Inspiration Monday - Flip Flop

Greetings everyone!  Happy Monday!  Hope you all had good weekends.  Mine was pretty decent, a little busy but also some relaxy time which was great!  I never did get my Influenster Vlog posted, but I promise it's coming (cause I know you're all on pins and needles to listen to my babbles again...ha).  Anyway, it's Inspiration Monday and today we have Jamie Chung.


I went for the opposite of Jamie's look - instead of denim on top and white on the bottom, I did white on top and denim on the bottom!  Nothing wrong with a little flip flop!

Shirt - White House, Black Market (From cousin)
Skirt - Old Navy
Sandals - Clothes Mentor
Necklace - Butterfly Boutique
Bag - 31 Gifts
Bracelet - Charming Charlie


Boy this white shirt sure does make my nice pale white skin glow all the more though don't it?  I am your typical Scandinavian Minnesota girl - I don't tan, I burn.  So, I just opt to not tan.  Most of the time it doesn't bother me, but today I am just super translucent I guess!


I did a little bit of shopping with my mom yesterday.  Clothes Mentor was having their annual summer sale so I grabbed a few more maternity pieces for summer.  Mostly I've been worried about not having enough comfortable summer clothes to take on our trip to Northern Minnesota in a couple of weeks.  I am no longer concerned about that!  The deals were really great though, they were offering 55% off of all clearanced items, so you really can't beat that!  I do love though that I still have so many items of my regular clothing that still fit - like everything I'm wearing today.  Hooray for elastic!

For more Inspiration Monday outfits, head on over to two birds over here.

  5. Blue and white is always a gorgeous, fresh combination-I love how you flipped it! This top is really beautiful and I love that I have a fellow pale friend :) We can thank our ancestors for that one, haha. Glad you found a sale for some more maternity clothes too! I bet it's difficult to think ahead to how much you'll grow/or not while pregnant. Elastic is a girl's best friend pregnant or not though, right? haha!

  9. Oh I know! Elastic is a maternity wardrobe essential! hahahaha. This ootd is comfy and cozy looking. Yes, 104°. Yikes. It is to be that all week. Which means my photo-shoots are going to be up against my LR wall for a while anyway (next week).

  10. Elastic is my friend too, and I'm not pregnant! :) I don't purposefully go outside to tan, but my skin does get tanned. My poor husband burns every time.
