Create28: Styling Summer Tanks

If you have been following along with Create28, you probably know by now that I am totally smitten with tanks in the summer. This year, I've completely fallen for light and flowing tanks. If they are racer-back, then even better. So when I was contacted by Showinbuy to feature an item from their website, I first looked through they summer tops. I was looking for sleeveless and something a little feminine. I really wanted something that encompassed that light and airy look. Well, guess what? I found it!
 

This top came in a few other colors but I really thought white would be a great piece to add to my wardrobe. I know it can be difficult when it comes to photography but I hope you can see the layers.

I featured this top earlier in Create28 with a more dressier look. {Here} It seemed appropriate to feature a look with shorts that is casual yet chic. Casual, put-together and chic is what I try to accomplish for my everyday looks. Showinbuy.com is online site for women's clothing. They offer a variety of items from special occasion dresses to everyday pieces. This is a website where you can pick up a few of those trendy pieces at little cost. But at the same time, you can find a great little item like this one. A piece like this that has versatility within the summer months but has the potential to cross a season or two if remixed correctly. The question remains - Would I purchase from Showinbuy? I would certainly peruse their website for specific pieces to add throughout the seasons. Most likely it is a place I would shop for trendier pieces. I did think the quality of this top was very nice. I was really happy with it although I did not expect it to be as nice as it is. This item was definitely a win! Now the bad news. I received this top a few weeks ago and had planned to feature it in this post. Evidently, it is sold out because I would not find it on their site. This one is very similar though.

Since this type of tank isn't everyone's favorite, my Pinterest board might be a great place to get a little more inspiration.

Create28: A Denim Look

Denim. It's the perfect fabric in a variety of styles for multiple looks and occasions. Summer is no exception when it comes to denim because it's always in season. As you saw in my Favorite Go-To Look, denim shorts are one of my favorites. Boyfriend shorts and jeans are way up at the top of my list of denim picks. Since today the prompt focuses on denim, I wanted to share a few different looks that will give you ideas for styling. My first look features boyfriend shorts {of course} and a fun little chambray cami. Remember versatility? This cami is a piece that can transcend the seasons. You'll probably see it later on in the year.



Remember I'm in Texas where we love our cowboy boots with shorts. I just had to do it, friends!

As much as I love the chambray cami, I wanted to also share a light denim sleeveless blouse with boyfriend shorts. This time I tucked and added a belt. Do you own a leopard print belt? If not, you might want to invest in one. Many days it is my go-to belt especially if my look doesn't include a pattern. Just a little hint of pattern adds interest to any look.



My jewelry in this look is sparkly to add a little more interest and sophistication for a very basic outfit.

Although I have other denim shorts I have found that I really like these boyfriends the best. I know boyfriends aren't for everyone but don't let that keep you from wearing some great denim looks this summer.
