Floral Abundance

Floral Abundance

I think it’s safe to say my heart flutters just a bit faster when spotting a fabulous floral frock that not only blends together beautifully with pastel and vibrant shades, but also has sleeves. Now, one might not be thinking about sleeves currently, but they sure do come in handy on cool spring days and late summer evenings transitioning into early fall.

Button Front Print Dress

Blue Print Button Front Dress || Yellow Heeled Sandals || Sunglasses || Wicker Bag || Pearl Bracelet ||

One color combo I cannot get enough of this summer is blue and yellow. I'm absolutely in love with them! This button front dress has beautiful bow ties at the shoulders (adjustable, I re-tied mine to make it tighter), pockets!, and a gorgeous toile print comprised of birds, flamingos, and peacocks. This dress is flawless for summer and has a very easy breezy vibe about it. I paired my yellow twist knot sandals and wicker bag to complete the look. The length is very modest and could be worn to work, possibly with a cardigan if you need to cover your shoulders. The buttons are for decoration only, which I liked. No gaping in between! This is one look I could live in all summer long.

Anchors Aweigh

 Pearl Skirt c/o || Red Striped Top || Similar Seer Sucker Blazer (Old, Banana Republic) || Similar White Sandals || Sunglasses || Wicker Bag || DW Rose Gold Watch c/o ||  

Good morning and welcome to the new week! I hope everyone had a fabulous weekend. We had a great one celebrating my future sister-in-laws birthday this past Saturday. It was a lot of fun! We went to Texas Roadhouse for dinner and then did some shopping together. My brother was a good sport during the shopping too, haha. 

Oh how I love a good nautical look! I basically have two fashion styles that I stick pretty close to. One being romantic whimsy and the other nautical. This look started with the pearl beaded flounce skirt and was built around that. The detailing is unequivocally feminine and very lady like. The pearls are so darling! I’m wearing a size small for reference. This seersucker blazer from Banana Republic has been a staple item in my closet for years. I pull it out every spring and summer and never tire of it. It’s a classic piece stands the test of time. This pink and blush versions are a fun twist on the traditional blue. I found a similar one to mine here that is sure to be a go-to for anything from dressing up a simple white tee and jeans to creating your own nautical chic ensemble!

Pink and Teal Flare

My last day in D.C. was spent at the National Harbor, which is such a cute to visit! Lots of little shops (South Moon Under, one of my fave's!) and restaurants line the streets, while the harbor has a ferris wheel, boating, and one of the most amazing hotels I've seen. It's actually the convention center, but wow, the inside was breathtaking. I have some more photos of it below. It's where these photos were taken. The one wall is all windows looking out upon the harbor. Quite a site to see! There is even a little village set up on the ground floor.

This skirt is actually part of a matching set with a crop top, but I decided to switch it out for a bright pop of color with this swing top. The teal really makes a statement while the skirt has that effortless swish I love so much. Plus, I mean hello, pink! I adore how the skirt has a vintage feel to it that simply makes me smile. That's one of the great things about having an outfit that comes as a set, you can switch out the pieces for multiple looks.

I hope everyone had a great weekend!
