I drive past the most beautiful bed of day lilies

I drive past the most beautiful bed of day lilies every day. Fortunately, they’re in a public park and not on private property, since I have a dress that’s a perfect match. My mom bought this dress in Hawaii while traveling after college, and I love how vibrant it is. The necklace belonged to my great grandmother! I styled this for a party on Reels yesterday- join me this afternoon to see more ways to wear your summer party clothes 💛🧡💛
(Swipe to see just the flowers.)

It might be too late to order anything new for the Fourth (unless you want to pay rush shipping), but I bet you have a few of these items lying around your closet. My daughter got a festive new outfit, which I can’t wait to share. As usual, she’s the one with the new clothes - I’ll be wearing one of these looks (am leaning toward #3). ❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙

As my friends back East post about how cold they are, the Midwest’s break in the heat was very short lived. My coworkers and I were chatting last week about how much easier women have it in the ‘heatwave appropriate office attire’ category. (Something might as well be easier for us, right?) Here are all of my heatwave office looks from the past week.
If your office building is an air-conditioned tundra, too, check out my recent blog post on professional, chic layering options.
