with summer in full swing it’s time to pull out the super comfy t-shirt dress. and today’s ootd fits that bill. it’s perfect for when the temperatures soar into the eighties and you’re looking for chic ways to beat the heat. the t-shirt dress is also quite versatile as it can do double-duty as a stand-alone dress or beach cover-up – take your pick. another option, depending on the temperature, would be to throw it on over a pair of leggings or white denim jeans, add a stack of gold bangles and it’s summer fun. i kept the look simple today adding the only glitz from my metallic sandals. a fun summer tote completes the look and is the perfect size to throw in a beach towel, sunscreen and my latest summer read. and speaking of books, drumroll please, i’m happy to announce the lovely ladies that will be receiving an autographed copy of FAMILY TREES by Kerstin March. the lucky winners are: Carolyn Maffit and Susan Ryan. congratulations ladies, i know you will love this book.

Just can’t say it enough, I love love love your cute haircut. I’ll be doing the same thing one of these days. I can feel that the toe dipped in water felt great!
thanks, joni!
first of all, i have to say i have a fabulous stylist who always makes me look good! i’m 100% convinced that a great haircut makes all the difference, especially as we age. if you’re ever in san francisco i will give you her contact information, and then we could have lunch.
I just love San Fransisco and I’m in Seattle so that makes us sisters of sorts! Thanks for the invitation to meet for coffee….you just never know. 😉 I’ve had 4 blogger meet ups so far and they are very exciting.
Love that blue on you! By the way the last time I attempted to stick my tootsies into the water display I almost got arrested ! Can you imagine, I was so embarrassed, Lol, You got away with it you lucky girl I enjoy doing things like that its spontaneous and young too!
Aloha my friend
i’m laughing my heart out at the moment! i’m lucky our photo shoot was in a secluded section with only an occasional passerby. i imagine the water wasn’t as warm here in san francisco as in hawaii, but it was fun making a splash!
I love these pics! Also, this sounds like the perfect way to stock up on spring trends.
