Watercolor buds, the prettiest ruffle flutter sleeves, and pockets! This Becca Ruffle Sleeve Shift Dress from Donna Morgan is such a pretty feminine every day dress. Perfect for the office, perfect for a special occasion, and perfect for church on Sunday.
What I love most about Donna Morgan's dresses is that they are classic and timeless. There are a variety of styles to fit every woman's shape and style. I'm loving some of their new arrivals...bold prints, playful patterns, ruffles, off the shoulder necklines, and special little details.
A Donna Morgan dress is one that you will have in your wardrobe from year to year!
As always, thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a wonderful Friday!
With the official kickoff of summer right around the corner, I've added some sophisticated summer essentials to my wardrobe. This adorable striped bow-neck shift dress immediately caught my eye when shopping Banana Republic's newest summer pieces. Stripes always make me think of summertime and I adore bow-neck detail. Plus a shift dress is perfect when trying to achieve an easy no fuss summertime look.
Every summer, I always pick up what I consider to be two summer essentials...a great straw hat and a gorgeous straw bag. You may have noticed that I've been wearing my straw hat with everything...that's how much I love it and I've been carrying my tote bag nearly everyday too. I love the simplicity yet chic style of both of these accessories and their neutral color truly goes with everything.
For a size reference, I am wearing a size 4 in the dress (which is on sale for only $60 btw) and I'm wearing a L/XL in the hat as I like my hats to fit a bit looser.
Banana Republic has some of the cutest summer pieces right now! I've included some of my favorites from their "Simply. Sophisticated. Summer." collection below as well!
As always, thanks so much for stopping by...hope you have a wonderful day!
When you find the most perfect striped shift dress that has pockets AND that is priced under $20...you add it to your cart and don't look back! I absolutely adore this navy and white striped shift dress. For the price, I would consider this dress to be great quality and a major "score"!
The material has a beautiful, yet subtle, sheen to it so you can truly dress this shift up or down. And the pockets...oh my, the pockets. I'm a sucker for anything that has pockets! I see you nodding your head too!
I've paired this dress with a floral tote because let's be honest...stripes and florals were a match made in heaven! I've also dressed it up with a great pair of nude heels and I've added a pop of color with my green earrings.
Do you love pairing stripes with florals as well?!
As always, thanks so much for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
Now that we have sprung forward, giving us an extra hour of daylight each day, I feel like I'm prepared to officially welcome spring! Moving our clocks forward always seems so symbolic of spring arriving, temperatures warming up, and wardrobes lighting up.
My mind is there and my wardrobe is certainly getting there too. Ahhhh spring, how I love thee!
I personally tend to gravitate towards white pieces for spring & summer. White is so fresh, crisp and airy. Every gal needs a beautiful, easy to wear, white dress in her closet. Frankly, I personally think every gal needs more than one white dress in her closet (I can't count how many variations of the classic white dress that I have...you can never have too many ;-)). I tend to buy at least one new white dress each season.
When I spotted this white ruffle shift dress, I knew she would make herself right at home in my closet. I love a great shift dress (a style that most if not all body types can wear) and this particular dress also has these beautiful dainty ruffles, which adds so much visual interest. AND this beauty is under $35!!!
The fit of this dress is spot on (I'm wearing a size small for your reference) and the flowy feminine style is one that can be dressed up or dressed down.
Add a pop of color here or a pop of color there...you have a beautiful blank canvas to work with when choosing your accessories. I chose a pop of color with these gorgeous earrings and I also added a dainty gold necklace too. Nude sandals elongate your legs (Lord knows I need that) and this weekender is the perfect bag for those fun weekend adventures. I can't help but dream of tropical destinations when carrying this bag!
So tell me...how many white dresses do you have in your closet?!
As always, thanks so much for stopping by and have a great start to your week!
