    Check Republic: Gingham Dress

      Check Republic: Gingham Dress by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring Lilly Pulitzer Gingham is the quintessential summer pattern. Sure, it reminds me of a picnic tablecloth, but it’s just so cute! For the gingham challenge on Polyvore, I chose this navy dress with a criss cross back because I think the open back is so pretty for summer. For a little bit of fun summer bling, I chose this colorful Lily Pulitzer bracelet with beads and shells. I finished off the look with wedge espadrilles – another summer staple.

    Pool Party Style

    Weekend Pool Party by lifeaccordingtojamie featuring American Eagle Outfitters I’ve been at a workshop this week for work and while it’s been really useful and I’m learning a lot, it’s also super tiring. Definitely not my first choice of things to do for 8 hours a day all week during the summer. So where do I wish I was instead right now? Keep in mind that when this post goes live, I’ll probably be stuck in traffic on my way home! In my dream world, I’d have a beautiful built in pool in my backyard and I could go for a dip to cool off or just lounge poolside. In…
