip-on sandal and the le specs the last lolita sunglasses  for a super cute put-together look!

#14: j.crew grosgrain suit 

well when i saw this suit, i decided i had to have it, and although i don’t have it right now, i love the grosgrain bows as straps, i think they are the perfect amount of preppiness for a resort wear style!

#15: rebecca minkoff bow slide sandal

finally, last but CERTAINLY not least, these espedrille sandals are super cute, and i am loving the bow detail on the front!

well, i hope you guys enjoyed and feel free to shop the links as you please!
