{le outfit: top ~ vintage, jeans ~ Roxy, shoes ~ steve madden girl, bangles ~ walmart, watch ~ la mer, necklace ~ wet seal, ring ~ f21, sunnies ~ dziner eyes}

I’m so having a moment with this top.
I found it a couple weeks ago at my thrift store,
and it’s so way vintage that you can’t even read the tag.
What I love is that it’s so old lady and yet so chic at the same time!
Ahhhh, I just love finding these one of a kind treasures, ya know?
As for the jeans, not so much having a moment with those now that I see the pictures.
Don’t ya just hate when you think you have it going on, only later to find out, nasomuch?
Ya, nasomuch.

My legs look thick.
And I’m not a fan.
Thank the good Lord for the cropping tool.
Gotta love it.
Let’s analyze, shall we?
I think because the jeans are so long I may have needed higher heels to elongate my legs.
Ya, that’s definitely the problem.
It’s the jeans fault.
It so has nothing to do with my stubby legs.
Yup, I blame the jeans.
Glad we worked that out.

By the way, there are more important things going on than my issues with this outfit.
You see those mountains in the background of my pictures?
Well, way back there are some trails and a lake that a lot of people hike and run on around here.
And just last Thursday, a 17 year old girl went missing in BROAD DAYLIGHT.
So, for the last 4 days there has been several helicopters day and night circling the area,
along with several hundred volunteers combing the trails in search of this girl, Chelsea King.

It is absolutely heartbreaking, and it’s all I can do not to cry every time I think about what the parents are going through….what Chelsea has gone through.
We are constantly praying that she is found safe and sound,
and that the person who has done this is caught.
It is just crazy that it’s not even safe to run in broad daylight anymore.
Anyway….keep them in your prayers.

  1. That top is adorable – I don’t think it looks old lady at all!

  2. I love that top! You look great like always! 🙂

  3. Okay, self-talk, I was thinking you look sooo tiny in those jeans and how I have never had a pair “hang” on me, in my life!

    Suz

  4. I like the jeans but that is just me.

    And that is terrible about that girl. How awful.

  5. What a horrible happening to that beautiful girl!
    Where?

    You made me laugh about your clothes story!
    Adore the blouse:)

  6. Your legs do not look thick. I was just thinking how thin you look. You are eating right? Haha. Jk.

    Love the vintage top. Its groovy.

  7. 1. I love those jeans
    2. You do NOT have thick legs, they don’t even LOOK thick.
    3. I can’t imagine losing my daughter like that. I’ll be praying.

  8. This world is coming to an end. I’m telling ya. Freaking wacko weirdo psycho’s running around taking innocent lives! I hope they find her 🙂 Prayers for everyone out there missing!:)

  9. I personally love the jeans. I was sitting at my computer, wishing I could magically make them appear on my body. That would be difficult enough, but the fact that I currently need maternity pants? Yeah…not gonna happen.

  10. that top is nothing short of AUHMAZING!!!! love it!! AND i love the wide leg jeans with it…so i definitely think you’ve got it going on!

    and my heart goes out to that gal and her family…prayers that she is found safe and sound and soon!!!

  11. Ok, not thick AT ALL! Adorable is more like it! I am loving that top!!

  12. My sweet Summer- LOVE your look, totally MISS that beautiful SD weather, and just said a prayer for Chelsea. Wow. So scary. Praying for her and her family!!!

    So excited to get all caught up and can’t wait to talk about this possible opportunity for you to be foster parents!!! SO amazing! You guys would be phenomenal and I will definitely add that to my prayers!

    Really loved that Shelby has a feature on here – quite impressed and inspired with her first post…

    Ok, girl, miss you and love you and can’t wait to talk SOON!!!

  13. The top is gorg!! I totally blame my pants for the stumpy leg look. Couldn’t be the fact that I’m 5’2″. No way. 🙂

    That is sad and super scary about that girl. She will be in my prayers.

    I have totally missed your entire 21 day challenge! I’m back in full swing now, and I’m going to do it! I’ve missed you, girl!

  14. Dearest Summer, your heart is so big it is wonderful that you draw everyones attention to the finer issues in life that we skim on a daily basis.

    I think you look adorable in whatever you wear. Yes I am pretty jelous of that fact. I am still trying to shift my post baby weight – 1 year on! xx

  15. First off- I don’t see any stumpy legs. If you’re legs are stumpy then I hate to think what mine are!

    I love this outfit- it looks like something I would totally wear. The shoes are super cute too!

    That poor girl, I can’t even imagine. I don’t want to imagine. Those poor parents. Ugh. Horrible.

  16. That is a gorgeous top Summer!

    Very sad about Chelsea, I will definitely keep she and the family in my prayers…keep us posted!

  17. You could jump in a mumu and still look cute!

  18. I just had to say you’re insane (in that “oh my goodness she’s so insane, I love her” kinda way)! Before I read your post I was practically drooling over your pants. Thick? Are you kidding me? They look amazing & I’d say I HAVE to have them except I surely would look too thick. (I too have the insane gene!) Wink wink! Thanks for another make me smile post!

  19. interesting top. I have one like it, but with a ruffle front.

    i heard about that girl. I hope shes okay too and is found safe and sound.

    oh I gave you an award on my blog 🙂

  20. omg I can’t believe you live so close to that tragedy!! I’m scared for you. However, I LOVE that last shot! You’re channeling Rachel Zoe ..lol, in a good way 😉

  21. oh my gosh! i hope she’s ok. i wonder if she got hurt or if she actually got abducted or something. either way, that’s terrifying.

    and, by the way, you always have the cutest jeans!! jealous.

  22. That’s horrible. I googled her name to read more about the story hoping that she’d been found since you posted, but nothing…I don’t understand why stuff like this has to happen. I hope she comes home safe!
