Blonde Block Party

Hello lovelies!  I'm so excited to be hosting the Blonde Block Party today!  The Blonde Block Party is a summer series that Cat at the Budget Blonde, Heather at Blonde Undercover Blonde and I started to share all the things we love about summer . . . fashion, food, music, movies, books, and so much more! [If you missed the first installment on Cat's blog, click here!]



Don't you love SUMMER?!  Hope you enjoy what we blondes (or undercover blondes) have in store for you today ;)
Take it away, Cat ...

Hi y'all! My name is Cat & I'm so excited to be here at the second Blonde Block Party!

I'm the author of...

which is a blog all about living a fabulous life for less!

Today, I'm going to share some gorgeous and unique summer accessories that are sure to grab some attention!

First up, I thought this butterfly hair accessory was so interesting! Can't you imagine it paired with a colorful summer sundress? It would take a little bit of guts to wear it, but the result is so worth it!



Next, I have to say, Betsy Johnson is one of my favorite designers! Her pieces always have such great personality and color to them. These delicate starfish earrings are no exception. They are just the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe.

And lastly, my favorite fashion trend this summer is lace! I see it everywhere! The lace shorts below are designer, but I snagged a similar pair for myself on the sale rack at White House Black Market. So, keep your eyes peeled, ladies! All these accessories would make an amazing addition to your outfits this summer!

Thanks, Cat!  I love the starfish earrings!  I'd definitely love to have them apart of my summer wardrobe!  


Next up ... Heather is here to share her favorite drink this summer!  

Hello gorgeous!

Thank you for reading the second Blonde Block Party!

I'm Heather from...

Today I am sharing one of my favorite parts of summer...

And the fall, if we're being honest too...

Okay, fine, year round.

Sangria!

 While my father in law makes the best Sangria ever, here's a recipe worth trying:

{photo and recipe from here.}

Mix all ingredients together in a large pitcher. Refrigerate until chilled. Serve over ice.

 Yummy!

Mmm... that sounds delicious! I'd love a glass right now! ;)


Now, we've talked about trendy summer fashion and cool, delicious beverages ... 
How about taking your cute summer look and yummy cocktail out on the town?!


My turn for the Blonde Block Party!

Y'all know ... I love music!  I'm always going to concerts ... well, Jason Aldean concerts ;)

In the summertime,  I love outdoor concerts and music festivals!

This month,  I'm going to see NKOTBSB!  [Anyone see them in concert, how was it?!  I'm so excited!]

Next month,  I'm off to Chicago to see Jason Aldean! [Shocker! I know ;) It will be my 6th concert in one year ... I can't wait!]

There is a summer concert series in Central Park that I always say I'm going to go to when I like the artists and I still haven't gone!  Miranda Lambert and Pitbull were both there recently and I'm so disappointed I wasn't able to go!

Speaking of Pitbull ... his song Give Me Everything Tonight is totally my favorite song of the summer right now!

Do you like outdoor concerts and music festivals?  Have you been to any shows this summer?

We've had so much fun hosting the Blonde Block Party and we hope you'll continue to read our series as it continues Heather's blog!

Have a fabulous day lovelies! xo
