Dress: Privacy Please by Revolve. Boots: Dolce Vita. Bag: Vintage Gucci. Sunglasses: Ray-Ban.

Today’s dress certainly coordinates with heat map coverage of the area. Lately Nashville has been seeing days in the high 70s, 80s, and even hitting 90.

A floral dress paired with booties (rather than cowboy boots) is a modern take on the southern girl style. A skirt keeps one cool in this weather but the outfit is still put together. You could even call this the “basic” southern girl look. I don’t mind. I’ll be basic if it means staying cool.

The food shot is from my favorite new café, Dozen Bakery in the Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood. Their tartines and baked goods are mouth-watering. Also – look at that shaved brussels sprouts salad!
