Three little black dresses: by Jude Connally

Hello Pretty Lady,

“Your talent determines what you can do. Your motivation determines how much you’re willing to do. Attitude determines how well you do it.” —

“Do what you love, and you’ll never work a day!”

I am lucky to be doing what I love, and I have you, pretty ladies, to thank for that! Thank you for being here and supporting my small business. Whether with a like♥️ on social media, a comment, a DM, shopping a link, watching my stories, or reading a blog post, each helps me do what I love and share with you. I appreciate you.

Living stylishly and looking good at any age is a passion of mine. I love helping you to do the same! With the Holidays approaching, I thought I’d get a jump start and start sharing Holiday looks with you. Just in case you needed a little Holiday outfit inspiration for the upcoming party season,

Today, I am sharing Jude Connally, a newer brand to me. Let me tell you, I am in love with the quality, fit, and darling styles. I even have a 15% off code to share with you. Use JDARCY to save 15% off your purchase.

“At Jude Connally, they believe in making women feel good and look great. Their clothes are designed to fit and flatter every body type, with vibrant colors and prints that express your personality. Jude Connally is more than a clothing brand; it’s a lifestyle.”

Here are my picks for the perfect three little black dresses for you to look fabulous this party season.

Party season, the Holidays, cocktail parties, winter weddings, the theater, or even a cruise. These three little black dresses will have you looking and feeling great.

Ella Dress

#1. Ella dress stretch velvet with rhinestone details – I am in a small, head over heels for this short-sleeved- tee- shirt-inspired dress! With an easy fit, the Ella dress in velvet will be your new go-to this season. Featuring chic studded detailing on the front. Whether dressed up or down, it flawlessly combines timeless charm with modern chic.

Paired with a classic black pump, mine are Sam Edelmann, a simple and affordable clutch by Quilted Koala. You could do black for a classic and simple look or choose metallic silver for a fun, festive pop. Save 20% with code DARCY20. The jewelry is kept simple, as the rhinestones on the dress are enough sparkle—one simple rhinestone bracelet and a great simple rhinestone drop earring or even a large stud. Mine are vintage drop earrings.

Hair Tip: When you’re styling an outfit versus just wearing it, you consider what hairstyle works with the dress and flatters you and your outfit. Here, the updo works and allows the dress to shine. Sometimes, when a dress is busy, wearing hair down adds to the busyness

Franca Dress

#2. Franca Dress– Jude Ponte with feather-trimmed sleeves fits tts in and makes a statement this season with our stunning new shift dress, Franca! Featuring 3/4 sleeves with eye-catching feathered cuffs and a classic crew neckline, this chic dress combines timeless elegance with a playful twist. A must-have for your wardrobe!

Finishing this look off with a pop of color, fushia tweed shoes by Madison Masion and a velvet tulip bag by Cecelia New York

Hairstyle tip: With the simple neckline of this dress, you really can wear your hair in several ways: down and full, straight and sleek, half up, or even in a low side knot or pony. It does depend if you add an earring you want to show off as well; with this dress, you could wear a statement earring and pull your hair away from your face. (I will be doing just that as soon as I find the fushia statement earring I WANT)

Shop the look: Dress| Shoes| Bag

: Party Season Style

Maureen Dress

#3. Maureen Dress—Jude Ponte has a Halter neck and Bow detail

Step into the spotlight with our new super chic dress, Maureen! Featuring an elegant high neckline with an adjustable bow tie for added sophistication. This stunning style is a must-have for all your holiday parties, offering a perfect blend of modern elegance and festive charm! It fits true to size, and I am the size small.

I finished off the look with a pair of rock-studded Valentino pumps, which make a small statement but don’t overpower the bow detail of the dress. I took the gold stud from the shoes as inspiration for the jewelry and wore black and gold bold jewelry from Julie Vos. This perfectly finishes off the outfit.

Tip: Another important detail when styling a halter-style dress is to let the halter, and in this case, the bow detail, be the star. Wear your hair back off your shoulders, either in a chic ponytail, bun, or top knot.

12 Thanksgiving Outfit Inspirations

Hello Pretty Ladies,

I can’t believe we are in October’s last couple of days, and Halloween is tomorrow! How did that happen? This also means that Thanksgiving will be here before we know it, which inspired today’s blog post. 12 Thanksgiving outfit inspirations to inspire you, whether you are cooking all day and like to be cozy and comfortable, entertaining a small gathering and casual but a little elevated, or your family tradition is to get dressed up. Maybe you are somewhere in between. I have created some cute outfits that will fit all of the above.

Suzanne, Dawn, Cindy, and Stephanie, who is new to our new group, are joining me today on our monthly blog hop. Each lady will feature something related to Thanksgiving, such as a recipe, table setting, or outfit inspiration. You’ll want to ensure you head to their blogs and see what they share. I am excited to see what they share, as I know it will be fabulous, as always. I’ve linked their blogs at the end of this post. I know they would love for you also to leave a comment to show you stopped by.

Thanksgiving outfits, I am sure, will inspire you

12 Thanksgiving Outfit Inspirations from Cozy, elevated casual to dressed up. No matter how you like to spend your Thanksgiving day, I have an outfit inspiration I think you’ll love.

I posted a poll on Instagram asking what style you wore on Thanksgiving, and it was a tie for Cozy outfits and elevated casual for the most requested outfit inspirations. This didn’t surprise me, as we have become such a casual society. I know so many cook all day, have football games or head outside to play a family ball game.

I cook all day for our family, including family and friends. Please give me a good reason to get dressed up. Having a pretty table and using my china make me feel I need to dress the part. That said, I tend to dress up a little, even if it’s just a sweater and trousers or a silk blouse and trousers, which can still be comfortable. Last year, I did wear a dress. I had so many pretty clothes for the season, and it was a shame not to wear them.

Cozy Outfit inspirations

Below, you’ll find four great options for being cozy and comfortable while still looking put-together and chic. These looks are affordable and can be mixed with other items in your closet to mix and match all season long. A couple of these looks are also great for Holiday travel, as that always seems to be something people need inspo for.

I can even picture a few of these outfit looks outside playing flag football with the family!

I was styling this viral Amazon comfy, cozy, soft, oversized hoodie and baggie jogger set. Perfect for FALL, it comes in sizes Xsm to 2xl. Easy to Elevate this set with a few easy tips to look chic and comfy. Great for travel as well. I styled it on Instagram with a Coat View here.

Elevated Casual Outfit Inspirations

Fall outfit inspo

Here is one of my favorite elevated casual outfits featuring pieces you can use for work wear! I find myself grabbing these pieces weekly.

My favorite go-to jeans of the season are Risen jeans. They fit and feel like premium denim at a fraction of the cost. They are under $70 and fit true to size. I am in a 27 for reference.

The mixed plaid blazer in shades of fall has been a favorite go-to for a couple of seasons now. Unfortunately, it’s unavailable, but I linked this year’s version with the same vibe, fit, and colors. It fits true to size. I got a medium so I could layer sweaters under it.

Cable sweater Turtleneck sweater by Banana Republic factory. It’s so soft, fits true to size, and is the perfect shade of camel that works with so many fall outfits. Mine is a couple of seasons old; I linked you a great option with the same vibe here.

Leopard accessories are a great way to add interest and a pop of pattern to an outfit to make it interesting. My go to Belt and these large buckle leopard kitten heals are so good, I can’t stop wearing.

Chloe tote in perfect shades of black, tan, and cream.

#9 Leopard Skirt outfit

It is a great way to wear a leopard skirt dressed up for the Holidays. I wore this look to church last week, as I love dressing up for church; it allows me to be creative and use pieces in my wardrobe that I love to wear yet don’t have a lot of places to wear. This Amazon finds leopard skirt fits true to size, Paired with a Black Pumiey bodysuit that also fits true to size; I love how a bodysuit is fitted and doesn’t add bulk, especially with a flowy skirt with an elastic band. Another styling must be done when wearing a bottom with an elastic band, and you must make sure you add a belt. Here, I added a wide chocolate brown belt with studs to cover the band, flatter the waist, and add interest.

A Chocolate faux leather jacket, which fits true to size, is a great “third” piece for any wardrobe. A third piece is that layering piece that adds interest and layers to an outfit, taking it from drab to fab. It’s a great tip to finish off any outfit. Here is the same Moto jacket in chocolate suede by Chicos.

Accessories

Great styling, but it comes down to adding interest with accessories. I’ve said it before, and I’ll repeat it: accessories finish the outfit and add interest to your style. I purchased these vintage suede Mary Jane heels with stud details over 25 years ago. I fell in love with them, and I adore them now. Mary Janes is having a big moment this year, which is one reason I tell my clients to save certain items, especially if they love them. Some older or Vintage pieces in your wardrobe keep your style from looking like everyone else. It adds character to your outfit, especially if you can bring pieces out that might be on trend again; yours will be that unique piece that stands out just a little bit more. Here is a similar pair of Mary Jane heels.

Speaking of vintage, I pulled out another piece from my archive, this great multi-chain statement bib necklace I purchased 15 or 17 years ago from Bauble Bar. It’s technically not vintage yet (something needs to be 20 years old to be labeled vintage.) This outfit would have looked great with this Julie Vos chunky chain necklace. I also love this multichain statement necklace, which made a big statement and made the outfit fabulous. Need a multichain statement necklace? I found this one HERE to finish off your look.

Julie Vos’s earrings and a ring complete the look. Shop the earrings, bracelets, and rings.

10 Favorite Things I Am Loving

Hello, pretty ladies,

I hope your July was a good one. I feel like I just asked you about June! These summer months seem to fly by.

Our oldest son is getting married on August 24th, and I know it will be here so fast. As we’re getting closer, I’ve been emotional several times. Maybe this will help me have my emotions under control by the wedding week.

I haven’t done a Favorite Things wrap-up in a while, where I share what I have been loving and wearing or using on repeat. I thought sharing for our monthly blog hop with Dawn, Cindy, and Suzanne today would be fun. They’ll be sharing their July Best Sellers, favorites for summer, or things they love. Their blogs are linked below, so head over to them and see what they shared today.

—Things I am loving lately—

I could say “Favorite Things,” but my True favorite things aren’t “things”… It’s family, & friends, entertaining/hosting, making a home a home-cooking, gardening and traveling, and wandering boutiques, bookstores, and antique stores.

So, with that said …. Things I am loving lately will do! Ox

10 Favorite Things

Fashion

They stay put, don’t roll, and are genuinely seamless—no panty lines, no matter what you wear! I give these as gifts to my girlfriends who like things, and they adore them and always purchase more!

Oversized Cuffed Jeans– I am completely obsessed and have several pairs in various washes, brands, and price points. I’ve always loved a cuffed boyfriend’s jeans and even a straight leg. (to be honest, I’ve been wearing for years, and it’s always been a great way to wear jeans that might be just a hair too short because of my height. I could cuff them and make them look right. It always felt a little French-inspired. You can get wide-leg, patch-pocket, and straight-leg denim in various washes and price points. Let me tell you, I am in love with them all. I am sharing below all the styles I’ve been wearing on repeat for the last couple of months, and I even have this Risen pair in a lighter wash arriving tomorrow.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Try-on Haul 2024

Hello Pretty ladies,

Yesterday, I headed to Nordstrom to try on the items I loved and had on my wish list in-store. I wanted to give you outfit inspirations and details on how the Items fit and what they looked like. Please view my full try-on here and save my highlights Here.

This sale has received extensive coverage; it is a great time to get deep discounts. However, this doesn’t mean you must go crazy and purchase just because it’s on sale. Be intentional with your purchases and inventory, as well as your needs and wishes.

Things I look for during the sale… Besides the six things I purchase every year, View HERE!

A few essential items to consider are Investment pieces, Cashmere, designer, Quality coats, bags, or sunglasses (Crewneck Cashmere Sweater), Shoes, and Premium denim. I look for brands that don’t often go on sale and take advantage of the opportunity to grab a few essential items I’ve been wanting. Which one is always a Free People sweater? I love the quality and fit, and they always have the style I love.

The NSALE is always a great time to grab denim. Everyone should own at least one pair of premium denim for their wardrobe, and the NSALE is a great place to grab a pair on sale. Take note that Nordstrom’s sale also features several designer brands, or, I like to say, “Splurges.” This is a great time to score a key piece or two at discounted prices.

I hope you enjoy seeing some of the pieces I own and a peek at my wish list, I am swooning over them. Perfect pieces to add to your Summer wardrobe, transition into Fall, and pieces you’ll live in all Winter! This Sale is the best price of the Year and makes for a great time to stock up.

Things to Know about the Sale

Link to apply for Nordstrom card HERE

If you want to score early access, apply for a Nordstrom credit card ASAP. The retailer offers two types of cards, a retail credit card and a Visa credit card, which provide the same benefits and are eligible for early access to the Anniversary Sale. While your cardmember status depends on yearly spending amounts (shared below), all cardmembers automatically start at Influencer status, which means you’ll get an extra four days to shop the Sale before it opens to everyone.

Insider tips

Early access for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale begins tomorrow for Cardholders, and even I can’t stop until the 11th! The bummer is that things start selling quickly, so I have some tips!

Shop online! This is where you will find the most extensive selection!

Add to Wishlist! If you see something you love, add it to your wishlist, so the day you’re able to shop, you can immediately “add to cart”!

Add a different size! If the size you are looking for sells out in your size, add a different size to your shopping bag and check back often as things get returned and stocked! I’ve even had luck exchanging after the sale for the correct size and color.

Expedite Shipping! For $20, this bumps your order and gives you a better chance to get what you want!

How I am Breaking Down the Sale:

What I will be sharing from the Nordstrom sale is broken down. I feel breaking the Sale down and scaling it into categories is essential. Hopefully, you will find this method easier and won’t feel overwhelmed. Please note that I go through every sale item and think about what a great deal is and what closet staples are great to add without going overboard. I also choose items that are hard to find on Sale, so shopping for them now may be your only chance to get them on Sale. Follow my Shop. LTK HERE, as I’ve created a few Nordstrom Boards to simplify shopping.

June’s 12 Best Sellers

Hello Pretty Ladies,

June is officially over, and man, was it a blur. From a vacation in Colorado, throwing a large bridal shower, and entertaining family in town, the actual start of summer, which is when you can start to work in your yard in Utah, we finish our deck remodel, Save a kitten, off the highway, Shes doing excellent by the way. Then, I head out of town for a weekend with my hubby in Park City. I feel like I lost a month of Summer.

Why is it winter is eight months long, and Summer flies by? July is another month that becomes a blur. July 4 is so fast, and all the Crazy sales start for Back to School and Fall! The Nordstrom sale Starts July 9, Walmart the 8th-11th, Target July 7th-13th, and Amazon Prime July 16-17th. Will you be shopping the Big 4 sales? If so, I would love to know what you are shopping for and if you want me to showcase anything special. Comment below if you have any questions for me.

About the July Sales

I’ll share the six items I purchase yearly from Nordstrom and my picks on Amazon Prime sale, my favorite pick from each, what I believe is too good of a sale not to grab, and some gift ideas.

As for the Nordstrom sale, I will do an in-store try-on; you loved the one I did last year, as I know it helps you see how they fit. Here is last year’s Try-on. I have already noticed that several of my BEST SELLERS from previous years are on sale again this year, and if you plan on grabbing a sale item or two, you might want to add them to your wish list to have them ready when you can shop. If you’re interested in shopping for sales, sign up for my post alerts on ShopLTK. This will help you see the posts first. You can do that HERE.

Please remember that I am sharing things that caught my eye, which are great and will help you build your wardrobe. But by no means don’t feel like you have to shop just because they’re on sale. I always say it’s only a good deal if you wear and style it in multiple ways.

Friday’s Favorites and Weekend Sale Round Up!

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Another week is flying by, and it’s hard to believe it’s the last few days of June. Ben and I are headed out of town for some stay-cation in Park City. He booked it forever ago, and he’s looking forward to a bit of downtime. If we stay home, he continues to work at our or someone else’s home, so he likes to book several local weekend trips a year.

Let’s catch up

July is a busy month, with all the BIG sales, the Nordstrom sale, Amazon Prime days, and Walmart & Target having to get into the game. I’ll be covering my favorite picks and things I have purchased, but I would love to know if there is something you want me to cover or review. Comment below with your questions and what sales you’re looking forward to. It’s great to start creating your wish lists now. here are a couple of favorite THINGS I recommend Purchashing if you don’t have Spanx| Free People Sweater| Pillow Talk| New Balance 327|

I look forward to a July girlfriends/work trip with some of my favorite Midlife blogger friends. Mixing work and play is always a good time. Do you have any guesses as to whom I will be meeting?

July also means we’re in countdown mode for our son’s wedding. August 24th is going to come up fast. My dress arrived yesterday and fit perfectly, so that is a check off my list. I need to start working on the welcome boxes, and I still have some details to finish up for the rehearsal party.

2 Over 40 Outfit Inspirations

4th of July Outfit Inspirations: Over 40

4th of July Outfit Inspirations:

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Today, I am sharing the 4th of July Outfit Inspirations: Over 40. These outfits range from easy outfits you can create from your closet, using the traditional color theme of red, white, and blue, to a couple of kitschy looks with stars and flags.

I am sharing easy, peezy outfits that say the 4th of July without having a flag or stars to say the 4th of July. You can grab your Red, white, and blue pieces out of your wardrobe all summer, and pairing them together creates a Holiday look without having a 4th of July star or flag item. Stripes are one of my favorite things, and I love that you can mix a bold stripe and a small stripe to a solid and get a great vibe. Another trick to get a festive look without wearing a big Star or Flag is adding a mini star or flag print as a small detail on a scarf to tie on a bag or a simple accessory like an earring. This little detail adds that 4th of July touch to an outfit without screaming the 4th.

Today is our monthly blog hop, and it is always fun to see what my girlfriends Dawn, Suzanne, and Cindy are sharing on the monthly topic over on their blogs. The 4th of July is a week away, and that seems like an appropriate topic. Their blogs are linked at the end of this post.

Tips on shopping your closet:

To create the looks below from your closet, look for something you have similar, whether it’s the color or the style; something similar will still give out the same feel.

I did an Amazon haul at the beginning of Summer with great basics that happened to be in the color theme of the 4th of July. I chose these colors simply because they felt like summer to me, and then I realized I picked the perfect colors for the 4th of July, which is also a great Summer season color palette.

Shop the look HERE page below:

The Flag sweater is so cute, and I love it printed in this season’s hottest color: Cornflower blue. I’ve been crushing on this color, and when I saw it, I had to have it. The flag sweater reminds me of a preppy Ralph Loren polo and is a classic in my eyes. A flag also has a coastal vibe to it, making it perfect to wear all summer long. Shop the look HERE.

The Red Stripe Amazon maxi dress has been a repeat best-seller for me. Easy to wear all summer long. I paired the dress with a denim shirt around the waist, a caramel tote, and Tory Burch Miller sandals. Shop the look HERE.

Shop the Spanx denim shorts HERE, the Red and white stripe Spanx top HERE, and the Sandals HERE

I purchased this off-the-shoulder top from the Banana Republic factory (last year), which is linked to a similar Fits TTS; these best-selling wide cuff two button-front jeans are from Amazon for $39. These come in and out of stock. Because they sell so fast, and they fit true to size. Excellent quality for the price✔️Cashmere sweater fits tts. Tory Burch Miller is in red TTS, Lisi Lurch bracelets, and a Laudi Vindi custom bag, which is genuine leather. It is so beautiful, as are Amazon raffia ball earrings. SHOP the look HERE
