July Favorites



My favorite purchase in July was a new purple Camelbak as it will become an essential part in my daily routine when school starts. I usually have a water bottle with me during my classes. Hydration is key when you're a collegiate athlete. My goal for this school year is to drink a full Camelbak during each class. Luckily when Amazon Prime had the early sales for Prime members (college students get free amazon prime, which is a must for being a student). I wasn't looking to buy anything originally, but was curious about the Prime Day deals, and when I came across the sale on Camelbak's I knew that I had to have one.

One item that I fell in love with was the J.Crew Downtown Field Jacket. I have wanted one for the longest time, because it is perfect for fall weather; not too heavy and comfortable enough to layer with. I love the army green color, as it becomes a neutral yet bold color a perfect combination with patterns like gingham or polka dots. It was finally on sale at J.Crew Factory for 60 percent off! I was shocked and knew that it needed to be in my closet. There will be a future post coming this fall with this lovely jacket!

The J.Crew Cotton Jackie Cardigan sweater is one of my favorite items to watch when J.Crew has a 50-60 percent off sale. What’s better than great deals from an amazing company? I kept refreshing my computer to see the new sale items and deals. I bought both cardigans in the J.Crew store in Grand Rapids, and both were 50 percent off. I love how comfortable these cardigans are as layering them in any season is a no brainer.

My Lauren James Seersucker Bow shorts are the most comfortable piece that I have worn this summer. I have been eyeing these for a while, and finally took the plunge when Lauren James had the Big Pink Sale at the beginning of this month. I love the large bow that ties in the front to give a more dramatic look to these shorts. The Royal Blue color with the seersucker touch to them makes for a wonderful pair of shorts. Check out my full post on these shorts here.

Summer Seersucker



At the beginning of July, Lauren James had their annual BIG SALE! I was up at one o'clock in the morning, and I was impressed by the amazing deals. I’ve always lusted after their striped Bow Shorts. They're adorable, and have hints of the classic seersucker. I read countless reviews about sizing. I ended up choosing to buy the shorts in a large for extra room around the thighs and waist. I am always nervous when buying from a company online, when I cannot physically try on the items in my cart. My risk must have paid off, because I’m in love with these shorts! They fit like a glove. The length is not too short, but not too long; a comfortable and classy mid-length. The shorts are perfect to wear while walking downtown in Grand Rapids, and staying comfortable and cute while having fun. During the summer or spring, these shorts would be essential to wear. I'm already obsessed already, and can't wait to buy more from Lauren James!
















Traveling downtown Grand Rapid is always wonderful when finding hidden gems around the city.
Your Day Just Got Better in Lauren James.
