Y’all, last weekend we had our first taste of Spring around here, and it was delicious.  We spent the entire day on Sunday Lounging (with a capital L) outside on our back patio, just watching the boats pass by.  I’m telling you guys, this whole “temporary rental home”  while we remodel thing could really become a permanent in my book.  (More on what in the world I’m talking about here.)  Just don’t tell Eric.  It was 75 degrees and beautiful, so I took full advantage and used the day to break in a new favorite pair of denim shorts which ultimately just got me thinking about ALL OF THE SPRING THINGS that I can’t wait to wear.  Shorts!  Sandals!  Dresses!  And denim jackets with just about everything.  (Spring evenings are always a little chilly around here.)  I seriously need that little striped dress at number one, have already ordered the wedges at number two, and was so surprised at the prices of numbers four and eleven.  (And I think you will be too!)  So whether you’re enjoying a little California sunshine or currently surrounded by snow (sorry!), take a peek into Spring, and let me know – what are you guys most looking forward to wearing next season?

It’s sandal season, people, and I’m so excited to team up with Payless once again this season to show you a few “so hot right now” styles that won’t break the bank.  Y’all, this pair.  They’re comfortable enough to wear all day, will go with just about everything in your closet, and will set you back about 30 bucks.  What’s not to love there?  I got these pretties a couple of weeks ago and have worn them a ton of times since – with dresses, denim cutoffs, and boyfriend jeans.  Before you spend three to four times as much on a similar pair, you HAVE to check out the easy peasy spring selection at Payless.  Stay tuned for more great styles coming to the blog soon!

Topshop Espadrille Wedge  9. Sofft Perla Wedge  10. H&M Suede Wedge  11. Faux Leather Ankle Strap Wedge (under $20!)  12. River Island Printed Wedge  13. Ugg Melinda Platform Wedge  14. Merona Faux Suede Espadrilles  15. Isola Yara Wedge  16. Fisherman Wedge Sandals

Admittedly, this season I’ve already gone a little wedge crazy.  I mean, I wouldn’t say it’s a full-on problem YET, but I’d say that once we start to move into a new house in a couple of months, shoes are gonna really hit the fan.  (Get it?  Ha?  Stupid.)  But whatever, y’all, spring is wedge season and for me there’s just no saying no.  Suede, leather, tassels, ties, bright colors…somebody bring me ALL the wedges!  So today I’m rounding up a few favorites that I’ve found.  Number 9 on the list is already in my closet (you can see them in action here), and they’re as comfy as can be.  Plus, there are 5 pairs here that are under $40.  What?  Nah-uh.  Yeah, girl.  Get your shop on.

Style Under $100 With Love, Olia

Lulu’s jumpsuit and heels (c/o)

Helloooo, out there, and happy Tuesday!  This week I’m excited to once again team up with the adorable Olia from Love, Olia to bring you a little style under $100, and this time we’re playing favorites with Lulu’s.  If you’re not familiar, Lulu’s is a go-to site for buys on a budget with the cutest selection of clothing and accessories.  My favorite by far has got to be their shoe section where you can get seriously on-trend styles that won’t break the bank.  (Hello, new gladiators under $40.)  For this week’s $100 challenge, I just couldn’t resist this jumpsuit (because when can I ever resist a good jumpsuit), and I love pairing the navy silk one piece with black accessories.  A simple pair of heels and accessories completed the look for a date night, work event, girls’ night out, or anything in between.  Looking for a little more budget inspiration?  Head over to Love, Olia and check out her Lulu’s look.  Hope everyone is having a great week!

While shopping for my head to toe MissGuided summer look a few weeks ago, I may or may not have had about a hundred other things in my shopping cart when it was time to checkout.  (To me, an overflowing shopping cart that’s edited down by a few simple clicks is half the beauty of online shopping.  The choosing is the hardest part.)  While I’ve already gone back for yesterday’s floral little number, there are still a ton of summer picks on the site just calling my name.

LBD Me: MissGuided may be filled with bold prints and bright summer looks, but it still definitely feeds my little black dress addiction.  While I’ve always been a sucker for a slightly oversized t-shirt dress, the adorable fit-and-flare skirted silhouettes are a current phase.  Loving all four of these.

Summer Romp: Nothing screams summer to me more than an easy romper.  Whether dressed up with wedges for a warm night or worn casual with sandals during the day, a fun playsuit is a versatile summer favorite of mine.  I’m loving the standout tribal and floral prints along with the dressed-up red option.

Accessories, Please:  Every girl needs her accessories, and the prices here can’t be beat.  Go for a little sun protection with an of-the-moment hat or statement shades, grab a sleek handbag, or stock up on wear-everywhere sandals.

Have you checked out MissGuided yet?  What’s in your shopping bag?

Add a little tropical pep in your step by incorporating fun island prints into your spring wardrobe.  These tropical scalloped shorts are so chic paired with a luxe tee, and the draped back of this one by OAK is summer perfection.  Finish the look with easy gladiators, stacked gold jewelry, retro shades and a standout, contract clutch.  Hope everyone has an amazing weekend!

Best Dress

I’ve proclaimed my love of the little black dress since the birth of the blog, but it’s the little white dress that’s been seriously growing on me lately.  Although I’m not usually a huge fan of linen (the wrinkles drive me nuts), this little drop-waist number is such an amazingly versatile piece for spring.  Whether you dress it up with sky-high platforms like the blush pair above or go casual with low-key gladiators, you really can’t go wrong.  Finish with a few strategic pieces of gold, retro shades and one seriously adorable clutch.  Hope everyone is having a great week!
