Gingham

You guys! I love this dress SO much.  I was totally on the fence about it before I tried it on, but now that it’s arrived, I seriously can’t seem to stop thinking of different ways to style it.  I love that you can dress it up or dress it down, and that it lends itself well back to a pop of color.  The possibilities really are endless.  And if you’ve been following my blog for a while, then you know that I love adding items to my wardrobe that present multiple outfit options.  That is the best, and most cost efficient way to build your wardrobe!

On a slightly different note, if you are a Nordstrom cardholder and interested in checking out the big anniversary sale happening right now, be sure to check out THIS POST.  I’m breaking it down and sharing all of my top picks and the best deals to help make navigating the sale a little bit easier!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Cropped

No matter how old you are, I believe there are ways to participate in the trends of the season (with a little tweaking here and there) to make them age appropriate. Take the cropped trend for example. I have been wanting to give this style a try for quite a while, but I’m obviously not going to be running around town showing off my stomach.  So I was pleasantly surprised to find this top that is just long to keep me covered, but just short enough to fall into the cropped category.  It also doesn’t hurt that it’s off-the-shoulder (which is my absolute favorite trend this season)!

I’d love to know, do you guys like to try out modified versions of different trends?

P.S. You’ll have to excuse my wild hair in this post-it was super windy when I took these photos!

Stripes

I have a hard time saying no to anything striped.  Particularly striped dresses this time of year.  So when I spotted this cute little number at Nordstrom, I knew it would not only be the perfect thing to wear on the 4th, but that it would also be a comfy basic to keep on rotation in my closet this summer.  And at only $38, who could resist?

Repeat

I originally purchased this Free People dress last summer in pink and wore it for my birthday celebration in Sonoma.  And I loved it so much and got so much wear out of it, that when they brought it back this season, I bought it in this pretty minty/sage color.  And this summer, it is once again one of my favorite things in my closet. It’s also on sale right now, and comes in several other colors.  So if you have been thinking about getting this dress, I would highly recommend it! You’ll get so much wear out of it, I promise it will be worth every penny! PLUS it has pockets this year too!

Although be warned.  It seems to be running a little shorter this year than last year, so I would recommend sizing up for length.

Gingham

I love this little gingham top.  It’s such an easy, breezy piece to just throw on and go. And guess what?  It would be perfect to wear on the 4th of July!  It also comes in a few other colors and prints and is less than $15.  Definitely a great piece to add to your closet this summer!

Neck Candy

Another day, another off-the-shoulder number.  I just can’t seem to help myself when it comes to this trend!  Plus, it’s the perfect neckline to show off my pretty new necklace from French Kande.  Seriously, their jewelry is my FAVORITE.  If you haven’t checked them out yet, trust me, you NEED to!  Oh, and I should mention that my dress is less than $50 too!!

Black and White

I don’t typically tend to gravitate towards a lot of black and white combos during the summer months.  But when I saw this top, I absolutely fell in love with it.  It is so fun and totally different from anything that I have in my closet.  And that is exactly why I love shopping with ChicWish.  They have so many feminine and unique pieces for really great prices.  So if you aren’t familiar with them, then I would definitely recommend checking them out!

Alright, so if you are curious about LikeToKnow.It (LTK), here is the scoop so you can shop all of your favorite Instagram posts just by hitting the “like” button:

  • All you have to do is go to their website (here), and sign up using your email (you only have to do this ONE time).
  • Every time you “like” a photo on Instagram that has an LTK link on it (I’m sure you have noticed these links on photos), you will get an email with all of the links to the product featured-making it super easy to shop! 
  • Your LTK account will save all of the photos that you have liked, so you can always log into your account to go back and find something-or use it as a compilation of outfit inspiration.
  • The reason why bloggers use LikeToKnow.It?  Besides making it easy for you guys to shop our posts, if you purchase something using one of those links in the email, the blogger makes a small commission.  And commissions are one of the main ways that bloggers make money.

I hope that helps!  If you have any more questions about LTK or how it works, please feel free to reach out and let me know!

Tunic

I love a good tunic paired back to skinny jeans and a staple pair of pumps.  It’s definitely a go-to look for me.  And when I’m on the hunt for a new tunic, Free People is always a brand that I look to first.  They have some of the best tops around, in my opinion.  Particularly if you are looking for something flowy and comfortable for summer.
