SUMMER STYLE RECAP

Now that we're officially in summer, here's a little blog recap with all of the most current summer style posts of the season here on TheKristenDiary.com! I always love sharing my picks when it comes to fashion for each season. So far I've found some great sandals, straw bags, scents + clothing pieces from Free People. I'll definitely be adding more posts throughout the summer as well which I'll update + add to this post. Feel free to check back here or you can keep a watch on all the new posts going up! 

1. FREE PEOPLE FINDS - Free People always screams summer to me. There's just something about their relaxed, boho style that's effortlessly summer. As always, they have so many fun + unique clothing pieces in stock. I always love their dresses in particular- they are feminine, eye-catching and perfect for the warmer months!

2. STRAW BAGS I LOVE - Nothing compliments a summer/beach outfit like a cute straw bag. Raffia is timeless and comes in so many styles. From small clutches to totes- this is a must for every wardrobe. I also love when these bags have a bit of embellishment like pearls or seashells!

3. SUMMER SANDALS - I live laugh love in sandals whenever the weather is nice. I always like a mix of everyday flip-flops, some nicer sandals and a few dressier, heeled options. I've found so many great ones this season!

4. SUMMER SCENTS - While technically not clothing, a summer scent most definitely ties an outfit together. I'm a little basic in that I love a coconut, tropical vibe for the warmer months. It just always works and never feels like too much when it's hot out. I have all of these on my list right now- I definitely need to add in a few new ones to my collection.

EVERYDAY UNIFORM INFO

Alright ya'll... I'm starting to realize maybe I need to branch out with these looks. I just don't think I'll ever get tired of a good tee and jeans moment, ya know? At this point it's pretty much my everyday uniform! The great thing is how versatile you can make this. I'm a casual gal so I usually opt for a sandal but this would easily work with a heel and a nice blazer or jacket! It's WAY too hot out here for that, though. The temps reached in the 80s today!

I've mentioned the tee I'm wearing a million times at this point. It checks all the boxes I need it to-- perfectly oversized, washed look, comfy + affordable. I won't keep boring you with the same spiel but you can find all the details in my New Favorite Basic Tee post here. They tend to go on and off sale a lot so I'd keep a watch on them (don't pay regular price!)-- right now they are 25% off here which makes them around $18! I have in several different colors, they are great staples. 

My jeans are an old pair of the Jamie's from Topshop-- I've had them for years but I did find this current/similar pair that look very close to mine. I really like that the new style only has distressing on the knees... thinking I might need to get them too. Just an FYI-- they are more of a jegging than a jean so the fabric hugs your body but is very flattering. My philosophy is always tight pants + a loose top! Has to be one or the other. Also wearing the best favorite sandals ever (check out my Spring & Summer Shoe Staples here) + my normal everyday jewelry. My earrings are these ear crawlers-- they look like you have several piercings in + are currently on major sale. I'll also link my star necklace here + a similar option for my initial necklace (old LuluDK). 

I hope you enjoyed this look! I'd love to know what more you'd like to see on here-- feel free to comment below or DM me on Instagram. You can find me @TheKristenDiary :)
