I know, I know! Everyone says statement necklaces are out & layering necklaces is in. I can’t help it, but I love a bold piece, especially one in a color I can’t resist. Case in point: green!

SHOP: A New Day green square stone necklace @Target ($16.99).

I do wish this was also available in pumpkin, burgundy, navy, & plum tones to add some extra flair to other fall looks. How would you style this necklace? What colors do you like to wear?

I love kicking off the school year in a dress, one that’s fashionable, functional, & versatile in styling possibilities. While I do love my classic scuba fit & flare dresses of yesteryear, I’m so drawn to the flowy ease of a “basic” dress that’s really anything but—

SHOP: Knox Rose A-line maxi dress @Target in 4 colors ($38.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

SHOP: Knox Rose flutter short sleeve tiered dress in 4 colors @Target ($30.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

Summer isn’t over yet, & nor are the hits! Recently, Spotify, YouTube, & airwaves everywhere have been clamoring with love for Selena Gomez’s new pop track “Single Soon,” Miley Cyrus’ reflective ballad “Used to be Young.” The songs are quite the opposites of each other in many ways as “Single Soon” looks forward to self-love & new future adventures & “Used to be Young” is more of an introspective conclusion of wild days of the past. No matter what—both are amazing! Add them to your playlist & watch the videos below!

With fall around the corner, retailers have the Halloween season on the brain. Not only is home decor hitting shelves, but also Halloween-inspired fashion to mix into your wardrobe. I was never really one to go literal with festive clothing until I became a mother & now, I’m loving stylish & surprising details in my wardrobe to signify a holiday.

SHOP: EveryWear printed crew-neck t-shirt in 2 styles @Old Navy ($14.99, available in sizes XS-3X).

When I first saw the foil pumpkin top, I thought it had rose gold flowers on it & I was on board; however, I love the pumpkins & I’m super excited to find trendy ways to incorporate this into my wardrobe. Also, if headed to a Halloween-themed gathering (minus costumes), the ghosts are a playful option. Either tee can be paired with jeans or joggers, as well as faux leather leggings or a denim skirt, along with ankle boots or sneakers.

How would you style these Halloween-themed t-shirts? Which would you wear? Are you a fan of festive dressing? For more stylish posts, check out: utility pull-on pants in 5 colors, ribbed tunic tops for under $16, & inclusive skirt sets from Target & Walmart! Happy Styling!

SHOP NOW!: Utility Pull-On Pants in 5 Colors!

It’s no wonder pull-on pants are all the rage in fashion these days. Post-COVID style has majorly changed & while the masses are hungry for chic duds, comfort is key! Meanwhile, the 90s are smashing into this mentality & here we have a casual, yet stylish option for pants to mix & match with our everyday & work wardrobe.

SHOP: high-waisted Pulla utility pants in 5 colors @Old Navy (on sale: $19.99, available in sizes XS-4X).

While I’m not one to wear paler colors on my bottom half, I do love the dusty rose look of these. Additionally, these can be styled with a tucked in pullover sweater & layered necklaces or with a flannel & puffer vest. How would you style these pants? Are you on board with the pull-on pants trend? How often would you work these into your professional wardrobe?

SHOP NOW!: Ribbed Tunic Tops for Under $16!

About this time last year, I posted about cozy tunic tops by Time & True @Walmart & here we are again! However, the newest run of these soft, luxe, & comfortable tops includes some new colors & a high school neck. I prefer this cut much more than the v-neck, even though I’ve worn mine plenty during the colder months.

SHOP: Time & Tru ribbed tunic tops in 4 colors @Walmart ($15.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

These can be styled in a variety of ways, including with lightwash jeans & layered necklaces, as well as with a statement necklace & faux leather leggings. How would you style this top?

SHOP NOW!: Fall Cardigans are Here!

Posted on by

My favorite all-time article of clothing has to be a cardigan. I love the way it completes a look & highlights a color story in an outfit. Additionally, I get really excited about finding cardigans with various details, such as different necklines, sleeve lengths, or button adornments. However, a classic cardigan can take you far this coming fall, especially when paired with a blouse & joggers, a knotted graphic tee & jeans, or over a sheath dress with mules.

SHOP: cropped cardigan sweater in 8 colors @Old Navy ($36.99, available in sizes XS-4X).

These timeless cardigans are not only cozy, but also available in 8 colors that will get you through fall, winter, & the cooler spring months. Which color do you like the best?

SHOP NOW!: Inclusive Skirt Sets for Fall!

Posted on by

Who doesn’t love an outfit that you don’t even have to think about putting together? Well, that’s why matching sets, whether for a casual loungewear look, date night, or teacher outfit, are the biggest trend this coming fall. Matching sets don’t have to just include sleepwear, especially when a more utilitarian & minimalist 90s aesthetic is dominating retailers. Take a look at the matching sets below!

SHOP: Universal Thread v-neck sweater vest in 2 colors @Target ($30.00, available in sizes XS-4X) & Universal Thread mini sweater skirt in 2 colors @Target ($30.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

SHOP: Time & True rib knit top & skirt 2-pc set in 4 colors @Walmart ($28.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I love the inclusivity of both styles, especially with different skirt lengths, but I’m really impressed with the ease of taking these from day to night as well. For either look, the pieces can be coordinated with other wardrobe staples, such as a knotted graphic tee, button-down shirt, or light wash jeans. Not to mention that the shoe possibilities are endless with loafers, mules, sneakers, or ankle boots.

Once the weather transitions from hot & muggy to cool & crisp, it’ll be time to break out the outerwear options. Fall fashions are in full force right now & there are so many cute & affordable options to freshen up last year’s fall wardrobe & top off your look in style.

SHOP: Knox Rose drape front jacket in 3 colors @Target ($40.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

I love the ease of this jacket, which looks like a sweat jacket with a belted blazer silhouette. It’s perfect for casual Fridays or a teacher outfit with a button-down or blouse & jeans or topping a peasant dress & cowboy boots to transition into the next season. While I love the olive hue, I do have my eye on the versatility of the black jacket.

SHOP: Time & Tru waffle pullover top with long sleeves in 4 colors @Walmart @$13.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I love the idea of pairing this cozy top with velvet leggings on a chilly fall Sunday, a puffer jacket & jeans when heading out pumpkin picking, or with faux leather pants & ankle boots to dress up this oversized piece. I’ll tell you, Time & Tru never fails when it comes to comfy clothing as most of my “off-duty” pieces are from this brand. I’m especially loving this option to mix with my patterned leggings for some playful & stylish looks when baking with my daughter or heading to the store.

90s trends have taken over summer & they’re not stopping for fall, including neutral sweater vests, which transition nicely from season-to-season. Pair a sweater vest with high waist trousers, plaid ankle pants, distressed boyfriend jeans, or under a blazer, & your look is complete, especially if coordinating in sleek, neutral tones.

SHOP: A New Day crewneck ribbed sweater vest in 4 colors @Target ($25.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

Also, a sweater vest is perfect for over a button down shirt & straight leg pants or with a statement necklace, satin midi skirt, & loafers. How would you style this item?

Splurge or Save… on Twisted Mules?

Posted on by

Even though we’ve been talking a bit about fall boots & hoodies, let’s not forget about how summer is still very much shining brightly & mules are here to stay! When it comes to designer footwear, there are so many options, but who doesn’t love an affordable look-alike that saves you money?

As seen above, Dolce Vita’s Pilton mule (@Dolce Vita) is a stylish option for a variety of outfits & I do love the various colors, but not the $125.00 price! However, if you love the texture & twisted band combination & you’re looking for your next going-out heel, check out below:

SHOP: A New Day Jessa mule heels in 3 colors @Target ($37.99, available in sizes 5-12).

These neutral, affordable options are perfect for any bridal shower guest look, a family barbecue, or girls’ night out. Not to mention that these will certainly carry over well into next spring too!

As of late, hoodies have been evolving & why shouldn’t they? Loungewear & athleisure are becoming more & more popular, thanks to The ‘Gram, & major retailers are getting on board with this trend.

SHOP: Time & Tru mixed media hoodie in 4 colors @Walmart ($19.98, limited availability in sizes XS-XXXL).

As I look ahead on my calendar to cooler days ahead–not to wish the rest of the summer away–my family is planning to attend fall festivals & go pumpkin picking. A stylish hoodie like this is perfect for those occasions, not to mention when wanting to look cute running out & about on the weekends.

Splurge or Save… on Platform Sneakers?

Posted on by

I mean… with a price different of over $750, what’s the question really? Sneakers are becoming more & more stylish these days, so it’s no wonder that major mainstream retailers, like Target, are “taking inspiration” from luxury designers to elevate how consumers express their street style.

Chloé’s Nama sneaker (above @Chloé) comes in 6 chic & playful different color combinations, but for nearly $800, a budget shopper just can’t fathom that kind of an investment in footwear. However, Target comes to the style rescue with these newly back-in-stock sneakers that I’ve been eyeing for quite some time!

SHOP: Universal Thread Persephone sneaker in 3 styles @Target ($42.99, available in sizes 5-12). Of course, the textures & neutral colors are hip for any look, whether it’s a casual Friday in the office or you’re headed out in a polo dress for brunch. If you keep an eye out for upcoming back-to-school sales, Target is likely to have a coupon deal on women’s shoes, so you may be able to get these for even less–or get 2 pairs!

Which sneaker style do you like the best? Which designer brands do you splurge on? Would you splurge on these or save instead?

SHOP NOW!: A Satin Summer-to-Fall Dolman Popover from Old Navy!

Posted on by

I’m constantly torn over blogging about summer or fall fashion since there’s so much of both right now that is on sale & brand new, but a frequent question I get from friends & followers is how to build a capsule wardrobe. While this post isn’t going into great detail about the specifics of that, the best piece of advice I always give is to find pieces that you can wear multiple seasons & that layer well for a variety of occasion.

SHOP: dolman sleeve satin popover shirt in 6 colors @Old Navy ($29.99, limited availability in sizes XS-4X).

There is so much possibility with this top as the satin texture instantly dresses up any pair of jeans & slides, linen shorts & wedges, or peasant skirt & sneakers, but it can also be made even more sophisticated with a pencil skirt & stilettos, plaid trousers & ankle boots, or faux leather leggings & sneakers. This top is ideal for a professional look, a holiday dinner, happy hour, or date night. Keep an eye out for upcoming back-to-school deals from Old Navy to get a discount on this top that’ll be sure to rotate frequently in your wardrobe!

08/08/2023 Darling of the Day: Natalie Portman’s Preppy Off-Duty Look for Less!

Posted on by

During a recent trip to Sydney, Australia, Oscar-winning actress Natalie Portman attended the Angel City Equity Summit to support Angel FC, the National Women’s Soccer League she co-founded, as reported by People. As paparazzi focused more on the Natalie’s missing wedding ring amid rumors & scandal surrounding her 11-year marriage to choreographer Benjamin Millepied, Natalie makes a case for confident & poise in her preppy off-duty look.

The casual, yet classic button-down shirt, jeans, blazer, & loafer combo doesn’t feel dated as she keeps it fresh, inspiring Style Darlings everywhere to recreate the look on a budget. So many of these pieces are staples that can be swapped out for a variety of outfits, but I took the time to assemble the look with affordable & inclusive picks.

SHOP: A New Day long sleeve Oxford button-down shirt in white @Target ($25.00, available in sizes XS-4X) & high-waisted OG straight button-fly extra-stretch jeans in Kittykat @Old Navy (on sale: $40.00, available in sizes 00-30).

SHOP: Nine West double breasted blazer in micro check @Kohl’s (on sale: $58.50, available in sizes XS-XXL) & Liz Claiborne regular fit blazer in coral haze multi @JC Penney (on sale: $32.69, available in sizes XS-XXL).

SHOP: A New Day Hayes loafer flats in black @Target ($19.99, available in sizes 5-12) & ASOS DESIGN wide fit Lakeside slipper ballet flats in black @ASOS ($23.00, available in sizes 5W-12W).

SHOP: A New Day plastic round sunglasses in black @Target ($15.00), Sonoma Goods for Life textured teardrop drop earrings in silver @Kohl’s (on sale: $12.60), & A New Day Refined crossbody bag in black @Target ($30.00).

Even if you wanted to simply wear the button-down shirt with jeans, you could top it off with virtually any kind of blazer–any cut or color. Likewise, you could take out the loafers & add ankle boots, ballet flats, or mules. Additionally, depending on the blazer color you choose, you could even select gold or rose gold jewelry to add some sparkle & dimension.

08/03/2023 Darling of the Day: Jennifer Lopez’s National Spritz Day Look for Less!

Posted on by

If anyone knows how to do summer in style, it’s Jennifer Lopez. She never fails to bring the drama, flair, & street when hitting the red carpet; however, it’s often her more feminine & delicate looks that are truly breathtaking & inspiring.

On Tuesday, the multihyphenate celebrated National Spritz Day while promoting Delola, her new business venture of “world class crafted cocktails,” according to the brand’s website. As posted on her Instagram, a video, featuring Taylor Swift‘s “Cruel Summer,” shows Jennifer exiting her summer home (maybe in The Hamptons?), wearing a gorgeous green–her favorite color–coreseted floral midi dress with a slit (see below), It’s a perfectly breezy choice for the summer & occasion. Additionally, the dress is affordable for $47.99! Keep scrolling!

Shop the exact dress here:

SHOP: Houseofcb vintage floral print side slit corset midi dress in gardenia @Sthcute ($47.99, available in sizes S-L). However, while the dress is a great price, the inclusivity is missing, which is why I also selected these equally breezy & floral mint options to recreate the essence of JLo’s look:

SHOP: ditsy floral drawstring ruched pocket ruffle tiered dress in mint @Bloomchic ($32.80, available in sizes M-6X & 5 colors) & floral print ruched puff sleeve midi dress in teal @Rainbow ($19.97, available in sizes 1X-3X & 2 colors).

Jennifer’s effortless & timeless look is finished off with thick round gold hoop earrings (shop similar here) & rose gold flip flops (shop similar here), which can be found more affordably here:

SHOP: Cloverlay flip flops in rose gold @Amazon ($19.99, available in 6-11 & 10 styles) & Gacimy chunky 14-karat gold hoop earrings @Amazon (on sale: $13.99).

While everyone in the world is talking about the Barbie movie, it’s not only Margot Robbie & Ryan Gosling‘s performances that are being praised, but America Ferrera‘s empowering role as Gloria as well.

However, for any Style Darling of any size, I was inspired to build this look from affordable, inclusive pieces!
