SHOP NOW!: A Hooded Terry Cover-Up!


One of my favorite summer purchases has to be an unexpected swim find, which has the ease of loungewear & versatility of athleisure for the pool or beach.

SHOP: Time & Tru shimmering stripe terry cloth cover-up with hood in black @Walmart ($19.98, available in sizes S-XL, limited availability in 1X-3X here).

During a recent road trip to an out-of-state water park, I wore this with my swimsuit & shorts underneath during the drive & then between rides. I wish it was available in other colors as the white & metallic combination would be very chic. How would you style this piece? How many cover-up options do you have?

Luxury Look-Alikes for Less: White Midi & Maxi Skirts Inspired by Taylor Swift, Selena Gomez, & More!


It’s not secret that white skirts, whether mini, midi, or maxi, are on trend for the summer time; however, inspiration from celebrity street style offers a variety of ways to wear this seasonal staple year-after-year.

Selena Gomez, Katie Holmes, Taylor Swift, Olivia Wilde, & Priyanka Chopra Jonas in white midi & maxi skirts

I love how it’s a lighter contrast to a heavier knit on a cool morning or evening, as well as a dressy way to coordinate a graphic tee or polish off a crop top for a special occasion. Not to mention, white-on-white monochrome is classic for the hotter days when you want to feel & look effortless. Here are some affordable & inclusive suggestions to get inspired by Selena, Katie, Taylor, Olivia, & Priyanka’s white skirt style.

SHOP: smocked poplin midi skirt in white @Forever 21 ($29.99, available in sizes XS-XL).

SHOP: Carlson linen midi skirt in white @Nordstrom (on sale: $47.20, available in sizes XXS-XXL).

SHOP NOW!: The Smocked Tank You’ll Wear Everywhere!


During a recent jaunt to Kohl’s (with some Kohl’s cash to burn), I was pleasantly greeted with a smocked tank that can seamlessly be styled from day to night in a variety of ways. I bought the green & have already worn it with linen pants & ankle pants for work & weekend, loving the flowy silhouette.

SHOP: LC Lauren Conrad smocked tank in 9 colors @Kohl’s (on sale: $23.99, available in sizes XS-XXL, petite XS-XXL here, & plus 0X-4X here).

While I can’t recommend this top enough, it is made from a rather sheer fabric, which is why I stayed away from buying the white. The square neckline is perfect for some shorter layered necklace or a long chain. Not to mention that this would look great tucked into shorts or paired with a mini, midi, or maxi skirt. How would you style this top? Which color do you like best? Where are you shopping for summer staples?

SHOP NOW!: Enter the Peplum Era of Your Wardrobe!


If there’s one silhouette that I love & will never stop wearing, it’s a peplum, which is both flattering & forgiving for any occasion. For my plus-size, curvier Style Darlings, I’ve found just the right top to pair with white ankle jeans & slides, a pencil skirt & stilettos, leggings & knee boots, lace short & wedges, or belted with a maxi skirt. Take a look at some colorful & affordable options!

SHOP: solid crepe knit peplum top limited availability in all 5 colors @Rainbow ($12.99, available in sizes 1X-3X).

SHOP: tiered sleeve ruffle peplum top in 7 colors @Rainbow ($16.99, available in sizes 1X-3X).

I adore both of these options, even though I’m not usually one for a voluminous sleeve moment. For such an affordable price, it only makes sense to invest in multiple colors in these. How would you style these tops? Which colors do you like best? How often do you wear peplum?

Accessories Access: Straw Totes for Your Next Beach Adventure!


With all the necessities that go into planning a vacation, road trip, weekend getaway, or beach day, a sturdy & spacious tote is a must! Aside from a canvas find with a playful saying in it, consider crochet to accessorize your next summer adventure, especially with just under 16 inches in height & width!

SHOP: Universal Thread crochet tote handbag in 5 colors @Target (on sale: $24.50).

Show Me the Shoes: Buckle Slides for $12!


The shoe of the season is a slide, which is available in multiple varieties this summer, including flower details, metallic tones, jewels a-plenty, & multiple straps. Additionally, to play up a “hardware” look, enter: the buckle.

SHOP: double-band buckle sandal in 4 colors @New York & Company (on sale: $12.00, available in sizes 6-11).

SHOP NOW!: Chic Caftans for Under $20!


With vacation plans booked & plenty of beach days ahead, a versatile, stylish, & affordable coverup is essential. While a classic, oversized button-down shirt is a classic choice, I love the idea of a caftan, as if it’s a maxi dress to keep you covered & cool.

SHOP: Time & Tru midi crochet caftan cover up in black & white @Walmart ($19.98, available in sizes S-XL, shop 1X-3X here).

SHOP NOW!: Ruffle Sleeve Lace Tops from Amazon!


In my continued pursuit for unique white & burgundy tops, I considered sleeve lengths of all styles, but struggled to find a well-fitting top that offered some sort of detail or interest beyond a basic tee, especially when I have been searching for something for work outfits & to pair with statement necklaces.

SHOP: Dorose lace top in 4 colors @Amazon ($25.99, available in sizes S-XXL).

If interested in ordering these days, I’d recommend sizing up as I originally ordered XL, but then returned & repurchased XXL. I can’t wait to style these with fit & flare skirts, patterned bottoms, denim cut-offs, & pull-on pants. How would you style these tops? Which color do you like best? How do you like to wear lace?

Accessories Access: Summer’s Must-Have Bracelets!


With temperatures rising, I’m always looking for comfortable & lightweight clothing to wear that’s stylish & special. Usually, I downplay my accessories game since I don’t like the feeling of various metals on my skin when spending the day outside in the sun. However, there’s a chic ease of a bracelet with a maxi dress & wedges, tank & linen shorts, or blouse & joggers, which is why I’m recommending these fabulous finds:

SHOP: Universal Thread cylinder beaded stretch bracelet @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: Universal Thread smooth bar stretch bangle bracelet set @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: Universal Thread simulated leather & tube slider magnetic bracelet @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: Universal Thread simulated suede with chain overlay magnetic bracelet @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: Universal Thread semi-precious white howlite & sunstone stretch multi-strand bracelet set @Target ($12.99).

SHOP NOW!: This Cotton Maxi Dress is Selling Out!


All over social media, I’m seeing sundress after sundress in bright, playful colors in linen, cotton, & other fabric blends, inspiring shoppers to style up looks for baby showers, graduation parties, & daytime weddings. However, this particular dress in selling out fast!

SHOP: Free Assembly sleeveless square neck maxi dress with elastic straps in 5 styles @Walmart ($39.00, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

I love the green option—being my favorite color—but also the stripes & florals are definitely popular for a reason. Any of these dresses will look fabulous with colorful beads, raffia earrings, or stacked bangles, as well as with a crochet cardigan & braided slides.

SHOP NOW!: Stylish Swim Cover Ups!


As temperatures rise & summer plans are made, cute & functional swimwear is necessary for a fun time! Aside from a swimsuit that I’m feeling confident in, I love a cover-up that doubles in style & purpose, like a printed dress that can go from poolside to the next destination.

SHOP: rope tie mini cover-up in 2 styles @J. Crew Factory (on sale: $24.50, available in sizes XXS-3XL).

I love the fruity option most, especially with sparkly slides & a chunky bangle. Not to mention that a little chain link belt would easily transform this cover-up into a stylish mini dress.

The Stylish Five: 18-Karat Gold Earrings for $24.99 & Under!


Just like my penchant for the same clothing items in multiple colors & patterns, jewelry in varying metal tones is a must-have, especially when recently & deeply discounted. This time of year is perfect to gift baubles to a bride-to-be, recent graduate, or bestie for a birthday in chic white gold, classic yellow gold, or (my favorite) rose gold. These 5 picks from Walmart are $24.99 & under—marked down from $69.00 & up, & I can’t decide which are my favorites!

SHOP: Cate & Chloe Nora 18-karat stud earrings in rose gold, white gold, & yellow gold @Walmart (on sale: $19.39-$19.99, originally $150.00).

Accessories Access: Floral Statement Jewelry on Clearance!


Sometimes, the most statement-making jewels don’t include any sparkles or gemstones. I love a strong piece on gold, silver, or rose as a neutral against brighter pieces like a red blouse, purple dress, or green sweater.

SHOP: floral statement necklace @LOFT (on sale: $34.99, use code: CYBER for extra 50% off).

SHOP: floral earrings @LOFT (on sale: $24.99, use code: CYBER for extra 50% off).

Depending on the look you’re going for, I wouldn’t recommend wearing these pieces together, but they’re perfect with more subtle accessories for any occasion any time of year, including a summer wedding, weekend gathering with friends, or date night.

Summer is the perfect time of year to play up color in your accessories, whether you’re wearing a maxi dress, printed romper, off-the-shoulder top & linen shorts, or a t-shirt & jeans. Not to mention, one of the trendiest textures for accessories is raffia, which makes a bold & playful statement all season long.

SHOP: SUGARFIX by BaubleBar raffia statement earrings in 5 colors @Target ($12.99).

I love the color variety of these earrings, along with the styling possibilities with solids, prints, or graphic designs. Which color do you like best? How often do you wear raffia in the summer?

SHOP NOW!: A Sheer Sleeve Top in 27 Varieties!


During a recent pursuit of burgundy tops (for school spirit days next semester), I came across an Amazon retailer that offers a stylish top in 27 varieties. As I plan my summer wardrobe, vacation ensembles, & filter out older pieces to donate, I’m always on the hunt for some staple stand-by pieces for upcoming busy weeks & weekends.

SHOP: Aokosor Swiss Dot Puff Sleeve Tops in 27 styles @Amazon ($18.69-$24.99, available in sizes S-XXL).

I have already ordered the burgundy, black, Kelly green, & cobalt blue, along with 2 of the printed varieties. They run true to size & I love how they can be styled with jeans, a pencil skirt, linen shorts, wide leg palazzo pants, faux leather pants, or ankle pants for any time of the year. Also, I’m excited to style these up with drop earrings or a statement necklace, as well as cluster studs & charm bracelets.

SHOP: Time & Tru tie shoulder camisole ($14.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL) & pull-on shorts ($14.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL) in 3 colors @Walmart.

I love the denim chambray set, which would look great with any number of other pieces, like solids in olive, red, or white, as well as tropical & graphic prints with slides or sandals.

Accessories Access: A Leopard Crossbody for Your Next Weekend Getaway!


I’ve been loving carrying a lighter load with me on weekends & now that my weekday work responsibilities have lightened by using my silver croc crossbody, but I like to also alternate it with another stylish option to get the most wear out of it. Not to mention, I was seeing an animal print or more subtle neutral to wear moving ahead through summer into fall.

SHOP: Universal Thread Cayden crossbody bag in leopard @Target ($25.00, also available in black, cognac, olive, & cream).

I love the larger size of this crossbody without the bulk of a shoulder bag tote, as well as the smooth fabric & chic print. As my family is planning some upcoming haunts, I’m a little more stylish when on the go & headed for a fun time!

If a dress, top, pants, or jacket has some stretch to it, I’m all about it. In every day life with work & family, I don’t have the patience to feel constricted in my clothing, especially in summer. A smocked bust or detail in a dress makes all the difference, especially for curvier women.

SHOP: A New Day smocked tube dress in 5 styles @Target ($30.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

I love the pop of color in the turquoise & the chic simplicity of the leopard print. I’m torn about which one to wear to my daughter’s preschool graduation, but I know I’ll get a lot of stylish use out of both this season. Not to mention, good on Target for not only the style variety, but also the vast size range for a classic summer dress!
