happy friday gang! this week has been all about what to wear on a beach vacation. we have really enjoyed our time on Tybee Island this week; i hope you’ve enjoyed the sights with us in this week’s posts. today i have an outfit that would be perfect at home, or on a beach vacation! a refreshing red wine spritz is our cocktail today, and we have an easy riff on lasagna with a fun zucchini lasagna appetizer.
fresh and flirty outfit of the day
when it comes to fresh and flirty skirts for summer, J.Crew is my first stop. this white eyelet peasant-style midi skirt has a blue embroidered elastic waistband and adorable blue pompons bordering the ruffle hem. this skirt is flirty, fresh and fun!
pairing it with a simple button down keeps the focus on the details of the skirt, while also lending a little sophistication to the ensemble. tying my button down at the waist keeps it from being too stuffy with the boho flirtiness of the skirt.

this ootd is not at all fussy. the extra details on the waistband, hem, and the flower eyelets on the skirt add just the right amount of fresh and flirty for summer. while the crisp button-down grounds the outfit.
what shoes to pair with this outfit? why, metallic flats of course! these metallic flats have been on style repeat all summer, as i’m sure you’ve noticed! they really have been my go-to sandals this summer. similar metallic sandals here, here, here.

easy lasagna zucchini cups
zucchini subbing in for noodles is something we are all familiar with. we’ve done zoodles and lasagna roll-ups here before and today we’re taking the idea to an appetizer format with lasagna zucchini cups.
refreshing berry wine spritz
i prefer red wine over white and this red wine cocktail is a refreshing way to enjoy red wine in the heat of the day. frozen blueberries are a fresh and cool addition to the wine and berry-flavored soda water.
fridays with oscar
all right, gang, before we say goodbye today i wanted to share that while i have been enjoying my vacation on Tybee Island several readers have alerted me that there are Instagram accounts and Google Hangouts impersonating Style at a Certain Age and or Beth Djalali. there is only one official @styleatacertainage Instagram account so please be wary and report the fake accounts if you come across them. this account never has nor will ever in the future solicit $$. that is all.
we’ve come to the end of another fridays with oscar. and we close a week of beachy vacation outfits. i hope you’ve enjoyed this week with us on Tybee Island. i have to say it was a much-needed respite after what has seemed like the longest year in history. stay tuned to the blog as we wind down the last weeks of summer and begin preparations for fall. with new home decor, new fall fashion and so much more! oscar, ollie and i wish all of you a wonderful weekend!

The ootd is fantastic. Home run! Glad you had a good vacation. It is always fun to see Oscar and Ollie. Thanks.
Love this post today Beth!
Love your outfit, clean white and crisp.
I am saving the spritzer recipe and wine, who knew…..and I love both….win/win.
Thank you,
Blessings,
Dear Beth,
you blog is so inspiring and you are a lady of style. I love your family including Oscar, Ollie and Oscar’s young friend.
You are a very warm personality, good with people and animals. We will never meet, but I feel close tp you with the Atlantic Ocean in between.
Virtual hugs and kind regards from Germany, Herta Urban
Hello Beth, I’m new to your blog and wanted you know how much I am enjoying it. I’m a bit older than you however I find your style and taste has similarities to the fashion I enjoy wearing. There are so many talented young women on social media that are amazing with fashion however classic style is always age appropriate, at least in my book,
Love the recipes and the wonderful photography! A new Texas Fan,
Sandi
Your blog now arrives in my inbox from your name rather than Style at a Certain Age as the sender as I have always received it.
Is the From Beth Dijali the legitimate one now?
I love your new hairstyle. I think it is very flattering, Jane
Now that zucchini recipe is one I will make. It looks so good. I think we need to give Ollie more attention. He’s a great looking cat.
I love this outfit but I think I would look a little overpowered in it. I’m 5’3″ so all white is a challenge.
Love your styles.
What can I say- it’s a home run! Love everything. I am thinking the zucchini dish would make an excellent supper dish for those hot summer nights. The spritzer is a lighter choice too in hot weather as alcohol really hits me in hot weather – compromise 🥂
