Simple Style

I recently wore this for a day of shopping in the city with a girlfriend.  Because it was ridiculously hot outside, I wanted something simple and comfortable but still stylish, so I went with this uber-comfy striped maxi and rose-gold leather sandals with padded soles (read: most comfortable sandals ever).

Dress ~ Tommy Bahama / Sandals ~ Banana Republic / Sunglasses ~ Tom Ford
Bracelet ~ Loft / Nail Polish ~ Essie Enuf is Enuf
Since I can't seem to go anywhere without a bit of color, I added a chunky blue bracelet to give the outfit some added flair.



My sister and I found this dress when we were shopping for her honeymoon a few months ago and we both fell in love with it.  For some reason, neither of us ended up buying it, but I couldn't get it out of my head so I made the purchase a few weeks later.  Molls, it's yours to borrow anytime!
