LBD

 Summer has finally arrived in Southern California!  I went running this morning at 8:00 am and it was already 80 degrees and it did not get any cooler as the day went on.  Needless to say, I ran very slowly and it was one of the toughest runs in a long time.

I had the day off today to run errands and wanted to be sure I would stay cool & comfy.  The LBD (long black dress) came calling.  My love for maxi dresses are endless - so effortlessly chic and 100% comfy.  Don't be surprised if you see more maxi dress post as the heat wave continues.

Do you have a go to outfit for hot days?



I am trying out new pose to show the jewelry but I think I should wait till I get my hair colored :)  I can totally see the grey hairs screaming at me.

    1. Thanks Rebecca! I think CA summer just comes later. It stays fairly warm till October. It's tough to have a late summer since all the stores are putting out the fall line when I am barely cracking my summer clothes.

  2. I love the angles of the photos you're showing here. No color needed yet! ;)
    I feel the same way about maxi dresses. Perfect for the heat. I only have one, but with two maxi skirts I can usually rotate them enough so I don't get tired of them. I'm always looking for more though.
