{Summer Threads}...Family + Friends Dinner Night

We've put away the Spring Threads column for now––even though summer doesn't start for a few weeks––and are kicking off June with Summer Threads! Our first is for those hazy summer evenings when you gather at a friend's house and have a big dinner. Last summer, our family had some theme dinner nights, like Italian night and Mexican fiesta night with a taco bar and fresh guacamole. Family dinners are relaxed and fun, but there are usually tons of pictures for those Instagram albums. Here's my favorite uniform for summer evening shindigs!

Chambray is everywhere this summer, this button down is relaxed in a beautiful light wash, but still polished.

Cat eye shades with a twist featuring animal print and gold. 

NARS everywhere stick in their most popular color, Orgasm (oh, my!) is great for throwing in your tote and having instant, effortless beauty. 

A lovely carafe that is easily transportable for bringing homemade sangria to the party.

Tote along your camera, board games, CDs, and edible contribution in this simple straw bag.

The most swoon-worthy floral skirt that is fun, flirt, and absolutely dahling...

These will be your go-to shoes. Easy to slip on & off as you go from patio to living room in a radiant metallic.
