I have clothes in my closet that I love and for some reason, I never wear them!  I’m really trying to pull some of them out and come up with different combinations and this is one of the outfits that I came up with!  I’m pretty pleased with it and I think it’s perfect for late summer!  Palazzo pants were first worn by women in the 1920’s…think Coco Chanel, and later by Katherine Hepburn in the 1930’s, but really became popular in the 1960’s and 1970’s.  I think palazzo pants (on sale!) are very flattering for most body types and can be a fun option to a skirt.  I paired mine with a cute off-the-shoulder black top (similar), my Jimmy Choo espadrilles, a fabulous Rachel Zoe necklace and of course, a glass of wine!  Do you have clothes that you never wear?  I hope you’ll be inspired to pull them out and wear them and I’d love to see the pictures of what you’re wearing!

This coming weekend, out gazebo will be transformed into a beautiful home for Sarah’s wedding cake, but in the meantime, it works well for some fashion pics!  I hope you’ll check back as I share my ideas for the wedding!  It’s going to be a very busy, but very fun week.  Follow me on Instagram @crazyblondelifeblog!
