Bohemian Pants with Denim Vest
There is a theme to some of my outfits this summer, and it is that they have a boho feel! I first shared these pants with a tan vest last year in this post, and this outfit has some similar vibes. Because the pants are so wide at the ankle, I like to have fitted or structured tops with it. The length also force me to wear high wedges with them, so I do not drag the pants on the ground. Today’s outfit turned out perfect for a mild day which was nice because otherwise the denim vest would have been too much.

I found another occasion to wear my suede like corset top! Again, I like it better with a layer on top even though it is perfectly modest without. All of the textures in this outfit create an interesting outfit! Notice the navy fringe purse? Just like the vest and top, it was thrifted last year.

A windy day makes for some picture retakes, but it is perfect for cooling off an already mild day. The boys played soccer and nerf guns with their neighbor friends and I was able to blog outside in the shade of my porch. Two of the boys had one last school related activity for the coming school year (band and STEAM programs) and summer officially started.
My goal for the summer is to find a balance for everyone: outside time (including pool time), reading times, play time, alone time. We all get cranky if we spend too much time together, but spending time together does build stronger relationships. I am actually laughing at my 7 year old’s vocabulary. He can be pretty eloquent even when playing a battle of nerf guns.

We started the summer with a vacation on Long Island and I am going to Arizona for a few days in July. I am thinking we can possibly end summer with a long weekend on somewhere. Then we have something to look forward just before going back to school and maybe our oldest can join us for that vacation. He is learning the responsibilities of having a job, but it would be fun if he could join us for that trip.

Otherwise, this summer will be low key with a couple day trips thrown in here and there. I am hoping to keep up some walking and running preferably early in the morning and late in the evening. I really noticed how much less I walked and ran last year from May to October.
A bientôt!

I’m in love with your bag. Strange how I love fringes and don’t own anything with it. Sounds like you have enough time to run and walk this summer. I like it better to have shorter trips and more often. Enjoy you weekend!

Definitely lots of free time this summer to do all the things!

I love this boho look, Mireille! That little fringed bag just seals the deal! I haven’t been to NYC in years, but I’d love to go back if even for a weekend. My kids all swam competitively in the summer so they were pretty beat during the day after two hour morning practices. Luckily, they were good at finding things to do they enjoyed. My boys never really got along until they were adults. They are soooo different from each other.

Your bohemian pants and denim vest outfit are so chic and comfortable, perfect for a mild day. It’s smart to balance the wide leg with a more fitted top. It is great you are focusing on a balanced summer for your family, that’s key to happy memories. You look amazing.
