SHOP NOW: #Pride Style for Always!

Posted on June 30, 2022 by Alissa

Today, June 30th ends PRIDE month, but that doesn’t mean that #PRIDE style must end, by any means! Our love for the LGBTQ+ community, & for love in general, remains a constant as all people should always celebrate themselves, especially through style. As a part of New York & Company‘s Color of Love collection, I’m obsessed with these bold & summer-ready rainbow stripes in a variety of separates & one-piece items, all of which are currently on sale, in sizes XS-XXL, to show not only your true colors, but to express love & PRIDE, inspiring the world around us!

Consider adding any of these dresses, rompers, or tunics to your wardrobe with hoop or drop earrings, metallic sandals or bright pumps, & white quilted clutch:

SHOP: 1. Striped Maxi Shirtdress ($49.97), 2. Striped One-Shoulder Dress ($34.97), 3. Striped Belted Romper ($19.99), & 4. Striped Flutter-Sleeve Tie-Waist Maxi Top ($32.47).

Otherwise, these tops & toppers are perfect to match with any denim of your choice, crisp white linen ankle pants, a primary colored-maxi skirt, or cut-off shorts:

SHOP: 1. Striped Tie-Waist Jacket ($64.97), 2. Striped Ruffle Smock-Waist Top ($29.97), 3. Striped Flutter-Sleeve Cut-Out Top ($24.97), 4. Striped French Terry Strapless Top ($19.99), & 5. Striped Crewneck Perfect Tee ($10.99).

For a vibrant bottom option for work or weekend, choose any of these options, paired with a classic scoop neck t-shirt, crochet top & tank, or a chambray button-down:

SHOP: 1. High-Waisted Striped Skinny Ankle Pant ($49.97), 2. Belted Striped Short ($19.99), 3. Striped Ruffle Maxi Skirt ($54.97), 4. Hampton 4-Inch Short ($14.99), & 5. Striped French Terry Short ($19.99).

SHOP NOW! New York & Company’s Goddess Dress!

Posted on June 19, 2022 by Alissa

Back in 2019, I posted my love for New York & Company‘s goddess maxi dress, which has only heightened as the years have gone by & deepened as comfort in the summer moved higher on the list of summer style priorities (as a busy mother who works full-time). However, I’m excited to share that the short version of this dress (the v-neck goddess dress) is available on the retailer’s website in a fabulous variety of 7 colors (black, coral, green opal, grand sapphire, paper white, purple mardi gras, and scuba blue) in sizes XS-XXL while supplies last.

Currently, these dresses on sale for $19.99, but I urge readers to keep an eye on all of the major sales that New York & Company frequently posts about, not only on social media, but via email subscription; prices change quickly! I already have the black & navy versions of this dress, but I have the green & purple dresses on my mind too. Although, any of these frocks can be styled in a plethora of ways, including with high heels & a metallic clutch for a girls’ night out, gladiator sandals & a floppy hat for daytime, as well as with a sporty blazer & sneakers for a mix of athleisure & glam.

Additional adaptations of this flattering goddess style can also be found with New York & Company’s tie-waist goddess romper (available in 4 colors in sizes XS-XXL) & cold-shoulder goddess top (available in 9 colors in sizes XS-XXL); examples are pictured below:
