The red and white striped body suit will make sure that you never have to worry about keeping your top tucked in and the light fabric means you’ll be cool. The Old Navy espadrilles lend a touch of blue to the outfit without making it look like a costume

I’m generally not a pink or pastel kind of gal. Usually, I flock to bold colors, but this season I am really drawn to petal pink! Just yesterday, I found some really great pieces at Ann Taylor Loft. I paired a petal pink top with a black animal print skirt and it looks fantastic. I also bought a super cute petal pink silk dress with black piping at the neck. For shoes, I’m going with a pair of tall wedges.

If you want to pair the pink with a color besides black, try gray, navy or olive. I would however, stay away from a double dose of pink.

Here are my fab outfits. What do you think?

Summertime is here, so get your floral dresses ASAP! Even if you’re not going on an exotic summer vacation to some fantastic tropical location, you can still look the part in a flirty floral dress. These are great for stylish daytime look or even a late afternoon party. I love these dresses with a great pair of wedges and an over-sized tote.
