SHOP NOW!: Puff Sleeves are Here to Stay!


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.

SHOP NOW!: The Most Comfortable Denim Joggers!


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!

How would you style these joggers? Do you often dress up joggers for special occasions? How much do you typically spend on jeans?

SHOP Now!: Pretty in Polka Dots!


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!

SHOP NOW!: Spring/Summer Peplum Tops!


I love a peplum, especially when running errands & in need of a lightweight, comfortable piece that doesn’t feel too constricting, which is why my warm weather wardrobe consists of just such pieces to coordinate with cropped pants & drop earrings, tropical shorts & sparkly slides, or jeans & a duster cardigan. However, I’m not always a fan of the distressed, worn look, but I’m willing to give it a try, knowing that some of these colors will style well with my past-season bottoms.

SHOP: Time & Tru short-sleeved washed peplum top in papaya, turquoise, orchid bloom, & black soot @Walmart ($15.98, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

How would you style these tops? Which color are you most drawn to? How do you feel about peplum silhouettes? For more stylish posts, check out: a Time & Tru half sweater / half sweatshirt for $11, colorful bird stud earrings, must-have spring flats from Ardene! Happy Styling!

SHOP NOW!: Half Sweater / Half Sweatshirt for $11!


When getting cozy on chilly nights or preparing for next winter with amazing bargains on heavier items, like sweaters, I love a deal, as well as a multi-purpose item in gorgeous & neutral colors.

SHOP: Time & Tru mixed media crewneck top in berry, heather gray, navy, & white @Walmart (on sale: $11.00, available in sizes XS-3XL).

I never saw these in my local stores, but I’m crazy for this berry hue. Of course, the navy & gray are sleek options for joggers or faux leather leggings. I love the blend of casual with the cable-knit texture, which offers a unique top for any bottom.

SHOP NOW!: The Flutter-Sleeve Tee You’ll Live in All Spring Long!


I love how t-shirts have evolved over the years, blending the ease & comfort of a casual piece with more refined & special details that can be dressed up, such as a flutter-sleeve. While I’m not typically drawn to a dramatic sleeve, a subtle flutter adds an extra bit of whimsy, especially when paired with jeans & sneakers, trousers & ballet flats, a midi skirt & slides, or a pencil skirt & statement necklace.

SHOP: flutter-sleeve paneled t-shirt in black, beige, pink, & white @Old Navy ($29.99, available in sizes XS-4X + petite). Watch out for the current 30% off at checkout deal, or other sales that may help this topper, & the multiple colors, make its way into your wardrobe.

SHOP NOW!: Polished Sundresses by Free Assembly!


Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Any day gives me an excuse to wear green, but today, especially, I’m excited to share a must-have polished sundress in green & white plaid for spring/summer that I can’t wait to try on myself, which is also available in black too!

SHOP: Free Assembly midi sundress with tie belt in green plaid & black @Walmart ($36.00, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

The green option is lovely for Easter or other springtime festivities, while the black is a classic, feminine staple to dress up with platforms, wear with laid back slides, or be in casually with sneakers & a denim jacket.

Show Me the Shoes: $20 Flower Sandals!


Spring is in the air…somewhere! I can’t wait to get my feet into cute sandals again, paired with a maxi or midi dress or for stylish, but casual Friday at work on sunny spring mornings. We all know that flower embellishments & patterns are perfect for the season, which is why special floral details in our accessories is a fun way to play up any ensemble.

SHOP: t-strap floral detail sandal in white, tan, pink, & green @New York & Company (on sale: $20.00, available in sizes 6-11).

Similar to the Scoop metallic slides I recently posted about, as well as Old Navy’s faux suede slingback flats, aside from neutral tones, footwear in pink or green is on trend for the season, which will make any abstract, graphic, floral, or plaid print pop!

Accessories Access: 3 Must-Have Pendant Necklaces!


As always, I’m a sucker for one of each, especially when it’s a classic item that can coordinate with nearly any look. This is Aldi the case when I’m thinking about jewelry—do I get the gold, rose gold, or silver? However, for the right price, why not get all 3?

SHOP: Time & Tru crystal stone delicate pendant necklace in gold-tone, rose gold-tone, & silver-tone @Walmart ($3.88).

These charming, yet stylish pendants are perfect for any button-down, as well as a mandarin collar blouse. The peek of some sparkle is a chic finishing touch—& how could you go wrong with the price?!

SHOP NOW!: Everything is Sherpa!


All fall & winter long, my Instagram feed has been overflowing with different Sherpa items, from shackets to coats to cardigans to slippers. I know I’m a little late to jump on the bandwagon, especially as so much light & fluttery spring fashion is on the horizon, but in looking to update my casual outerwear / topper options, I was pleased to discover this new rollback—& with polka dots!

SHOP: Time & Tru faux Sherpa pullover in winter white, blue lagoon, olive dusk, & brilliant red @Walmart (on sale: $13.00, available in sizes XS-XXXL).

Personally, I can’t decide between the white or the olive, so both have been added to my cart! For $13.00, originally priced at $21.98, how could you go wrong with 2?

SHOP NOW!: Long Cardigans for Spring!


While cropped cardigans are taking a step into the background, long cardigans are having a moment as looser fits & more relaxed silhouettes are taking center stage, not only with loungewear, but also for more polished & professional outfits. Furthermore, a long cardigan tops off a look, dressing up t-shirts & jeans, a blouse & pencil skirt, or tank & joggers.

SHOP: Chelsea v-neck long cardigan in black, white, beige, green, pink, & blue @New York & Company (on sale: $20.00, available in sizes XS-XXL).

SHOP NOW!: A Velour Sweatshirt for Under $14!


With all of the great end-of-the-season sales, I’m reveling in the final days of luxe, winter textures & deep, rich colors. Velvet has had a resurgence in all forms, especially when it comes to pieces that can work for both loungewear & work.

SHOP: velour sweatshirt in black @LOFT (on sale: $13.95, available in sizes S-XXL).

Try pairing this with plaid pants, faux leather leggings, dark denim jeans, wide-leg satin pants, or joggers. Also, the neckline is perfect for layered necklaces or a bold statement piece. I wish this too was available in other colors, but I guess that’s what happens when it comes to final sale items.

SHOP NOW!: Maxi Dress Season is Here!


I love a maxi dress, especially a printed one with so much styling versatility. I can’t wait for spring & summer to come to Long Island, so that I can float everywhere I go in a maxi dress! Naturally, I support a maxi dress that’s also inclusive!

SHOP: Knox Rose sleeveless A-line maxi dress in beige striped, pink floral, & tan floral @Target ($35.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

With this dress, one could break out a bolero cardigan, crochet cropped sweater, or a long sleeve duster for cooler nights. The faded hues & timeless prints get me thinking about the 90s with chunky wedge sandals or lace-up boots!

As the barrage of end-of-winter sales are coming to a close soon, it’s time to stock up on next season’s essentials. No matter how many time I examine & reorganize my bursting sweaters shelves, I can’t help but notice what colors & styles are missing. Suddenly, inspiration strikes & I click add-to-cart!

SHOP: essential dolman sweater in winter white, heather gray, syrah red, dark purple, golden seal, & blue destiny @New York & Company (on sale: $10.00, limited availability in sizes XS-XXL).

I have the burgundy sweater, which I’m excited to wear with plaid pants & a statement necklace for a work day. The weight of the sweater is just right & I’m thinking about adding the white & gold since they’re such a great price right now!

Accessories Access: A Classic, Silver Anti-Statement Necklace for Under $6!


For yesterday’s (mild) snow day, I wanted an easy, but chic work look that kept me warm & felt effortless. I knew my knee boots were in order, along with velvet leggings, but I volleyed between sweater & accessories options until I realized that I hadn’t broken out my new silver necklace!

SHOP: Time & Tru Eb brushed necklace in silver @Walmart ($5.88, available in 18 inches).

Once I happily settled on the necklace, I immediately thought of my purple dolman sweater since silver & purple are such a glorious pairing. I love how classic this necklace is, while also being lightweight, adjustable in length, & a no-fuss kind of necklace, which is why I call it my anti-statement necklace. It has just enough shine, but it’s not too much. Not to mention that the price is right! I’d love to also contrast the subtle texture on the necklace with a floral or stripe print, along with cobalt & powder pink tops.

How would you style this necklace? Do you like it in silver? Where would you wear it?

SHOP NOW!: The Perfect Casual Skirt for Spring & Summer!


The colors of this upcoming spring season are pink & green in any shade you can mix them into your look. Of course, pull-up capris or wide leg pants make for a chic outfit, but skirts never go out of style & shouldn’t be forgotten about.

SHOP: linen-cotton city skirt in radiant fuchsia, modern clover, & black @J. Crew Factory (on sale: $34.50, available in sizes 00-20).

I love the styling possibilities here with a button-down shirt, lightweight sweater, or tee & denim jacket, which can be styled with a cardigan, layered necklaces, & tennis shoes or slingback sandals.

I’m not a big fan of button-downs at night, but the patterns on these sets, especially the lemon & blue travel options, have me excited for warmer weather nights!

SHOP: Time & Tru sweatshirt @Walmart (on sale: $10, available in sizes S-3XL).

I have the blue floral, which is true to size & extra cozy. This can be styled up with faux leather leggings & sneakers or dark denim jeans & loafers. I love the color variety here & can envision even dressing this up with layered necklaces or over a button-down shirt. The possibilities are endless!

Accessories Access: Bright & Beaded Earrings from SUGARFIX by BaubleBar!


Since my work week includes 2 night at my second job, I sometimes have the opportunity to change outfits from the typical gussied-up classroom look to something more laid back, but still fashionable. This usually entails—at least at this time of the year—a cozy pullover sweater & a big earring or necklace that might otherwise be too “extra” for the day. I’ve had my eye on several “big” earrings lately & can’t wait to hop on board this next bright beadwork accessories trend:

SHOP: SUGARFIX by BaubleBar beaded tassel earrings in pink & red @Target ($12.99).

SHOP: SUGARFIX by BaubleBar beaded tassel statement earrings in green, pink, blue, & white @Target ($12.99).

SHOP NOW!: My Favorite Cardigans for $10!


For the full-time work week, more than half the week includes a 3-piece outfit topped by a cardigan. This means that I need OPTIONS! My go-to store for cardigans of all kinds (that are also quality) is New York & Company. I miss their stores so much, but the variety of EVERYTHING on their website is making due—obviously if you’ve seen my cardigan collection.

Now is the time of year that the winter must-haves are getting marked down to make wave for stylish spring duds, which brings me to post about these $10 long-sleeve cardigans!

SHOP: jeweled-button Chelsea v-neck cardigan @New York & Company (on sale: $10, limited availability in sizes XS-XXL).

SHOP: jeweled-button Chelsea crewneck cardigan @New York & Company (on sale: $10, limited availability in sizes XS-XXL).

Accessories Access: Spring-tastic Multicolor Fashion Jewelry from LOFT!


If there’s one retailer that’s been catching my eye when it comes to jewelry & accessories this past winter season, it’s LOFT. Now that the winter statement pieces are on deep discount, the deals just keep getting better & better! Also, as we slowly move away from the dark, rich hues of winter layers & sweaters, it’s time to start embracing (or, at least, planning for) pastels for spring separates. I have just the jewelry deal for pretty pinks, sweet greens, lovely lavenders, & sparkling peaches for you!

SHOP: gem statement necklace @LOFT (on sale: $9.00).

SHOP: gem statement earrings @LOFT (on sale: $9.00).

SHOP: gem huggie earrings @LOFT (on sale: $10.00).

SHOP: gem drop earrings @LOFT (on sale: $7.50).

I already nabbed the necklace for a great discounted price, but the matching earrings are definitely worth considering. I wouldn’t necessarily match the necklace with the earrings since I love to mix up matchy-matchy pieces with other items in my jewelry collection, but the colors bring a smile to my face & the sparkles are just… EVERYTHING!

I can’t believe I’m posting about shorts when it’s still so chilly here on Long Island, but spring break is in reach & I’m daydreaming about warmer days. However, a matching linen set is a stylish, fresh staple for any wardrobe, especially as sets are so on trend right now! Not to mention, I love mixing up colors & patterns for an array of possibilities.

SHOP: Universal Thread long sleeve relaxed fit collar button-down shirt in 7 colors ($25.00, available in sizes XS-4X) & Universal Thread mid-rise linen pull-on shorts in 8 colors ($20.00, available in sizes XS-4X).

I’m drawn to the green striped set, but thinking I’d get more use for switching up pieces with the navy stripes. Also, I’m waiting for a fabulous sale, which Target often has, to snatch up at least one set for my next vacation. Plus, the pink & olive sets are all over Instagram, so I’m not the only one on board with these looks!

SHOP NOW!: A Versatile Velvet Shell for 70% Off!


My go-to uniform for any work or special occasion day includes a blouse & cardigan. The duo works for my aesthetic when mixing prints & solids with luxe fashion jewelry & accessories. Even though spring is right around the corner, I’m soaking up these chilly must-wear-velvet months as much as I possibly can, loving all of the end-of-the-season deals, especially this top:

SHOP: velvet double-v shell in black, silver grey, & deepest fig berry @LOFT (final sale: $39.88, extra 70% off with code: FRESH, available in sizes XS-XXL).

I bought the silver gray, which I haven’t worn yet, but I’m imagining it paired with a jeweled cardigan & houndstooth trousers, a blazer & dark denim jeans, or a flyaway cardigan & midi skirt with a textured belt. I also have my eye on the black & berry hues to add to my holiday rotation next year!

SHOP NOW!: Short-Sleeve Pajama Sets for Under $19!


It’s a slow, gray winter here on Long Island, but there have been plenty of cozy days & dreams of warmer weather. As I’ve had some down time to organize dressers, closets, & cabinets, I’ve been preparing for those warmer weather days, assessing wardrobe staples that I have & want to keep, what to donate, & what to get. Perhaps adulthood has instilled a much more regimented preparation of sleepwear, or that I’m so impressed by the ease my toddler daughter’s matching pajama sets, but I love to wear a set & have struggled to find a lightweight short-sleeve & cropped pant set to my liking…until now!

SHOP: Joyspun jewel neck flutter sleeve pajama set in 8 colors / patterns @Walmart ($18.98, available in sizes S-3XL).

I was immediately drawn to the leopard print & black with kisses sets, which are already stored for warmer months. Of course, there are so many pajama styles, including button-down tops or drawstring shorts, but I’ve always been looking for something soft without any buttons & something that colors my legs while sleeping. I’m really excited to break these out on a summer vacation or when hanging around the house for a lazy Saturday morning having pancakes with the family & cuddling up for cartoons. The material is very lightweight & I’m so pleased with the size inclusivity for the variety of colors & patterns. Joyspun has done it again!
