DISTRESSED JEAN SHORTS AND STRIPED STRAW TOTE

The Steele Maiden: Summer NYC wearing Nordstrom distressed jeans shorts, Talbots white oxford shirt and Elaine Turner striped straw toteAs you read this I’m probably somewhere along the Garden State Expressway – headed back to NYC after a blissful weekend away in Ocean City, NJ. I’ve got lots of beachy shots to share coming up this week, but if it’s ‘Summer in the City’ style you’re looking to see – this pretty much sums mine up.

LITTLE RED DRESS

It’s become a little tradition with Adam and I to have a NYC staycation over Memorial Day weekend. The city all but empties out and it’s fun to kick off Summer in the city where we live and love. Sunday the streets felt deserted and I hit the pavement in this little red dress.

BEST OF: MEMORIAL DAY SALES

Memorial Day weekend is one of my favorite times of year to shop. By this point in the season I’ve done my Spring cleaning and have been able to truly assess what I’m missing in my wardrobe (a pair of white jeans, black sandals and another office-ready skirt are currently topping my list) and the weather has turned so that all those cute Summer items I’ve been staring at online are now actually wearable. Oh, and it just so happens, all my favorite retailers have major sales. So aside from having an NYC staycation this long holiday weekend, I’ll be scooping up some deals. Below – my top picks:
