Why Statement Sleeves Are Perfect For Summer

I love statement making pieces! They really add personality to an outfit and allow one piece to really shine. So when statement sleeves began making an appearance I couldn’t get on board fast enough!

I think we all can agree that statement sleeves are a step above your average t-shirt or cotton shirt dress. And surprisingly enough, they’re easy to wear! Just keep the rest of your outfit minimal to let the sleeves really shine. What could be simpler than that? I love to keep things as minimal as possible when it comes to hot summer weather, while still looking chic and these statement sleeves do just that. See where I recently wore a pink statement sleeve top here, and this statement sleeve dress here.

This white crochet top with oversized sleeves is one of my favorite recent finds. I’ve worn it with a pair of jeans, shorts, and I’ve tucked it into this skirt recently for church. And thanks to the high neckline there is no need to wear a necklace since the top is pretty enough. This Chicwish top also comes in green, and pink, but I couldn’t resist the white one. When it comes to summer I can’t get enough white pieces in my wardrobe! White is great for keeping you cool, showing off a tan, and it pairs nicely with just about everything especially blue jeans.

Below I’ve feature a few more statement making sleeves that are sure to keep you looking chic this summer.

My Mother’s Day started at 4am with a nursing baby My Mother’s Day started at 4am with a nursing baby in my arms, a toddler crawling into my bed and falling asleep on my shoulder, & a doggie sleeping across my legs. 💕 They have no idea what today is, but I’m feeling so blessed to be surrounded by all my babies on Mother’s Day 👶🐶👧 Even if it was at 4am 🥱

Not pictured our dog Sydney. 🐶 I’m so tired I didn’t even notice until after we got these pictures 🤪 I knew I was forgetting something! 🙈

After laboring at home for 2 hours we JUST made it to the hospital maybe 45 minutes before he came out with 2 quick pushes! It all happened so fast my head is still spinning. 🥹 

So thankful my SIL @thedivinemissem77 answered her phone and came quickly to stay with Audrey & my hubby @npbrady9 taking care of everything else as we rushed to the hospital. ♥️ God is so good & we couldn’t be happier with the newest member of our family 🤗
