Wow, Chicago has gotten so many rainy days, lately! The flowers, grass, and trees are in full summer bloom! Rainy Mondays always have me feeling cozy and calm. I wore a floral skirt and breezy top to celebrate the rainy warmth and full bloomed flowers that are gracing us with their presence. “Rain is grace; rain is the sky descending to the earth; without rain, there would be no life.” -John Updike

Fashion Huntress tips:
1) It’s about that time when offices start blasting their summer air conditioning, which always means light layers for me. I like to pair cardigans and/or light blouses with skirts and sandals for a professional air conditioning proof professional look.
2) This month’s manicure link-up (#monthlymani) theme is “summer picnic.” Despite the rainy and overcast days, I decided to go full blown neon with my nails this week. I even added sunglasses, complete with glitter. Below is a picture of my summer nails; check-out the other #monthlymani girls for their summer picnic themed nails!

We got a ton of rain here as well! It finally stopped for the day I hope, which means I dont have to water my vegetable garden, but that also means no sunshine for a while! gah. Love the skirt, the print is fantastic!!

Love the itty bitty polka dots on the top! Totally understand your comment about offices blasting their air-con – layer up, then when you step out, people look at you like you’ve come from the Arctic!
