SUMMER FUN

Edited by Jessie Thorpe of Denimology

Summer is here and it’s very exciting to see the change in everyone’s wardrobe and more pop of color. Inspiration roams the streets at every corner! It’s hypnotizing. It’s hard to keep money in my pocket… I’m sure many of you can relate. Besides what I observe outside, Fashion blogs are a key influence to my style. Bloggers constantly make me smile from ear to ear and from season to season as I watch them transform.

I’m looking forward to flowing dresses, ripped up shorts, hot bright colors, basic tanks, bold accessories, This list might go on forever. Below you’ll find a lot of food for thought.
