I have always been a sucker for any piece of clothing with a horse on it so when Karina of Tea Leaf Clothing offered to send me this airbrushed horses tee by Rebel Yell in this beautiful yellow color I found it hard to resist.  I have another top by Rebel Yell that hasn't been photographed yet, but it is a beautiful embroidered peasant looking top with cool buttons.  I find Rebel Yell tops and tees to be very soft and this horse one is no exception.  What I really love about this burnout tee is the fact that the armholes are extremely oversized, which makes it suprisingly easy to show off a colorful bralette or one of those cutout bras.  You cannot see it here, but I am wearing an Only Hearts bra with side cut-outs so if someone did happen to get a glimpse through the armholes of my shirt they would find that I am wearing a pretty nifty bralette.

I paired the Rebel Yell tee with my Siwy studded denim shorts.  I think studs may go in and out in terms of trendiness, but they never completely die.  When I need to add that certain edge to a casual outfit I reach for these Siwy jean shorts because they have the gold studs along the pocket area.  Siwy jean shorts are made from the softest denim and that is why I have a huge collection of them and my boyfriend keeps reminding me of just how many pairs I have and why don't I wear them even more.  I tell him there are only so many days I can wear denim shorts in a row since I am a fashion blogger and all.  They never understand.  I could live in these for a week, but you would never know it because I try to keep things interesting on Fashion Snag.

For jewelry I wore my trusty Giles & Brother cuff.  I think I throw this on with just about everything because it goes with just about everything.  I am also wearing another pair of earrings designed by Kori of Little Darling Designs in Hawaii.  She sells a lot of jewelry in her Etsy shop so you should definitely check it out.  These earrings are delicate, lightweight, and I love the yellow and orange color combination.  The sea glass seems to catch the light of sunset and make time stand still for a moment. 

Dorothy from LAMO footwear was kind enough to let me pick out a pair of shoes from the summer collection.  Out of all the comfortable sheepskin shoes, I decided to pick out these leather tie-dye sandals with a suede footbed.  I like how the strap going across my toes is brown and both the straps of the shoe and back are this beautiful blue tie-dye color.  My favorite color to mix with tie-dye is yellow so as soon as I received these shoes I was happy to pair them with my new yellow Rebel Yell tee.  The sandals are very comfortable so if you like sheepskin boots you will probably like these as well.  They are a great alternative to flip flops and have a slight platform.  It was my first experience with LAMO footwear.  Who knew they made sheepskin sandals for summer?

This outfit was so much fun to wear.  I put it together in my head and sometimes outfits like that don't translate as well when you actually put the components on your body.  In this case, I exceeded my own expectations.  I love how the Wildfox Couture tee dressed down the beautiful lace shorts.  I found the braided suede headband hanging around on the clothing rack on my way out the door.  The sunglasses managed to really give the outfit a hippie vibe. 

I was lusting after these Anna Sui lace shorts for the longest time on Net-a-Porter and it wasn't until they showed up on the Shopbop website that I finally took the plunge.  They are made in the USA and have this cute lace-up front detailing.  I think these lace shorts are different from others because of the antique white coloring and the circle cutouts.  Out of all my lace shorts, this pair is my favorite.  Because the lace shorts are so dressy I wanted to make them more casual for a daytime look.  I did so by pairing them with this lovely Wildfox Couture native harley tee that Karina from Tea Leaf Clothing sent me.  This top has the perfect shape so you can wear it off the shoulder for summer.  It is extremely soft and I adore the native inspired print inside the letter O.  That print is what led me to pick out this headband on the way out of the door.  Like the Anna Sui shorts, the Wildfox tee is also made in the USA.  Slightly oversized tops like these come in handy for dressing down fancy shorts during the day.

My Marni wedges have some brown and black in them, which I think worked for this particular outfit due to the headband and the coloring of the Wildfox top.  These sandals are so comfortable, but I must admit my feet were a little sweaty due to the heat.  The Free People suede braided feather headband has been hanging around for quite some time until it finally got to make an appearance on Fashion Snag.  I think the tee and headband were pretty much made for each other.  Any accessory with feathers usually catches my eye.  My favorite outfits are always the bohemian inspired casual ones like these.
