Platforms, Nine West
Black necklace pile, various sources
If my mom were here, she’d say that it’s, “hot as blue blazes.” I’m not sure if other temperatures merit other colors of blazes, but it is, in fact, HORRIFYINGLY hot and humid here today. As in heat index of 105 degrees and staggering humidity. So I dressed lightly and simply. And in a machine-washable top to accommodate the excessive sweating.
GROSS!

GREAT shoes!
I completely and totally LOVE the entire outfit. It looks fantastic on you.
Oh man I love those pumps.
There's something about white, khaki, and black together that just makes me happy. It looks so fresh and classic.
You look very cool and summery. LOVE the pockets on the skirt!
i love the neutral colors – obvz i'm one for more color, but black and nude is a favorite combination of mine!
I hate dressing for those hot, humid days–I know I am going to sweat all over everything so I don't want to wear anything too nice…
Great necklaces!
ABSOLUTELY Great shoes! Yummo Sweet Sal! Nine West shoes worked great for me for so many years and then I got into the clogs. But I'm making a return to Nine West – cute and affordable.
Word.
Totally understand that weather. We're thankfully getting reprieve from that. Loving the layered necklaces.
Love the layering of your necklaces. For that. I will overlook the too much information of the post. ๐
Classic outfit. I'm always a huge fan of the white tee. And the shoes… love! Nine West is really kicking some shoe butt lately.
Sally,
I love this outfit on you. So flattering! You look like you feel great it in, too.

Those shoes really are fantastic! I love the contrast of the black accessories against the lighter skirt and tee.
I live in Orlando where the heat index has been close to 110 all summer.
It's ick. But I have to admit, I'd much rather be hot than cold!
I love the shoes with this! You look cool as a cucumber in this simple but chic outfit!
I came in to post "great shoes" but seems I've been beaten to the punch.
Awesome shoes! You poor thing – I hope it cools off soon. You look great, though, sweaty and all!
The necklace is a perfect accompaniment for the simplicity of of outfit! Everything comes together as a smooth, easy-on-the-eyes combination that is simply lovely :)))
Love,

Yeah, it's pretty brutal hot here, as well. Definitely a challenge to dress and be comfortable and still manage to look nice.
And nice and comfortable you do look!
Very simple chic! Those really are great shoes. And is that another little tattoo I see? ๐
I love this outfit. The simple white and khaki with the in-your-face necklace and fantastic black shoes is just really great. I also love the silhouette and pleating of that skirt.

I REALLY love this outfit. I just started reading your blog on a daily basis, and I think this could be my favorite outfit of yours yet! Khaki seems so stodgy and uncool to me, but here you make it seem so fresh and chic and edgy! You are amazing!
It's winter here . . and you're complaining abut heat and humidity, which I don't mind at all and could really use right now! (Not sure what 'heat index' means.)
But you look very lovely ๐
I love how the necklaces stand out against the simple white tee ๐
Man, I wish it would heat up some around here, it's been all foggy and gray and cold, boo.
I love how simple and to the point is the outfit today. For me this is real style.I've browsed throught your blog a lot the last few days and I can see how much your style has evolved.You do lots of super stuff lately…
LOVE the mix of necklaces.
omg, youre very cute.
the style is simple yet fab.
love it! =)
I've been dying for a skirt similar to that one….hmmmm I need one now!! Also, I live in the midwest too… well I never pay attn to the weather stats…nice to know why I've been sweating buckets while running at night – ha!!
You look so elegant! I love the accessories and shoes! I refuse to turn on the a/c so I spent the whole day reading a book in my pool!
I love that you took a couple of basic garments and snazzed them up with those amazing shoes and big ol' pile of necklaces. Accessorizing is key in weather like yours!
THIS is the exact light neutrals outfit I was raving about in your black-out roundup post. It's perfect.
