Vacation State of Mind

Ready for Vacation Outfit

Happy summer! I know that summer doesn’t officially begin until June 21 this year, but Memorial Day has always been the unofficial kickoff to summer for me.  And with summer comes summer vacation!  I’m already in a vacation state of mind. Today I’m sharing the perfect vacation outfit that you can wear before vacation to get in the mood.

Top: J.Crew Factory c/o Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass (similar and similar under $20) Jeans: Old Navy (more colors) // Neck scarf: J.Crew Factory c/o Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass –just $5! // Handbag: Who What Wear via Target // Espadrilles: Target Earrings: Sugarfix via Target–$15 // Sunglasses: Quay

These tee and scarf were part of my outlet shopping haul from my girls day with What Nicole Wore. I’ve always liked the way that neck scarves look on others, but I’ve shied away from them until recently. This tee and neck scarf combo is very chic–to achieve the look, fold the neckscarf in half to where it looks like a triangle. Then, roll it down from the widest side to the point in a little over 1″ increments. Finally, tie it around your neck like a choker.

For a total vacation outfit vibe, add straw accessories! My espadrilles were a recent clearance find at my Target, but they’re still available online for $25!  They’re the perfect neutral shoe for summer.  My round burlap bag is also a recent Target find. Round bags are all the rage this summer.

    Hey sugar! So glad to run into a Kentucky gal through Jennie’s link-up today. My mom and brother live in Lexington. Have always wanted to visit the outlet mall. Maybe when I visit next week.
    Your tee is like a mini-vacay all on its own. Super cute. Love your whole look.
