Spell & The Gypsy Collective Love Story Boho Dress (also here and here)

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

Dolce Vita Prym Lace-Up Boots

 

I have a slight obsession (ok, it's major) with Spell & The Gypsy Collective's 'Boho Dress'.  Anytime Spell launches a new collection, it's always the first thing I look for.  I love the flowy fit, effortless vibe and the fact that they're just so beautiful!  The 'Boho Dress' is supposed to be a midi fit, but I'm so petite that they end up being a maxi dress on me, which I actually prefer.  

 

I love the sky blue colour of this Love Story Boho Dress from the 'Star Crossed Lovers' collection.  The beautiful floral print is also available in a midi robe and a blouse!  (I also purchased the Love Story Blouse in Red Coral, which I'll share on the blog soon!)  I prefer wearing the boho dress with a pair of sandals, usually a wedge sandal, but I wore it with a pair of Dolce Vita lace-up boots because it was cool out.  (I'd also wear this dress with a pair of white vans for running errands!)

stardust

LoveShackFancy Roslyn Cotton Printed Midi Dress

Lack of Color Stardust Rancher

I am obsessed with this LoveShackFancy dress!  It looks fancy but doesn't feel fancy, which is what you want in a summer dress.  It is SO comfortable to wear and feels SO effortless!  It even has pockets!  You could wear this dress to the beach and then out to dinner.  I was hesitant buying this dress because it is December, but it's currently 55% off at Bloomingdale's!  I've been coveting this stunning floral dress since I first saw it on the LoveShackFancy site and knew I would regret it if I didn't grab it.

Thankfully, we have been spoiled with the weather over the past week or so and I was able to actually wear this gorgeous dress.  I paired it with my new Lack of Color Stardust Rancher, which I have been wearing with everything lately.  I have been wearing LOC hats for years and I have been hoping that they would make a pink hat, specifically in the rancher style, which is my favourite style.  They came out with the Rose Rancher a little while ago, but rose doesn't go with my complexion (even though I continue to purchase rose-coloured tops and sweaters).  I love pairing colours together so it was a no-brainer for me to pair the pink hat with this blue-but-looks-kind-of-purple dress.  The pink hat also brings out the delicate pink flowers in the dress.  I couldn't help but twirl around in this dress!

There are so many great dresses currently on sale at Bloomingdale's, from summery dresses to dresses you could wear now.  I love the effortlessness of this ba&sh floral dress, which comes in 2 colours and I love that you can wear it off-the-shoulder.  This Zadig & Voltaire velvet dress or this Maje floral dress would be great for the holidays.  Same with this ALLSAINTS ruffled mini dress, which is 60% off!  This Rebecca Taylor La Vie Mixed Print Dress and this Parker Lillie Printed Cutout Dress are gorgeous!  This French Connection floral dress is under $60!

I'll be posting more of my picks from the Bloomingdale's sale on Friday!

Happy shopping!

friday find: 40% off

 

Anthropologie Brianna Embellished Sweatshirt 

 Happy Friday!  There have been many great sales recently, but this weekend is a big one - 40% off all clothing at Anthropologie!  I scooped up this embellished sweatshirt that looks comfy but is not your typical sweatshirt.  I love the (faux) pearl details!  If you're looking for a gift for under $50, this would make a great one!  I also scooped up some socks, including these fair isle over-the-knee socks, which would also make a great gift.

Some of my other picks include this pretty and 'oh-so-cozy' sweater, this 'extra-long, extra-cozy' cardigan and these AG velvet skinny jeans (available in petite sizes!), which I own and highly recommend.  This matching set (sweater and joggers sold separately) looks super cozy!

I love 'winter white' so I'm loving the look of this fuzzy jacket.  I love the details on this kimono jacket!  This velvet kimono jacket is so pretty.  If you're looking for a cozy jacket, this Vero Moda faux fur shirt jacket is currently under $65 and this BLANKNYC ombre faux fur jacket looks so fun!

 

Happy (sale) shopping!

sequin knit sweater

 

ZARA Limited Edition Sequin Knit Sweater

AGOLDE Parker Vintage Cut Off Short

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

As soon as I saw this ZARA sequin knit sweater, I fell in love.  Everything about it - the sequins, the ruffled sleeves... it feels festive, but you can wear it casually.  I paired it with cutoffs and sneakers.  I love how lightweight it is, which is perfect for the weather we've been having here in Florida.  I was worried it would be too cropped (why are all the tops so cropped this year?), but the length is perfect with something high-waisted, if you're like me and not wanting to show your stomach.  Next, I'll be pairing this pretty sweater with high-waisted skinny jeans and booties!

Happy shopping!

golden sale

 

Spell & The Gypsy Collective Jesse Jane Cropped Blouse (also here and here)

AGOLDE Parker Vintage Cut Off Short

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

Shopbop is currently having an amazing sale (up to 70% off!), which ends tomorrow at midnight.  This pretty Spell & The Gypsy Collective Jesse Jane Cropped Blouse is 55% off!  I purchased this blouse a month (or two?) ago when I was looking for something for fall, but lightweight enough to wear at the time because it was still quite warm out.  I love that you could wear it off-the-shoulder.  I paired the pretty blouse with my go-to AGOLDE shorts, but now that it's cooled down here in Florida, I'll be pairing this blouse with these Madewell high-rise skinny jeans I scored at the sale and a cardigan (I'm eyeing this floral For Love & Lemons one).

 

There are some other great Spell items for sale, like this Spell blouse and this Spell tunic dress.  I've been eyeing this floral ROTATE dress and this floral Warm blouse.  I love the details on this Rails sweater and this Free People tunic looks cozy AF.  If you have smaller feet, there are a couple of sizes left of these black Isabel Marant boots.  The Madewell jeans I've tagged above are on the darker side but, if you're looking for a lighter wash, these Frame straight jeans and these Levi's 501 skinny jeans are also on sale.  If you're looking for a pair of black jeans, these J Brand high rise jeans are over 60% off!  If you're in need of a jacket, this Alpha Industries sherpa flight jacket is reversible and looks super cozy!  This faux fur trucker jacket from Theory and this one by OOF look especially cozy.

I love scooping up sandals during the winter months because they are usually on clearance, especially now that I live in the South and it warms up in a couple of months.  I'm eyeing these See by Chloe wedge espadrilles or these denim ones.

Happy (sale) shopping!

flower fields floral dress

Free People Flower Fields Mini Dress

Lack of Color Zulu Rancher

I used to wear loungewear to drop my kids off at school in the mornings and now that they're doing online learning, I'm in loungewear pretty much all day.  So now when I have to pick up materials at the school, I find myself dressing up.  This Free People Flower Fields Mini Dress is great for Florida's unpredictable weather... it's lightweight but the long-sleeves keep you warm when it cools down.  (Add a cardigan or jacket and boots for extra warmth!)  The floral print is so pretty and the emerald colour makes it festive, perfect for the holidays.

Happy shopping!
