There is nothing I love more than enjoying ice cream on a hot summer day. I have a few favorites from chocolate chip, butter pecan, and the classic Neapolitan. When I saw this swan pleat jumpsuit I could only think of ice cream. The pink, vanilla, and chocolate color-block adds playful volume to an otherwise structured suit. Classic pumps elongate your legs while the nude patent leather complements the hidden chocolate panel adding a shiny texture. A sequined bag adds all the shine and sparkle that is missing in this simply chic look. Simple pearl stud earrings top off this look that is perfect for a day in the 'Windy City'.

Y O U R E V E R Y D A Y G I R L meets R I S EOne of the trends I wanted to try all winter was the men's suit that is trending. I was ecstatic when I rescued this retro jumpsuit from the pits of Dig & Save. Thankfully it is in my size and is in perfect condition without sign of wear or staining. I really like the balance of femininity and menswear because it can make you feel strong and powerful. Nowadays there are many women who are the breadwinner of the family. This shows women are stronger than ever, we can really do anything we want if we set our minds to it. When working with a longer pant keep in mind that you want to keep a tall and lean look. Nude sandals are nice and simple. I love this clutch with its floral embroidery on a black backdrop that gives a feminine touch. I am obsessed with needlepoint style embroidery or most commonly known as "Grandma’s Couch" fabric, this is a technique that dates back thousands of years to ancient Egypt. Any good business woman knows to have a watch handy in any given situation. I chose a skinny black watch because it is feminine and sleek perfect for this polished look. Aviators are pretty universal shape, I believe anyone can pull them off and they are great for blocking the sun and staying mysterious. Red lips usually never go wrong and it is always fun to wear lipstick so grab one you like to top off your look. Woman In Black Your Everyday Girl Tip : With these large buttons on the sleeves not much jewelry is needed. I added a watch and cameo ring on opposite hands as well as small stud earrings. As the old saying goes, less is more. Jumpsuit: Vintage Heels: Zara Clutch: Vintage Ring: Sarah Coventry Watch: Anne Klein
We all love them! If you have yet to try one I would suggest a cookies and crème macaroon from Madison Sweets, it’s my favorite. I am all about fun prints expanding from animal prints and actual prints of individual animals to bicycle prints, and of course the classic floral. With its soft shades of pink and mint green ideal for a fresh feel, this macaroon print is perfect for a comfortable transition from sprint to summer. In my opinion the best romper is made of cotton, has a cute print, and flows with the wind. I also love a silk romper for a nicer occasion, but for your everyday comfy romper cotton is the way. I chose to accentuate the pink on this print with a strappy sandal ideal for walking or standing at work. To keep it neutral a beige bag complements this color scheme perfectly, of course it is a Dooney and Bourke bag. A dainty necklace is always great when it sits right at your necklace adding a very delicate look, and sparkly earring and jeweled ring give a little shine that is always nice.

O V E R A L L SThe dungaree is a laid back piece with a vintage feel that you can easily throw on and walk out the door on a summer day. In my opinion overalls are ideal for any cookouts and outdoor activities. I really like the extra pocket room the bib-like flap provides, I can even hang my glasses from it. With an endless possibility of styles to choose from you will be sure to find one to make your own. It may be tough choosing between floral, linen, and the classic denim. You also have the options of a shortall, skirtall, and a capri overall. In my opinion any short sleeve top might do. I chose a bicycle print V-neck for a dash of fun. Comfortable shoes are a summer must if you plan on walking and enjoying the outdoors. These Camper shoes look young and fun with the perfect pop of candy apple red. Aside from being adorable, these shoes are perfectly comfortable with its thick layer of cushion I can barely feel a step. To top this casual look a Dooney and Bourke nylon backpack ideal to hold all your necessaries. Happy Memorial Day!
