Watch the Tv segment= link to Watch

I headed to my go-to shopping center, Station Park in Farmington, knowing I could find what I wanted to create the looks for this segment. Evereve, H&M, Old Navy, and Bohmn are where I headed this time.

Station Park has all your shopping needs, with a beautiful outdoor setting and something for everyone. Let’s not forget several restaurants so you can make a great outing.

Perfect for Easter

Whether you’re headed to Easter services, Brunch, the kid’s egg hunt, or dinner with family and friends, I’ve created some on-trend looks I think you’ll love and look great in at any age & stage in your life. You can wear these pieces all Spring and Summer to look and feel great. Watch the fun REEL I created

Laser cutouts

Cutouts

Studs

Braided

Quilted

Tiny ruffle detail -think trim

Pearls

-Added a slight floral touch for a fresh look without screaming “Floral for Spring.”

My Model’s looks:

Cammi-Cornflower Blue Eleni Maxi coverage dress with pretty little bow details. It is paired with a pop of floral on the Cecelia New York shoes. And finish off the look with an ivory custom coastal clutch. A perfect look for Easter services, Brunch, and would be darling for A bridal shower.

Swap out pieces for a more casual or youthful look:

This dress could be worn in many ways: pull off the shoulders for a less modest way, or add a bunch of turquoise jewelry and cowboy boots for a boho vibe. So cute for festival and concert season.

Kjirstin -Modeling the pantsuit trend in this season’s fresh color trend sage. The Blazer & the Pant was paired with a slightly floral detailed top in sage and pink. Finish the look with the Quilted accessories trend in the shoes and bag. The final finishing touch is Pearl accessories.

The pantsuit is a great alternative to a dress. A fresh and chic look for Spring

Swap out pieces for a more casual or youthful look:

Change up the look, A younger person could swap out the top for a cropped top, and swap out the accessories for simpler pieces. Think simple platform sandals and a belt bag.

Myself– Wearing the Neutral color trend with the Twist on a Shirtdress, a mocha-colored high-low button-up dress. It was paired with a cute Cream cargo cropped jacket and Studded detail neutral sandals. For a bit of Pop of color, a hot pink bag.

: Mannequin 2

: Mannequin 3

: Mannequin 4

Outfits on the Mannequins

1st Mannequin – Med length Denim Skirt, Eyelet top, and pretty bow detail heels. If you don’t love a denim skirt, pair it with Wide leg crops. Works for every age, as shown in the segment.

2nd Mannequin – Hot Pink and Orange – solid Ribbed Tank dress in Orange pairs with a solid Hot pink blazer, Accessorized with A darker orange braid bag for texture and a little pop. Hot Pink tassel earrings and finishing the look with a fun circle detailed, neutral sandal.

Change up for a more youthful look

This look could be worn at any age as well, but to look more youthful, you could add a denim jacket instead of a blazer, swap out sandals for tennis shoes or pass on a jacket and tie a denim shirt around the waist.

3rd Mannequin – A coastal look with a Navy striped ribbed sweater tank dress, Paired with a Navy blazer (Save 10% with code DARCY10) and accessorized with a Neutral Laser cutout bag and sandals. Finished off with a straw hat gives this look the perfect coastal vibe. Cutouts on bags and shoes are a great choice to wear the trend if you don’t feel comfortable wearing clothing with cutouts.

Change up The Look

-Here’s another look that could be worn at any age, but simply changing out a blazer for no jacket or a cargo or denim jacket and changing accessories to simple Converse tennis shoes and a belt bag, would create a more youthful look.

4th Mannequin -Pj Pant suit set, Oversized top & Pants. Easy, breezy, and Chic. Kelly Green is a hot color trend, and paired with black gives it a fun edge. Yet, still very Spring-like. Accessories help take this look from looking like pj’s to looking business chic. The black body suit keeps the eye clean and flattering. A lightweight wax-coated black jacket over the shoulders, gold bow detailed slides, and a black quilted bag with gold trim polish off the look.

Change up the look

Here you could opt to not were the button-up and only wear the bodysuit with the pants, and forgo any jacket. This look would also be just with a denim jacket and a simple sandal or Converse or Ked-type tennis shoe. Swap out a quilted bag for a crossbody bag.

I hope I inspired you to try something a little new to you this Spring. Thank you for taking the time to stop by and read “Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age.”

Have a beautiful day, pretty ladies,

Two Spring Basics You’ll Never Get Tired Of

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Happy last week of March, can you believe how fast March flew by? I keep telling myself Spring is coming; it is! In the Spirit of Spring, I have a couple of spring photoshoots. I’m looking forward to some fun pieces I can’t wait to wear. With all the great sales lately, I’ve grabbed some fun clothing & accessories I am also excited to share with you.

Here are two great Spring basics wardrobe pieces. You’ll never get tired of styling, and the best part is that they work in every season.

Two Spring Basics You’ll Never Get Tired Of

Spring Wardrobe Builders

~Two Spring Basics You’ll Never Get Tired Of Wearing~

~ Straight Leg/ slim boot cut Jeans

~ Gauze Button up

The Jeans are under $69, And the top is under $36

What are wardrobe builders?

Wardrobe builders are staple/ key pieces you purchase that help you build your wardrobe. I like to make a wardrobe, starting with classic pieces that can help you create many different looks. Then, build a cabinet with 80% good fitting, good quality pieces and fill in with the trends. I wrote more about this HERE.

Ways to Wear these two pieces

The White Gauze button-up top

This gauze button-up is just like the Free people one I own♥️ you can’t tell them apart✔️Wear over a bathing suit, with shorts, or throw over a tank tee dress. 🖤 The many ways you can style this versatile piece genuinely are endless.

I own several white Gauze button-ups, one because I always need one, as I wear them on repeat. And two, I wanted to see if you could tell the difference between the Target $25, Peppered in Leopard$36, and Free People $69 versions. Unfortunately, you really couldn’t unless close up and with touching.

The comparison

The Target button-up is the thinnest but not too light, and the stitching isn’t the quality of the Free People, which is to be expected. The Peppered in Leopard button-up is a perfect dupe. The buttons are different, the stitching is good, and the weight is pretty close. I recommend purchasing it for the price if you want to save money. The Free People’s quality is the best, with excellent stitching, buttons, and gauze fabric, just the perfect weight.

Free People added this Spliced -up Shirtdress Tunic to this year’s Spring lineup, and the fabric is the same Gauze as the button-up. Talk about a cute dress you’ll wear over and over. Cute for concerts and festivals with boots, and so cute for Summer with a cute sandal.

The Straight Leg slim bootcut Jeans

Straight Leg jeans have been a classic style since jeans wear invented. They will always be in style. It’s a classic fit that always looks good. In fashion, styles come and go, but the classic fit never goes far. The type I am wearing above says a slim-fitting flair, but it does fit like straight-leg jeans.

Ladies…Get your butt into this pair. You won’t be sorry! Judy Blue High Waist Control Top raw hem slim bootcut jeans are slim fitting through the waist, hip, and butt with a slim-fitting flared leg. Made of stretchy denim, it will fit you just right without stretching out too much. The control top helps keep your waist slim, and the wash is GORGEOUS, making these a must-have!

The Jeans Fit

Rise 10 3/4″, Inseam: 32″
Recommend sizing down one size for that fitted look.

Two Basic Wardrobe pieces giving Coastal Grandmother vibes

*Coastal grandmother is a VIBE, not a grandmother thing☺️Want to learn more? Want to learn more? Here’s a fun Coastal Grandmother blog post I did last year that people enjoyed reading. Here’s a REEL you might enjoy, with 1.6 million views.

Giving me all the #coastalgrandma vibes… Think of all the ways you can style these two great basics✔️

A few other classic Jeans and White button-ups you might like:

BB Dakota by Steve Madden -Gauze button up a complete match for the Free People Button up

Tyra Cotton Oversized Button-Down Shirt-Get down to the business of statement style in this cotton button-down that makes a fashionable problem of rolling up your sleeves.

Stevie Straight Leg -These jeans are crafted in soft, stretchy denim, making them accessible and comfortable to wear all day. This simple but essential pair can complete any look they are paired with.

Christine High Rise Straight Leg– from cotton with a little bit of stretch, these high-waisted jeans with a straight leg will soon be your comfy favorites.

Friday Catch Up, A Weekly Recap!

Hello Pretty ladies,

Happy Friday, sharing a little weekly recap with “Friday Catch Up.” Are you ready for the weekend? I look forward to a girl’s day with my girlfriend and Saturday celebrating our son’s birthday. On a different note, the weather in Utah seems like we’re living in a snow globe that someone keeps shaking, which makes it hard to get into Spring mode. However, I am trying and have purchased some cute pieces I am excited to share with you next week. I enjoyed sharing some great Spring basics and a little of what I’ve been wearing lately.

In case you missed It

Blazers are all the rage and can be styled in many ways for every season. Here’s a look I’ve been loving. French style is always chic and on-trend, and when better than in the spring? Here’s a fun Gibsonlook Blazer look with a french inspiration I created you could copy. Use code DARCY10 to save 10%. In case you missed it, I made a Reel recap of what I’ve been wearing.

I do two monthly Lives on Instagram on the first Monday and the 3rd. Here’s last Monday.

You know I love good organization, and this is a fun REEL I shared how I organize some of my hats.

3 Everyday Looks You Can Wear On Vacation

Hello Pretty Ladies,

How did the start of daylight savings go for you? We’re up early. Today was no different, and it was snowing yet again. With that said, we decided to stay home and chill. By chill, I mean I stayed in pj’s, did a facial, read scriptures, and had a slow morning.

I did get the laundry done, Ben shoveled snow, and we made a big Asian dinner. I worked on social media, my Liketoknowit, and my blog. So, we had a productive day, even though it was quiet at home.

It was nice not having to get ready and having a relatively relaxing day. I leave for St George on Wednesday to meet my mom for Vintage Market days, Zion, and a little girl time. It’s been a couple of months since I’ve seen her, and I look forward to spending time with her.

Spring is coming

With the first day of Spring coming in a couple of days, and Spring break coming up fast, I thought I would share some great basics from Chico’s. Easy to pack, wear traveling, and mix and match all Spring and Summer.

Chico’s Wardrobe Builders

They take you from Saturday style to Vacation mode with Chico’s New Spring line. Their classic button-up in linen is perfect; you’ll wear it on repeat in white. Great over a bathing suit, paired with jeans, shorts, or worn over a tee shirt dress. It also comes in a stripe and several other colors. Girlfriend cropped jeans are a flattering jean style, similar to the boyfriend jeans with being as baggy.

A big Spring trend is the color combo Navy and kelly green. You’ll see these colors paired together in print and solids and mixing it up. See how I styled this trend in a couple of ways below. First, I paired some great essential pieces with trendy pieces to create a look you can wear at any age.

White Button up | Girlfriend Jeans| Tennis shoes| Bag

Classic Wardrobe outfit

Every day or Saturday style is built with classic wardrobe builders with the New girlfriend cropped denim. It fits slimmer than a boyfriend s jeans yet is not a straight cut. Very flattering on every figure and has a cute little cuff. It was perfectly paired with Chico’s white shirt button-up and darling leather tennis shoes. Finish the look with a chain-detailed crossbody bag for a little updated edge.

Shop The Look:

Stripped Top| Joggers| Linen Slides

Easy Travel Outfit

Trending colors this Spring Kelly green and blue make a great color combo. I paired this color combo for a vacation look and a resort wear outfit. I hope you love the results. Kelly green jeggings and a navy and white striped linen button-up make for a comfortable travel look.

Shop The Look:

Resort wear or Poolside Outfit

Are you headed on a warm-weather vacation? These printed Ikat cropped pants pulled over a swimsuit (used as a body suit here) gave a seamless look, and paired with this two-toned denim jacket, the straw bag makes it easy to take from the pool to lunch.

Shop The Look:

Chico’s 40th Anniversary

Chico’s is celebrating 40 years of fashion with its own curated collection I shared below:

Hello pretty ladies. Spring is almost here, which means Summer is around the corner! This means Spending more time outdoors, and Beach & Lake Vacations are fast approaching. I love nothing more than spending time in the water. Whether poolside or beachside. Cabana Life resort wear is perfect for the whole family. Clothing that protects you, Spf 50, and UV ray protection.

Cabana Life Clothing

I love that Cabana Life clothing can take you from the beach to lunch. It’s fashionable and practical. Every piece travels well, along with not taking up much space.

I love that every collection has a matching swimsuit, making packing easier. I took several pieces to Palm Beach, Florida, which helped me easily pack and organize my outfits—being able to mix and match some of the collections as well. Like in this outfit below: From the Jetties Beach & Nantucket Collection. The colors work together even though the patterns are different. It makes for a fun combination.

Don’t be afraid to mix and match patterns if the colors are the same. It works out great.

Shop the Photo:

The terry cloth tunics have long been one of my favorite pieces from Cabana Life. I love how you can wear it as a bathing suit cover-up and a dress…. But it’s even cute, worn as a tunic paired with linen pants. A very versatile piece that takes you from the pool to the street.

Fashion tip:

It’s always a good rule of thumb to think of 3 ways to wear a piece of clothing before purchasing it!

I am wearing the Naples collection Rufftops Maxi skirt and triangle bikini top💙 The Maxi Skirts are fantastic with a white linen button-up and Cabana Life’s Accessories. Perfect for a lunch date or pull-on over a swimsuit. You can’t go wrong with this Skirt and a denim jacket on a fantastic night; it takes it from day to evening. The colors in this collection are the prettiest shade of blue.

What to Wear and Do on A Girl’s Trip

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Are you as happy to see the weekend as I am? Today, I am joining my friend, Dawn, with Party Til Dawn with a blog and Instagram share. Recapping our girlfriend’s “work and play” girl’s trip. We had the pleasure of combining work and play for a fun Girl’s weekend. Shopping, Hair, nails or a spa day, wine tasting, watching a movie, and dining are always delightful on a girl’s trip in Kirkland, Washington.

What to Wear and Do on a Girl’s Trip to Seattle (a suburb of Seattle) Kirkland, Washington.

Shop my Travel look below:

A little look back at my girl’s weekend with Dawn. We stayed at the beautiful Heathman Hotel in Kirkland, WA. Located just a block from Lake Washington and surrounded by great restaurants and shopping, it is a must-stay when you visit! You are also just minutes away from Shop Totem Lake. The Heathman has a beautiful lobby to cozy up next to the fire with a cup of coffee to start your day. And an excellent onsite restaurant and bar where we shared appetizers and drinks after a long work day.

Shop Totem Lake in Washington is the sister shopping center to Utah’s Station Park, which Dawn and I work with regularly on content creation. Dawn features Totem lake often, and I feature Station Park. We have now had the pleasure of working with each other at our locations while combining work and Play with a girl’s trip.

Lunch with Sharleen at Joe’s Burger

A little sleeping in and enjoying a coffee with a view in my room, wearing Print Fresh PJ, of course. (You know these are some of my go-to pj’s) The Heathman has in-room coffee, tea, and comfy couches, and my room had a pretty view overlooking the cute shops across the street.

Print fresh Pj’s perfect for sleep and lounging on a Sunday morning. With all the fun prints and stylish sets, Printfresh pj’s are my go-to pj’s for Travel.

Shop the pj’s below:

A Walk & Breakfast at Kirkland bakery right across from the Hotel, and of so good we had to stop by multiple times.

This bakery and coffee house had the best croissants (like I was in Paris, and I am not joking). So good I took a box home for the guys. Everything we tried, we loved. Isn’t that one of your favorite things to do while traveling? Trying out and tasting the foods.

WOODINVILLE WINE COUNTRY

Yes, Seattle has a wine culture; who knew? Dawn and I met one of Dawn’s followers, Karin, for this fun experience. (now Karin and I follow each other and chat via dm daily) Another fun part of our job is building relationships that turn into friendships. We had a fun day experiencing three different wineries, tasting three wines per winery owned and created by women.

Dinner at Sparrow with Krista & Julie

Krista & Julie are fellow Bloggers/Instagrammers living in Kirkland and Dawn’s good friends. We also have built a friendship on Instagram. One of the best parts of traveling is connecting with those you’ve made friendships with online.

Monday – Pike Place Market shopping and Lunch

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines Party

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and there is something so fun about celebrating the friendships in your life by having a Galentine’s party. So today I am sharing 5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines Party. With items to decorate from Walmart that are so festive and affordable. Along with a couple of outfits, ideas I think you’ll love.

What is Galentine’s Day

Galentine’s Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated on February 13th. The holiday was made popular by the TV series Parks and Recreation and celebrated female friendships and relationships, especially if you don’t have a significant other. Galentine’s Day involves women honoring the important ladies in their lives through gift exchanges, dinners, gatherings, spa days, and more. It’s a great time to show appreciation for the strong bonds between women!

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines:

1. Set the Scene: Decorations, snacks, and atmosphere are essential (see my picks above)

2. Pick Your Guests: Invite your best gals for a night of laughter, stories, and fun.

3. Plan an Activity: Whether you watch a movie together or play a game, choose something everyone will enjoy!

A Year of Cabana Life Resort Wear

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Are you headed on Vacation? Sharing today A Year of Cabana Life Resort Wear. Resort wear with Cabana life SPF 50 clothing for the whole family, perfect if you’re headed somewhere warm🌴✨ In 2023, I know I have planned a couple of vacations. If you follow me, you know I love to travel and am always looking for an adventure.

I am sharing a year recap of Vacation resort wear🌴🌸 The piece I love traveled so well, looked great, and you could wear it from the pool to lunch or shopping! I was lucky to have traveled a ton in 2022 from Florida, California, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Wyoming, Nevada, Seattle, and several weekend getaways. Cabana Life clothing came with me on every trip.

Protection from the sun without having to apply harmful sunscreens is essential, as I have dealt with skin cancer.

I love that most of the pieces can be transitioned to other seasons and dressed up or down! Check out my Travel recaps for more on every 2022 travel destination. Not only do I share how I styled each piece and what I loved about it for that trip, I give you some great travel tips and must-visit places to eat and see.
