98 degrees

I wore this last month on what had to be the hottest day of 2011 in NYC. I really wanted to get fancy and take some great pictures in the city, but I am not worth 2 cents when it's above 85. Hopefully the weather treats me better when I return in the fall.
A view of Manhattan from Queens!

wearing: h&m dress, nordstrom jewelry, mia sandals
worn to: run the hot, humid, crowded streets of new york city & the much calmer but equally hot streets of queens

    Casual and chic, I love it. Yeah, as much as I love summer and the sun, I hate sweating. The necklace looks great with your tan!

    You are so, so summery. Loves it. And I'm also jealous you have enough hair to have a ponytail on these nasty days. I'm trying to grow out my short cut and all I get is a bunch of frizz when I'm more than 3 weeks past a touch up!

    Very pretty! So simply and light. I love turquoise in the summertime. I hear you on hot weather. Grew up in Houston, where it's 100+ and humid during the summer. Was prone to heat stroke as a child! If it gets above 80, I'm completely useless. Now that I live in the NW, it's so much milder here--summer and fall are the best.

    I think the look is stunning, very New York from what I remember the girls wearing...last year. Its fresh, and sometimes thats all that matters when the weather is above 85!!

    How adorable is the first photo despite the heat. I've been told by every NY go in the Fall and you darling proved it to be some good advice. You do look lovely. Love the pop of color with the necklace.

    So lady like, pretty! The color of the necklace, stunning. & I almost bought those MIA sandals from Macy*s, well I did buy them, but then returned them. Now I wish I didn't.
