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?

Fringe

First of all, I LOVE the splatter print of this dress.  There is just something so nostalgic about it to me.  I think it’s because it reminds me of a denim jacket I had when I was a kid with neon splatter paint all over it!

And second, can we talk about how amazing this necklace is?  One of my best friends gifted it to me and I am OBSESSED!  Plus, it’s less than $20.  Talk about the perfect statement piece to add to your wardrobe this summer!

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!!

White Hot

Remember how I told you on Monday that you were going to be seeing a lot of the off-the-shoulder trend on the blog this season?  Well, it looks like I wasn’t kidding.  🙂  But in addition to loving anything off-the-shoulder this summer, I am also loving anything white.  And this top?  I am pretty much obsessed with it.  And not only is it reasonably priced, but it’s one of those pieces that can be worn time and time again.  Definitely worth every penny, and then some!

Top: BB Dakota | Skinnies:  7 for all mankind | Necklace: Baublebar | Cuff: Kendra Scott | Clutch: Clare V. | Sunnies: Karen Walker | Wedges: Jessica Simpson (my faves!)

Pastel

Though the seasons and trends come and go, long sleeve dresses have been at the top of my list for quite a while now.  And this dress is a definite favorite.  I love the soft pastel print, and the lightweight fabric makes it a perfect transitional piece to wear as the weather warms up (and it’s definitely getting warm around here)!

Blues

In years past, I haven’t typically had a lot of blue in my closet.  But this season, it seems to be a color that I am really gravitating towards.  And this dress from JCPenney, has been a staple in my closet this spring.  Not only does it work great with a cardi or denim jacket, but now that the weather is warming up, I am loving how it looks paired with a denim vest.
