the summer jacket

||Sheinside Khaki Contrast Leather jacket c/o| Viva la Jewels crystal statement necklace | Shop Lately dress (old) c/o similar | Michael Kors heels (old) similar - over $100 similar - under $100 || 

I am here with a rare Thursday post because of the holiday tomorrow! I am so looking forward to this shortened day at work and a day off tomorrow. I hope you all have a fabulous Fourth spent with loved ones!

All Fall and Winter long I was obsessed with my (Minus The) Leather Jacket from Express.  As it has gotten warmer, I have not felt like an all black leather jacket was really appropriate. Most days I do not need a jacket, but if Tyler and I are going to a movie or a restaurant I like to dress in layers in case it is cold. I've struggled to find the appropriate jacket that could be worn with multiple different outfits. Then I stumbled across this beauty from Sheinside. It  is the perfect jacket because it still gives me a touch leather, but since it is not all leather I feel like it can work for more seasons. Seriously, in love. (psst... it looks expensive but is only $30!)

This necklace from Viva la Jewels is such a standout piece, that I wanted to keep my hair off of my shoulders and put all the focus on it. I normally would have just gone with a top knot, but I decided to try the Heidi Hair as inspired by MK of The Gold Hatted Lover. I love how it looks and love that it honestly takes me less than five minutes to do!

Happy Fourth!

 I would love it if you would follow me on GFC or Bloglovin'!

    That jacket is so beautiful ! I can't believe the price!! I la la love statement necklaces! I love how you decided to wear you hair up to emphasize the necklace. Btw you nailed that hairstyle... when ever I try and braid my hair like this it always looks like my head went through a blender lol. Also, this pink dress is stunning!!

    If you get a sec, I would love to get your thoughts on my latest
