AMERICAN SUMMER

My kind of red, white and blue

I never thought a Spanish company with a Russian model could inspire me to go cliché and sport patriotic hues tomorrow. But like me, don’t you love the Mango Summer 2012 catalog’s version of America’s beloved reds, whites and blues, too?

Had to throw in the military look there for good measure.

For those in the states, hope you get to celebrate in style tomorrow!

p.s. I’m also celebrating working moms today on What Would Gwyneth Do and the “I Don’t Know How She Does It” series, with summer picks for daughter and me!

    Everything does look incredibly chic, especially mixed in with the military/khaki look and feel.
