It’s been a focus of mine lately to shop less. Summer is my least favorite month when it comes to clothing so it seemed like the perfect time to cut back. It has been over one hundred degrees every single day for the past couple of weeks, so dressing for the day can be tough. If I’m not in athleisure, you can find me in some version of a white tee with a skirt. This has been my uniform as it is the only thing that keeps me cool enough. While I am trying to not shop, there are a couple little things I have picked up to help freshen up my basic white tee look.
My favorite accessory this summer has been a bandana. I have always been a fan of silk scarves and have worn them often (last seen here). But I’ve fallen in love with this bandana since it stays in place so much better than a silk scarf. It’s the best option for when you want to wear a scarf in your hair.
I have been wearing scarves in my hair so much more lately. With the extreme heat we’re having I want my hair off of my neck as much as possible. This is the time of year that I always consider chopping it all off! But the bandana is a good solution that also dresses up my white tee and denim combination.
My hiatus from shopping is giving me reason to pull out some of my older pieces and restyle them. I think adding a small, fresh accessory makes everything feel new again. It’s a quick and inexpensive way to add a little more personality to your outfit. xo Bryn
I love this post! I live in TX too and it’s so darn hot!! The other day I wore my hair up with a pretty headband and it made my outfit so much better. Love simple ideas like this where you can update what you already have with not a lot of money. Keep em coming!!
It is SO hot!! I’ve been wanting to get a headband too… I agree it’s a easy way to make an outfit better! Thanks so much for the comment, Jessica! I appreciate it! Xo Bryn
I just love the look of a bandana around the neck, it’s so cute! But, I feel like I cannot pull it off! You look awesome with it on around your neck. The pony tail look seems more doable, haha.
And I so appreciate you saying that you are trying to incorporate your older pieces in outfits instead of trying to having something new. I’m working on that myself.
Thank you Kristen! I am sure you can pull it off! I feel a little flight attendant at first but I love it! Haha and it’s something I’m trying to be better at! Thanks for the comment! Xo Bryn
I’ve been loving my silk scarves, but can never get them to stay in my hair so I DEF need to try this out! Also obsessed with the pattern of your scarf!
