It’s been awhile since I’ve done an outfit post… I’m going to chalk it up to a combination of moving most of my outfit photos to Instagram and just plain falling out of the habit.  But today – lucky you! – I shoved the camera in The Spouse’s hands and asked for a quick pic before we headed off to church.

Dress: New York & Co., 100% cotton, thrifted – love the color and the pockets!  Fit ‘n’ flare is not my favorite silhouette, thought, so it’s my placeholder summer blue dress while I look for something a little more fitted on the skirt.  (Plus it shrunk in the wash so it’s a little shorter than I’d like.  Turns out when they say “tumble dry low” they mean LOW.)

White denim jacket: J. Crew, thrifted – perfect for air conditioned spaces but definitely a bit heavy for our outside Atlanta heat these days

Leopard print belt: J. Crew, thrifted – the perfect touch to pull it all together and put a smile on my face

Sandals: Clark’s, bought with birthday money lo these many years ago

I love this royal blue + white combo – how summery it looks – and the unexpected leopard that makes it interesting.  Good thing I took these pics before church since my toddler proceeded to smear sunscreen all over the dress while getting her pre-church energy out running around outside.

What’s your go-to summer combo?  And do you long for the return of the outfit post?  Happy to do them more frequently if y’all miss seeing them!
