I’m not sure how it’s possible that tomorrow is August 1st. Where did July go?? And although we just have a little over a month of summer remaining, there is one good thing about the start of August: summer is on sale. Whether it is something you have had your eye on for a few months or if you are looking to stock up on summer basics at lower prices, it’s a great time to find summer on sale. Here are a few of my favorite summer pieces that are currently on sale:
Happy Monday, friends! Sharing a little bit of a different kind of post today. Since the majority of my week is spent in work clothes, I thought I would share three of my favorite recent workday outfits.

There is nothing like summer side dishes. The fresh vegetables and light flavors of summer sides are the perfect addition to any meal. Especially a meal on the grill. Corn on the cob is probably one of my favorite side dishes of summer. But of all the corn on the cob I have had in my life, this Mexican Style Street Corn takes first place in my heart.

Like much of the east coast, it was a hot one here in D.C. this past weekend. With the “feel like” temperature at 107 degrees by Saturday afternoon, it was like walking into a brick wall every time walking outside. Even though we shot these pictures super early, it was brutal! But, it is summer in D.C. and I guess you have to just embrace it! And I can’t think of a better way to embrace these summer temperatures than with the perfect summer dress under $30.

With all the talk of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, I am definitely looking forward to fall. However, the temperatures are still warm (and there are more summer clothes to share!) and will be for awhile.
