So itโs been such a weird time trying to figure out what day it is most days lol! However, I have been trying to keep busy by still trying out Spring trends, making my own etc! I have decided to show you how to style a slip dress for day!
Now babes this slip dress Iโm wearing is actually a true vintage nightie! To wear a piece like this and not have it look like youโre walking a Victoriaโs Secret runway is by pairing it with chic accessories and structured pieces!
I paired this vintage slip with pumps and an oversized pink jacket, I added a baseball hat to finish off the look!
Everything Iโm wearing is sold out or vintage so I will link to similar styles!
So I hope you are all hanging in there! Iโve decided to continue my theme of Wear The Dress! I love wearing dresses, Iโm super girly at heart so when I go to my closet itโs usually the first thing Iโll reach for. With that being said I have a ton of dresses and some super fancy ones too, which leads me to beg the question of when do I wear it?!
The dress I decided to wear just because is one that has been sitting in my closet since before Thanksgiving. I was originally going to wear it for Thanksgiving and then I decided to wear something completely different. I love the flow and light weight feel! Itโs a maxi that is definitely best suited for warm weather!
I purchased this dress on sale for $150 from Free People. Itโs by Jenโs Pirate Booty
And itโs currently still for sale on their site! However, itโs gone back to its original price of $198.
One of my fave things to do is layer my clothing! When I think of layering I think of it like baking a delicious layered cake. To make aย layered cake the pieces have to come together in harmony and the flavors have to mesh well. The same thing is the case with layering clothing. You have to put together layers that are cohesive that have depth and character.
For this Spring layered look I took light pieces that had depth yet would still not be overpowering or that would not get too hot!
The layers are:
ย a light dress-Zara
A lace see-through dress- Free People
And a long Spring Jacket-Vintage
I picked fun colors that are light and exude a sense of light and Spring time sophistication!
When layering for Spring and Summer make sure the pieces are light in fabrics for color to give off the correct vibe!
Nothing says Spring like sporting Florals! Itโs timeless and fresh and just screams Spring.
Florals feel like a renewal of fresh and bright things to come!ย
As you all should know by now, Iโm in love with all things vintage, from furniture to clothing, vintage is for me! Itโs a great way to reuse what we have and be chic at the same time!
Iโve paired my vintage floral dress with my signature red pumps and a baseball hat to make this fancy dress more casual!ย
Usually I have my vintage finds for sale in my boutique, however this time I fell in love and kept the dress!
I hope you all are doing well and staying safe! I know it’s an incredibly difficult time now but I hope you all are keeping positive. I am in the vulnerable category because of my asthma so I’ve been inside for a week. I thought I might as well Blog and inspire you all with some Spring Fashion!
While it is technically Spring, it still is on the chillier side but pastel colored pants bring the Spring time Vibes no matter the weather!
I have paired these pants a few different ways to show you how to embrace Spring in the midst of the cooler weather!
Christmas Time! Itโs the most wonderful time of the year! Which also means tons of events and wondering what to wear! It can be overwhelming! Well I have a few ideas for you which I hope will take some of the pressure off!
Event: Christmas Party-Casual
I say you can never go wrong with an Ugly Christmas Sweater! They are festive and fun and allow you to eat without wearing something tight and constricting. Pair with a mini skirt and tights to dress it up a bit!
Remember, this is a work party so you dress with that in mind. A safe bet is wearing dressy office attire with a dash of Cheer! A sparkly top, pencil skirt and brooch would be perfect!
No matter what you do during this Christmas season I hope you have an amazing time with family and friends! God bless you and remember Jesus is the reason for the season. Try not to forget the important things. Being with the ones you love.
My gosh it’s been forever since we spoke so I apologize! To give you an update; I had another baby so I’ve been insanely busy and tired ๐ค
However, now that we’ve settled into a sorta routine I will be blogging once a week! So be ready to hear more from me!
Now on to the fashion!
I can’t believe how quickly the 4th is coming up! It seems as if I was just getting done with Easter now it’s already the end of June!
I love Independence Day! It’s usually hot and it’s a great day to be outside and hang with family and friends. It’s always fun to dress in America’s colors while doing it! However, I’m a firm believer in making sure outfits for holidays aren’t super “cliche looking!” I believe it’s important to purchase pieces that can be worn more than once and easily incorporated into your everyday wardrobe. You can easily add accessories to make your outfit look more patriotic!
First, a classic look that’s always an option-shorts!
A pair of chic shorts in classic denim or white would be a perfect choice to celebrate the 4th of July! Shorts are great for wearing to picnics and other outdoor events!
Next, leggings! This athleisure fave is a no brainer if you want to be comfy and stylish at the same time! Make it work for the hot weather by switching out leggings for a pair of biker shorts instead! Pair with flats and a tunic top to give it a daytime look rather than looking like you’re about to hit the gym!
As we approach the New Year it’s always easy to look back on what we could’ve done and should’ve done better. I just want you to know that you don’t need to get down on yourself for missed goals or not achieving what you feel you should have.
A new year means new goals and possibilities. However, you don’t have to wait for a New Year to start over. Each day is a New Day with a new chance to make the improvements you wish to make!
With that said, if you don’t have fancy plans for tonight don’t worry about that! Give yourself permission to have a Cozy New Year’s Eve!
We are in our final stretch of Winter! March is is here but we all know this doesn’t mean that warm weather happens right away. This simply means that we will have to Endure coldish-warmish in-between weather. This is were chic hosiery and leggings comes into play! I love being cozy however, I never want to sacrifice my style. I will show you a few ways to style your leg wear to get through this fickle weather!
Fishnets
I love wearing fishnets they add that subtle chic-edge to an otherwise preppy outfit.
When wearing fishnets try to keep most of your outfit fairly simple. Fishnets make an impact, a lot is not required to make a statement wth these!
Tights are perfect for that in-between weather when it’s warm enough for a skirt yet too cold for legs to be bare! Don’t confuse tights as something that can only be worn on fancy occasions. Tights can also be worn with an athleisure vibe!
Floral Tights ( It’s hard to see the detail in the picture)
Shoes are sold out however, these low Heels give off the same easy going vibe!
Pair with any oversized white sweatshirt!
Leggings!
You know that feeling you get when you want to feel like a Mermaid? Awesome, you know it too?! Well I found one of the best ways to achieve that in a comfy way is through a pair of seagreen leggings! The denim jacket and pumps give the look a more grownup vibe!
Similar Jacket!
Well Dolls I hope this gives you more outfit inspiration until we can be free of cold weather!
Until next time, stay chic dolls ๐

When you think of sequins, what typically comes to mind is an evening out with friends or a haute date(see what I did there?! LOL) anyways all jokes aside most think of a fancy occasion and/or event. However, for a few years now the trend has gone away from simply keeping sequins for night attire and has transitioned into day! If you are still iffy or unsure of how to rock the trend I want to give you a couple of ideas!
A Sequin Skirt!
A sequin skirt pairs perfectly with a denim jacket and pumps! The socks add a casual vibe and makes it perfect for daytime and evening alike!
A Sequin top lends itself to the same concept of combining casual and dressy. A Sequin top paired with sweats makes it easy to run errands and adds that subtle chic to your day! I love this one because of the detailing of the sporty striped neck KLab Sequin Top!
The blue pumps adds that pop of color that’s perfect for a grey outfit and day! Pumps are from Justfab!
