Whites and Summer Brights with Ageless Style

It's the third Thursday of the month and time for another ageless style challenge.  This month Mireille picked Whites with Summer Brights (pairing a white dress or skirt with some bright colors for the summer). 


I knew right away I wanted to pair my new white gauze skirt from Aerie with one of bright summer tops. It didn't hurt that this skirt is the only white skirt or dress I own but I really am loving this gauze material this summer and the skirt is so well made and in one of my favorite maxi length/tiered styles. 

I tried a few shirts before settling on my Lily Pulitzer tank top. When I think summer brights I always think of Lily! Plus I found that with a wide skirt like this I liked the look of a top that hugged my hips instead of hanging down loose. 




I accessorized with some fun coral/blue beaded bracelets and my sparkly white flip flops. The gold chain of the top meant I didn't need a necklace at all.

  1. The perfect summer outfit! The bright colors of the top pair nicely with the crisp white of the shirt. I mentioned that I recently bought my first Lily P- it is a pair of white shorts. I have enjoyed wearing the shorts with bright tops. I should look into getting a Lily top like the one you are wearing. The colors are great and it is a flattering style.

  7. That white skirt is perfect: I am now on the lookout for one: I haven't had a white peasant style skirt for a couple of years and I need to replace it. It works with so much! Love the pretty top with it!

    1. Thank you! My poor photographer was really complaining about the full sun and getting good shots without lots of shadows.

  11. I love those flowy skirts and they always say summer to me...but I, too, think they are tricky for styling. I don't seem to have the right (non-flowy or loose) tops that compliment them. Your top is perfect. This outfit is everything summery:)

  12. We are twinning with our white skirts and bright tops. I love the colors in this top, so pretty and perfect for summer. I am also a fan of your skirt, I've been wanting to borrow my daughters as it's perfect for the beach.

  16. Now, that is a beautiful white skirt, Joanne! I love the Lilly top with it, too. Of course, I love Lilly anyway! You look so summery and ready to go on vacation in the Caribbean!

  18. That is such a beautiful skirt. I bet it feels light. There are so many pretty gauze pieces this summer and that fabric seems to be so easy to care for and wear. I have just ordered a replacement for my too-tight white dress and I think it will be gauzy. Hoping so.
    Love the top you paired your skirt with, too. Such pretty spring-summer colors. Like dragonfly wings. Our outlet mall has an Aerie outlet. I picked up a pair of jeans I ordered from American Eagle there - I guess those stores are cousins?? - and was impressed with the pretty things they have. I need to remember to shop there more regularly. Their prices were good, too.
    The photo of you in the forest is just so pretty. Your photographers do a great job!!

    1. Thank you! It does feel very light; it's one of the reasons I am really loving gauze this summer.
