We know, we know, it's summer. No jackets allowed. But we like having something with us for those summer night events. Have you ever walked in to a restaurant or movie theater and been hit by the icy cold air conditioning. Brrrr! Going from the humid Midwest heat to a cold indoor setting (although a thankful escape) can be a little jarring. So we like to have a light jacket or over sized scarf with us for these moments.
Emma's wearing: dress c/o Tulle, shoes c/o Seychelles, scarf/UO.
Elsie's wearing: borrowed dress/Katie, jacket/AE, shoes/vintage from etsy.
Do you have a favorite summer cover up? xo. emma and elsie
When I'm super casual, I like an oversized plaid flannelette shirt for a 'jacket'. It can be tied, rolled, tucked, and stuffed. And because it's not precious, it makes a great make-shift sun shade or impromptu picnic blanket.

I pretty much never leave my house without a cardigan for that very reason! I've been caught freezing too many times...plus, cardis are super cute :)

This time I think Elsie's dress is prettier than Emma's but both are charming:) My favourite cover-up is a short black sweater that suits to every dress!

Cute dresses you two! My thrifted denim jacket has definitely been a lifesaver for chilly nights (or air conditioned movie theaters). Best $7 I ever spent :)

i love these styles and also love to just be able to walk around with a shawl over a dress on warm summer nights. my mother hand knits these beautiful shawls http://www.etsy.com/listing/99741363/cream-hand-knitted-lace-shawl-mohair and I love to wear them.

I'm loving that scarf

I like the jeans jacket for cooler summer evening, too. Sometimes I just take a scarf with me and wear it like a jacket/ oer my shoulders. And I love your shoes (both).

I agree with everyone above, I also have a couple favorite cardigans that I always have with me for summer nights. I'm always so cold in air conditioning!
