Dark Pink Minidress

How fun is this dark pink minidress?  I love all the different details and how they work so perfectly together.  I wore this dress originally for Easter lunch with a pair of flat sandals. The flowy style was perfect for overindulging in Easter sweets. 😉  It’s perfect to dress up with a pair of wedges for brunch or an afternoon bridal/baby shower.

This mini dress comes in 3 colors, white, light green, and this gorgeous dark pink shade.  This dress is filled with so many little details that work perfectly together like the windowpane print, ruffle details, and cute button detailing.  This dress does come with a detachable slip underneath that also has adjustable straps.  The fit is oversized, so I went with an XS size.

How to Wear Overalls this Summer

If these overalls look a bit familiar, I styled the medium blue shade of these for you last spring with a cute way to dress up overalls.  I love the lighter shade of these overalls for summer and wanted to share an easy summer outfit idea with a few closet basics.  This casual way to wear overalls will be perfect for running errands or a casual day at home.  The lighter color and looser fit make these perfect for a hot summer day.

The bottom of these overalls roll up to create the perfect length for us petite gals.  I added my embellished sandals to add just a hint of sparkle to the outfit.  With these overalls being loose fitting throughout, a fitted tank top is the perfect way to balance the proportions.  It helps show a little shape and keeps the look from overwhelming my shorter height.

Casual White Dress for Summer

Hello Hot Summer Days! We hit an early heat wave this month which I’m sure means it is going to be a HOT one this summer.  Bring on the lightweight fabric and breezy dresses.  A casual white dress for summer is a must have when the heat is on.  The light color helps keep you cool. I love looking for loose fitting and flowy silhouettes to let air flow.  This dress is 100% cotton which is a great breathable summer fabric.

I love the eyelet details, subtle ruffle trim, and embroidered details to give this dress a little bit of statement factor. I dressed it up with my braided heel sandals.  You could also toss on a pair of flat sandals for a casual look. If you want to add a little definition to the waist, you can add a belt.  This will make it a bit shorter.  Also, this dress is lined which makes it not see through at all.

Geo Print Empire Waist Blouse

Hello friends! I hope your Spring season is going well! We had a super busy April, and I’ve spent the first few weeks of May catching up and getting back into a routine.  We also had a chance to shoot some fabulous new outfits for the blog that I cannot wait to share.

I wore this business casual outfit a couple weeks ago. I think it would also be perfect for date night or girls’ night out.  The brown geo print empire waist blouse has a fun print and flirty silhouette.  To transition this square neck top from office to happy hour, pull the sleeves down to create a cute off the shoulder look.  The colors of this top will make it work perfect in fall too. I’m thinking black skinny jeans and brown or black tall boots.

For spring, I paired it with my dressier dark blue bootcut jeans and these super affordable braided block heel sandals.  I love the ease of slide sandals, and this pair has been on major repeat this season. I sized up a half size.
