Go to Summer Look + Spiel the Beans Linkup
Welcome to the Spiel the Beans Linkup today where Katy and I are hosting a Go To Summer Look! We would love for you to linkup yours!
Unfortunately, the pictures I really took to show off are loaded onto my Mac which is at the doctor. I never expected it would still be receiving some CPR as the problem seemed minor but it is what it is and you will have to suffer through these low quality photos from my Instagram. If you love low quality photos you should totally follow me there. 😉
While I dream of my go to summer look being all yoga pants and flip flops, I still have work to do and they kind of expect me to still look like I try! Here are a couple of my favorite looks to battle the Texas Summer but also keep from freezing in the office.
These little swing dresses have been my new best friend! I love how easy they are to throw on. Once I add some jewelry and a great pair of wedges I’m ready to tackle the day. This particular color is no longer available but there is now a burgundy stripe that I seriously just added to my cart and I’m now debating about this little embroidered number too! Some days I’ll grab a blue jean jacket, as shown in this post, just to be sure I stay comfortable in meetings. My new obsession has been stripes on stripes. Unfortunately this clutch sold out for the 2nd time since I received it but I’ve linked another super cute one below.
Stella & Dot Picks
Capris, a lightweight patterned top and a simple cardigan all pulled together with my favorite floral wedges and I’m feeling confident and ready for the day. I ordered this Reina Necklace and didn’t have super high expectations but I have found myself grabing for it more and more. It also can be worn as a wrap bracelet and the colors are so fun.
Finally one of my favorite looks for the office on those days when my legs are not quite ready for showing off! I ordered this maxi last spring for TCU baseball and I have loved wearing it. The chevron pattern is flattering and this day I added the blue jean vest which I really loved.

And finally, when the work day is done, my go to for after hours is a pair of my favorite 5″ J. Crew Factory shorts in a fun color paired with a cute top like this one from my last Stitch Fix! Of course the cute clutch and a great glass of whine makes this outfit just right!

We have similar styles… I'm loving swing dresses this summer too!
Darling, fabulous and fun! You inspire me so!!
I always love your outfits. I am also pretty sure that I NEED a denim vest for this upcoming school year. I like that you paired it with the maxi for work. As always, thank you for hosting this fun link up!
You always look fabulous! The maxi with denim vest is my FAV!
I couldn't imagine you in yoga pants…I mean you are always so super stylish!
Great summer outfits! A denim vest is such a great addition to a summer outfit! I also love the pink cardigan! Great color & it looks great with the polka dot top!

You have the best clothes. I am loving that pop of color with the black and white polka dots, so much fun.
Work or play, I always love your oufits you put together! They all look great!
Seriously I'll just take one of everything in your closet. I have that swing dress in red and white stripes, love it, so comfy. I want all the swing dresses!
I agree! She really does.
You are so stinkin' cute! No one has more Sizzlin Summer Style than you!! Love that maxi with the vest!!
Love all of your outfits!!!

I love the purple maxi dress! I'm not usually a purple person, but I love the denim vest with it. I also like how you're still sporting team colors, without screaming horned frogs!! Those floral wedges are precious, too!
I love the JCrew Chinos!! Always love how you put everything together and enjoy your Insta photos!! I have to do another Stitch Fix soon!
Lol…I seriously just commented the same on your post! J. Crew Chinos are the best!
Haha….I was definitely not the typically horned frog fan! It worked out nicely because my Littles school colors here are purple and black too. I am so hoping I can have the floral wedges repaired…they are coming apart and I'm pretty much shattered. lol
Thanks Jaymie! Loved all you linked today!
Ha! Sizzlin is about right the past few days here.
You are too sweet Sarah. I am really good at faking it well! I seriously do not know how Iived before the swing dress. I saw the red stripe today online..only left in petite but I'm super excited to see the burgundy…because…Aggie football will so be here soon!!
Ahh…thank you so much sweet Vanessa!
Thank you Beth. And to think I stand in my closet so many mornings wondering what in the heck I have to wear.
Thank you Sarah!!
Andrea I really never thought I needed a blue jean vest and I've found so many ways to wear it!
Haha….Amanda, I will admit it would probably only take two or three days and I would be done with the yoga pants. 🙂
Thanks sweet friend. i wish it was easier!!
I have been really shocked at how many ways I've found to wear the denim vest.
We definitely do…must be a taller girl thing right? I'm so wondering how I made it so long without a swing dress!!
You know I love a striped dress! They are perfect for every occasion from work to casual to a do-nothing lazy day! Really fabulous looks!
Don't forget to come link up On the Edge of the Week!

Cannot go wrong with a striped dress…totally agree! I use to think I couldn't wear horizontal stripes….boy was I missing out. Thanks for the linkup info…not sure how I have not caught that before. You've officially been added to my link up page!
These are all such fun summer looks! I especially love the one with the pink cardigan and polka dot blouse–what a cute look! I hope your computer gets better soon… I know I'd be going crazy! 🙂
All great summer looks, I always love seeing those fun floral shoes on you!
Thank you for being a part of TBT Fashion link up and hope to see you soon!

Alice I am so sad….my shoes are on their last leg I'm afraid! I am crossing my fingers they can be repaired. Hope you are having a super week!
Hi Shea! It is one of my fave combos too and not sure why I haven't put them together more often. My computer is all better! Some weird something that I couldn't fix…thank goodness for IT guys right? Have a great week!
