Crisp Whites & Denim Blues

Summer is right around the corner and nothing beats a crisp white button down look on a beautiful day! This one in particular is giving me all the vibes!! I love the extended layer hem and smart collar detailing! The top provides light stretch so it’s perfectly feminine, and will fit like a glove.

I decided to pair this look with ruffle hem cropped jeans in a classic denim shade of blue. I just love how classic denim looks with white, it makes it pop! For accessories I am wearing wedge espadrilles, these gorgeous turquoise hoop tassel earrings, and carrying my favorite summer bamboo bag!

If you are looking for these accessories, the earrings are from Sugarfix by Baublebar, which is exclusively sold at Target! Best of all, these are only 12.99! The quality is amazing and the weight of the earring is not too heavy which I really appreciate. For the bag I am carrying, this is a dupe for a very expensive bag. I purchased mine from Amazon for just over $40 so if you are interested this bag, but want it at a quarter of the price of the original version, check out Amazon! And the wedge espadrilles are from last year but I still love them and they are perfect for summer so I have linked similar for you to shop!

Shein Shopping: The Perfect Color Block Dress for Spring

I absolutely love to get my hands on a great dress. There is something about it that gives you that “conquer-all” vibe. I am partial to purchasing “safe” neutral shades that transition, and can easily be re-styled, but ever so often, I find a piece that is bold, bright and I’ve just have to have it! That was this dress!

I selected this dress from Shein. Not only was the dress adorable, but the price was unbeatable! I just love how the mix of pastel shades blend together with the yellow back panel to create such a cute color block garment.

The details

With a back ¾ zip closure swing silhouette, and front pockets, this dress has it all. I especially love the length of the sleeves, and the neckline. It is perfect for adding a sparkling statement bib necklace, and dainty bracelet as accessories. I would recommend a short slip be worn with this dress as it is not lined, and the back panel is slightly see through.

My thoughts

I ordered this dress for $20.00 in a size medium, and would say it is a steal at that price! I believe the size small would also fit, but I decided to size up for the length as I am 5’8″. The construction and fabric quality is well produced, and the colors and shape of the garment online are true to what I received.

It only took about two weeks for me to get my order in from Shein and the garments were very well packaged. Each piece was placed in a separate zip bag and folded neatly.

If you are looking for a great spring dress to go to your next daytime wedding, birthday party, baby shower, or even to work, this must-have dress will fit the scene and get you noticed!

Must Have Spring Staple Kimono

I really love layering pieces for the spring time. Since the temperature fluctuates throughout the day, having stylish pieces you can easily add or take away from your ensemble is really important.

Kimonos are the perfect piece to really tie an outfit together, and add that extra layer. Offered in different prints, with variations of fringe, lace and crochet accents there is a kimono for everyone! Right now I am loving this floral and lace trimmed kimono I received from Armoire.Amore, a Texas based online boutique! I am wearing a size M which provides an oversized, flowy look, exactly what I was looking for!

As for the rest of my ensemble, I am wearing a Signature Studio 3/4 length sleeve dress which is a perfect foundation piece for the season! Since it is a warm, solid color with a relaxed silhouette it is easy to pair with statement jewelry, scarves, or in this case a colorful kimono on a cooler afternoon!

For accessories I decided on a neutral palette. This slouchy tote I found at Stage.com can hold all of my day to day necessities and more! I love that it goes with absolutely everything and the studded base adds a touch of glam. And to complete the look, the shoes I am wearing my favorite wedges but Indigo. Rd.
