Breezy Summer Dress

Summer dresses make me SO happy!! Even better when it is a great paisley print in my opinion. This dress has such a cute smocked waist detail, and is silk so it is flowy and easy while still being excellent quality.  I love this dress with cute gold wedges and a little pop of pink in my clutch to bring out the pink in the paisley print.  Happy Shopping!

The Polished Bow

There are few things in life that can make you feel as instantly polished as an A-line midi skirt. And this is absolutely one of my favorites! It's blush, it's lightweight, it has a slit in the front, and most importantly it has this gorgeous bow.

Are you guys ready for a pro tip?  Bows do not have to be double loop, bunny ear looking things, especially not when you are elevating your bow skirt to office wear.  To get this super cute half bow look, you start a normal bow, then continue to pull one of the loops through until you have a one-loop bow with loose ends that dangle and that's it!  Instantly polished with a fresh take on the classic bow! Happy shopping!

Paisley & Stripes

Pattern mixing for the win!  I am such a sucker for paisley and this pretty little skirt is no exception! The key when it comes to pattern mixing is to keep the color families in your pieces the same - here I played up on the blue and white of the paisley pattern with a simple navy and white striped T.  This would also look amazing with a pink-ish and white stripe or polka dots in either color family.   If you aren't feeling so brave, or just want to jump into pattern mixing slowly, pair a solid in between your patterns to break them up visually.  You get the same effect, but it feels safer.  My add here was a solid navy blue cardigan - bonus - this look can head straight to the office!  Happy shopping!

These lace-ups flats are seriously just what I needed today! Even when your outfit is all neutrals, these flats are anything but! I'm taking this look straight to Lowe's so I can finish buying all of the crap I need for an upcoming bathroom remodel, which to be honest cannot be done soon enough!! Happy Shopping!

Casual Chambray

Chambray is versatile, cute, comfortable, and at times, completely difficult to style.  I paired my Chambray with white jeans - perfect for Spring, a super cute pink tassel necklace, a leopard clutch and my perfect pink sandals!  Happy Shopping!

Chambray & Neon

Similar Chambray under $50! // Similar Sweater under $60! // Similar Jeans under $60!! // 

Anyone else love the denim on denim look but just.can't.do.it?  Your perfect solution is to separate your denims with a top layer.  This can be anything, I choose a lightweight neon cashmere sweater, but you could go with a light open cardigan, a colorful or patterned vest, or just about any other item you already have in the closet! Voila instant denim on denim for those of us a little more scared of the trend!  Happy Shopping!!

Chambray & Tweed

Similar Chambray here under $50! // Similar skirt here under $50

Wearing Chambray to the office can be tricky, especially in a conservative, business casual environment.  This look however is all business!  Pairing a very casual chambray with a tweed skirt dresses up the shirt instantly, for my office I would wear pumps and really push this into the acceptable category!

You could also try wearing the chambray under a sleeveless shift dress, or wearing chambray with a pencil skirt and topping it off with a cardigan so only a little peek of the chambray is out at the wrist and collar.   Happy Shopping!

Spring Gingham

Gingham is one of my favorite patterns, it is so easy to throw on and go and it always looks good! This top is extra awesome because its light weight, long, and very comfy!  This one is paired with white jeans to make it crisp, and a leopard clutch to add a little pattern mixing! Topping off the whole look is my very awesome, wear with everything TB Miller sandals in rose gold.  Happy Shopping!

Full Skirt & Sparkles

Today I want to discuss turning items you may not think about wearing to the work place - like this bright pink full skirt, into perfect business casual attire.  I am in love with this skirt, it has a perfect fit, a beautiful flare, and pockets!  To make this an office outfit, pair a a classic button down shirt - an instant "class it up" piece, add your work tote and a chunky necklace and off you go!  I've finished off this look with my sparkly sandals, and yes I would rock that look to the office, but a classic nude pump would look stunning with this look and put it over the edge for office wear!  Happy Shopping!

Linen Love

Insert heart eyes emoticon here!  This super light-weight, gorgeous color, full of detail top is definitely going to be on heavy rotation this Spring and Summer!  I love the french knot detail and the pretty fringe of tassels across the front.  I paired mine with super cute neutral sandals and a pop of pink in this cute clutch!  Happy Shopping!

Perfect Spring Neutrals

When you live in the Northeast the search for the "perfect Spring transition" sweater is ALWAYS a thing.  Imagine how excited I was when I walked into a Banana Republic and found this beauty!!  It is amazing! Linen, light and airy but still warm and snuggly with a perfect open weave.  It also comes in 4 other colors!!  I'm also needing to give a shout out to these amazing wedges I am so happy with them!
