Phew! I'm back to my regular outfit posting! I can't believe I haven't taken real outfit shots since early July. Do I look any different? Okay, yeah, I have curly hair! It has been so hot here with high humidity. Blowdrying is a living nightmare. Plus with swimming in Lake Michigan with friends over the weekend, I just let it go. It's been a super fun summer though! Summers in Michigan can't be beat.
We scooted down to the Grand Haven sundial tonight to grab some quick photos! I always love the rivers embedded in the entrance area to the musical fountain. We grabbed some ice-cream (I got non-fat frozen yogurt, trying to be good!) and went and played on the playground for a bit. I spun Brett super fast on this disc thing and I was cracking up so hard. He got off, with his hat sideways and walked away stumbling. Haha! Love that kid.
I absolutely love this lace top from andwhatelseisthere. I've been wearing it a lot lately, especially with floral skirts. I've been really wanting to try just wearing a bra underneath like a lot of bloggers are doing lately, but I just feel so riskay. Okay, I've gotten made fun of before for saying riskay. I say it on purpose. It's funny. Read definition number two at Urban Dictionary. Bite me.
In other news, I wanted to announce that I'm part of the Lucky Style Collective! I've been so excited about it for months and have been working away at a few different things for it. I can't wait to tell you guys about something super fun coming up with Lucky! Be sure to check it out and the other bloggers involved. I'm super lucky (get it? get it? aha!) to be working with such amazing ladies!

Ice cream is the best solution for this unbelievable heat.

I really love your hair curly! And those are some great shoes. Congrats on being in the collective.
loving your hair here, it looks gorgeous!! love the JCs too
Your hair looks so pretty like that! I also love your orange shorts paired with the awesome booties.
Hahaha! I say risqué too! I know what you mean... I've seen tons of bloggers pull off a sheer shirt + bra without a cami, in a really classy way, but I'm not quite brave enough to try it.
You are looking super cute in those shorts, lady! This outfit reminds me of Halloween, in the best way possible. I love Halloween and I LOVE this outfit ;)
love your hair curly, I can see why you love that top, i'm nowhere near brave enough just to wear bra and sheer shirt

Urban dictionary is so fun and dirty. hahaha... or risque? Anwho, I say wear a cute nude or black black and you'll be fine. I actually wore a nude bra under my nude lace top and Zach told me to "cover up". hehehe...I just like how it's less layers for the summer.
i love these shorts!

Steffys Pros and Cons
Aw i love all the sweet locations you guys have in Grand Haven. I have this black lace top as well and I never know how to style it...great idea with floral skirts/bright shorts! So pretty tieka!
Bwahaha! Riskay! Yeah, Kyle hates the term "Ombre". So I say it a lot :P
I am loving the shirt! You could layer it over a floral strappy dress, kinda 90's like :) The shorts are awesome, I never think to wear orange, but more of it is making its way into my closet!
Congrats on Lucky!! I can't wait to see how you are involved, you always come up with creative stuffs.
First, congrats on the Lucky opportunity, Tieka! I know you'll be amazing, and it's so awesome to see genuinely real and stylish girls with big hearts like yours in my favorite magazines :) And second, I absolutely LOVE your hair curly.
Cute outfit...I love that the heels of your shoes match your top :) Congrats on being included in the Lucky Style Collective.

I love your hair like this Tieka! I have very similar curly hair myelf and after years of brushing and brushing and straightening I finally learned to love my curly hair and as my mam always says people pay to have hair like ours!
Your outfit is so cute, orange lace shorts- what a combination!
PS. I love the word riskay!

How long ago did you get the shorts! i need some in my life :)
I adore those shoes! Cute outfit :)

Wowww, i love your shoes and the whole outfit is beautiful! Loving the hair too :)!
I am loving those shoes, they're so dangerous...and not in the bad way! And even though it may be a bit riskay (sorry, I couldn't resist), I'm sure you could definitely pull off the bra and the top alone
P.S Congrats on the Lucky (no pun intended) opportunity!

Love your shorts! Especially the color! I had never been a big fan of oranges/yellows, but this season has changed all that for me. So in love! Your Jeffrey Campbell's are too cute!

P.S. I love your curly hair! Natural's the way to go :)
Hello, I've been a reader for a few months and I thought I would share some love! Your blog is wonderful and I enjoy reading about your adventures!
Also, your hair is great! From a fellowette curly/wavy-haired girl, it's nice to see others with the same mane rockin' it!
Best,
Sarah
I think your hair is beautiful au naturale!
im in love with your orange shorts. it gives a nice pop of color! :)

Also have to say that I like your hair better when it's curly! If you get that without working on it, you are so lucky! I'd have to put my hair in pillow rollers for it to look like that
you're so stinkin' cute!
~Mel
I don't know what I love better, your orange shorts or your curls!!! Looking so beautiful my dear. xoxo Kim www.eatsleepwear.com
You're too smart and too stylish not to use the French "risque´". Why mess with the original? (Especially if meaning #2 on urban dictionary is the translation from the French definition)
Keep it real, honey. No need to Americanize a term that's perfectly good and on point to begin with.
Lol at anonymous above.... it's your blog, say it how you please lady :)
I wear cami's underneath my sheer items too... I just can't bear the thought of others seeing my bra and it's a little weird for my husband too! Haha :)
your hair looks great curly!
Hooray for Grand Haven! We spent a great day on the beach out there last summer. I keep wanting to scoot over there this summer too!
Love, Leigh
Loving the lace shorts....pretty pics too!
Julie Del @ J.Bird
You have been missed ;) those shoes are smokin x
Those shorts are amazing. I have friends who do the bra under lace thing and it looks good but I just am not brave enough for that, I'd feel too naked I think! Congrats on your teaming up with Lucky, that's awesome!
I adore your heels and you look so adorable with wavy hair Tieka! :D
Wow, CONGRATS Tieka!!!!! How exciting, can't wait to hear more about it!! Love everything about this outfit, the top, orange shorts(!) and shoes!
Lidi @ Eclectic Flair
I really like your hair when you wear it wavy. It's so natural looking & pretty. Very Summery and free. :)
I just adore your hair curly, Tieka! And that top is too cute. Love the pictures, and congrats on the Lucky thing! Super exciting, for sure.
You look so lovely! I never thought to pair orange and black but it is bangin'.
I am a fairly conservative dresser but my opinion on the lace top with bra is that it is more of an evening look. If I were to stroll through the grocery store with my bra visible I would feel a little too risque... but at night my fashion rule is: if Marc Bolan would do it, so should we all.
I have those exact same shorts, but mine are in baby pink. Damn. Now I'm jealous.
Man, those shoes. I'm saving up for my own pair of Litas and I just can't wait!
what a yumy coloured pair of shorts. i'm still saving up for lita's so i hopefully get one by my birthday this year!
your so beautful!
