I think one of the most difficult times to put together an outfit is right about...now. It's hella hot outside. Yeah, some temps may have settled back into the 80s for a few days, but friends, the 90s will be coming back soon. And I don't mean Ace of Base or Pearl Jam.
When the mercury hits the triple digits, you have a few choices:
1) Don't leave the house.
2) Leave the house naked or semi-naked and run the risk of burning your arse on your car seats and/or getting arrested.
3) Dressing accordingly and coolly.
I'm sure we can all agree that option number three is the most desirable, especially if you yearn to live outside your own walls and those of a cell. Thus, here's a set of some cool clothing that perfectly intermixes for those it's-so-hot-my-body-is-going-to-combust kinda days.
What's your go-to ensemble for insanely hot weather?

Summa Summa Tiiiiiiime Cravings
It's hot. And hawt. In celebration of the heat (that sounds more than enthusiastic), I've been perusing the interwebs for the trifecta of summer fun: beach bags, sunglasses and sun hats! While I should also add a slew of sunscreen and bathing suits to that list, I'll just tackle the former three as of today...and every item is less than $100.
Beach bags: I like those that are washable, aren't "open weave" (not a fan of sand in my band) and are easy to carry. Like dees ones...
Sunglasses: I know so many ladies who will drop some serious coin on sunnies. That's great - because those sunglasses are typically great looking pieces of fashion. The problem I have is that I often lose, sit on or "misplace" my sunglasses. Not cool when you're dropping $300-$400 on a pair of Oliver Peoples. Thus, the inspiration for the set below.
Hats: Cover your noggin, ladies! I'm very much into the types of hats that are crushable. Literally. If I can smush it into a beach bag or suitcase and it pops out unscathed, that's a winner. I'm personally going to be searching for the perfect fedora as I have a pretty fantastic (crushable) floppy hat from Urban Outfitters from last summer.
What's on your summer time to-buy list?

A Short Post
'Tis the season ladies. Nab yourself a few extra packets of overpriced razors and get those gams ready for shorts. Before I dive into my short shorts post, I gotta say this, there are few things I hate overpaying for more than shorts. I mean, comon', shorts are typically 1/4 the length of a full pair of jeans, why shall we pay at $80-$100 for a pair of designer denim shorts?
Nay, I say. Thus, the inspiration for my short picks below. Every pair featured is less than $50. Boom!
