Let's take a look at the pieces and I will chat about fit and sizing for each piece below...
above: This blue/white striped popover top is SO classic. I've already worn it twice since I got it... I just love it! It's lightweight and comfortable and doesn't wrinkle easily (which is a definite bonus). I love it here with white jeans and sandals, but I am packing it for my beach vacation as both a top and a beach cover up. I love pieces that work for multiple settings and this piece is one of those! This top runs true to size - I am wearing a size small here. (shop the pieces: blue/white striped popover, jeans, studded sandals, clutch)
above: Another great beachy piece is this pale blue sweater. I am obsessed with this gorgeous blue color and the oversized and slouchy fit. I am in a size small here which is a quite oversized, I recommend sizing down and think you will still have the slouchy feel. It's also available in a few other colors. (shop the pieces: pale blue sweater, jeans, studded sandals, clutch)
above: This graphic tee listing the Great Lakes is a must-have if you live in the Great Lakes states like I do. It's so, so cute! It runs true to size, I sized up for a slouchier feel, so I am wearing a size medium here. (shop the pieces: Great Lakes tee, jeans, Birkenstocks)
above: I've been looking for a new white button front top and I'm really trying to find the PERFECT one. I really like this white utility shirt! I love the double pockets and the crisp-ness of the fabric. This top wrinkles really easily, so if you are wrinkle-averse... be warned. This top runs a little big, I went down a size to XS and think it still has that "boyfriend" fit but I'm not swimming in it. You've likely already seen this very cute denim skirt on the blog already - I styled it 6 ways here. It fits true to size and is a great summer staple. (shop the pieces: white utility shirt, denim skirt, studded sandals, clutch)
above: I'm such a sucker for a striped top - especially these red/blue stripes leading up to Fourth of July. They are so fun! This cropped tee has a super boxy fit that works great with high waisted jeans. This top runs true to size, I am in my usual size small. These high waisted cropped wide leg jeans are fun, no? They are definitely different than what I usually go for - but definitely are fun for summer! I am wearing my usual size - 26. (shop the pieces: cropped striped t-shirt, wide leg jeans, sandals)
above: I saw this striped pencil skirt and I was immediately intrigued. This one is not at all what I am usually wearing but it's definitely fun to try! This one fits a little too small - I am in a size 2. I'm not sure if sizing up would work with the fit through the thighs - so I can't speak to that. I love it here with a chambray top and sandals! (shop the pieces: top, striped skirt, studded sandals)
above: I've gotten lots of requests for cute swim cover ups this summer and I just haven't found many, which is a total bummer! BUT this beach dress is SO cute. I am definitely packing this for my beach vacation and it's great for hanging at the local pool too. Plus, it's on sale! I am in my usual size small here and the straps are adjustable in the back.
