Embroidered Oaxacan Vibes

Embroidered loose cotton dresses are the best way to spend these last few weeks of summer.. 
I think Embroidered Mexican Oaxacan Dresses
 are some of the most comfortable dresses to wear!
They simply slip over the head and are usually made of cotton.
Oaxacan dresses are very timeless pieces to wear 
Whats so great about these dresses is that each one is a work of art! 
They've all been hand embroidered in Mexico, and the colors are so rich!! 
They really have no specific period in history as to when they were popular. 
I think these dresses would be ideal to wear to a Festival, or Party.
Their awesome for the clothing collector as well.
 I love to add a few pieces of
 turquoise and silver to give it that Southwestern Boho feel.
I can't imagine how many hours of work that goes into creating each dress.
 As a matter of fact, Embroidered Oaxacan dresses have inspired me to learn how to embroider!
I'd love to keep seeing more of these handcrafted bohemian dresses in the industry!
Its great to know that some of that hand craftsmanship still exists in fashion today.

Beach Bohemia

 I've been obsessed with gorgeous white dresses to wear on my beach days! 
White is a beautiful beach color that reminds us of
 the breaking tide, seashells, and the romance of a sunset walk along the ocean. 
Its such a feminine color to wear on an overcast beach day. 
I love this white cotton gauze boho chic mini dress from shabbybabe!! 
Its one of the comfiest dresses I've ever worn!. 
It simply slips over the head and ties in back. 
The back tie is optional. This dress looks great just hanging loosely on the body. 
The bodice of the dress is a cotton eyelet lace. 
For white dresses its always a good idea to add accessories with a splash of color!
 That's why I added my coral beaded necklace. It worked out perfectly! 
Coral and orange looks so bold and gorgeous with white…. 
With this dress I also added a brown straw beach bag from shabbybabe.
The combination of the bold bright accessories worked out so well with this dress.
Cotton,rayon,and linen are the best fabrics when hang in on the sand.
The sand washes right out at the end of the day. Sadly summer is winding down.
 Lets try to make the most of whats left this August.

Summer Nights

One of the best parts about summer is seeing everything bloom! 
The flowers, the trees,  and the gorgeous weather...
I found this old Colonial house from the 1700s with an amazing Lily Garden!! 
I couldn't help but get inspired to put a Victorian inspired Romantic look Together. 
This slip dress from Shabbybabe is adorable!!! 
It can either be a worn as a tunic top or a mini dress. I love the champagne lace color! 
I combined it with a long Cross necklace from Forever 21, and my favorite boots from Jeffrey Campbell
All together its a nice evening summer look!
