School is starting this week for most of our kids, and the weather has turned a bit cooler these past few mornings. Fall is around the corner but you know we always get a bit of a warm streak. Cool California mornings that warm up mid afternoon. It can be tough to figure out what to wear on those days but I’ve got some ideas for you.

Shorts are pretty much a must, but of course whatever length is up to you. I prefer Bermuda type shorts that hit around my knee.

If you have a casual day try pairing your shorts with a hoodie and sneakers.

Or try a colorful oversized sweater with a tee or tank underneath.

Meeting some friends for lunch? Pair a crocheted sweater, shorts and some gladiator sandals for a put together look that’ll keep the chill off in the morning but won’t be super hot in the afternoon.

A jean jacket is a great option. Try pairing it with a pair of tan shorts and a fun graphic tee.

But of course your jean jacket doesn’t have to be the traditional blue; choose a black jacket and pair it with some fantastic flats.

Have fun with your wardrobe! Use layers to dress for the weather but keep in mind to put the whole outfit together as a cohesive look. You don’t want to loose the look you’ve set out to achieve once you take a layer off!

What is better than soft, cozy pajamas? Soft, cozy pajamas that you can also bring and wear at your boudoir photo shoot!

Now, I’m not talking about some long pants and long sleeved ratty shirts, even though they be your most comfortable pair of pj’s. Two piece pajamas can be comfortable and can be sexy for your photo shoot.

Look at this amazing pajama set. I’m seriously considering adding this to my closet. It looks so comfortable and I love the detail in the neckline.

Soma In Bloom Penny Lane Cami Shorts Pajama Set

Here’s another set from the same company, Soma Intimates.

Soma In Bloom Idlewild Cotton Cami/Shorts Pajama Set

Aren’t those both great?! So comfy looking yet would look great at your photo shoot with Danea.

I love the ruffles on the top of this one.

Three Graces London Francis and Ariel pyjama set

The eyelash lace that this set is trimmed in haps elevate it to a more sophisticated look, even though it’s still pj’s.

The layered shorts and the flow top of this outfit would be so comfortable to sleep in, and sexy for your photo shoot.

Flora Nikrooz 2-Piece Camisole Sleep Set

Now of course you don’t have to go with something like I posted, choose something that is more your and your style! That’s probably one of the most important things when choosing items for your photo shoot; if you’re not comfortable in it you are going to think of that every time you see your photos. Who wants that?!! If something like this is more your style, go for it! Danea will still help you look and feel amazing.

I hope I’ve helped you consider some ideas a bit out of the box for your photo shoot. There’s nothing that says you have to purchase anything new, or bring lingerie (even though most women do). Choose what your comfortable in!

Lace dresses have been trending lately, and I love showing you what’s in style currently. I love that there are many different shapes and styles of lace dresses out there, so you can definitely find something that suits you.

I love that you can find a beautiful bold colored lace dress to wear.

And I love that you can find a long sleeve style.

This two tone dress is amazing!

If you prefer color over neutrals but don’t was something super bright, check out this gorgeous green lace dress.

But if you do prefer something bright, check out this pink dress.

Maybe you prefer just a hint of lace instead of a full lace dress, don’t worry, there’s a dress for you too.

I love that this dress is a bit longer than most, and that it’s lined then sheer at the bottom. This dress would be a great choice for a spring or summer date night.

What’s your style of lace dress? Do you prefer something a bit fancy, or more casual? Bright colored or neutral?

Piggy backing on a post from a few weeks agoÂ about how a little detail can really make an outfit, today I’m going to feature another detail.

Today’s detailed piece of clothing is detailed jeans. So simple but it really changes the look and feel of an outfit. What’s nice about purchasing your jeans with the rips or distressed look already there is that they are placed inÂ strategic areas.

Ripped jeans can look sloppy, but if you pair them correctly you can look amazing.

Pair them with a casual v-neck top and some flat sandals for an easy going everyday look. To this I would add a light necklace, maybe an under shirt, and some bangles.

Another way to pair your ripped jeans is to wear them with that new off the shoulder top you purchased after last weeks blog (right?!). I have to say I am not a fan of showing your bra but for some reason I thinkÂ it works with this top.

It doesn’t take much of a ripped look in your jeans, sometimes a little goes a long way. And I am in love with this top.

But if you are feeling that maybe a little rip in the knee isn’t enough, feel free to find a pair of ripped jeans that suit your taste and style. Maybe these are more up your alley. Pairing them with the heels in this outfit helps bring this into a nicer look.

Who says your ripped denim has to be the typical blue? It doesn’t.

What do you prefer? A few rips or tons? Blue denim or colored denim? How do you like to pair your ripped denim?

Sometimes it’s the simple things that can add some flair to your outfit or even change your mood. Something such as, hmm I don’t know, an off the shoulder top or dress for instance.

An off the shoulder blouse can add that little something extra to your look or that spark to your day. This type of blouse can be worn with a variety of bottoms.

Try pairing with complimentary colored shorts for a fantastic summer look.

Feel free to dress up a luxurious off the shoulder top with an equally amazing skirt for an upscale event or party.

Of course it’s so easy to pair with jeans, which would be my style 😉

I love the color of this blouse and pairing it with the wedges is such a great idea.

A bright colored top looks great with a dark wash denim.

If an off the shoulder blouse isn’t your top choice but you like the idea, what about an off the shoulder dress?!

I have to admit that I am in love with this dress, there’s something about the pattern that I just love.

And of course the always popular black option. Do wear something with a bit of color to jazz it up. A fun shoes, bright necklace, or a wrist full of bracelets.

What do you prefer ladies, an off the shoulder blouse or dress?

Holy cow it has been hot here the last few days! When we get weather like this that stays hot for a few days in a row, all I can think of wearing is something lightweight, breathable, and cool. Jean shorts can be hot and uncomfortable. If you agree and are wanting a different option, try linen or cotton shorts.

What I like about these type of shorts is that they can be patterned or a solid color. This type of fabric is so lightweight and soft, exactly what you want on these hot days.

A patterned pair can be fun to wear, and some even have tassels or fringe to add to the fun look.

I just love how these shorts can be for a casual look

Or can be more of a dressed up but still casual look

A few more of my favorite ideas on how to wear these shorts is to pair it with a lightweight kimono for those cooled down nights

Even paired with an off the shoulder top for an ultimate summer look

What’s your favorite? Do you prefer to wear these fantastic lightweight shorts as opposed to denim?

Every woman should have a few staples in her closet, the Little Black Dress (LBD) should be one. But what about another dress option, the Little White Dress?!! You haven’t thought about that, have you?! Today I’m going to make you contemplate buying one of these pretty dresses to add to your wardrobe.

A Little White Dress is a great option because since it’s a neutral you have so many different options in ways to wear it. The first step is to buy the silhouette that flatters your body. After that, let’s look at how to style it.

An off the shoulder dress is a fantastic option for these warm summer months.

Try pairing it with some gladiator sandals.

Eeek I love this one! A lightweight cardigan, a fantastic patterned belt that ties in with the shoes!! This is one fantastic outfit.

Of course you can always wear white with white.

Light colored accents can be just as great as bright ones. I love this blue bag and the long sweater is amazing paired with this LWD.

Of course feel free to wear those bright colored heels. They’ll look amazing.

Do you have a Little White Dress in your wardrobe? How do you prefer to wear it? Do you pair it with light colors or add a bright pop of color? Can’t wait to hear from you!
