Stumped on Summer Outfit Accessorizing

I miss you ladies! I had a deadline and just get so caught up in the craziness.

I'm wearing L & Ls with a simple, cool, breezy top. I tried on a couple of different belts and necklaces, but really don't know what to wear to pull it together. Are heavy belts not good in the summer? What about thinner belts with L & Ls. I'm realizing my belt collection is woefully small. hehe

And can I wear the green halter with these L & Ls or better with boots or skinnies?

Thanks for any help!!

You don't look stumped.
I actually love the big belt in 1/2, but the overall look is kind of saying "cowboy on summer vacation". Which I like.
Love the necklace in 4 - do you have a close-up of that one?
Yes to the top in 5.

Thanks, fern. Hahaha, yes, "cowboy on summer vacation." You nailed it. I'll see if I can find a close up of the necklace.

Did you try the white shirt untucked too? Just curious. The outfit is fine but the wide belt does seem a bit "heavy" for summer. The necklace in #3 looks really pretty but my only thought is maybe a bit chunky for the heat. I really like the halter with the jeans.

Thanks texstyle. Yes, I will try it untucked. Good idea.

fern, here is the necklace up close (with a very dirty mirror- yikes!)

I prefer a belt to fill the loop holes therefore I really like #1 and #2. Perhaps you have a wardrobe hole for a textured lighter belt such as Angie's snakeskin belt?

I think the halter works beautifully with your L&L's.

Thank you! I like that style a lot.

I like the L&LS with the belt in #4. A big belt is fine in the summer IMO. The top is def. summery. And I love the way everything looks with the untucked green top. No need to go with skinnies as this blouse is not oversized, it's just soft. The shoulders and bust look properly fitted and it's not too long, that's why it doesn't need to be balanced on the bottom.

Pics #4 and 5 are my favorite looks if you're deciding what to wear right now.

Actually, it all looks great to me! I love your breezy top in the first outfit and am looking for one like it. Would you mind sharing the link if it is still available? Gorgeous necklace and you look stunning in green!

Oh my - these all look fabulous and I particularly love the outfit in pic #4. I actually kind of like a heavier/more masculine belt with jeans so this look is right up my alley. Plus I like the juxtaposition of a heavier belt with the very feminine top - very cool IMO.

You look stunning in the green halter BTW! yes, you can wear it with those jeans.

You look great! I really like the thick belt, but I also like the blue belt as a sort of fresh look. The halter looks wonderful on you and with the jeans.

I like all these looks. As long as you are comfortable and not too warm, wear these L&L outfits proudly.

Omg, I love the turquoise halter with them! I like the idea to try a snakeskin belt. Or zebra!

I like the blue belt in #3. Very summery. And the necklace is also very pretty. Ditto #5.

Thanks everyone. So helpful! I like the idea of a lighter, textured belt and also want to try it untucked.
