Put Some Swing in Your Step

Let's get some swing spring in our step with pleated skirts. Not just a pin tuck or box pleat, I'm going all out with an accordion pleated skirt. This shape works for any size and it's flattering for work or play.

Can we have a moment for a hunter green mini? So unusual and I'm loving it.

The accordion pleat is really beautiful for the breezy and sunny days in our future. Spring is coming, right mother nature? Ok, good.

Bow Down to the Bow

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I hope you had a lovely weekend. It snowed for a minute here in DC and it was just not ok. I'm ready for sunshine, shorts, and flowers. I'm ready for spring. Until we get there I am embracing pastels and things that remind me of spring. Today, I'm thinking bows. They are feminine, light, and a fun addition to any top.

Loft, Floral Charm Bow Neck Blouse, $59 $36! Extra 40% off right now!

Starting off strong with this beautiful print and a style that will work with jeans or a pencil skirt.

Chicnova, Christmas Chest Bow Tie Tank, $18

While I hate the name of this blouse, I love the blouse. I'd rough it up and pair it with a distressed denim or a leather jacket.

Nordstrom, Topshop Floral Print Bow Blouse, $70

A beautiful piece for right now. Floral but long-sleeved and the colors aren't Easter egg-ish.

Asos, The Laden Showroom X Even Vintage Bow Sleeve Fitted Top, $81

I love the shape of this blouse. It is quite unique and the color is perfect for any style.

When you think bows do you think pretty, pretty, princess and rainbows? Right. Bows have been updated to fit a mature wardrobe and you can add your own spin on things with accessories.

Drop it Like it's Shoulder

Let's stick with the comfortable style trend we started yesterday and look at some soft tees. More specifically, let's look at a trend that is casual and relaxed: the drop shoulder. Such a simple detail that changes the entire look of the top.

Shopbop, BB Dakota Hannelore Shirt, $80

This shirt may look slubby at first glance, but try it on. It's swingy and turn around for a breezy surprise. A discreet back slit.

JCrew Factory, Colorblock Drop Shoulder Tee, $24

Peachy, huh? I like the combination of navy with this not in-your-face orange.

ChicNova, Split Joint Curved Hem T-Shirt, $13

Something simple that is effortless as is or dress it up with a great statement necklace. 

Joe Fresh, Oversized Stripe Tee in Black, $29

A slouchy tee with a nice update. As you can see, this drop shoulder option pairs perfectly with a pencil skirt and heels.

The drop shoulder trend is a nice departure form the form fitting scuba trends or crop tops. It reminds me of the cool girl at the party that walks in and looks like she 'just threw this on' and looks incredible.

Zebra Crossing

Animal prints. They're awesome, you've you your leopard, your cheetah, your cow- ok maybe no cow. You've also got your zebra. Instead of an allover zebra print, I thought we'd let the animal itself make an appearance. Check it out.

Macy's, Zebra Print Button Front Shirt, $35

Oh hey there zebra! A pop of orange and some roll tap sleeves. Fall perfection.

Barney's Warehouse, Printed Village Zebra Crossing Print Scarf, $29

Originally $100. $100! This lightweight scarf is great with a white tee and bf jeans or tie it to your purse for a pop of print.

Chicnova, Casual Colored Zebra Printing Long Sleeve Blouse, $18

These zebras are rainbow colored!!! This makes me ridiculously happy.

Lord and Taylor, Zebra Pullover Top, $89

Hi there, just a casual zebra checking in.

Who needs an allover print when this animal is just so lovable? Blouses, sweaters, and accessories, I'm all about the zebra.
