Summer Saturdays

Summer is filled with many things to do, and this summer I have been trying to make sure I get to spend lots of time with my amazing mum. One of our favorite things to do is to get up early on a Saturday morning and head to the farmers market. We always leave with great fresh produce and some sort of treat from a food truck.

On this specific visit, I decided to indulge in some of summer's most wonderful gifts; sunflowers and corn. If you know me at all you'll know that flowers and sweet corn are two of my favorite things. Luckily, God blessed my home state with a whole lot of both (especially in the summer). To me, flowers are a source of happiness, life, and pure beauty, so when I see beautiful blooms they're hard to pass up. Sunflowers have an obvious way of brighting a room, not just because of their yellow color, but because of their size too and these did exactly that.

With that being said, the outfit that accompanied me on this trip consisted of a ruffled sleeveless blouse, loafers, and some statement earrings (oh and of course my monogram necklace!).

My top is from Madewell (surprise). It has a ruffle detail in the front, and is stitched with red and while thread to create a great pinkish summer hue.

Now let's talk loafers. I absolutely adore the idea of loafers. They're practical yet stylish, comfortable yet classy, and the perfect addition to almost any outfit. These medium-brown loafers are actually extremely affordable. They can be found for under $30 at Old Navy. I bought a pair while I was at school in Bloomington and wore them everyday, so I decided to purchase a second pair for the day these guys see their last. I love these loafers so much that I didn't want to ever be without a pair. For their price point, they are an absolute must-have.

Additionally, my pants are from Old Navy. I am a stickler for comfortable and well-fitting pants because of my job, but sometimes you need just an affordable pair. I love the light-khaki shade of these pants and their lovely high-rise which gives a more flattering and comfortable silhouette.

Finally, on to the accessories. My earrings are from J. Crew and are amazing. I have worn these earrings for all sorts of occasions, from a date party to the farmers market, and they've never failed to draw a complement. Additionally, I finished the look with my gold monogram necklace and my Fossil watch.

**For the Indy readers, if you're looking for a good farmers market to visit, I tend to alternate between going to The Market at Hague and Broad Ripple Farmers Market.
