Got My Eye on Eyelet

There's something about the summer that makes me want to wear a white eyelet dress. That is, when it's not making me want to dress like a sailor.

There's something about eyelet that calls to me - the daintiness, the femininity, the airiness. When the heat comes calling, I want some eyelet.

Once upon a time I had a lovely white eyelet dress that I wore all darn summer long. I wore it here, I wore it there, I wore it everywhere. And then, sadness of sadnesses, it snagged on something and ripped wide open. It was devestating. So I find myself this summer with no eyelet in my life. Okay, not no eyelet, but no white eyelet dress, and it breaks my heart. And while I was searching for a replacement, I thought I'd give you all the eyelet options that caught my eye.

Website Spotlight: Basic Boutique

I have friends who blog, but I've never made friends before from blogging. Until recently that is. Yesterday I had the great delight to meet up for brunch with some blogger buddies. They're a great group of girls and I had a blast.

It just so happens that one of these lovely blogger friends I've made is also the owner of Basic Boutique. You might recognize the name from the shopping links on the side bar or some clothing options I've featured here. For an avid online shopper, it was a pretty fun meet up!

This is the lovely Andrea who created and runs Basic Boutique in addition to working a full time job. She's only 29. Isn't that crazy??

So I thought it made sense to do a little spotlight on Basic Boutique and give you some of my faves from the site. Happy shopping and check out Basic Boutique for yourself!
