modern polka dots

tie top with white skirt and blue heels M Loves M @marmar
When I got this top with the ties on the shoulder I thought it would be so cute layered under overalls, but it’s just as perfect paired with a skirt or pair of jeans. The fact that it’s a modern polka dot {squares instead of dots} makes me love it even more! This white skirt is such an amazing deal too {under $20!}. It would be great to wear next summer too!

How was your weekend everyone? Matthew and I were busy bees getting a bunch of stuff done. I got a new computer, cleaned my closet, and donated a ton of clothes and shoes. We had three dinners in which was really nice. Sometimes when you procrastinate on a Saturday night dinner reservation, it ends up working out even better! We made cocktails, Matthew grilled, and I made a super yummy kale salad that was almost as good as the homemade mud pie that followed. All enjoyed in pjs! So perfect!

the friday five

August 8, 2015
the friday five with olvie tank, sand tropez nail polish, mustard yellow tassel clutch, plaid midi skirt, and lace-up sandals M Loves M @marmar
Who else is looking ahead when it comes to shopping right now? As sad as it will be to put away my summery dresses I am excited for fall clothes! Since we’re not quite there yet, I put together a Friday Five that includes pieces that will help in the transitional weeks. 
This OLIVE TANK will keep you cool during a sunny day, but it will also be perfect for layering with a chunky cardigan come fall. 
For those of you not ready to give up your white nail polish, try swapping it for this SANDY POLISH instead. The beige color is pretty and flattering. Plus the name is Sand Tropez, so it will help you think of a tropical location!
My favorite autumn color is mustard yellow so this TASSEL CLUTCH immediately stood out to me! It’s perfect for the essentials!
I love the draping on this PLAID MIDI SKIRT. I’d wear it with a lightweight chambray top and a pair of cognac booties!
These LACE-UP SANDALS are super cute. The thick stacked heel makes it comfortable for walking around and the cut-out details are a fun detail. Shoes like these are a must-have until the weather forces me into closed-toe booties.
Happy Friday everyone! Any fun plans for the weekend?
