Resort Wear for Every Day for the Sunday Showcase
Welcome to the May Sunday Showcase! I know it is still April till tomorrow but hosting the link up today worked better for this month’s blog posts.I bought this crop ruffled top with summer in mind, beach vacation and a future trip to Costa Rica. Of course, though I like my clothes to work for other occasions, so I wanted to style it for everyday or a date night. I found this top at TJMaxx in the clearance section a few months ago and it originally was in a section where you could buy matching palazzo pants or skirts. Sadly, they did not have the skirts anymore when I found it so I settled for getting just the top.
Since I was styling this for everyday (and I usually don’t bear my belly when not at the beach), I chose a pair of high waisted jeans from Target to pair it with. My black block heeled sandals are so old, I don’t remember where I got them. I do not wear them often but they work well when I need some height and they are very sturdy.
My mom gave me these colorful earrings a few years ago and they are so pretty for summer months. I do need to fix one of them as it comes apart. The top can be worn on and off the shoulders when adds to its versatility.
I am looking forward to summer break now. This month is very busy for my teen with AP tests, SATs, and his junior Prom. Summer means less scheduling and later wake up times. June will be for vacation and day trips while July will be for day camps.
There are a few more weeks of soccer for one of the boys and then we can all relax. I would like to come up with a summer bucket list and include a few things each child would like to do. We just haven’t taken the time to sit down and discuss it yet.
I do love that the boys have great little friends in our cul de sac so there will be a lot of playing outside this month and the pool opens soon. We tend to go to the pool a lot the first month it is open. Sprinklers in the yard is always fun and the boys love to make popsicles.
Anything you are looking forward to this summer?
Hope you will link up your latest family friendly blog or IG post!

That’s such a lovely summery outfit. It’s still a little early here to wear items like you are wearing but soon!

I love this top with the white jeans! The white makes the colors pop, and the colors make the white pop! I love that you dress up for date nights…does your husband as well? I dress up, but my husband now considers jeans dressing up! Thanks for the link up!

His idea of dressing up is jeans and a nice shirt.

Love this look. I can’t wear white because of my dog, he jumps up for hugs. I must remember to pack some when I go away though as I have a few brand-new pairs 🙂 Thanks so much for hosting.

Yes, that would be a perfect time!

Thank you! I found a skirt yesterday from the same brand that reminds me of Chicwish skirts but less expensive and can’t wait to wear it.

So, I did finally buy something yesterday… a skirt by the same brand, same resort style, a really full maxi in bright green with tropical flowers: can’t wait to wear it: I do want to find a thrifted white belt to pair with it. Such a good deal: it was $20, I had $10 coupon and sold some birdfeeders so … free really =)

Thanks, I have some pretty spots near home to take pictures.

Perfect resort wear. Put that in your suitcase for dinners out in Costa Rica. It will be terribly hot and humid, though, so long pants might only be comfortable in the evening. I am thinking you’ve been there. Or maybe Beliz? My girls and I lived in Panama for a number of years and I would like to take them back while I am still able to remember – somewhat – where we lived. It’s a beautiful country but when we were there, it was quite primitive.

Yes, we went last year without the kids, same time of the year. I just bought a beautiful skirt at TJmaxx that will be perfect too if I want to dress up.
Alexandra
Great way to make this top work year ’round!
mimifce
Yes, I love making my clothes more versatile!

Oh this is super, I love the white jeans and you look amazing in them Mirielle. Thanks for joining my linkup, I appreciate it. Jacqui x

Thanks, Jacqui, I really like this pair!
Suzy Turner
That blouse is stunning on you, Mireille! I love it with the white high-waist jeans (I’d have done the same because I’m not a fan of showing too much skin around my belly either). Shame they didn’t have the matching skirt though, that would have looked super cute on you!
Big hugs

The colors are so awesome! You will love the skirt I will be sharing next Sunday Showcase. I call it my resort skirt!

That is such a cute top for warmer weather, and I think it looks so good with the white pants! 🙂 Perfect spring outfit, especially with those pretty earrings 🙂
Thank you for joining the Weekday Wear Link up!

I hope to find ways to wear it around here this summer.
