Summer Looks from The Southern Nest
Hi friends! Hard to believe that Memorial Day is this weekend which means summer is upon us. Where has the time gone?!? (I feel like that I say that more and more as I get older!) With summer quickly approaching, many of you will be taking vacations in the next few months. I am so excited to share some summer looks from The Southern Nest that would be great to wear now and on vacation.
For any of you who live in or around Charlotte, trust me when I tell you to check out The Southern Nest. They are located just 8 minutes from Ballantyne in Indian Land, SC right off Lancaster Highway in Carolina Commons. I've been shopping there for several years, as they have a wonderful selection of apparel, home interiors and gifts. I chose three looks to share with you all, but had a hard time narrowing it down, as they have so many cute clothing options.
Top, jewelry & bag all from The Southern Nest
The first look I'm featuring includes this adorable red, white and blue embroidered top. This top is perfect for Memorial Day, 4th of July and really any day. Between the flattering cut, pretty colors, embroidery and fluttered sleeves, I was immediately drawn to it. I paired the top with a stack of my favorite beaded bracelets. The Southern Nest has a great selection of these bracelets in all colors that look great by themselves or stacked together. I chose some gold and white earrings that are so versatile and will go with just about anything. Lastly, I picked this light blue bag with a gold ring handle to wear with all of my outfits as the blue shade is neutral enough to pair with any other color.
Dress, jewelry and bag all from The Southern Nest
I love wearing a comfy dress in the summer, as they are easy to throw on and still look put together. When I saw this striped dress, I decided it was the perfect summer staple. It has a loose yet flattering cut and the embroidery and stripes make it pretty and unique. And y'all, this dress costs less than $50! Because of the bright flowers on the dress, you can pair it with just about any colored accessory. I chose the beaded bracelets to bring in some of the colors of the dress and wore some pretty gold hoop earrings by Brighton. The Southern Nest has a wonderful selection of Brighton jewelry.

The final look features the cutest embroidered tiered sleeveless top. (Can you tell that I am on an embroidery kick lately?!?) The neck line of this top is very flattering and I love all the details. The embroidery, scalloped edges and pretty colors all make for a perfect top and I am sure I will be wearing it a bunch this summer. I wore it with the same bracelet stack and light blue bag. I chose some pretty gold and silver earrings that would go with just about anything.
