hello my friends are you looking at that


0:10

summer calendar and wondering where


0:14

all these events came from


0:16

your calendar is packed you've got


0:19

places to be and people to see and you


0:21

are wondering


0:23

what you are going to wear well guess


0:25

what we've got you covered i'm going to


0:27

run through some of my absolute favorite


0:29

summer event looks


0:31

everything from a little bit more dressy


0:34

for those weddings you got on your


0:35

calendar so maybe some fun


0:37

showers graduations or even a summer


0:40

concert and you're just needing a look


0:43

so let's start from the top i snagged


0:46

this dress because it is a little bit


0:48

i'm going to be honest a whole lot of a


0:51

dare for me but it was worth the dare


0:54

because i'm a little bit in love with


0:55

this guy so this is from velvet it leads


0:58

into a whole bunch of trends the first


1:00

trend being one shoulder the next being


1:03

that two piece and a little bit of


1:04

cutout and the third being tearing i


1:07

don't always love it when you mash up a


1:09

whole bunch of trends together but in


1:10

this one it works because it's


1:12

comfortable it's easy breezy and it's


1:14

really flattering so


1:16

lightweight got that great kind of


1:19

asymmetrical top which i think is so fun


1:21

for showing off a great statement


1:23

earring or that shoulder who doesn't


1:25

love their shoulders it's a great body


1:27

part to show off now this is the dare


1:29

part right this little bit of cutout now


1:32

the reason this works for me


1:34

is because of where it's hitting me now


1:36

it's not too low


1:38

so i'm not getting into like love handle


1:40

territory


1:42

it's covering up my actual tummy which


1:44

feels really good and just getting a


1:46

little slit of that high waist so


1:49

not to feel sexy but still feel


1:51

comfortable because i'm covered up and


1:53

then this fun full tiered skirt i am


1:57

heading to mexico in a few weeks and


1:59

this is absolutely going in my bag so


2:02

girls trip weekend getaway


2:05

anniversary trip


2:07

destination wedding whatever it might be


2:10

this to me feels like the absolute


2:12

perfect dress to get into your bag


2:15

similar vein kind of fun playful


2:18

unexpected dresses i've got a couple


2:20

more up my sleeve


2:23

two from a brand new vendor for us this


2:26

is from bash


2:28

i'm gonna show you this one because the


2:29

print is so


2:31

so stunning i absolutely love that


2:34

there's black woven into this this is a


2:36

really nice silhouette if you don't want


2:38

something super full if you like


2:40

something a little bit more shaped great


2:42

the neckline buttons down the front but


2:45

what makes this dress so yummy is that


2:47

incredible


2:49

seaming detail throughout the bodice and


2:53

yep that great smocking in the back that


2:55

really nips in your waist i also find it


2:59

can be hard to


3:00

nail a dress with sleeves this guy


3:03

absolutely does it now how to style this


3:05

casual with a slide dress it up and


3:08

elevate it with a great heel the shoots


3:10

that i have on today would be perfect


3:12

with this to really dress it up or you


3:14

can pop on a great little slide or even


3:16

a burke with this and it goes uber


3:18

casual


3:20

similar spirit to that dress with just a


3:23

little bit more movement and fluidity is


3:26

this gorgeous dress also from bash


3:29

the neckline no buttons on this one so


3:32

you're just getting one straight line i


3:34

love this on pure line here around the


3:37

waist to really give you some nice shape


3:39

what i think is stunning about this and


3:41

the little unexpected twist is this


3:43

great slit down the back now


3:46

how to wear this with a bra well you've


3:48

got a couple options number one is you


3:50

can number one you can do that great


3:53

kind of backless bra there's so many


3:55

options out there kind of hold you up


3:58

number two find yourself a beautiful bra


4:01

so something that has a really pretty


4:02

back to it be it lace and maybe a front


4:05

closure so you're not seeing that


4:06

closure in the back number three you can


4:09

also wear a really lovely lace bodysuit


4:12

underneath this just so that you're


4:13

covering up that hole so lots and lots


4:16

of ways to wear this you don't feel like


4:18

you have to go totally bare you can


4:20

actually slip something on but i love


4:22

that little sneak peek i think that's so


4:24

darn pretty


4:25

now what makes this dress i'm wearing


4:27

kind of fun is that there is a hint of


4:29

kind of tropical vibes to this right but


4:32

if you are wanting more color lots of


4:34

ways to do that


4:36

one more amazing dress from bash and i


4:39

grabbed this one because of that very


4:40

reason this yummy yummy color now this


4:42

would be so fun


4:44

for a shower i also think this would be


4:46

so comfortable for a graduation so if


4:48

you're going to graduation where you're


4:50

sitting on the lawn no shade lots of sun


4:53

four hours waiting for that one kiddo to


4:56

walk across the stage this is a great


4:59

one to pop on


5:01

fun detailing here around the waist to


5:03

give you some nice shape and that


5:04

crisscross bodice which we know is so so


5:07

flattering


5:08

the sleeve is single layer so it's still


5:11

really airy but it gives you some nice


5:12

coverage and a little bit shorter length


5:15

to show off those dams


5:18

now if you are looking for something


5:20

maybe in that more


5:23

kind of graduation party


5:26

versus graduation ceremony kind of luck


5:28

meaning you want to be casual but still


5:30

put together you're attending as a guest


5:33

versus being the host


5:35

there are lots of fun options for you


5:37

out there but one of my favorite


5:38

combinations right now is taking a great


5:40

bold statement top and pairing it back


5:42

to a pair of white denim


5:45

easy


5:46

flawless classic and lots of ways to


5:49

style it a couple really great tasks


5:52

that beautiful dress i showed you also


5:54

comes in a top print this is simple it


5:57

is a just stunning blouse buttons down


6:00

the front what makes this undoubtedly is


6:02

that beautiful print and the way they've


6:05

worked in some of that great


6:07

contrast detail
