I had so many pairs of Levi’s both in high school (pegged and rolled!!), and then in college (cut offs, still have them/wearing them 20 years later…)  They are classic.  Funny that when the low rise trend first came out, I thought I’d NEVER wear Levi’s again unless it was to work to do house projects (sadly most of my old cut offs have paint on them now :() On me…

 While I like to experiment, and have fun trying new things to wear…chances are, most days I’m wearing a swing tank and cut offs.  Now that I’ve gone scissor crazy on a few pairs for Maya, she will too!  Of course on the days I can talk her out of wearing a “Princess Dress” aka…all dresses 🙂

It’s also been pretty hot here.  I am going to try and not complain, but there’s a reason I have lived in the Pacific Northwest for most of my life.  I like the cooler temperatures.  I actually like the rain!  And…can we talk about the chore of slathering up in sunscreen??  I really can’t wait for someone to invent a pill or drink that provides all over sunscreen!!  All that said, I LOOOOVE warm nights, and taking walks after dinner!!  The Huz has been home the last few nights, so we were lucky enough to have him come with us and snap our pics vs the usual tripod and self timer!

Me watching Maya roll down our neighbors hill… 🙂

Can I just say how much I love swing tops?  They hide things you don’t want to show (I wore this through out my pregnancy and after!), yet they drape well and are flattering on almost every body type!And…there she goes again! 🙂 Love that I caught her mid air!!“RRRROAR!!!”  Trying to scare Daddy 🙂Hahaha.  Love this one!The whole purpose of this walk was to go retrieve Goffrey2.  He had been dropped on our morning walk.  I kept trying to pick him up, but Maya insisted that he stay there and sleep.  Then, was asking where he was all day…On me…

 There’s something about the simple combination of a white tee with ripped jeans.  It’s a classic combination that I don’t see ever going out of style.

I love adding a little twist to the classic, and I am a total sucker for a cowl neck.  I love the draping…I’ve worn these jeans a number of times on the blog.  I love the easy comfort of jeans that are a few sizes too big.  These are the classic boot cut, but rolled and a few sizes too big, they totally feel like a boyfriend style. 3 out of the five of these earrings are Gorjana.  LOVE the simplicity of her jewelry!  You can barely see, but the circle disc has a “m” on it 🙂  If you sign up to get emails from them, you’ll get sale notifications.  At the end of seasons, items can go up to 80% off!! Hahaha.  Maya loooooves a good kiss 😉 Goffrey and Dita came with us to my parents house for dinner 🙂 On me…

Cutoffs are always so perfect in the summer.  A way to get them on the cheap is at the thrift store (duh :)).  Look for your favorite jeans in a size or two larger than you normally wear.  That way they are looser and more comfy.  If you find some that have a hack job hem or that have been worn at the bottom from dragging, those are usually marked down pretty cheap.  Perfect to turn into cut offs!  You can even do some DIY distressing like I did here.  Or, I’m sure everyone has a pair of jeans in their closet that they never wear anymore.  Perfect way to give them a new lease on life!

Let’s pretend my legs aren’t ghostly pale… :{
