summer fridays: seersucker.

while the it list takes a little summer vacation, i'd like to introduce a new series called summer fridays, where we discuss some favorite things about summertime.  do you guys get summer fridays?  you know, half-days or full days off during the summer months?  wellll i don't.  i try not to be too bitter about it though!

one of my absolute favorite parts of summer are the things you only get to wear during those few months.  sadly, seersucker falls into that category.  i love everything about this preppy fabric on both guys and gals, but i very much stick to the memorial-to-labor day rule on this one.  i am also usually opposed to the full suit look - a little goes a long way, but there are some really fun exceptions to this (think: horse races!  southern weddings!  preppy bbqs!).  here's a little seersucker inspiration for you.

  1. I haven't ever owned any seersucker myself, but I always love how it looks. Nothing says summer better than a little seersucker! I especially love that first top.

  3. I have the prettiest seersucker dress, and I didn't even know that the fabric had a name! I guess you learn something every day. And I also follow the Memorial Day to Labor Day rule, just to be safe.

    And I'm kind of in love with those adorable bm dresses. So cute!
