Color Forward with Tammie Athena

Last Spring’s favorite is still getting plenty of love! 🌸
I pulled out my cabi Misty Top from last spring, this time styled with black instead of brown, and I’m reminded all over again just how easy this print is to wear. It somehow keeps working with so many things in my closet!
I paired it with the cutest Banana Republic linen skort and my ever-favorite Sam Edelman Ellina strappy flats. Easy, comfortable and perfect for a warm day. ☀️
And if you loved the Misty style, you’re in luck! We now have the Misty Top AND matching skirt in this gorgeous burgundy with our new arrivals—and they’re already selling quickly. ❤️
Plus, I have to mention the fabric because it’s one of my favorite things about this set: wash, line dry and wear. Easy care is always a win!
If you’ve been eyeing the Misty, don’t wait too long! 😉

Happy Birthday to our baby sis, Sophia Mary! 🎉❤️
What an incredible year it has been for you—graduating from Syracuse University with a degree in Broadcast and Digital Journalism, and now working as a reporter for KGET News. We are beyond proud of the woman you are and all that you are accomplishing!
Keep your focus on Jesus, and He will continue to guide your steps and open the right doors for you.
We love you so, so much!✨

One of those outfits that just makes getting dressed easy. ♥️
The Primrose Top is long sleeve, but don’t let that fool you—it’s made from the softest cotton lawn, making it perfect for those warm days when you still want a little sleeve. It fits, flares and flatters…three of my favorite things! 😉
I paired it with the new Drew Jean in the regular length. It also comes in short and long, which I love! It’s a high-rise, easy-fit wide leg in the same super-stretch denim as our best-selling Jamie. 👖
And can we talk about the shoes? I LOVE a pointed toe with a wide-leg pant. It helps elongate the leg and gives the whole look a little more polish.
These are C.Paravano, and I especially love that buckle detail on top—it makes them feel just a little fancy. ✨
Are you a pointed-toe + wide-leg girl too? 👠

Still a little toasty around here, so I’m not quite ready to let go of summer dressing! ☀️
Tonight it was the Banana Republic Archive reissue cargo shorts—a timeless piece that I think will always have a place in my closet—paired with an easy black linen tank.
Add the Sam Edelman Presley strappy heel sandals, and I’m ready for a quick dinner out. 🖤👡
Sometimes the easiest outfits are the ones I reach for over and over again. Simple, comfortable, and just dressed up enough. ✨

Book club night = good friends, good conversation, and of course…a little outfit fun! 📚🍷😉
I pulled out a few new cabi favorites: the Jackson Jean, our new mid-rise slim boyfriend, paired with the Kick It Shirt—one of our ever-popular styles that now comes in white AND light pink. 🤍🩷 Add the reversible Benatar Belt and I was ready to go!
But let’s talk about these shoes! 👟 I finally tried the Vivaia breathable mesh Mary Jane sneakers that everyone has been talking about, and WOW…I get it now! They are SO cushy and airy, and the dark espresso color is just perfect for fall. 🤎
I wore them for the first time all evening and my feet were very happy with my decision. Comfortable AND cute? That’s a win in my book!
And yes…for anyone who has been asking me about them, I highly recommend! 🙌🏼
Now, back to the book…although we probably talked about everything BUT the book for part of the night!

Last day of 100+ degree heat called for one thing: the coolest cotton skirt I could find, a bright pink tank, and lots of jewelry. 💕☀️

And then my girls said, “Mom, I LOVE your outfit! You’re giving major throwback Britney Spears/Miley Cyrus vibes.” 😂

Ummm… I’m not entirely sure how I feel about that one. 👀 But I do know this outfit was absolutely perfect for the temps!

Sometimes you just have to dress for the weather… and apparently channel your early-2000s pop star era while you’re at it. 💖✨

Hot night, easy date night. ☀️❤️
Keeping it simple for a little date night with Mr. Handsome because when it’s hot, easy is the name of the game!
I’m wearing Banana Republic’s mid-rise barrel ankle jeans—although I’d say they fit much more like a high rise—and their slub cotton bubble-hem halter tank. I love that the tank is self-lined, which is especially appreciated when you're sweating your way through a hot summer evening. 😂
I added my faux raffia Sam Edelman wedges for all the summer vibes. 👡☀️
Nothing too complicated, just a comfortable outfit, my favorite guy, and a night out. Sometimes that's all you need. ❤️

This is such a good summer-to-fall outfit! 🍫🍂
The Absolute Top in Dark Chocolate is an updated version of our ever-popular Complete Top, now with a flattering V-neck and higher armholes. And because it's our easy-care classic poly, it looks polished without being fussy—always a win in my book!
I paired it with the Quinn Skort, which is perfect for these warm-weather days but has that little hint of fall. I love that it can also be styled with navy or black, making it such a versatile piece.
Finished with my go-to Sam Edelman Bianka slingbacks and the Poppy oversized drawstring clutch in gold—the puffiest little bag that adds just the right amount of fun. ✨ And bonus: it's currently on sale!
I'm definitely ready for fall dressing... but I'm also perfectly happy keeping things cool while I wait for the temperatures to catch up! 😂
