Well, come on….it’s 90 degrees in Northern Michigan with NO AC…..and so…..I shop. I’m not saying I’m always BUYING stuff, but I love to look and imagine all the places I’d go if I DID buy all this stuff ;0.
I will say that SOME items are deemed ESSENTIAL and some NON-ESSENTIAL. You can decide for yourself 🙂
These babies below I think are for SURE essential. I’m tired of showing up at lunch carrying my phone, my glasses, my sunglasses and my damn mask. I don’t like to carry a big bag, so these would REALLLLY do the trick. If you’ve missed my birthday, DM me and I’ll send you my address so you can get it for me – I prefer the pink for summer ;0
Now, this thing you might not THINK is essential, but let me tell you, it makes a WORLD of difference for all you camera-happy people. It lights up a photo perfectly with the little light on the back AND if you’re so inclined to take a selfie, I will say it makes you look like a million bucks. It’s pricey for a phone case, but it WORKS!
So, who was it that said you should never wear a green bathing suit? I SWEAR I heard that sometime in my life. Well, it’s hogwash I tell you – hogwash. I am LOVING this green ensemble. Seems essential to me?! (Insert shrugging shoulders emoji here)

Moving on…..I do believe these are BOTH essential 🙂
Now gals…..it’s hard to tell from this photo, but the item on the left is a Pucci clutch. I was LUCKY enough to get one from my sister-in-law a few years ago and I STILL carry it all the time! This one is an all season sensation :). And how about those Pucci-esque wedges? Dang cute!
Are you still with me?? Ok, then look at this cute green dress. I have ONE one-shoulder dress by Isabel Marant and I didn’t think I was a fan until I tried it on. I don’t think this look is going anywhere – it’s pretty universally flattering. And the SHOES by Tamara Mellon? I LOVE that they have a little lucite on them so they don’t totally cut off your leg :). The earring are on sale and they are SO dang unique. By the way, you all know I’m a high/low lady. I think this dress is one of those that you may wear a couple of times and to make it look REALLY fancy, you work around it with your expensive pieces. – shoes, bag, earrings. I mean come on. Don’t you love to get compliments on something that isn’t a gazillion dollars? I know i do 🙂
Last but not least….my fav….shades of BLUE. These are ALL essential – HA! – and on sale, so there you go 🙂
Well, there you have it! Hot summer fun shopping 🙂
Trust the Mother….you’ll be glad you did.
