4 Summer Dresses From Amazon Any Age Could Wear

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Summer is finally here, and I have styled 4 Summer Dresses From Amazon Any Age Could Wear. Four affordable and easy-to-wear dresses you’ll wear all summer long. I don’t know about you, but I love a dress I can wear with just sandals or dress it up a bit with accessories. Summer is all about easy wear and effortless style.

Not only is it easy to style and easy to wear, a factor for summer, but so is a dress you can wear at any age. If you have been following me for a while, I don’t put an age on style. Style is truly what you feel good in. But, these four dresses from Amazon do work for any age. It’s all in how you style them.

Cream Tank 3 Tired Dress

A cream cami strap dress for $24.99 that hits at the knee, is a great basic dress any body type could wear along with any age. I love its almost linen feel, Hides a tummy if you have one and can be worn with or without a little jacket. I’ve styled it with my favorite sandals & bag this summer.

Shop The Look Below:

Lace and Cold Should Tee Shirt Dress

Everyone needs a new little black dress for $25.99 for the summer, and this tee shirt style, cold shoulder, and detailed lace dress is perfect. Another easy-to-wear fits all body types and ages. It hits right above the knee (reminder, I am 5’9 1/2), perfect to wear over a swimsuit or dress it up for a summer date night or lunch with the girls.

I’ve paired it with neutral accessories, a straw bag, and strap sandals, but you could easily pair it with a pop of color for a different Summer vibe.

Shop the photos Below:

Floral Printed Cold Shoulder Dress

Cold Shoulder Dress with tassel details, flowy ruffled sleeve detail also hits above the knee. A deal at $28.99, Easy fabric to wear, comes in several patterns and colors. It hits at the knee, hides a tummy if you have one, and can be easily styled for vacation or a casual summer day.

I styled this again with neutral accessories to give that beachy vibe. A handmade bamboo bag by Cult Gaia

( more affordable version here) or this cute straw bag, Cute gold chain detail clear & neutral slides $29 and straw neutral hoops.

Shop the Photo Below:

Strapless Dress with Ruffled Hem

Little black strapless dress $19.99. I love a good strapless dress. Strapless dresses are easy to throw on over a swimsuit, and you can quickly wear them from the pool to lunch. This dress is a touch see-thru, so I wore a little slip underneath; not necessary if you wear it for a swimsuit cover-up.

I’ve styled it to wear on a little afternoon date with my hubby—a denim jacket with pearl details for a little more dressed-up feel. I finished off the look with black quilted slides (old). I linked similar HERE. These pearl slides would be adorable, pearl hoop earrings, More affordable hoops here, and a Victoria Emerson cuff.

3 Ways To Style Amazon Short Set

Hello pretty ladies, I hope you had a great weekend.

We spent the weekend in Park City for Father’s Day, as my hubby wanted a little getaway. It was nice to relax and have a slight change of pace. Don’t you love a weekend getaway?

Today, I want to share a great Amazon find: two-piece tropical printed short set. So affordable at $29 for both pieces and comes in several prints and color choices.

Short sets are having a big “moment” right now, and I am here for it.

A short set is also an excellent option for a getaway because you can create multiple looks by packing a couple of extra pieces.

I created three different outfits for you with this two-piece set. Easy to create, easy to pack, and perfect for the pool, lunch, shopping, and date night.

3 Ways To Style Amazon Short Set

Style Amazon Short set Way #1

This two-piece Amazon short set was styled by just using the two pieces, A kimono, and shorts. This look is easily accomplished by adding A bodysuit or tank top, cute sandals (I am wearing Tory Burch Millers), a straw bag, and Fun tropical earrings.

Easy outfit look for vacation, site seeing, shopping, and even worn over a bathing suit to the pool.

Shop the Look below:

Style Amazon Short set Way#2

Outfit number two was created with the shorts from the two-piece set. Paired with a black blazer, the same Spanx bodysuit, and accessorized with Black open-toed Vince Camuto booties, a leather clutch, and finished off with gold jewelry.

The blazer gives the printed shorts a more polished look and takes this look to Summer chic versus summer vacation. Outfit number two is one of my favorite looks for summer.

Outfit number two is a look you could wear to work, wear on a date night or have cocktails with the girls.

Shop the post below:

Style Amazon Short set Way #3

Outfit number three was created with the Kimon from the set, paired with Spanx black shorts and the same Spanx bodysuit. It was created by accessorizing with Cognac Tory Burch Millers and a cognac vegan hobo bag by Social Thread. With jewelry to finish off the look.

This look could be perfect for brunch/ shopping with the girls, a coffee meeting, running errands, and casual dinner.

Taking Short sets on vacation

Packing short sets on vacation is a smart packing tip! It helps you to pack less, mix and match made easy, and it allows you to create a color pallet. Creating a color pallet for travel is a great tip to make packing easier. More packing tips on this blog post: Soma has all you need to pack for a Summer getaway.

What about Wearing breezy Neutrals, loose lines & Gauze, and a touch of stripes? Straw hats and large bags? The Diane Keaton vibe in “Somethings gotta give.”

A touch of chambray or light denim adds to the look. These are all pieces that make this style classic. Keep in mind this is an easy-breezy “beachy” style.

The Elvis Sandwich: Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana

The Elvis Sandwich: Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwich

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Today, I am sharing The recipe & How to make Elvis’s Favorite Sandwich, On Good Things Utah, for a promotion for the upcoming Elvis movie. So, my first time, I’ll be sharing a recipe on tv. However, I am used to sharing fashion, so I might be slightly nervous this time. (Wish me luck!)

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I share recipes and cooking in my stories. I love to cook for my family and share it with my followers.

A funny thing…My hubby the other day made a peanut butter and banana sandwich, and I said, “oh, you’re making the Elvis sandwich!” He said, “what?” Ben had no idea that was Elvis’s favorite Sandwich! He said, “how do you know that?” I told him I had heard it years ago when I was a kid and never forgot it. My mom adored Elvis. I am sure it was her that said something. It’s a southern thing!

Now, Elvis liked his Sandwich grilled and made with a lot of butter and even bacon fat! So I am making it without the bacon fat and a little less butter! But feel free to make it the Elvis way!

Watch the Tv Segment on Good Things Utah

The Recipe:

Elvis Presley’s Fried Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich

Two slices of white bread

2 tablespoons butter

1 small ripe banana mashed

2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Directions

Place two pieces of white bread in the toaster on a light setting. Heat skillet over medium heat with two tablespoons of butter. While the bread is toasting, in a small bowl, using a fork, mash the ripe banana until it reaches a smooth consistency. Using a knife, take both pieces of the toasted bread and spread two tablespoons of creamy peanut butter, topping one side with the mashed banana. Place one slice of bread on top of the other, forming a sandwich. Place sandwich in a hot skillet, browning each side and flipping with a spatula for about 2 minutes per side. Take out of the skillet, slice on a diagonal, and serve on a plate.

Tip: This would be good drizzles with warm chocolate or honey. This Sandwich is warm, delicious, and gooey. You might want to eat it with a fork.

Tips on packing light & stylish:-

Packing for a weekend can be daunting And overwhelming, not to mention over-packing. A great way to avoid over-packing is to pack items that mix and match well. Along with items that serve a couple of purposes.

For instance, Soma Soft Wrap can be worn as loungewear, a lightweight jacket over a dress or paired with jeans, or with your workout wear. You could even use it as a bathing suit cover-up.

The Soma Cotton gauze robe could be worn as a robe, bathing suit cover, and as a duster pair with jeans and a tank.

Packing items that can serve a dual purpose really helps keep packing easier and lighter.

Packing everything in a color theme really helps, with packing fewer shoes (which saves a ton of weight and space.) Also helps coordinate and minimize the jewelry and accessories. Along with helping with the above tip, things mix and match better.
