Posted on by

As my husband & I plan for a vacation in July, I probably think most about my options for sleepwear so that I can rest comfortably between daily jaunts. In recent years, I’ve definitely been more drawn to matching sets & why not? When there are so many styles & prints to choose from, I love finding new, playful, & stylish varieties.

SHOP: Joyspun knit notch collar top & shorts 2-piece set in 8 styles @Walmart ($16.98, available in sizes S-3XL).

I love the peach print, but most of all, the sunglasses & ice pops, which are perfect for a morning swing on the hammock or for after getting cleaned up from a day at the beach. Which style is your favorite? What kinds of pajama sets do you like to buy? Where are you headed this summer on vacation?

Posted on by

I do love me a one-in-every-color anything really–cardigans, blouses, pants, & definitely, footwear of any kind. As the temperature warms up & we get our pedicures ready for some sunshine, it’s time to think about refreshing your spring-summer shoe options without breaking the bank.

SHOP: multi-strand flip-flop sandals in 8 colors @New York & Company (on sale $8, available in sizes 6-11).

I love the color variety, price, & multi-strap detail across the foot. While slides are all the rage currently, I’m still on a flip-flop girl at heart, always worried about my foot falling out. Just me? Yes? No? Didn’t think so. However, these pair perfectly with any maxi dress & denim jacket, band tee & denim cut-offs, or floral romper & hoop earrings, no matter if you’re headed to an outdoor concert, away for a weekend road trip, or to a family celebration.

One of the chicest ways to stay both cool & stylish as the temperatures rise is by wearing linen.

However, I’m in love with these linen pants, which can be dressed up or down & still keep you cool.

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.

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.

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! Most of all, t while the matching sets whichever way you wear them are chic, they can be mixed up with other staple wardrobe pieces, including a denim jacket, button-down shirt, graphic t-shirt, or midi skirt.

Super Style Wishlist: A Classic Denim Blazer!

Posted on by

Recently, I’ve discovered some fashion flashback photos of my outfits, including a blazer over a dress or blouse with jeans—all decked out in heels, living my most affordable Devil Wears Prada life. However, I invested in blazers simply for the photo & hardly ever wear these days. Although, a denim blazer is a whole other topper than can be worn for a day in the office with trousers & a blouse or to dress up a t-shirt & midi skirt combination even more!

SHOP: INC International Concepts puff-sleeve denim blazer in black, white, gray, blue, & peach @Macy’s ($89.50, available in sizes XS-XXL).

While I love the blue denim option, but the black or gray styles can really elevate any look. How would you style this blazer? Which color do you like the best? How often do you wear blazers?

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

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.

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?

SHOP NOW!: Windowpane Capris are a Must-Have!

Posted on by

I’ve really been obsessed with plaids lately, probably because I don’t wear them as much once spring comes around. I do love a mix of plaids with florals or abstract prints when coordinating color schemes. A classic windowpane print, especially in navy, not only presents opportunity for print mixing, but also to play up other fun colors in your wardrobe.

SHOP: Time & Tru pull on capri pants in navy windowpane @Walmart ($18.98, available in sizes 4-20).

These fit so nicely & I can’t wait to wear them with a polka dot top & cardigan outfit, as well as with bright colors, like fuchsia, chartreuse, orange, & lavender. Navy is such a major neutral, & the wearing it in these capris will make for a special look for the work day or weekend.
