Bright Bags

1. Light Knits

2. Bright Bag

3. Neutral Headband

4. Gold Bangles

5. Tan Platforms

6. Boyfriend Jeans

A bright bag can always be used in the fall (I sometimes break every fashion law there is and use it in the winter as well). Just keep the rest of the outfit light and neutral and the bag can be the center of attention.

Rainy Days

1. Comfy Shirt

2. Trendy Trench

3. Stretchy Denim

4. Ikat Print Scarf

5. Full Coverage Umbrella

6. Hunter Boots

I woke up to a cold rainy day, and I was quite annoyed by it to be quite honest.  Summer to me is about hot beautifully sunny days and this was just not going to cut it.  So I threw on waterproof shoes got a hot latte (so disappointing) and walked out into the what can only be described as icky weather. 

  

Rainy days call for cute basics but since I cannot stand getting wet I require quite a few precautionary pieces.  Number one, my hunters.  I could not live without these.  Living on a college campus with a lot of puddles, these get the job done in style.  Plus pick up some of the cute fleece inserts and you have your winter boot! The bubble umbrella serves the same purpose, except it protects your hair from that unattractive frizzy thing it does when it gets rained on.  Lastly, I am obsessed with the Ikat print.  I have purchased 2 bathing suits, a dress seen here and a scarf all with the print this summer.  It gives the perfect amount of pop that an outfit needs without being over the top. 

Bottom Line: make sure your rainy day essentials keep you dry but still keep your style with a few pops of color!

As summer nears to a close (sniffle) I realized that I have not done ONE post on an outfit.  I will try to rectify this; however, most of my time not spent at work revolves around me in a bathing suit which is not exactly worth sharing.  Until then, here is a couple of ways to inspire your summer wardrobe, NoFo style.
