kissing summer goodbye...i think.


what's my favorite thing this friday? these shorts. i'm not going to sit here and ramble on about how i can't believe it's almost the end of summer. you know what month & day it is, and if you've been outside in charlotte lately, you know the temps are still reaching up to 90 degrees. so as much as i would love to throw on a chunky sweater & booties (that i am eagerly awaiting to wear!), i still can't because that would be stupid. it's like being the girl who wears uggs & jean shorts. 


i've been shopping at vestique for years. this boutique and another from when i used to live in greensboro were the ones who turned me onto boutique shopping. i used to be a hardcore department store girl, but then my eyes were opened to this. i actually was wearing this outfit the night that lee and i got engaged - and how fitting.. i was wearing white.
 
vestique has stores in charlotte, raleigh, columbia, greenville, cary and is looking to open one in charleston, sc soon! it's expanded so fast and that can only mean girls take things off the hangers just as fast as they can keep them on there.
 
vestique also always has something new. i swear every time i go into their store or look online, they have new inventory. i love that! snag what you like while you have the chance!

this shirt is so comfortable, i get it confused with pajamas. and we all know the first thing i do when i get home is take off my work clothes and put on some pjs. so wearing this thing is like the best part of both worlds. and these shorts are amazing. so comfy & i've worn them a a few times with other colors. a dark or light teal - i've seen it both ways.
 
patterened pants and shorts have been a huge trend this year - i just ordered two more pairs of pants yesterday!
 
of course, no post would be totally complete without a photobomb from francesca. that girl is constantly trying ways to get on the blog.

ps: have you checked out @thebloggercloset on instagram ately? some awesome bloggers are taking over & i would love to have you next. found out how - here!
 
we're headed up to pigeon forge today for a mountain cabin weekend! this is my first time in a cabin - and yes, in case some of you are wondering from my initial debate - we are bringing toilet paper. happy friday!
