My blog, Get Your Pretty On, is all about easy, affordable ways for moms to look put together without a lot of effort. I love translating trends into everyday, wearable style.
Today I'm going to show you some of my favorite simple summer outfits that I've been wearing to keep cool and look put together. It's hot here, ya'll!
