Summer Outfit Inspiration: Statement Sleeves

Hi Everyone! I wanted to give you some outfit inspiration for the summer. It is really warm in Florida, but I wanted to keep wearing long sleeves as much as I can! That’s why I paired this bright yellow top with the nice daisy skirt I showed you in a previous blog.

I am really into spring bell sleeves right now. I have been wearing this top a lot lately. See how I first wore it here. I was excited to see that it pairs perfectly with my daisy skirt from Rachel Parcell, and it is under $50!

It’s important to me to find different ways to wear outfit pieces to get the most out of my closet. I know a lot of fashion experts recommend thinking of a minimum of three outfits you’d be able to pair a specific piece with before you buy it. Once I started doing that, I noticed that I was able to put together some looks that I didn’t really think of because I had always paired the same pieces together rather than mixing it up. This outfit is today’s result!

This daisy lace skirt looks great with it’s matching top, but I think that the yellow top fits in with the “theme” of the skirt’s print without playing into it so much like the daisy top does. The yellow top is a boxier cut, which makes it drape nicely in comparison with the tight fit of the skirt.
