Walking downtown

Man, this week feels like it's flown by! I can't believe I'm already through my work week, and we're off on another long weekend of travel. It's been so hot lately here in Grand Rapids. I almost can't handle it. I absolutely love summer, but it's just been so hot and so muggy. I'll definitely be excited for 70º temps this weekend, and a bit of a break from the heat wave we've been in! Tonight though, I threw on a breezy dress and told Eric we were going downtown for frozen yogurt. Survival, my friends. ;)

I'm excited to be partnering with Banana Republic again on some of their new summer arrivals that will transition perfectly into autumn. I decided to opt for this Dot-Print Tie Neck Vee Dress, which is so cute! I decided I really needed a new polka-dot dress, so I was thrilled to find this one in store... and in my size! It's easy to wear as is, with little to no styling. I just threw my favorite pair of black wedges with it. But I'm also looking forward to wearing this dress with a cozy cardigan or moto jacket this upcoming autumn too!

Well I hope you guys have a great weekend! I'll be back next week with more posts from our trip to the thumb, and after that, I need to get working on some fun collaborations I have coming up. I'm feeling like I'm back in a good groove with the blog. It's honestly about utilizing the weekends for taking photos as much as you can, at least for gals who have full-time jobs that aren't their blogs. It's been so awesome to have photos lined up, ready to work on as I have free time, and lined up to post! I'm striving for 3 posts a week, from here on out. I know winter gets a little rough, but that's my goal from now on.
