July was kind of a blur and, to be honest, I’m still a little bit in denial about the fact that it’s already August. It was a busy month (as usual), not least because my little guy turned 4 (where did that time go?) and I proceeded to freak out a little bit more about my 35th birthday, which followed shortly. I tried to rationalize my (irrational?) reaction for what seemed like an eternity but, in the end, I just accepted that this birthday was going to hit me in the feels no matter what, and just went with it. I am now officially closer to my 40s than my 20s, y’all. Watch out for falling skies.

Any-navelgazing-way.

For some reason, I only have 18 outfits to show you for July, but they’re not a bad bunch. See?

Outfit-wise, it was a good month, yeah? I liked most of these a lot, though my favourites were probably #1, #7, #8, #16 and #17. Least favourites were #3 (blah) and #10 (too buttoned up for summer). I got a bunch of new pieces this month that I adore, including the white linen blazer and print pants from J. Crew Factory (outfit #17) and the Tibi dress (outfit #14). Other recent pieces that made their appearance this month are the floral J. Crew skirt and blouse, and the Liberty print blazer. As you can see, the blush Topshop blazer is still going strong as well.

I know we’re getting to that time of year when a lot of bloggers are squealing over all things OMGFall but I, for one, am super pumped for another month of summer (and, hopefully, a really warm September too). First and foremost because #WinterIsComing (and don’t you forget it), but also because I want another few opportunities to wear some of my fave summer pieces. Who’s with me?

12 Comments on What I Wore: Work Wardrobe Capsule – July 2015

  1. stop being so pretty and skinny and making the rest of us look bad!!!! 😉

    kidding. kind of. what I’m really trying to say is that you look great

    • Pshaw! You are SO gorgeous, lady – seriously. Thank you for the sweet words, but don’t you for a second forget that you’re da bomb 😉

  2. Where I live, the kids went back to school today! I’m clinging to summer too, but it’s hard not to feel the fall when the school buses are rolling through the streets

    • OMG, that’s kinda nuts! Did they break early? As a kid, I would have hated missing out on almost an entire month of summer …

  3. It was apparently a print-tastic month! Does this signal a return to more heavily mix/match outfits, or do you think you’re just wear a lot of prints because they feel summery?

    • Probably a bit of both. Summer always feels more casual around the office, especially with the temperatures we’ve been getting. I still think I’m nowhere near as print-tastic as I used to be, but perhaps my perception is skewed.

  4. You look so polished in every single look and love your hair in look #11! I’m definitely clinging on to summer for as long as I can as well.

  6. Love the summery overview! I am one of those folks getting excited about fall – so I think I need to buy some summer clothes I enjoy wearing more so I can stay excited for summer. I think you look summery yet professional – which is a hard line to walk. And a lot of these pieces could be worn in different seasons, as there’s still a lot of black and dark colours as well.

    • Oh, for sure! I have very few summer-only clothes, because it’s not worth it – our season is usually so short. We’ve been very lucky this year 🙂
