outfit details: Lookbook Store Blouse, American Eagle Jean Shorts
For me, the basics of my summer & vacation style always starts with a cute white blouse and a comfortable pair of jean shorts. It’s the quintessential summer beach-bum look, and it’s one I sport often over the warmer months. While we were in Cuba this was an outfit I sported frequently, especially for our walks down the beach (which were nearly daily) and for our jaunts into the marketplace.
When it comes down to my style in general, I’m all about style that doesn’t sacrifice comfort. Especially when I’m away on vacation or in the dead of summer, I want pieces that will allow me to feel at ease while also stylish. Today I thought I’d share my top five vacation style picks that combine comfort and style into one, and you can read them all by clicking through the jump!
Boyfriend Shorts: Relax fitting boyfriend shorts are some of
my favourites for the summertime. If my shorts aren’t either super comfortable
& stretchy like these AEO denim hi-rise shortie, then I always want to be sure that they are a
boyfriend fit. Plus, I love that sort of grungy beach-bum vibe these loose and
distressed boyfriend shorts give off.
Off the Shoulder Tops: Two words come to mind when I think
of off the shoulder tops – Romantic & Delicate. There’s something so lovely
about off the shoulder shirts, but what’s even better about them is that
typically they are made from super comfortable materials. I only have two off
the shoulder shirts as of now, but I have a feeling this summer I’ll be picking
up a few more.

Bandeaus: Lately I’ve been getting more and more into
bandeaus to wear under clothes that have either a deep v-neck or open sides.

Maxi Dresses: Yesterday I shared my love for maxi dresses in
my Temperance Indigo Collection dress, and today I’m sharing a bit more. I love
maxi dresses because they are comfortable and easy to wear while also always looking
so polished and elegant.

Flat Sandals: While I love heels, I almost always choose a comfortable flat sandal over a pretty but painful heel.

Love that top, super pretty! And I agree, comfort over everything especially in the dead heat of Summer! Luckily we aren't there yet so I can pretty much wear whatever I want
