Last month Harper's Bazaar ran an article about how some women are now wearing the exact same thing (on purpose!) every day to work. While I completely understand and see the logic behind the idea, it is definitely NOT a philosophy I will be adopting an time soon. I've talked to plenty of women who work in semi-conservative offices, my office included, who feel they are constantly repeating outfits and get bored of dressing for their 9am-5pm {or more like 7:45am-5:30pm because who really has the 9-5 schedule?! If you do, my envy is strong}. That feeling of boredom and/or frustrations doesn't have to be the case though!

I've said it before, white has never been my go-to color, but for some reason I cannot get enough of it at the moment! I love the fact that it can look so crisp and put together without be too pretentious. While this is definitely not an outfit for just anywhere (can you imagine how well it would work for a chips, salsa, and Red Sangria afternoon!? Yikes!), it's a great option for many occasions.
Memorial Day Weekend is for remembering our Heroes & loved ones, spending time with family & friends, relaxing on the patio with fruity beverages, and enjoying the 3 day weekend. MDW is also a great time for SALES and almost every retailer is running some sort of deal, special, or promotion! I've rounded up a handful of my favorites including some must-have items from each spot! Have a safe & fun weekend :)
What girl doesn't love a fun, flirty swing dress?! Especially one that just as easily be worn to work as it can be on a girl's night out?! The minute I saw this print I knew I that I would be able to wear this on multiple occasions and it's now on sale for 30% off on the BCBG website. After wearing the dress for the first time on Easter, the weather finally let me bring it back out. To make it more subdued for work, I added a thin, powder pink cardigan and round-toed nude pumps, but took off the sweater and swapped the pumps for a pair of fun sandals for after work cocktails on the patio. The material of the dress is incredibly comfortable while the 7% spandex adds a bit of movement and bounce when you walk. I'm not a huge accessories girl but this pink Kendra Scott necklace I am obsessed with and is on constant repeat; I have been wearing it with anything and everything!
If you love fashion and haven't been living under a rock for the last 36 hours or so, you're well aware of the fabulous Half Yearly Sale going on now at Nordstrom! This is one of my FAVORITE sales of the year and it runs through May 31. Tons of great items are already Out of Stock or down to only a few (mainly larger) sizes, so be sure to grab anything and everything you may need. Nordstrom is the best because they offer free shipping both ways, so if something doesn't work you can simply send it back at no charge! I've already placed my order (ahhh, ok maybe 2 but DON'T TELL!) and am debating on a few more items. Many brands and items are on sale that rarely are, like these amazing pumps, this bag, this quilted jacket, and these sunnies. So now is your time to splurge yet save! I've stocked up on nearly every color of this tank and a few of these amazing work blouses. Happy Shopping!!!
