I am a huge, huge music fan and this summer I have quite a few shows to attend. I always want to look cute but be able to jump around and be comfortable throughout the evening. Here are a few outfits I put together that would be perfect options for this venue....

Summer beach totes on a budget
I have been searching for the perfect beach tote for the past 2 summers now. Last year I ended up purchasing an adorable one at the J. Crew outlet for about $20. The problem is, it barely holds anything, mainly a book, lotion and a water, I have had to squeeze my towel and magazines in there every time! So its now time to purchase a new tote that can carry everything from trashy magazines to a 6 pack! :)

Break a sweat & look cute doing it.
I'm a believer that if you look good it will help to build your self esteem. One of the most difficult places to have that confidence is the dreaded "gym". A few years ago I needed to revamp my gym getup from my boyfriends old T's and my umbros from high school. So here are a few staples that I currently own and are comfortable (especially the yoga pants), affordable and stylish....now get running!

Crossbody on a budget.
How many times are you out shopping with arm fulls of clothing and your shoulder is killing you because you have your usual " I can fit my life in here" bag on it? Or, you are out for the night, drink in hand ready to hit the dance floor but constricted because your bag keeps slowly falling lower and lower down your arm prohibiting you to bust a move? Alas, a trendy, yet stylish bag that saves your arms for more doing and less, well, "not" doing. Here are a few options that are within reason. FYI- my "reasoning" when it comes to bags is spend the extra $50 - $100, it will last longer, and yes people know what fake leather and imitations look like - you aren't fooling anyone honey! My pick is The Sak Convertable Clutch, great for everyday use!
The Sak:
Silverlake Leather Convertible Clutch - $139
Solana Drawstring $199
Kate Spade Gold Coast Lauralee - $265 - although very pricy this is great for a night out, dressy yet practical.
Piperlime -Orla Kiely Multi Scribble Stem Print Super Maxi Sling Bag - $178
This pattern is great and will go with almost anything!

What to wear to a semi-casual summer wedding?
I have been on the hunt for the perfect dress for a wedding in early July. It doesn't seem like it will be too fancy so therefore a slightly above the knee strapless or one strapped dress is the goal. I want something fun & stylish. I know its her day but who says I can't look good too?! I am loving the Rose Quartz dress from ModCloth, such cute details!
LuLu's - Bubble Dress $53
ModCloth (my new favorite site!)-1. Rose Quartz Dress $69.99 2. English Seaside Dress $49.99 (with great shoes and accessories this dress is amazing!)
Akira- Black Label - $66.90 ( This just may be the one, the back is perfect!)
