You guys probably know how much I love all things lace by now so this top didn’t stand a chance not belonging in my closet.  The crochet detailing is just beautiful and gives a peek of the shoulder along with a subtly sexy criss-cross design in the back (see picture below).  The fabric is light and flowy, and I just love how easy it is to wear!

 

A few other similar navy crochet tops:

Bright colors are also a signature part of my style so even though I went with monochromatic top and bottom pairing, I added bold splashes of pink in my accessories.  I found these pink tassel earrings and love how it mixes vintage with a bit of whimsy!  At just $40, they’re a total steal (and comes in 5 colors!).

I’ve also had my eye on a striped summer tote and regretted not picking one up for last summer.  When I noticed this striped one with the cutest pom-pom and tassel charm, I knew it was meant to be.  I’ve been using it on weekends as it’s the perfect carry-all size for me to throw everything in when I’m with the kids. #momlifeFor a few other totes I’m loving:
