Hello Ladies!  How was your weekend?  Mine was both fun and productive!  I love a weekend that hits a good mix of both.  After a few busy weekends in May, it was really nice to play catch up on my to do list a little bit this weekend.  Especially since I have a busy couple of work weeks coming up, it’s nice to feel a little ahead.

In previous posts, I have talked about my love of the color pink and my current obsession with floral prints, so it was only a matter of time before I found a piece that incorporated both.  This pink floral dress has all the feminine appeal from the ruffles to the flowy chiffon fabric to the pink floral print.  I love the contrast between the light pink and maroon of the print.  Oh and there is also a very subtle stripe in the print too.  I mean, how could I pass up on this dress?!?!

This dress would be perfect for work or for a baby or bridal shower.  It would also work for church or a luncheon type event.  To keep with the pretty in pink theme, I added in a few of my favorite rose gold jewelry pieces. I went with a nude colored purse, but I think a white one would also work with this outfit.  For shoes, block heel sandals would be another good option.

Alright ya’ll, I have lots of fashion for you this week with the May Favorites on Wednesday and a casual outfit featuring a few wardrobe staples on Friday.  So be sure to come back and check those out, and I hope you have a great first week of June!

Hello friends!  Well it has been a pretty busy week over here.  Mostly playing catch up from being out of town all weekend.  You know the fun things like laundry and grocery shopping.  I’m also trying to get back on the healthy eating track after doing a little indulging in all the delicious holiday food over the weekend.

With summer weekends officially in full swing, I wanted to share this cute dressy casual summer outfit idea featuring a coral puff sleeve top and white jeans.  I talk often about how much I love mixing all the bright colors with my white jeans.  It’s such a good combo for summer.  I decided my floral sandals were the perfect compliment to add in a print to this look.  With solid color crew neck tops, I usually like to go with a long pendant or statement necklace .

This coral top also get double duty at the office. It pairs perfectly with my floral striped midi skirt and works with pencil skirts too.  You could try a fun color mix and do a green or bright blue skirt with a nude colored heel.

Also, I wanted to mention it’s the last few days to sign up for my summer online personal styling session.  A little background on the styling session, in case you missed me mentioning it in a past post.  Each session is a 3 step process designed to help you clear out the closet clutter and create a wardrobe you can feel confident in all season long. 

We start by sending you a closet checklist that includes wardrobe basics and some seasonal and trendy items.  You go through your closet and let me know what you have, want, or don’t care for.  I take that list and do a little shopping for you to help fill in any areas you may need or want.  Then, we send you around 30 outfits you can create based on the closet checklist.  I also help you create outfits with items you already own and love that are not included in our checklist.

My past clients have mentioned feeling less anxiety about getting dressed in the morning and more confident putting outfits together, loving their newly organized closet free from items they were no longer wearing, and feeling more mindful while shopping.  You will not be asked to buy a whole new wardrobe or anything like that, there is no obligation to buy any of the items I recommend to you.  One of our main goals is to help you work with what you already have to create a versatile summer wardrobe, the shopping help is just a little bonus!  AND, it’s all online so you can live anywhere to join a session with me.  These summer sessions are only 3 weeks, and you can sign up or find more information at MillieandMain.com.

Hope ya’ll have a great rest of the week, thanks for stopping by!

Styled 3 Ways: Black Tank Top

three ways to wear a black tank top to work, casual outfit, and date night look by Petite Fashion Blogger Lady in Violet

Happy Friday! Welcome to this month’s Styled 3 Ways.  Since we are heading into summer, I wanted to share one of my summer staples – the black tank top.  I own about 3 different black tank tops.  These tops are great for layering during cooler months, and pairing with skirts, shorts, and jeans for warmer months.

I picked up this black tank top from Amazon.  It comes in a 2 pack, so I order the black/striped combo.  I love the overall fit on these.  The straps are nice and wide to hide bra straps, and the front is not too low cut.  In addition to wearing these out and about, I also love wearing them around the house as cozy loungewear.

For these 3 way posts, I thought it would be fun to be sure and give you not just 3 outfits, but 3 different occasions too.  This month, I went with the 3 most needed – work, casual, and a night out.  I hope you enjoy checking out these three ways to wear a black tank top.

Wrinkle Free Work Dress

Kicking off this week with a little work wear inspiration for you!  I have been wearing so many skirts and dresses to work lately.  With warm/hot weather sneaking in, I feel this trend will continue well into summer for me.  When shopping for work clothes, I look for a few different things – comfort, washing directions, and does it wrinkle easy.

Most days at work, I sit at my desk working away on my computer.  While I like what I wear to be professional and fashionable, I also want to be comfortable.  You ever have those morning where you consider wearing your pjs to work because you are too comfy too change. I like having comfy things that are also office friendly, it’s a win-win!

This navy floral dress is so comfy that I want them to make it in more colors!  It’s a super soft and thick jersey knit style material. The fit is a shift style, but slightly comes in at the waist to still give a little shape.  It’s probably one of my comfiest work dresses! The print and flutter sleeve detail give it a little feminine flair.

My other favorite thing – it’s a wrinkle free work dress!  This fabric is one of my favorites to buy clothes in because it rarely needs ironing.  Occasionally, I run late in the morning and having a few ready to go work pieces is great on these days.

You can also toss on a denim jacket and flat sandals or wedges with this dress and have a ready to go weekend or casual outfit.  Speaking of weekends, how was yours?  I celebrated a few birthdays, ate yummy food, and then ended with a relaxing Sunday at home.  It was a pretty good mix of fun and relaxation.  Hope you all have a wonderful week!
