One classic combination that always seems to work for me is a black and white polka dot piece! It's professional enough for work and business casual events yet playful enough for a relaxed day with friends, so you really can't go wrong :)
I feel like I've completely forgotten about my dresses this summer - the weather in Madison has been so unpredictable that oftentimes I dress for practicality (read: yoga pants + sweatshirts) instead of wearing all of the pretty dresses I actually own! Summer in Wisconsin is so short though that I really need to get back on the sundress bandwagon :) What are some of your favorite go-to combinations? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Dress Turned Skirt! ♥

Ever look at your closet and feel like you have nothing to wear even though there's an entire rack full of clothes in front of you? This happens to me all the time! It's so easy to fall into the same routine of wearing the same outfits and just getting plain sick of all your clothes! That's why I'm always looking for more creative ways to re-style the clothes I already have. I find that this gives me a greater appreciation for what already exists in my closet - and it saves me money, too, since it prevents me from buying more clothes I don't need!
The blue skirt in this outfit is actually a dress underneath and I almost like it better as a skirt when it’s paired with this stripey crop top! Despite owning approximately 1000 dresses (it’s an unhealthy addiction, I know) I own only a couple of skirts - but with this new strategy of re-styling my dresses as skirts, I think I’ll be styling more dresses turned skirts into my outfits! What are your favorite ways to re-style pieces in your closet? I’d love to hear your thoughts!
Petsitter Casual ☺

As many of you might know, I spend 99% of my free time with animals! Between my own critters, my foster kittens, and all of the animals I petsit for - these sweet animals have essentially become my second family! This means I need some majorly pet-proof clothing, especially on the days where I'm running around walking 5 dogs in a single day!
So, instead of running to my normal go-to dresses, I've challenged myself to find casual, cute combinations that can power through an active, fur-filled day. This combination has become one of my favorites: some good jeans, a basic tee, and boat shoes ♥ What are your favorite casual summer combinations? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
