Friday Favorite’s Weekly Round-Up #5

Friday Favorite’s Weekly Round-Up #5

Hello pretty ladies, May is here, which means graduations, Mother’s Day, and the Bridal season is fast approaching with Summer around the corner. Last weekend we celebrated Hayden & Tyler graduating from Weber State. We are proud of them and enjoyed spending time with family and friends all week.

 I hope you have been enjoying Friday round-ups, as it’s been fun for me to share everything and brain dump! Plus, let you know what’s happening and share ideas for upcoming events. This week I am sharing a couple of Mother’s Day Gift ideas, some beauty and fashion favorites I am loving right now and wearing on repeat, and some entertainment you might like.

If you like a more personal and closer connection and a “what you could have missed,” you might like my Newsletter. You can sign up for the Newsletter . I send it out every Sunday.

Last Friday’s round-up, I told you about some Gucci sandals I had been wanting and waiting for my size for over a year. They finally arrived, and I was so excited. (photo above) I shared them on Instagram. Even though this was a splurge, I permitted myself, and sometimes we must treat ourselves.

Jewelry 

I am a sucker for accessories and jewelry for use on the outfit. So here are some pieces I purchased this SSpringI am already wearing on repeat.

Evereve large turquoise and gold statement ring and this delicate turquoise and gold bracelet. I love that it mixes and matches all my gold jewelry, yet it also works with several turquoise pieces I own.

3 Ways To Style The Spanx Air Essential Dress.

3 Ways To Style The Spanx Air Essential Dress.

 

Hello Pretty ladies, 

I hope your week has been going well. Life seems to go by faster and faster as we age, wouldn’t you agree? We’re already halfway thru April! How does that happen? Today, I share 3 ways to style the Spanx Air essential Dress. 

This easy-to-wear buttery soft dress with pockets is easy to wear and style. With a mock neckline and a tank sleeve style, you’ll wear it all Spring and Summer. You can quickly wear this dress in many different ways, but today I am showing you three ways to style it for work wear, sporty chic, and for travel.

3 Ways To Style The Spanx Air Essential Dress.

Work Wear 

Spanx dress styled with the Spanx blazer.

The Spanx air essentials crew neck sweatshirt is over the shoulders for a fun detail. I chose the cognac color crew neck sweatshirt because it matched my Cecelia New York sandals and tied in with this vegan leather tote. 

Finish off the look with Gold Accessories. This is a great professional look for work, a Zoom meeting, or a Business lunch. 

This look is also comfortable to wear all day, yet removing the crew neck for a chic dress and blazer look could take you straight to a dinner date.

3 Ways To Style The Spanx Air Essential Dress.

Shop the Look Below:

 

Sporty Chic

Spanx dress paired with a denim jacket immediately takes it to a more casual look. But take it to sporty chic by adding a fun Ball cap, big silver hoop earrings, White leather sneakers with a bit of silver detail, and a dressed-up belt bag with silver chain detail.

This Sports chic look is great for traveling, sightseeing, sporting events, or grabbing coffee with friends.  

Again easy to wear, Easy to pack, and looks oh so put together. 

3 Ways To Style The Spanx Air Essential Dress.

Shop the look below:

 

 

 Travel Vacation mode

I made the Spanx dress look like a skirt, paired with the Spanx Air essential crew neck sweatshirt, a cute Gigi pip Straw sun hat, an Amazon Find Straw bag, and fun Dolce Vita sandals. The espadrille platform is a fun look. 

On a warmer day, you could easily swap out the crew neck sweatshirt for a button-up or oversized graphic tee. Or wear it with no layers. 

I think a denim shirt tied around the waist would be cute. 

A great alternative to wearing an extra layer is using it as an accessory on a warm day. This gives the layer a look without adding an entire layer. 

Fashion Tip:

Adding texture to an outfit with accessories helps create a well-put-together look without much effort.

Think of different fabric mixes, adding texture to a shoe or a bag. Finally, jewelry finishes off the look. 

3 Ways To Style The Spanx Air Essential Dress.

 

Shop to look below:

 

 

How Hairstyles help create a look

Another thing to consider is how you style your hair for each look. Choose a hairstyle that will compliment the outfit.

Higher necklines look great with hair pulled back to show off the neckline. A top knot is a cute look with a work/office look. Glasses on the head as a fashion statement pull hair away from the face to show the neckline. Looks business-like as well.

 

Spanx discount Code

I have a discount code for any Spanx purchase. If you are interested, use the:

Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 

Spring Trends are perfect for Easter at any age. 

Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 

Hello Pretty Ladies,

I hope your weekend was what you needed it to be. Ours was laid back, and I did get a lot of work done, which felt great. Today’s blog post is in conjunction with the Fashion Fix Tv segment I created for Good Things Utah today. Live at 10:00 am Mnt. Time. Stream it from anywhere by clicking HERE. 

 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

“Florals for spring are nothing new, here are a few Spring trends that are fresh and doesn’t evolve a large floral print.”

Trending Styles for Spring:

-The suit

-The trouser trend

-Eyelet 

-Wide-leg crop or wide leg

-Denim skirt med length and long

-Twist on a shirt dress

-The ribbed tank dress

-The Blazer

– Pj style pantsuit

Color trends:

Hot pink & Orange

Lilac

Sage green

Kelly green

Neutrals 

Cornflower Blue

Navy blue

Details:

Bows, small or large

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.

Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 

 

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.

 

Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 

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.

Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age.

Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 
Mannequin 2
Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 
Mannequin 3
Spring Trends Perfect for Easter At Any Age. 
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,

|For your Entertainment|

I am finishing up the 3rd book, “The Southern side of Paradise,” In the Peachtree bluff series, and loving it. I highly recommend any of Kristy Harvey Woodson’s novels if you haven’t read them. She writes so detailedly, with fun characters you can relate to.

 Binge-Worthy shows

If you want a couple of binge-worthy shows, I just finished Genny & Georgia on Netflix Crazy, what kids are going through and what a mom will do for her kids. If you like a murder mystery and suspense, YOU Is a pretty crazy show with twists and turns. In the 1st & the 4th season, we’re the best. Unfortunately, 2nd and the 3rd felt a little like serial killers!

If you love fashion and haven’t seen Mrs. Harris goes to Paris♥️ It’s a must! About a maid who sets her eyes on A Dior gown and saves and saves on purchasing a custom-made Dior gown at the house of Dior in the 1950s.

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.

"</p

Two Spring Basics You’ll Never Get Tired Of

Two Spring Basics You’ll Never Get Tired Of
Two Spring Basics You’ll Never Get Tired Of
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!

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. 

Friday Catch Up, A Weekly Recap!

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.

Dresses on my mind

With spring on everyone’s mind, Dresses seemed to be what you’re looking for. Here’s the one from Petal & Pup I just received. Save 20% DV20 for 20% off. This one is darling for Easter if you’re not a tiered or ruffle fan. This is the dress I have in mind for Hayden’s Graduation from Petal & Pup.

With spring on everyone’s mind, Dresses seemed to be what you’re looking for. So here’s the one from Free people I’ve been wearing on repeat. This one is darling for Easter; this dress is perfect if you’re not a tiered or ruffle fan.

What I am actually wearing this Spring…. Living in What I am actually wearing this Spring…. Living in Utah as a over 50 Wife, Mom, COCO and content Creator💋

Utah Weather in the Spring 🌱
Calls for layers….

Spring weather here can be “Schizophrenic” from a blizzard  To sunny and 60 in a day!

Although we’ve had an unusually strange winter this year, Spring still calls for layers.

Bundling up for the morning, and being able to take pieces off throughout the day, makes a great tip for Utah Springs.

I like classic pieces, in light colors and weights, yet work when layered to keep you warm.

Pieces you can mix and match, great wardrobe builders and add some texture.

- lighter weight & color long Wool coat , looks chic over shoulders, yet not to hot when on (I have a rain coat too) 

-Classic trousers are still trending and a great option to look more polished, shades of cream, tan and camel are great for Spring (works well with pastels too)

- Light weight, thinner ribbed mock neck turtleneck. I love the feel and fit of these. Affordable too.

- Vest are a great Spring layer, and the large Plaid/check in neutral shades keeps in classic and add interest. Yet, light enough for spring for layering and not sweat to death 😂
(I love linen vests too) 

- Adding texture with a fluffy & light fur on one shoulder (well still be seeing fur details for Spring)  Draped on one shoulder does add heat, like wearing around your neck does.

- Classic jewelry in gold & silver mix… and yes, I layered and stacked it on… classic pieces & yet layered gives your look a little edge. 

- Western suede pointed toe booties, elongate the leg, add more texture and keep your feet warmer but not too warm. 

Do you need layers in the Spring where you live?

❤️Follow for more Spring layer Outfits…. I have several style, color and on trend. While classic looks coming your way….
