Outfits of the Week: May 26-31

Tuesday May 26

  • Pink sweater - American Eagle

  • Leggings - Aerie

  • Floral sneaks - allblack

When I take a chill day, outfit-wise, I do like to have some brightness going on, hence this sweater. This sweater is a nice transitional piece because it feels warm when the air is a bit chilly, but fairly light and open for when it warms up a bit. I also like how it looks with my shiny nails!

Wednesday May 27

  • Blue terrazzo blouse - Target

  • Blue jeans - Madewell

  • Sweater blazer - Moth

  • Flax flats - Rothy’s

I felt like wearing this blouse with jeans for a cute but casual look. The jeans go with the dark blue in the top so well. I wore the blazer as a layer in the morning, when it was cooler. I should’ve switched to a denim jacket for the afternoon, as I got a little sunburn on my shoulders. 

Thursday May 28

  • Tie-dye tee - urban outfitters 

  • White pants - Wayf

  • Sparkle jellies - Stuart Weitzman

A hot day called for some light-colored and -weight day pants. These pants are so loose and drape well, which makes them comfortable in hot weather. The perfectly-fitted waistband makes them more flattering. I’ve had this tee for eight years, so it’s funny to wear again as tie-dye is trendy. The sparkle jellies are somewhat subtle, but add a little something and go well with the other colors. 

Friday May 29

  • Red floral shirt - O’Neill

  • Jean shorts - Madewell

  • White denim jacket - Pilcro

  • Bird dress - gift from a friend 

For a day at the beach, I went for comfy shorts, a fun shirt, and a denim jacket. The shorts are the same as my favorite Danny wash jeans from madewell, but cut off! I was very happy to add these to my summer wardrobe. This red shirt is a favorite from a few years ago. It tucks and ties nicely and has great colors. The white denim jacket helped protect me from the wind and sun, though I still got some burns.

The dress is a gift from a friend. I tried it on, and decided to keep it on for dinner! Also, for anyone who ever wonders why I don’t go tanning, just look at my feet! 

Saturday May 30

  • Pajama shirt - Target

  • Green shorts - Gap

It was a lazy day and I only half made it out of my pajamas. But that’s what I love about sets like these: they look like casual shirts when paired with shorts or jeans! I usually pair these shorts with a belt, but didn’t feel like it. 

Sunday May 31

  • White tee - Target

  • Harem pants - Soho Chick

  • Yellow denim jacket - Pilcro

  • White sneaks - Keds

I started switching my closet to my hot weather options, so I decided to wear these fun pants for the first time this year! I almost got rid of them for some reason, but am so glad I didn’t. I prefer wearing them with sandals, but chose sneakers to cover my sunburns for a walk. The yellow jean jacket has been in my closet for seven years, and I love it so much.
