The humidity has been so oppressive lately! I think we notice it a lot because we spend a lot of time outside at the pool, at swim meets/practice, and when I run outside. So I was excited to find some summer statement items that don’t add to the heat. Here are my 3 summer statement pieces (that coincidentally look really good together):

Flowy linen dress in Bright Melon from Universal Standard
- Linen is the best fabric for summer. It’s lightweight and cool. I normally don’t go for linen because of the wrinkle factor, but this isn’t too bad. I took these photos after I wore it to church. The style of the dress helps with airflow, too. And it’s absolutely gorgeous as you move. It floats around you as you walk. I’m obsessed with this bright melon color. I don’t have anything in my closet like it. Keep your eye out for a sale next week I’ll share more about soon!

Glam heels from Alibaba
- I’m in love with these mule style heels from Alibaba. The soft colors are muted enough that they really look good with anything. But there are details like the soft shimmer, rhinestone strap, and detail on the heels. They are so pretty! There is a turquoise version I really want now! Use this link for 15% off their shoes.

Stunning jewelry from German Kabriski
- I have 2 rings now from German Kabriski and I get compliments and comments every time I wear them. The designs are like nothing I have ever seen before. It’s not even jewelry, it’s art! German Kabriski uses a lot of rough stones, different types of metals and unique settings to create wearable works of art. The Lideni Blue sapphire ring I recently got reminds me of fishing nets and the blue sapphire of the water. In my mind it has a summery, nautical feel to it.
How do you do glam in summer? I find that selecting summer statement pieces like these and putting them together is a better option than layering or adding lots of accessories!
Last week’s favorite post was from Mireille from Chez Mireille. She did a spin on a look from Dirty Dancing that is perfect for summer!
