Summer Style with Naturalizer + Hello Monday Linkup

Happy Monday!

In partnership with Naturalizer, I got to pick a pair of sandals to answer a few questions about and style, so here goes! 

Q: What’s the story behind your chosen setting for these photos?

Over the weekend, husband and I met a few friends for dinner at Fitz and then planned to see The Little Mermaid at the Muny.  We stopped off at the Jefferson Memorial to snap outfit pictures, and by the time we finished and found parking, the show had already started 🙈.  So instead we grabbed Passengers on Redbox and fun drinks for a night in.  Next time we'll allow more time to park, lol.

Q: Describe your perfect staycation; where would you go, what would you wear, and who would you “staycay” with?

Well, I'd like to return to the Muny this Summer, ha!  I would also want to check a few restaurants off my 'to-try' list, eat plenty of ice cream, hit up the zoo, and spend lots of time at the pool.  My usual partners in crime are my husband and pup, Sherlock.

Q: Aside from great fashion, what’s on your summer bucket list?

That's a great question... hmm!  Having really gotten into indoor climbing lately, I'd love to work my way up to an outdoor climbing trip later this summer.  I also want to master homemade gelato.  I got a fancy ice cream maker last Christmas, and while I've mastered sorbet, I still haven't perfected my recipe for anything creamy.  For shame.

Q: How do you plan to incorporate your Kira sandals into your warm-weather wardrobe?

As much as I can!  I wear a lot of neutrals, so they provide the perfect pop of color, and they are SO comfortable.  They look super cute with cuffed jeans, or skirts and dresses.

Q: What do you love most about the Kira sandal and Naturalizer in general?

I love the combo of comfort and style!  I feel like Naturalizer has really mastered chic, modern shoes that are equally enjoyable to wear.  This season especially, there have been SO many fun colors to choose from.
