SUMMER ESSENTIALS, KHAKI GREEN, LEOPARD, ESPADRILLES + A GIVEAWAY!

I  have always loved khaki!  KHAKI is a neutral shade that should be thought of the same way as black and white.  It is a color that suits every skin tone and can be worn with anything.  It is easy to style for summer because it looks great with sun kissed skin and it is suited for any occasion!  This dress can be styled as shown, or worn open as an effortlessly cool top layer with a camisole under.  Next time I wear it, I'm going to experiment with other belts, but I definitely like to accessorize it with brown tones such as the leopard bag and my favorite espadrilles!  Leopard adds a flash of wild to this neutral shade and lends a sense of adventure!

Speaking of sun kissed skin, we are leaving for Bald Head Island tomorrow and I'll be blogging from there!  I can't wait to spend some relaxing time with my family on this beautiful island!  We've been going there for as long as I can remember and it feels like home.  Check back on the blog for some great seafood recipes and my picks for all things beachy and follow me on Instagram @crazyblondelifeblog!
