SUMMERTIME BLUES

From Cobalt to Navy to Aqua, this summer is all about the blues! Here are some cool tones to find locally:

This Bread and Butter dress is made from the softest jersey and is so flattering with its low cut back. Gus Mayer at Colonial Brookwood Village $178 and up. www.gusmayer.com

This jumper by Walter is perfect for the summer. Throw it on to go have lunch with a friend or to catch a date movie. Walter can be found at The Clothes Tree off Acton Road and Rocky Ridge. They have an amazing selection of brands you will love!

Tag Jean shorts are the must have of the moment with everyone from Jessica Simpson to Shannon Elizabeth sporting these. Don't worry all you anti- shorties, they also have Bermuda shorts that are very in style and very cute! Tag Jeans is found locally at Swank 35223 in Mountain Brook Village. Visit www.swank35223.com

Frenzii is my new favorite brand. These jersey dresses are so comfy and so flattering you will have to own more than one. Going long makes this look sophisticated but still very casual. Frenzii can be found at Lara at Patton Creek $79 and up.

These Stuart Weitzman flats. Aqua washed boa makes these shoes so unique. Available at Gus Mayer at Colonial Brookwood Village $225. www.gusmayer.com

Just Add Water at The Summit is a great place to shop for bathing suits because you can actually by tops and bottoms separately. This blue hipster suit is very flattering top $59, bottom $59. www.justaddwater.com

Cobalt blue is an eye catching must have color this summer. Another great jersey dress from Francesca's Collection $42. www.francescascollection.com

I had to add this fabulous find since shopping for business attire is always such a struggle in the summer. This navy and cream Charles Nolan contrast jacket is on sale at Saks Fifth Avenue at The Summit and is so chic! www.saks.com
