Posted on by

As much as I love a fruit-printed blouse or an embellished cardigan, I can never have enough casual tops to throw on for running weekend errands, which is usually when I’m dressed my most casual. As the warmer months approach, my casual wardrobe demands versatility in matching up with linen bottoms of all hues or cottons shorts in a variety of patterns, which is why I love this top:

SHOP: Time & Tru roll cuff top in 4 style @Walmart (on sale: $7.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I’ve definitely added both striped tops to my cart with plenty of possibilities to pair with shorts, cropped pants, joggers, jeans, & leggings, along with sneakers, slides, & sandals.

SHOP NOW!: Eyelet All Spring & Summer Long!

Posted on by

Once of my favorite parts about this time of year is shedding the layers & heavy fabrics of the cooler months & embracing the light, flowy joy of cotton, along with the breezy & feminine texture of eyelet. Whether it’s a dress, skirt, embellishment on a shoe or pursue, I love an eyelet detail because it adds a little something special & classic to any look! Recently, Walmart‘s Time & Tru brand has included eyelet touches on some versatile staple items that are not only affordable, but also easy to style for a variety of occasions.

SHOP: Time & Tru eyelet flutter sleeve top in black, orange, & white @Walmart ($16.64, available in sizes XS-3XL).

SHOP: Time & Tru eyelet ruffle sleeveless top in white, black, olive, & pink @Walmart ($11.98, available in sizes XS-3XL).

I love that both of these options, available in a variety of colors, can be styled with denim, linen, joggers, or leggings for shoppers in sizes XS-3XL! These are great to pair with an open cardigan & ankle pants for day & then mix it up on the weekend with cuffed jeans & tennis shoes.

For most outings during the warmer months, I love a matching linen-cotton combo set, but you can never go wrong in a t-shirt dress. Something as foundational & classic as this allows your style to shine with the careful consideration of accessories, such as a denim jacket & sneakers, a statement necklace & woven belt, or feathered earrings & espadrilles.

SHOP: Time & Tru short sleeve tiered knit dress in 10 styles @Walmart ($14.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I love the colorblock options, but the solids in black, olive, & navy are likely going to join other must-haves in my cart! How would you style this dress? Which color is your favorite?

There are so many fun ways to wear a t-shirt, so why stop at just one style?

Posted on by

We’re in an era of comfort where pull-on pants are plentifully available & the season’s most popular color for a pull-on pant, aside from the staple black, is pink! I’m wary of wide leg pants; however, the slit trend is also major right now. Whether I’m putting together a work look or ensemble for a girls’ night, comfort is key!

SHOP: A New Day high-rise tapered ankle crepe pants in pink & black @Target ($25.00, available in sizes XS-4XL).

I gave both pair & can’t wait to style them up with embellished flats, braided slides, or pointy toe pumps. I love both colors & wish that more were offered, including green, navy, or gray.

SHOP NOW!: Gauze Sleepwear for Lounge or Beach!

Last year’s coastal grandmother trend isn’t going away any time soon, which is why we’re seeing so much linen & cotton this season. It makes sense—after all, the cool, comfortable & classic gauzy look is effortless & stylish for all sizes. Currently, Walmart’s Joyspun sleepwear label is selling the following pieces (a tank with shorts set, as well as a top & pants separates) that triple in use for sleep, loungewear, & beachwear!

The 90s are back with a stylish vengeance this season, including the slip dress trend! However, todays pick includes an inclusive slip dress in linen, perfect for an evening outing with metallic sides & a braided belt, the weekend with tennis shoes & a denim jacket, or poolside over a swimsuit.

SHOP: A New Day sleeveless linen dress @Target ($20.00, available in sizes XS-4XL).

I especially love the multicolor printed dress, as well as the stripes. If this was available in a maxi dress cut, I’d add them to my cart, for sure! I love sharing these with readers, especially since it’s an affordable find & available in a variety of sizes!

When it comes to style in the warmer months, while trendy pieces & bold accessories are essential for exploring your sensibilities, comfort is also key! It’s time to break out the linen, cotton, & chambray, along with any denim cut-offs, to pair with the season’s newest must-haves!

SHOP: Time & Tru pinstripe ruffle top in navy, papaya, green, & pink @Walmart ($14.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I love how pretty & classic this top is, juxtaposing the soft ruffles & peplum-inspired silhouette with seersucker stripes, which will pair perfectly with white jeans, linen shorts, dark wash denim capris, or gauzy wide leg pants!

Accessories Access: A Classic Crossbody for All Spring & Summer Long!

Posted on by

My latest obsession is a crossbody bag. I’d been using the same one on weekends for a few weeks now, but then it went & broke on me right before a recent family getaway. While I do love using the silver croc-embossed version I recently posted about here, crossbody bags seem to be popping up everywhere!

SHOP: A New Day saddle crossbody bag in gray @Target (on sale in stores: $12.50, on sale online: $21.25).

While this is somewhat smaller than what I usually like to wear, I do love the neutral metallic hue that will look great with a casual look, such as a peasant top & denim cut-offs, or a date night ensemble, like a maxi dress & cardigan. Shoppers, look for this in your local Target stores to get the best deal, which you can see below, is available en masse near me.

SHOP: happy heart pajama top (on sale: $17.49) & happy heart pajama pants (on sale: $17.49) @LOFT, available in sizes XXS-XXL).

For me, it doesn’t have to be any day in mid-February to want to wear hearts. My favorite way to practice self-care is through sleeping, so why not do it in something as cute as these pieces?

SHOP: classic pointy flat in black floral & white floral @Ardene (on sale: $10.00, available in sizes 6-10).

Loungewear & sleepwear has come a long way in the last few years & I’m loving it!

Accessories Access: Spring’s Most Versatile Crossbody Bag!

Posted on by

When it comes to running out & about, whether for fun or errands, a crossbody is my go-to. I’ve fallen into the habit of changing out my massive weekday tote to a smaller crossbody for weekends, especially when needing to be mobile with my little one. This newest crossbody is not only versatile for its removable strap, but also stylish for any spring occasion, including a family party, date night, or al fresco brunch with girlfriends.

SHOP: A New Day straw chain shoulder handbag in natural, green, & pink @Target (on sale: $28.00).

I love the contrast of the tortoise chain, especially in the green & pink options, but when simplifying the look, I love the thinner strap. How would you style this bag? Which color do you prefer?

It’s time to break out the arms as the weather slowly, sort of changes to actual springtime & show off a flattering sleeve & the glory & variety of t-shirts! When there’s a twist involved, that’ll look stylish with a midi skirt, linen shorts, pull-on pants, or dark denim jeans, sign me up!

SHOP: Time & Tru twist top with short sleeves in black, blue, pink, & stripes @Walmart ($11.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I have the black, which I can’t wait to coordinate with a pleated midi skirt & statement necklace. I do wish this too was available in an olive green, as well as a more royal blue. They’d be staples in my spring wardrobe, but a girl can dream!

How would you style this too? Which color would you wear? Where are you shopping for new spring t-shirts? For more stylish posts, check out: chambray peplum tops, must-have windowpane capris, & chunky chain flats from Ardene! Happy Styling!

SHOP NOW!: Chambray + Peplum = Style!

Posted on by

I will always love a peplum top, along with a light & breathable chambray material. The flattering shape in a classic & neutral fabric makes for a stylish & winning combination with tropical linen shorts, red jeans, plaid capris, or patterned leggings!

SHOP: Time & Tru chambray peplum tank in black & tie dye @Walmart ($15.98, available in sizes XS-XXXS).

While I’m not always a big fan of hanging ties on tops, the ease of this calls more for a fun, threaded earring than any kind of neckwear, especially come those hot summer days. I gave the black & can’t wait to style it up for a casual day in the office or when planning my family’s next road trip!

Show Me the Shoes: Chunky Chain Flats!

Posted on by

While everyone is out & about in platforms & varieties of ankle boots or slides, I’m still all about a pointy toe ballet flat! I’ll invest in every color under the sun to stay comfortable for a work day giving lectures. I love the point to polish off my look–no matter what I’m wearing. Not to mention that I’m very drawn to flats that feature special embellishments, including studs, bows, or jewels. However, this post is all about the chunky chain!

SHOP: chunky chain flats in black & beige @Ardene ($19.90, available in sizes 6-10).

I do have a pair of black chain flats from years ago that are still in pretty good condition, so I was excited to find the beige option to mix with my new spring favorites, including dusty rose pants & a short sleeve sweater, or classics, such as a fit & flare dress with a cardigan & statement earrings. The gold touch on the toe emphasizes the mix of hard against the soft pastels & florals I’ll be wearing this season.

The must-have markdown of the season is here! I love a pullover that can go from dressy to casual with the switch out of jeans & sneakers to faux leather leggings & a statement necklace. This is especially the case for a top with statement sleeves that’s worth it to have in every color!

SHOP: Nine.Eight casual long sleeve statement pullover @Walmart (on sale: $9.88, limited availability in sizes XS-XXXL).

Originally, I ordered the white because the item is referred to as a sweatshirt; however, this is a thin, stretchy pullover material & it was very sheer. Not wanting to layer, I’m returning it, but very much looking forward to the navy & magenta options. The price is just too good to be true & I wish my size was available in more colors. I guess that’s just how it goes with end of the season clearance items!

Now that spring has sprung & 2 local trips are planned between now & early June, it’s time I start looking ahead to summer—in style! While linen does wrinkle & require care when washing, it is a breathable, comfortable, & classic material for a dress. Even better, a flattering & inclusive dress that can be styled up or worn casually.

SHOP: Universal Thread sleeveless linen dress in blue, black, pink multimate, green, blue multi, & white @Target ($30.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

My favorite is the green, but I did recently get the green eyelet dress I posted about back in February, so I think the blue (navy) will be a formidable option. I do wish there was a thicker strap, but the puckering across the waist is so flattering.

I’m so guilty of—time & time again—succumbing to sparkle. If it’s on sale or a deep final sale discount, I’m shattered! I have no backbone! I want it! I want to style it! I want to write about it!

SHOP: Charter Club gold-tone pavé & color stone pear shape bracelet @Macy’s (final sale: &8.83).

SHOP: Charter Club two-tone crystal palazzo bracelet @Macy’s (final sale: $8.83).

Rarely a day goes by without wrist adornment & lately, I’ve been layering since there are so many gorgeous pieces that look even more spectacular when paired up with others. I have all 3 of the above & I already have then prepped for outfits this week! They sparkle in the light, have some quality weight to them, & are easy to adjust, so I recommend them for early Mother’s Day presents or just for yourself, if you’re into bling!

It’s taken me a while to hop aboard the puff sleeve trend train, but as these gorgeous spring styles are rolling into my ‘Gram (@styledarlingdaily), I can’t help but think about all of the styling options!

SHOP: puff sleeve mixed media top in Palm Springs Pink, Agave, & Black @LOFT (on sale: $29.97, available in sizes XXS-XXL).

I’m nuts for the minty ‘agave’ top, especially with tropical linen shorts & neutral mules for vacation, windowpane trousers & block heels for work, a pleated midi skirt & ballet flats for a family party, or jeans & sneakers on the weekends.

Let’s all give it up for the one & only Sofia Vergara who got denim joggers right! The actress-turned-fashionista has nailed it when it comes to a combination of comfortable, stylish, & affordable pull- on jeans with a joggers twist. I can’t wait to wear them all the time, especially since I haven’t worn jeans since before my pregnancy in 2018 started to show!

SHOP: Sofia Jeans by Sofia Vergara Paula knit denim joggers in Bel Air, Trinity, & Oceana wash @Walmart (on sale: $18.50, limited availability in sizes XXS-XXXL).

At the recommendation of another blogger, I ordered these in the lightest Bel Air wash, only because the darker Oceana wash was sold out in my size; however, now that I’m in love with his comfortable & trendy these are, I’ve already ordered the Trinity wash before it’s too late!

Spring is the perfect time of year to lighten up those layers & play with patterns. One of my all-time favorites is polka dots, especially in a cardigan that tops off a blouse, jeans, plaid trousers, or a fit & flare dress.

SHOP: polka dot puff-sleeve cardigan @New York & Company (on sale: $35.97, available in sizes XS-XXL).

Also, I love this, like it’s pictured, with a bright pair of trousers, but also a magenta or Kelly green pencil skirt would be fun too!
