Summer is finally here!! It’s bright, it’s green, and it’s kind of warm. The only crap part is there are storms every single night. I’m pretty sure lightning hit our house the other night because the electricity turned off in two of our bedrooms downstairs and now will not turn back on. I shouldn’t be complaining though, I cannot believe the floods going on all over the place. It’s insane! But back to summer thoughts. Summer is creeping along, so I’m continuously looking for dresses to wear throughout the summer. Shift dresses are my favorite because they hang just right and make you feel airy and breezy down unda’!

I’ve been trying to find jeans shorts that fit this year and haven’t found much of anything. My body seems to change every year so any of the jean shorts that I bought last year and had altered to fit me, now don’t fit very well. What in the hell? So I’ve been on the hunt for skirts and dresses since I know those will always fit. But these shorts made me believe I can find shorts that fit! They are comfortable in the waist, soft, long enough in the front and back, but still short enough that they don’t make me feel like I’m wearing mom jeans. Naaaaahmean?

Who Needs Jean Shorts?!
This was a comfy, casual Memorial Day bbq outfit. It smelled great until a baby’s diaper leaked on it. Lovely, just lovely. Sometimes, I think I could have a baby…then one pees on me and my whole viewpoint changes. Maybe it’s different when it’s your own child’s pee? Idontknowman.

I told you I’m just pretty much only into dresses nowadays. Found this dress on the sale rack at Express and love the length and pops of color. AND it’s stretchy. Stretchy is a good thing when summer bbq’s are a weekly occurrence. I just can’t stay away from dips. I can’t do it!!!!

Love these looks! They are perfect for a Colorado summer.
Love, love that floral dress on you! It’s such a perfect length too and pairing it with a bun is beautiful!
You’re so fab, Juli! You mentioned getting shorts altered… Do you have a good tailor in Denver? I’ve been super disappointed with the two I’ve visited here so far. Thanks!
i always go to cherry creek tailors in cherry creek right next to the cherry cricket! they are awesome. I don’t know prices of other tailors but i think they are on the more expensive side, but totally worth it. it cost more to alter my jean shorts then it did to buy them but you would never know they were altered, just tailoring in the waist is a bit expensive
You look beautiful! I love that first dress on you – the color is perfect!
ok…really stupid question,but what type of bra are you wearing under the pink dress? I have found several cute strapy dresses but didn’t buy them because of bra issues– I felling like I’m always pulling up strapless bras. Nikki
i use sticky bras!
Holy crap, I miss sticky bras! And those little petal sticker things. They were the best; I had so many cute strapless and backless tops. You do one little thing like have a kid and breastfeed her for 18 months…and suddenly your 34Cs are 34DDDs and there isn’t a sticky bra in the world that can wrangle those tigglebitties! 😉
No kidding! I’d need something akin to KT tape for your boobs!
I need to stop reading these posts because I seriously want to buy all the things every week 🙂
What do you use to get those awesome waves in your hair??? I have been trying to achieve that look with my curling iron and it just doesn’t come out like that. Curling wand?
Oh that red bag!! Where is it from? #wantitnow#
I agree with above, your hair always looks fab!
That last dress – is just stunning on you! Denim shorts are such a night mare for me to find ones that fit..I’ve given up.
