Hello ladies, and welcome to Dressed for My Day. I’m spending a few days with my parents in Georgia while James attends a conference in Atlanta. I know! We just moved into our new home in Cincinnati, Ohio, Monday!! And Tuesday we drove to Atlanta. Just crazy timing. But I’m thankful for the opportunity to visit family anytime I can get it. And in the spirit of vacationing…I’m sharing this fun summer duo that’s perfect for an outdoor party or vacation.
You know I love white denim. In fact, later this week I’ll be posting 20 Ways to Wear White Denim for Spring & Summer. Just about any way you could wear this classic white jean shorts, you could also style your white jeans or crops.
These white denim shorts by Wit & Wisdom feature an ab-solution mold-and-hold technology that creates a slimming silhouette with great comfort. They fit true to size. I’m wearing the 8.
But I love white denim with this blue lagoon print button up shirt. The shirt runs large, so size down. I’m wearing the small, and it’s quite roomy on me.
I did a partial tuck with the shirt in the front, leaving it to blouse out in the back.
I have really enjoyed this white rimmed sunglasses this summer. They pair beautifully with so many summer pieces. And I feel sure I’ll tuck them away and then pull them out again next spring.
I also find myself slipping into these saddle leather slides quite frequently. But if you’d like a less expensive option, check out these slides by Sam Edelman at Walmart.
I love combining white denim with bright colors like this for a cookout or outdoor party. But this is also an outfit worth packing for vacation.

Blessed for My Day
Do you ever wonder if some of the Bible is outdated? Or maybe some of the teachings are no longer applicable because of the day and time in which we live? It’s quite tempting to grow discouraged with the distance between the teachings of the Bible and the norms of our culture and simply throw your hands in the air and suppose that God’s Word is no longer valid.
But whether you are grappling with your priorities, decisions about the media you’re watching, the vocabulary you use or the ways you take care of your finances, the Bible still applies. And if you’re looking for answers in regards to your marriage, other relationships, your diet or how you use your time, the Bible has relevant teachings there, too. Don’t ever let anyone tell you the Bible or its teachings are out of date. It simply isn’t true.
The sum of your word is truth, and every one of your righteous rules endures forever. ~ Psalm 119:160
In your post on white jeans for spring and summer, could you include fall? I would love to wear white jeans in the fall (here in New England) since in the summer, I rarely wear pants (mostly dresses and shorts in the hot weather so I want to extend my white jean season). Enjoy your family visit!
Hi Arna. You bet! I absolutely will include tips for wearing them into the fall. ?
Thank you!
I would love to see the transition of white pants into Fall as well. You are amazing to have kept up with your Blog, traveling, visiting family and unpacking in these short few days! No doubt you’ll be anxious to begin nesting soon! Yes, the Bible is God-breathed and alive! It’s relevant for every generation and to each individual!
Hi Kay. I now you are exhausted from all the moving preparations and travel. IMO, there is nowhere better you can be than in the great state of Georgia. LOL! I was born and raised here although we spent 12 years in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and loved it.
Having been raised in the deep south, I have not been able to break through the ‘no white before Easter and after Labor Day.’ I am still trying but without much success. I remember going to church on the Sunday nearest Mother’s Day and wearing a red rose because my mother was still living. Those whose mother had passed wore a white rose. Some of these traditions are so ingrained in us that it is hard to ignore them. Anyway, I hope you will be happy in Ohio and enjoy your family while in Georgia. “GO JACKETS!”
Thanks for your Blessed For My Day thoughts. Our church is struggling with these very issues. It appears culture and pressure from the world rule instead of what is in the Bible. I’m trying to focus on how I treat others who feel differently than I do…but it’s still sad and certainly has resulted in a loss of many members.
BFMD is perfect! Welcome home to Georgia! I know that you will cherish the family time, but I suspect you will be glad to leave the high humidity behind when you head back to OH. And as April said, GO JACKETS! I know you are a UGA fan, and I will say that I root for the Dawgs when they are not playing against GT. I am actually wearing a pair of Time and Tru white capris/peddle pushers from Wal-Mart today. That is a brand worth checking out for those that are budget conscious, like I am. Oh, is there a challenge for this week? Thank you, and have a great day!
I just loved the flower bush you were posing next to. It will be interesting to see what your new landscape is now that you are in a different state. I can’t wait to see pictures of your new place! I have always been nervous to wear whites on my bottom half, because of getting them dirty. Your outfits look great and I love all the versatility. I don’t look good in white so I don’t tend to wear white on shirts, which takes out a huge neutral for me. Looking forward to seeing posts from Ohio!
