Summer Resolution: Wear More Dresses

With all these designer haute couture collections this week, they have inspired me to make an improvement for my spring/summer wardrobe. I have decided to make it my summer resolution to wear a dress daily (or as often as possible). This winter has me itching for spring and I'm ready to break out the florals and some sandals. I am NOT a winter person in the least bit, and feel like I don't have any 'pow' outfits for this season, if you will. So this spring, I'm going to expend all my styling energy that has been stored up this winter into vivant, cutesy outfits. Below I have made a styling wishlist for an ideal week during this summer (excluding work days, special occasions, and internship outfits).


Monday: H&M
Tuesday: Charlotte Russe
Wednesday: Forever 21
Thursday: Net-a-porter.com - Tibi
Friday: ASOS
Saturday: J.Crew
Sunday: ASOS


Do you have a summer resolution? If so, what would it be?

    thanks for your sweet comment. in answer to your question my shop is going to stock second hand, mint-condition designer/high end high street clothing, but i know a lot of independant boutiques stock things from people like you who design their own clothes. in the future i'll probably consider doing this, but if you yourself aren't sure you want to sell your things yet my advise would be to keep it as something you do for you. the minute you make a hobby your life it loses the personal enjoyment. i guess if you do, then just go into places near you and ask! the worst that can happen is they say no. Go for it if you love making clothes! or start selling online!

    Ugh, winter is so long and terrible! I feel your hatred.

    I love all of the vintage inspirations in the summer pieces.

    My summer resolution has nothing to do with fashion but I want to get my butt to the lake at least once every two weeks. It's not too much to ask for!!
