What I Wore Wednesday: August 1

It is not August already. Tell me it's not August already!!!
Nope, it is... I was out early running this morning with my neighbor, and it's already HOT. It's August, for sure.
It's also Wednesday, so I am joining up with What I Wore Wednesday over at the Pleated Poppy again! Well, this is the second time. And this week is extra "special" because Hannah had an accident with my beloved little camera (with the self-timer)... and it bent the lens and died.  It was a sad day! But, I have to remind myself (over and over, because I miss it) that it is just a thing. Just a camera. First-world-problem. Let it go. So, these are grainier cell phone self-portraits... sorry, not even cool Instagram pictures, I know! Another first-world-problem. I need to stop that!

First up: I "sun-dressed up!" (pictured with Gus the Wonder Dog. He doesn't wear accessories. Ever.)
Chambray sundress: Target
Brightly-Lined Scarf: Noonday Collection. This is a favorite. The four colors make it so much more versatile than I ever expected (because I don't wear a lot of patterns) and it brings a lot of life to anything I wear it with!
Sseko Sandals with favorite red ties: Noonday Collection. 

Denim button-up top: Buffalo Exchange.
Black shorts: Old Navy. These are the perfect length, cut. Modest, but not campy. And they have a cute little drawstring tie at the top, which really "tied it together" with my sandals. (Stop me now, that pun was ridiculous!)
Sseko sandals with black ties: Noonday Collection. I love these shoes. Being able to switch the straps makes it seem like I have countless more options! See the challenge Sseko has going on this month: (30 Ties in 30 Days!) They are comfortable, you can wear them a different way every day if you like, and they don't flop, so you don't have to curl your toes at all to keep them on when you walk, and they're a lot stealthier than flopping around all day! Plus, those ties are too cute!

 Here's the running clothes I chose for this morning.
Do.not.wear.this.
Clearly, I still felt like I was in Argentina, where it is winter, because the running tights and long sleeved shirt were so not necessary. Too much in fact. I broke an amazing sweat this morning. But, after a hot shower and a hot cup of coffee, I felt unstoppable!

 All fresh and clean:
Gingham top: Target
Blue shorts: Old Navy (once I found shorts I liked there, I bought another pair). No ties on this pair though.
I am still wearing my Ssekos with brown straps, though!
Minted Necklace: Noonday Collection. Handmade paper beads from Uganda. I love the color of this necklace. It's like mint-chip ice cream.
Tagua seed bracelet: Noonday Collection
Gold earrings: gift from Meg!
