What I Wore: A Shirt Dress Styled Two Ways

Have you added a shirt dress to your closet yet? I own a couple of sporty tee-shirt dresses but this button-up shirt dress c/o Caite & Kyla is so elevated and loaded with possibilities. You're going to love the gorgeous detailing on this beautiful piece. As for the weight and feel, you will have to trust me when I say it's sublimely soft and comfortable. With the snap-up feature, you now have a trench-style layering piece. Don't you love the beauty of versatility?

Now, this is a Caite & Kyla piece so you know there's going to be embroidery details. This particular design is swoon-worthy. The raw edge hem is around the bottom, on the sleeves, and around the neckline. I wore the dress to church one morning with short block heels and a lacy scarf but switched those shoes for the sneakers pictured here by evening.

From Shirt Dress to Jacket

For the second look, I styled last week's runway style leggings from WHBM with an old dressy tank shopped from the closet. There's a multitude of colors to pull from the embroidery so I went with green, burgundy, and blush. This look gives me all the boho feels that I'm so at home in.

Speaking of blush, I have enough accessories in this color to add to my accessory "set" list. When I'm in a hurry I know this hat, these shoes, the purse, earrings, and even some bracelets are easily styled together. It worked perfectly in this instance.

My photographer and best friend

By the way, we will celebrate twenty-one years of marriage this Thursday! This guy will lay on the ground, climb up on ledges, and sweat in the Florida heat to take some fun angles. I sure do appreciate him for so many things, but this goes above and beyond!

Have a wonderful week!

What I Wore: Prints & Matching Accessories

What do you do when you can't get enough of a fashion piece? You wear it again and again, and when possible get creative on how you style it! In fact, a few weeks ago I shared a post on layering dresses, and last week I shared this very dress HERE. And without intending to share more layering inspiration, I'm back once again. Perhaps it's because I know any day the oppressive heat will return to South Florida, leaving all traces of layering behind.

So layer on and let's begin with the new spring dress c/o Love Kyla, layered with the soft sweater c/o XCVI. The organizer purse was purchased during Caite Clothing's Christmas sale. And this hat you see on repeat is from Amazon. Everything else is closet-shopped my friends...

Style Takeaway

This week's style takeaway is a simple application of matching belts to wrist candy, and in this case the necklace as well. Somehow it brought it all together. Also, throw in a pop of color with the purse or the shoes! Oh, and don't be afraid to use an eyeglass chain, they are here for everyone. ;)

What's Up On Social Media

Do you grow weary of wondering what's going to be for dinner or shopping for what's going to be for dinner? Last week I began to share about Blue Ribbon Foods, a farm-to-table, stock-your-freezer, customizable food service delivered to your door...or freezer. And yes, they'll provide you with a freezer to house all those goodies and ensure the food. Oh,, the goodness - you can taste the freshness in every bite. Hop over HERE to request info to see if this a good fit for you and your family. I feel a blog post coming here soon!

Also, I shared my latest love in skincare on the gram as well HERE. From the creator to the impacting products, I'm beyond impressed. I'll be sharing that on the blog soon as well.

My desire to learn more about health and share what I learn continues. If you aren't already following me on Instagram, you can find me HERE.
