summer whites.

nothing says summer like a white dress.
sheer and gauzy and cottony.
i can't resist buying them.
and with white, it's all about the details.
love the dainty straps and the delicate insets on this one.
its versatile mid-length works with slippers or heels.
any shorter would've been too beach-cover-up casual, and any longer would've been borderline wedding dress.

what's your summer essential?

so lady-like...

I couldn't agree more, I'm always drawn to white sundresses in Summer (or white anything for that matter) Our little heatwave here has gone now, so it's back to wearing jumpers and coats :( You look gorgeous in these photos.

Summer essential?
These amazing spaghetti-strap tops from Nordstrom that I own in six different colors.
I heard from my stylist that they come in 100 colors.
It is my mission to own them all.
