Casual summer date night

Jeans // Jack Rogers jellies  (currently 40% off!) // hat from New Orleans hat shop, similar here // earrings (currently 30% off!) // clutch // Banana Republic top- sold out at the moment, but similar BR top here! //  Recently my family traveled to Columbia, Mississippi for a long weekend to visit extended family. Columbia is a charming small town in the southern part of the state, about 1.5 hours from New Orleans, LA. My husband and I took advantage of the grandparents' offer to babysit, and went on a date night in nearby Hattiesburg! Before dinner, we stopped at this gorgeous courthouse on Main St in Columbia for a photo op :) I kept the outfit comfy and laid-back with my favorite jeans from Citizens of Humanity. If you haven't tried these- they are worth the higher price tag! They will last FOREVER! Seriously the softest, most comfortable skinnies I own. (And a higher rise, too! Bonus!) Off the shoulder tops are the major trend this summer season, and I chose this Banana Republic top because its linen and has a more casual feel. I honestly have an off the shoulder addiction- I'm sure you will see more in future posts! Its a great way to be a little 'sexy' without showing much skin. I'm a mom and way past the age of showing cleavage (LOL), so this is a nice modest alternative. This particular top just recently sold out :( but I linked a similar one above.  Speaking of trends, I went with two more for my accessories. You can NEVER go wrong with a good pair of tassel earrings (I have several) and a classic straw fedora! I linked one of my favorite fedoras from Nordstrom because mine was purchased last year at a hat shop. (Great for when your hair just isn't on point today, also! Haha!) I have never owned a pair of Jack Rogers sandals, but have always heard so many rave reviews on their style and comfort. I finally sprung for these jellies because it was a total throwback to my 90's childhood (oh yea, and they were 40% off!) I am now on the #lovemyjacks train, because these beauties are SO comfortable! Can't wait to wear them at the beach this summer! Add a simple clutch, and you're ready to go! Enjoy your sweet night out with your main squeeze! Sit on a patio and have a glass of chilled wine for me!
