Zebra Print Dress With Light Blue Trim

 I have had this zebra print dress for years; it was a Goodwill find. I just rediscovered it hanging in my closet, and decided to wear it for a day out shopping.  I love the zebra print.  I recently posted a look in another zebra print dress, but that one is maxi-style.

I like the interest the blue trim adds.  For this look, I added black gladiator sandals; three, layered necklaces; and a very unique pocketbook that is made from recycled tires, and looks like a spider web. It smells very strongly of rubber, but it's okay with me.  I'm one of those weird people that likes exhaust fumes and the smell of gasoline.

Lace Dress

 One thing I've always have a weakness for is lace.  There's just something so romantic and girly about the fabric.  I paired this Lush dress with a beautiful pink necklace, and neutral wedges.

The necklace is a favorite of mine, and appears to be good quality, though, unfortunately, is has no maker's mark.

Below are more shots that I took during a photography group outing in Los Angeles.  Street photography is not something I have done a lot, but I have enjoyed it the few times I have had the opportunity.  There are so many things to photograph in L.A.!

Flapper Dress

I like the flapper-style design of this dress by Heritage 1981.  I paired the navy dress with a beige print jacket by Kai' Sea Bere, and a navy and light blue stone necklace by Forever 21.  The gold heels are by Fioni, and I have had them for several years.

Crochet Top

Crochet is one of the summer trends for 2015, so when I saw this cute crochet top at a thrift store for just $1.50, I knew I had to buy it! 

For this look, I wore my top over a nude sports bra, and paired it with a tribal print skirt, my very comfortable Naturalizer sandals, and two tribal-style necklaces to complete the boho look.

Print Maxi Dress

I wore this beautiful, print maxi dress for a lunch date at Outback Steakhouse in Glendale, California.   Because of the beautiful beaded neck ties, there was no need to add a necklace, which saved time accessorizing.  All I had to do was throw on a simple bracelet, my favorite nude heels, and a brown crocodile bag that blended well with the neutral tones in my dress, and I was ready to go!

Shoes a.n.a

I found this beautiful, pink-flower, statement necklace at Walmart.  I love the style so much that I also bought one in a brighter pink, and a third in red.  I thought the pale, salmon pink really complemented the mustard-yellow dress I am wearing.  To finish off the look, I wore neutral wedges by a.n.a, and a green, crocodile purse by Maxx New York.

This dress is really comfortable, and light-weight - perfect for these hot, pre-summer days we've been having in southern California!

What do you like to wear to stay cool and comfortable in the summer?
