With summer officially here (and feeling like it too!) I’ve been living in dresses. From maxis to shifts, they have been my go-to, and with the cute new arrivals coming, I see no signs of me stopping. The minute I saw this breezy pattern shift dress, I knew it would be just the piece to spice up my summer dress routine. The colors (which are even prettier in person) reminded me of late summer sunsets and immediately made me happy. Every time I wear it out, I get so many compliments!

These baby blue sandals paired perfectly with this look. I kid you not, the blues are identical! I’ve been grabbing for this comfy pair since I received them, and they have not let me down. I’ve worn them with shorts, maxis and this adorable shift for a day of traveling in the city. If it keeps me blister free from subway to cab, I know I’ve found a keeper. When comfy and cute meet, it’s a fabulous thing, and Aerosoles just gets it. I just picked up this pair and am already planning bringing them with me to Napa later next month!

In other exciting shopping news – the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is almost here! It’s without a doubt the biggest and best sale of the season. Early Access starts July 14, which if you’re a Nordstrom Debit or Credit cardholder is when you can shop the sale early! I joined last year (I decided to go for the Debit – so I can easily set a budget), for this reason, but I also earn points when I shop there at anytime which leads to gift cards sent in the mail. Win win! If you’re not a Nordstrom cardholder (read all about it here) you have to wait until July 22nd to shop, but in my experience most of the pieces I want have been sold out by then.
