7 Fall Transition Looks From Evereve!

Fall Transition Looks with incorporating in some on-trend pieces for Fall 2021.

Let’s talk Evereve for a minute. Evereve is a contemporary woman’s fashion boutique geared towards moms and Midlifers who want to look Chic, feel good, and love good quality clothing. I personally love the brands they carry and how they fit. Talking about fit, Evereve has a personal stylist on hand to help you choose the right pieces for your body if that is something you want help with. They’re there to make you look your best while helping to make your shopping experience easy. I never leave the shop empty-handed.

Fall Transition= It’s that time of year when we start thinking Fall. The kids are heading back to school, which means school shopping and shorter days are approaching. Finally, we get a few cooler mornings & evenings, and Summer is coming to an end. I will share some fun ways to take some of your Summer pieces and transition them into a Fall look while incorporating some Fall 2021 on-trend pieces from EverEve.

Here are a few of this year’s trends. What’s even better is they are so easy to mix & match! I incorporated:

Camo (yes, it’s still strong as well as Stars)
Cargo Pants= Jogger Style and Skinny
Cropped Cardigans with big buttons (hip bone length)
Chunky Kicks
Mules
Chunky chain details
Blazers
Shacket (a shirt / Jacket) This year, it’s more fitted, not as bulky
Braided detail (shown on booties) (There are several more Fall Trends, and all share those soon in a post)

The Look above is a great casual chic look that’s easy to achieve using your Summer Camis and Denim Jacket. Worn with these darlings Camo Joggers and chunky New Balance Kicks. (I love the nubby details) STYLING TIP: Pulling the joggers up a bit makes it look weather appropriate and Chic! I can easily wear a graphic tee versus a camis.

Shop the look below:

In this look, I am wearing the same pieces as above, swapping out the denim jacket for this year’s on-trend cardigan. Note: The cardigan is hip length and has large buttons (you’ll be seeing this a lot). Adding the chunky chain mules instead of Kicks. This gives a less casual look to the joggers.

Shop the look:

Another way to wear camo and cargo but in the skinny leg, very leg flattering if that’s one of your body features you like to focus on. (I do as my trouble area is my middle) paired with the mules again, but you could wear the Kicks if you wanted to. I liked the mules with the blazer, although blazers and tennis shoes are trending as well. Note: The Blazer is more fitted and has cute sleeve detail and collar.

Shop the look:

(The tee is in stock in stores but unfortunately wasn’t linkable. )

Cargo loving again! This pair is a Satin finish skinny cargo, again leg flattering and very affordable. Wearing the same graphic tee, pulling out the denim jacket and the tennis shoes. Gives a totally new look, but your using your pieces multiple time. A great way to get versatility out of your clothing. Perfect pieces of packing for a trip! Shop the Look below:

Taking that Summer Tee shirt dress into Fall with Braided Booties and Shacket. The shacket has been trending for about 3 years and really came on strong last year! It was Oversized (a Jacket skirt combo) and normally bulkier. I love how this year, the trending Shacket is shorter and more fitted, a thicker flannel if you will. Shop the Look:

Days when it’s still warm enough for shorts, but you want a little cozy, Add a fun Cropped cardigan worn over a cami or tee, even wear it alone and buttoned up. (cardigans worn alone is trending) Paired with braided detail booties. It’s a fun Fall transition look. Shop the look:

Summer cropped jeans, give them a Fall update with Chunky Chain mules and a Printed leopard cardigan. So easy to wear and light enough layers, you won’t get too hot. Shop the Look:

What pieces Came home with me! Yup, I told you I never leave empty-handed! Actually, I own a version of almost all of these pieces. Like I said there easy to style, very versatile, and can be worn in many seasons. So why did I choose these 4 pieces to come home with me?

Shacket due to the new flattering styling, and I adored the color, not to mention I have a version of the dress. Joggers, I purchased the shorts and adored them all Summer, so I knew these Joggers would be a favorite. Free People gets me every time, and this chunky cropped cardigan was a piece I knew I would style on repeat. Finally, kicks…well, I am a sucker for shoes, and the details on these got me! Shop the look:

10 Summer Favorites to Kick off Summer

10 Summer Favorites to Kick off Summer🌴☀️🌊

My Favorite SHORTS right NOW… I could wear it every day… so comfortable and easy to style in multiple ways. ( Not ashamed to say I wore them 3 times last week) Purchased at Evereve HERE
TULA Sunscreen is NEW this year, and I love I can use it on Face and Body. It’s not greasy and won’t clog pores. Grab yourself one HERE
I love BEACH BAG season… Let me tell you. You could never have too many😂 HERE are a few of the Favorites I own below. 👇🏻

Here are several cute ones under $30. Some as low as $12 Shop the Post.
You know I am a HAT girl, and these are the ones I purchased this year. Each one provides great protection for your face and looks great with All your Suits & Summer outfits.
SUN TEA is no secret. I am a BIG Ice Tea drinker, Nothing better on the Hot days of Summer than to cool off with a Tall glass of SUN TEA. How I make mine: 4 -5 Lipton tea bags, a glass jar (I have a large Ball Jar HERE) fill with warm water, add bags, and set out in the sun in the mornings. By afternoon it’s the perfect Dark color I love… Grab a tall glass, add ice & pour. ( you can add mint or lemon 🍋)
A good BOOK– I have a few on my reading list this Summer. Below is a couple I can’t wait to read.
CHIPS, SALSA, and GUACAMOLE… I could eat it every day in the SuMMeR! My easy Recipes HERE
WATERMELON and YES I salt mine…. Yum yum yum

TIP: For picking the perfect Watermelon, look for one with a large yellow spot and what looks like scratch marks. The yellow means it stayed on the vine to get ripe, and the stretches are really bee stings (meaning it’s sweet). BEST watermelon cutting Knife HERE

9. SUN DRESSES Summer dress styles are easy to wear, lightweight, easy to pack, and super easy to style. (Below is one I’ve been wearing on repeat) Shop it HERE.

I’ve purchased a few of my favorites this season and have been styling over on the gram for you BELOW: (don’t judge:) HEHEHE…because YES…I did purchase every single one of these dresses this year. (insert shopping problem) seriously though..there so good and so easy to wear!

10. SANDAL season☀️ I adore sandal season, showing off pretty painted toes! It’s no secret I am a shoe lover, and I buy new shoes all the time. I can’t resist pretty shoes. Below are my go-to sandals every season and my NEW additions this year.

Let me tell you… if you don’t have Havaianas Flip flops, you’re missing out. (not joking; I own at least 20 pairs, Got my Mama hooked too) Very very comfortable, not like any flip flop you’ve ever put on. Last for years, come in so many fun colors and designs. Made in Brazil. This was the shoe that saved me when I had Plantar Fasciitis. Trust me, worth paying a little more than your average flip flop. Range $28-35

I hope you enjoyed my 10 Summer Favorites. I would love to hear one of yours below. And make sure to check out my Chic Chat Chic girlfriends blog post for their Summer Favorites as well below.

11 Bridal Shower Gifts for the Bride, She’ll Absolutely Love!

Personal Bridal Shower Gifts

Looking for a unique Bridal shower gift? While I recommend sticking to the registry for wedding gifts, a bridal shower is a perfect opportunity to gift something a bit more personal. It’s also a chance to give the Bride something that can be used on the actual wedding day, honeymoon, or beyond.

Consider the bride’s personal traits and hobbies when selecting a gift. Does the bride like to cook, Has a hobby, entertain or travel? It’s fun for the bride-to-be to be surprised by a unique gift that she might not think of for herself. (I love giving an outfit for the Honeymoon) Whether the gift is useful or indulgent, she’ll surely appreciate the sentiment behind it.

The Pj’s above would make for a darling shower gift for the bride or a perfect gift for the bridesmaids. Throwing a Bridal Shower or bridal brunch? How cute would the color scheme be, using the pj’s as color inspo? “Tiffany blue” Such a cute shower inspo. (the mug is a Tiffany & co. China cup) HERE

Shop to Post :

A Bridal Shower is a Time to Spoil the bride.

While it’s wonderful to select something from the couple’s register for a bridal shower gift, it’s also a great opportunity to gift the bride something special. Personalized gifts (like the cheese board above), pretty lingerie, jewelry, a beautiful candle to burn as she gets ready on her day, and a Custom top are all thoughtful presents that put the spotlight on her.

Shop the post:

Shop to Post:

Molton Brown, a beauty line and a complete splurg. This is a gift she’ll love and will look beautiful on any bathroom counter. I purchase mine through Skin Store

What to Wear to A Bridal Shower

Depending on where the bridal shower is, and the time of day, it depends on what you should wear. Is it in the garden, at a restaurant, at an event center? This is to be considered while planning your outfit. I choose 9 dresses that could work for any Bridal Shower. From a Bridal Brunch, a Romantic Garden Party, a luncheon, or Summer night dinner. There is a Dress above that would be appropriate.

Shop the post:

How to know How much to Spend on the Bridal Gift

Since the bridal shower is a little more casual than the wedding, the price range is also more flexible. Spending between $30-$80 on a gift (on the lower end if you are not particularly close to the bride and higher if she is a good friend or family member). Is a normal budget. You could also join in with a friend or family member to purchase a larger gift.

This week over on Instagram, I’ll share All things Bridal Shower, From Outfit inspiration, gift wrapping ideas, a must-have tool, party ideas, and a couple of recipes. And heading on a trip and taking you with me for a real-life bridal shower. Make sure to be watching stories! Have a Beautiful week.

Make sure to stop by my Chit Chat Chic girlfriend’s blogs TODAY to see what’s on their Gift Guides. Graduation, Father’s Day, and Wedding the themes.

Father’s Day Gift Guide: Ideas He’ll Love!

June marks the beginning of summer to most and Father’s Day in a few short weeks. This year {June 20th!} I like to get an early start on those gifts for him. Men {at least in my case} can be tricky to shop for when they give no requests, but focusing gifts around their needs, hobbies, and daily moments is always a well-loved option. A few ideas to consider:

Above I showcased some of the items I know my hubby would love. Veldskoen shoes, a Handcock Gourmet Lobster dinner from Gift Tree. (they have several types of meals and food baskets ship direct.) Most men I know love food and make for a thoughtful gift.

Clothing always makes for a great gift, as I’ve learned most men don’t like to shop, let alone buy clothes.

A beautiful and Handmade throw by Thula Tula. So very soft, easy to care for, and is a gift that gives back. Sustainably handcrafted with love in South Africa. I choose the Xhosa blanket above, textiles inspired by African culture. It can be used as a blanket, throw, or wrap. I personally love it’s a mini work of art. The men in my life love a soft throw for sitting on the deck on a summer evening or while watching tv. Save 15% off with code darcy15 HERE.

McCrea’s caramels are always a hit, and their gift boxes are beautiful. Here are some of our favorite flavors. Single Malt Scotch and Black Lava Sea Salt caramel. (Both included in the Father’s Day gift box!)

You can focus on dad’s Hobby’s, career, things he loves, or sports he enjoys. My hubby is a contractor and a ski coach, which means dry, chapped hands, always in need of tools, and loves Ski items. This opens a lot of doors for thoughtful gifts. From practical items like hand balms, travel mug, or water jug to ski socks and cool readers

Or searching for a thoughtful gift, A cool coffee table book on Ski resorts, or something bigger like a hotel stay and lift ticket to a resort he doesn’t have a pass for. (or even a massage because he abuses his body!) You get the idea:) Does your dad love gadgets? What about Grilling? Below you’ll find some other fun options most men would love.

Shop the post:

I had the opportunity to work with Veldskoen Shoes for our boys, and they loved them so much they thought Dad needed a pair.

@veldskoenshoesusa handcrafted with locally sourced, premium materials with stay-dry technical leather that repels water and super easy to clean. So comfortable they melt to your feet. Handcrafted by Artists in South Africa. save 15% off with code darcy15 ❤️

What’s so fun is the shoe comes with different color soles and laces. H got grey, Hamps got black, and they picked orange for dad!

Father’s Day Gift guide made easy below:

Shop the post:

My week over on Instagram focuses on Father’s Day, Gift Giving guides, how to celebrate, and some fun ideas around dad. I hope you are tuning in over there, as I think you’ll enjoy what I am sharing. I even have a fun DIY. HERE

Hoping I helped you shop for the men in your life and inspired you to get an early start to spoil those deserving hubbies, daddies, and grandpas. Have a beautiful weekend.

5 Favorite Things You’ll Love Right NOW!

Hello Pretty Ladies,

5 Favorite Things You’ll Love Right NOW!

You know those things you wear on repeat or find yourself using over and over? That’s what today’s post is all about! My 5 Favorite Things You’ll Love Right NOW! I truly do have so many things I love and find myself using to death or buying over and over, like the Slide sandals below or the only Bra I ever want to wear. But I also find myself always grabbing this straw hat and lately wearing this Pearl Jacket over and over again. I could have added about 10 more things! 🙂 But I kept it short and sweet for you today. HEHE

Hat] Gucci Band] SunDress] Denim Jacket] Gucci Sandals] Straw Clutch]

This look is perfect for Spring or Summer (remember I wore this for Easter.) I love a good Sun Dress and Fun on-trend accessories. But I am really here to Talk about this Hat and Hat Band. I love the shape of the hat; it works so well with many Spring and Summer looks. The band is sold separately HERE (Gucci but is affordable for Gucci). You can add it to any Hat or beanie, and it changes the whole look of the hat and outfit.

I own many hats and love all of them for several reasons ( I can get into that another time). I do, however, find myself grabbing this one several times a week because the shape is so good, it really does look good on every shape face, and as I stated above, it works with so many outfits. It’s a must-have in my book FAVORITE THING #1.

Shop the look below:

FAVORITE THING #2.

The pearl embellished denim jacket, Can I say repeat, repeat repeat… I have worn it 3 times this week already, and it’s only Wednesday! 🙂 Every time I wear it, I get stopped, and let me tell you, I wore it last week to Vintage Market, and I could have sold 100 of them if I had a booth! The detail and quality are amazing, yet it’s so affordable that you’d never guess it’s the dupe for the designer one. This seriously will be your go-to FAVORITE THING. Shop the Jacket HERE

Maggie] Bling slide sandal] Pearl Denim Jacket] Victoria Emerson bracelet] Pearl Hoops

Here’s that jacket again! HEHE…

FAVORITE THING #3

The Maggie distressed jeans in white, High waisted, button fly (size up) I am talking about this in stories today, as I am doing a try on this very look, talking you through it. If you’ve been following me for a while, you know, I adore these jeans and own them in all 5 washes. So that right there should tell you, they’re a favorite. 🙂 That could be its own ” 5 Favorite Things You’ll Love Right NOW!” post.

Maggie Jean is so easy to wear, even easier to style, and works with so many tops; you can achieve many looks wearing them. That easy Chic look, Casual Summer vibe, to rocker girl. All in how you style them. I even love them with a pretty lace detail top for a fun mix of distress and feminine.

Shop the look below:

1.] Black Quilted Sandal 2.] Orange Bow Slide 3.] Chunky Bling Slide 4.] Tan Leather Slide 5.] Stud Bling Slide

FAVORITE THING #4

The slide, I found myself owning several pairs of this sandal, without even knowing I love this type of sandal. I love how easy a slide is to wear; it’s very versatile to style and looks good with literally everything (well, except maybe a ball gown!) It comes in a variety of designs; you seriously can’t own just one pair. My Instagram feed shows several ways to style them, and trust me; I’ll be wearing them on repeat all Summer long. (wore above with the Maggie jean.)

Shop the photo below:

Soma Bra’s

Favorite Things #5

The Soma vanishing 360 bras are my all-time favorite bra. So comfortable you can wear all day long. I love it’s truly a vanishing bra, not visible under any shirt, let alone tee’s and tanks. I like an underwire, but they do make without the wire as well. This bra is true to size, super soft, and the best bra I have loved in a very long time.

Shope Soma Bras below:

11 Spring Fashion Trends You’ll Love

11 Spring Fashion Trends You’ll Love!

One of the things I love about the season change is the NEW trends that can give your wardrobe a little refresh. It doesn’t mean you have to go out and purchases a whole new wardrobe. It means you can add some fun new pieces to what you already own to give the pieces a new FRESH look. Isn’t that one of the things we love about Spring? FRESH

Although several trends are happening this Spring, I picked 11 Spring Fashion Trends you’ll love and be able to easily add into your wardrobe without spending a lot of money. Plus a couple of easy tweaks you can incorporate to be right on-trend.

11 Spring Fashion Trends:

Boho Home Decor
Babydoll Dresses
Shirt Dresses
Western-Inspired
Straight-Leg Jeans
Chunky Gold Links
Pearls
Studded
High waisted Jeans
Middle Part
Crocodile Accessories

#9. Is featured HERE. High-waisted denim with a wide leg and distressed detail. This Maggie Mae jean by Free People is one of my ALL time favorite jeans. I own it in every wash. (size up due to the high waist) Easy to wear and to style.

This is one piece I would suggest you grab to give your Spring wardrobe a refresh. If white isn’t your thing, You can grab them in Denim and black denim.

#8. Stud details= Featured on the bow sandals is a cute monochromatic stud detail I adore. These popular Valentino sandals are a splurge, which I linked below. I have had a couple of seasons and adore them. I felt they were worth the Splurge, knowing I would wear them for several seasons, and the stud detail is very subtle.

Shop dupes Below:

Shop this look below:

#3. & #4. Killing Two birds with one stone… The shirt dress looks great on every figure. It is easy to style, can also be worn as a duster. I love it hides my tummy (my trouble area). Shop my Hat HERE

This Shirtdress also incorporates trend #4 Western-inspired with western details in the pockets detailing and buttons. The western-inspired is very easy to achieve by adding a cowboy hat, a plaid button-up, or simple western details, as shown above.

Show the look below:

Here are a couple of subtle & easy Spring trends you can add to your Spring wardrobe…. Chunky Gold Chainlink details (shown on the bag) Pearls are ALL the rage this Spring (detail on the Sunglasses) Studded detail shown on the sandal. The Shirt Dress is making a big statement, and this one also incorporates the little western detail on the pockets. Let’s not forget about the middle part, Have been wearing a Middle part since I grew out my bangs several years ago. But this year, it’s been talked about a ton by the younger generation! they’re saying, ” You show your age with a side part and skinny jeans!” (this is a whole other subject, and I’ll go there another time!) Insert laughter!

Layered over the Shirtdress to show another way to style it is the Eyelet duster. Eyelet fabric is popping up everywhere this Spring, from Swimsuits, dresses, and denim detail.

Although this look has several Spring trends happening at once… It doesn’t scream TRENDY or overdone…. It’s ALL in how you bring the Small details together to pull the overall look off. Allowing you to be on-trend at any age.

I also love these little trendy Spring details; they won’t break the bank and can be added to your own piece. Shop this look HERE

#6. Chunky Gold Links

#7. Pearls

#8. Studded detail

#3 Shirtdress: I layered it with another trend Eyelet, shown here with an eyelet duster (I didn’t list this trend)

#10. Middle part

#5 The straight leg jean… Don’t worry; the Skinny jean isn’t gone! It’s just taking a back seat to the Straight leg jean. Here I am wearing the Straight-leg jean in a mid-rise and a frayed cropped hem. I prefer the mid-rise to the high rise, as it hit me better on my body as I don’t have a waist and my trouble area is my middle. In high-rise denim, you’ll need to go up a full size, and it really does shorten my already shorter torso. And let’s Talk REAL…I don’t love what a high rise does to my already flat butt:(!

All my height comes in my legs. I am 5’9 1/2 for reference and wear a size 6 to 8, depending on the jean. In this case, it’s the brand Level 99 denim, and these are a size 28 (let’s face it, my size also depends on my fluctuating weight of 10-15 pounds!) THANKS, Midlife, and menopause!

A couple of reasons it’s great to own a straight leg. They look great with the on-trend clog sandals. As skinny jeans could give you that elf effect 🙂 ( Insert Giggle), They really flatter the leg and add a longer leg appearance. And they look great with tops tucked in to show off your waist! Can I say, “Pull out your BELTS!”

Shop some of My FAVORITE mid-rise jeans below:

By some of my personal brand favorites. These are brand favorites because they fit so many body types, have great stretch, wear fab. These are some of my go-to jeans for styling clients and what I purchase. Brands like Kut from the Kloth, Not Your Daughters Jeans, Madewell, and Level 99. (some say HIGH rise but trust me, I tried on or own, and they are ALL mid-rise on me)

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you love my take on this year’s Spring trends. Don’t forget to follow me on Instagram and Liketoknow it for daily inspiration and shopping finds. Have a beautiful day!

12 of My Favorite Things Right Now You Need for Spring!

12 Of My Favorite Things Right Now you need for Spring! When I say “favorite things,” I know some people think that word gets used too frequently, and “How could everything be your Favorite?” Well…I Like to think of it as Favorite’s right NOW because our favorites change, and better things come along. We also have tried and true favorite things (more as our staple favorites), so see, although the “FAVORITE Things” term can get overused, it still does have different meanings.

With that said, Welcome to 12 of MY Favorite Things right NOW, a series I will be doing monthly. Featuring ALL the things I am loving and using like crazy that I think you would like to know about. Think of it as your look into seasonal favorites, things that can make your life easier, pieces. You might wear the heck out of and that favorite product you might purchase over and over.

12 of My Favorite Things Right Now You Need for Spring!

#1. Quilted Slide heels = This season’s must-have sandal goes with everything, and I seriously wear them multiple times a week.

#2. Maggie Jeans= My all-time favorite jean right now. I have these in white, black, and regular denim. Yes, I have 3 pairs, that’s how good they are. I love them, so easy to style, can be dressed up or down. I have several outfit inspirations on my Instagram. This is a mom pair of jeans with so much style; your daughter will want to barrow!

#3. ShadeM Lipstick =Seriously the best lip stains, 18 different colors to choose from. It’s none drying and stays on all day.

#4. Gigi Pip =The perfect straw hat. I purchased this last year, and I was so glad it was back for this season. Perfect shape and looks good with every sundress, shorts outfits, and swimsuits.

#5. Candle= I love candles year-round, and this one had the perfect Spring scent, Hibiscus Sangria, and the color is so pretty it will make a cute jar when the candle is burnt down. $14

#6. Tee shirt Maxi dress = This Tee shirt maxi dress with side ruffle detail is cute and comfy. I’ve been wearing it to death with my denim jacket and sandals. It is perfect for travel as it rolls up easily, easy to style, and is worn with so many shoe styles. I may have to purchase in another color. $44

#7. Tula Spray =You know I love Tula products, and I use many from their line, but this Spray is perfect to perk up after a long day. Great for setting your makeup, perfect for traveling (airplanes are so drying), and I love taking it poolside for a little cooldown. I have a bottle in my bag, in my beauty fridge, and my travel bag.

#8. Tula 24/7 = This Tula 24/7 moisturizer is a must for dry skin. I use this every morning on my face and neck, and it really helps keep my face moisturized all day long. I was so happy it came in the travel pack too. HERE

#9. Tarte = Tarte beauty products are newer to me, as people raved about a couple of products. I need to go check out their site, and when I found this Matte eye shadow compact, I was so excited. As you age, it’s important not to wear glitters as they can show wrinkles more. It’s tough to find a shadow pack that doesn’t have glitters in it. THIS one is completely MATTE. No glitter. LOVE LOVE. ( I did purchase several items from Tarte shared HERE for everything I purchased)

#10. Soma Bra= These are the only bra’s I will wear now. Comfortable, supportive & can be worn under teeshirts. If you haven’t tried a Soma Bra, you really need to.

#11. Swimsuit= This One-piece, one-shoulder Swimsuit is a show stopper, easy to wear, and definitely splurge-worthy. I love that you can also wear this as a bodysuit with jeans and trousers. So cute.

#12. Maxi Dress = This Maxi dress is flattering on your shoulders; it looks pretty with a tan. It’s just the right amount of flow without too much fabric. It’s gorgeous for Summer events, vacations and perfects to wear all season long.

This Spring baby doll style dress has the cutest swiss dot details up close, and again we see the Rust color for Spring; it’s even mixed in with the coral and orange scarf I tied to my bag🌻🌷 I purchased the large, and I should have gotten the Medium. There is a lot of fabric (I should have stayed with my true size.) I needed the length of the large. (remember, I am 5’9″ for height reference) It paired with Tortoise & gold jewelry and finished off with a bootie. (this bootie is sold out) I linked similar ones HERE

This is a cute look for Easter and can take you all the way thru Spring and into Fall. With a few styling adjustments. Add a denim jacket, taller boots ( I love cowboy boots with baby doll dresses). Even a long cardigan sweater is cute for the Fall season.

Shop my picks this season for the Baby doll dress below:

The Leopard tee shirt dress, shop the look HERE.

A tee shirt dress is a perfect Spring Dress. It’s a great and easy-to-wear dress style for Spring. Easy to wear, easy to travel with, and even more versatile to style. (I’ve linked several like ones, As mine is sold out) Wear with this season’s HOTTEST kitten heel sandal HERE or with converse. This dress will take you from day to night, all in how you style it!

I’ve paired it with a Denim jacket that hits right where it needs to take you in at the waist. (this one HERE is my personal favorite, and I own in several washes.) Lightweight, soft, and fits perfect, not bulky or boxy. Finish off the look with your favorite Gold jewelry. I wear these pieces several times a week. Lv locket, gold hoops, gold Buddha bracelets, and my favorite gold rings for laying. ( I’ve linked several like items) below & Don’t forget a straw bag.

Spring shirt dress🌻🌷

Plaid shirt dress with pearl buttons has a touch of western appeal; I took the touch of Pearl on the buttons to the next level by dressing it up with Pearls, Cluster Pearl and tortoiseshell necklace, layered Pearl bracelets one a Chanel and some tortoiseshell bangles, tortoise hoop earrings, wedge sandals, and headscarf, to finish it off!

Tip: this button-up dress can also be worn as a cute duster with jeans or shorts✔️ I love things that get double use. Shop this look HERE. Here are a few more of my favorite shirt dresses.

10 Valentine’s Day Outfit Inspiration You Can Copy!

10 Valentine’s Day Outfit Inspiration You Can Copy! Outfit inspiration is what you’re looking for? I’ve got you covered!

I wanted to put together outfits from my Valentine’s clothing rack that I shared the other day on Instagram. You could view it HERE if you missed it. It’s a great way to help you create outfits fast and use pieces in your closet you forget about. I’ll talk more about creating a seasonal clothing rack at another time as I know from all the feedback, this is a topic you want more of. (remember I did one for Fall and Christmas)

Creating Valentin’s outfits can be as easy as grabbing your red and pink items and adding fun accessories. I’ve shown below outfit creations from old pieces I’ve collected over the years and added new pieces. These outfits were created to be easy for you to copy by shopping items in your own closet. However, I did link the outfits if you wanted to add in a few new pieces. Some items may be sold out or no longer available. If that was the case, I linked similar items.

Under each outfit, I broke it down to a “menu,” if you will, to help you grab the like items and style the look from my inspiration. I hope this inspires you to go into your closet and create a fun look or two for the month of love.

Clothing Menu:

Jumpsuit cropped blazer, beret, heart necklace, and sexy heels. (jumpsuit is Eliza J and from last year)

Clothing Menu: Leather or Snakeskin jacket, festive sweater, jegging or leggings, booties, and heart glasses.

Flatlay inspo: I created a shop my post below: To help you create looks from these above flat lays.

Hoping to help you get the most out of your closet, use the above closet menus and start creating your festive outfits. Did you notice some of the pieces on repeat? Good, I wanted to show you ways to wear the same item of clothing. It’s important to get multiple uses out of your purchases.
