As I was packing up the fashion closet for my biannual wardrobe switch (out with the winter and in with the spring!), I intentionally left a few lightweight sweaters on the racks, in hopes I would work them into more summery outfits. My memory (although typically rather shoddy) didn’t fail me this time, as I reached for this super light striped number and matched it up with a pair of faded boyfriend shorts and cut-out booties for a Memorial Day barbeque.
Calling all content strategists, SEO gurus, and fellow general geeks: is anyone going to Confab next week in Minneapolis? I am! Would love to meet up with you! Let me know; my Twitter is a good place to start.
That brings me to a programming note. Since I’m out for Confab, posting next week will be light. However, check in on Monday for another giveaway announcement!
You look so cute! And still rocking the tough London girl look! 🙂
Looking lovely!

I love how easy and casual you look! Gorgeous and perf for a BBQ.
Hope you’re having a good Thursday, girl! 🙂
I wish I could pull off booties and shorts- you look so cool! Also a little Coachella, which I love!
Loving those shorts! Gap boyfriends are da besssst. 🙂
Gorg!

I find myself wearing light sweaters with shorts a lot, too. For some reason, I like the mix of long on top, short on bottom!
Same, same! It’s such an easy look, and will work until the weather gets too terribly hot + humid. 🙂
So adorable! I love lightweight sweaters for summer – they are the perfect balance with cute shorts, just like you’re wearing!

I tried this but it is wayyy to hot in Florida for even a light sweater during the summertime but I do love this look. You look adorable, love the braid in your hair.

Oh yes, the Florida humidity won’t allow for sweaters, haha! 🙂
So perfect for Memorial Day! Love the shoes and your hair is so cute!
Have I told you I want your bag? Well, I do. But with my own initials. Otherwise, things would be a bit confusing. 🙂

The bag and boots complement each other so well! I think this is the first summer (in a long time) that I’ve been able to wear sweaters and shorts together. Usually it’s way too hot by this time!
We’re enjoying a nice stretch of weather, too (temp-wise; it’s raining today!), so I’m able to pull this off for now. Come July and August, this won’t be the case! 🙂
So jelly of your RM Mini MAC! And those killer booties.
Beautiful!
Nailed it with the bag and booties. Those shorts look so cute on you, too!
Big weekend plans? Hope you have a good one!
Hi Ashley. Your booties are awesome as is your little purse. This is a great outfit altogether. I love the vintage type of denim on those shorts. I usually change out my closets on April & October. I always leave some light sweaters. Like the last week and a half here has been usually chilly & rainy.
Looking forward to your giveaway on Monday.
P.S. Follow me via Bloglovin. Thanks.

You look so relaxed and pretty, Ash!

Striped sweaters are my favorite! I love the way you’ve made them really cool and cas here with the booties and faded shorts. Cuuuute!
You look cute! I need some summer sweaters so that I don’t freeze at work with the AC.
This is a problem for me, too- my office is ALWAYS chilly, even in the dead of summer! Gotta keep the cardigans handy. 🙂
