Shades of Blue

For the past couple of days, I’ve been on vacation at Ocean Isle Beach with my family. Since the weather was in the high 70s, it was the perfect opportunity to wear this printed blouse from Ennobra Bloom Boutique! Ennobra Bloom has a great collection of beachy tunics and blouses, but this one may be my favorite of all. The preppy pattern and silky feel make this blouse sophisticated yet comfortable… even for a day of shopping!
And speaking of shopping, while we were on vacation my mom and I stopped by the Tanger Outlets in Myrtle Beach, SC. In my opinion, they are the best outlets in the region because they have a Kate Spade outlet. Since all of the bags were 50% off, I couldn’t resist the Wellesley Alessa bag – I fell in love with the robin’s egg blue color! I may or may not have opened the shopping bag and switched out my purses right then and there. Oops!
Happy Friday, loves! What are your plans for the weekend?

  14. I go on vacation every year to Ocean Isle with my family! It is my favorite beach in NC, easily. Also the Tanger Outlets are my weakness – the ones not too far from my house closer to Raleigh don't have Kate Spade, which is probably a good thing. Love your outfit!

  23. You know what, I give you 100% credit for turning me on to Kate Spade ever since you posted a couple bags from their MB outlet last Summer. I've been stalking their site for a long time since then and finally fell in love and bought my first bag. And I'm loving it so much. I got the goldie primrose (a cute cream bag). I LOVE the blue one you got. So adorable.
