I know I can't be the only one who goes through nearly everything in her closet when I'm trying to find something to wear... Especially during the holidays when it's fun to dress up! Whether it be for a holiday party, Christmas day or anything else this season, there are so many fun ways to style an outfit and be holiday ready. And whether you're getting dressed up or staying more casual, you can still look *super* cute doing it! These five outfits are easy to mix and match pieces with and are perfect for all holiday season long, but beyond that too:
One of the many trends of the summer (that's been around a while, I know): shirtdresses! I love the way they look - short sleeved, sleeveless, 3/4 sleeves; they're so flattering and there's so many styles that everyone looks good in them. I love the way they look with wedges the most. Shirt dresses paired with wedges is one of the classiest looks for summer and it can easily be a fun day outfit turned classy night look. I love the classic styles just as much as the newest designs with patterns, different sleeve lengths and embellishments. When a shirt dress can look feminine, you know it's an asset to your closet! During the spring and summer shows at NYFW 2016, there were so many shirt dresses and I knew they were going to be a hit again this season. Here are some of my favorites and how I'd style them:
There is nothing I love more than the beautiful spring weather and the cute clothes there are for spring! I think this is the best time of year to dress cutely because it isn't too hot or too cold and there are so many possibilities. Playing with colors, mix and matching patterns and trying new trends are the best part of outfit styling and there's no better feeling than finding a piece that you know will be timeless in your wardrobe! Spring is in full swing and it's time for some new outfit inspo to say the least!
Here are some of my favorites:
For both Spring and Summer, I put together some of my favorite looks for the season(s) as inspiration both for myself and for you guys. I had to do the same for Fall since warm sweaters, a cute vest and boots are my favorite things to wear!! Summer is by far my favorite season, but nothing compares to Fall clothes and the colors of Autumn. It's still been fairly warm (but beautiful) here, but I'm definitely starting to be able to feel in the air that Fall is just around the corner and it's making me so excited! I love everything about Fall - especially the clothes I've been buying for the season!
Here's my favorite looks for this season that I've put together so far:
There's absolutely nothing I love and think about more than long, hazy summer days. Living in New York, we unfortunately only get this kind of weather for a few months and trust me when I tell you I soak up every bit of sunshine that I can! There's so many things to do in the summer time and outfit planning in the summer is so much fun. This is the time of year that I love to plan outfits and mix and match colors and patterns. A few months ago, I shared a similar post detailing my favorite springtime looks and had a great response so I figured I would do something similar with summer outfits!
Here's some of my go-to outfit inspirations:
Running Errands:
Striped tee// Sunglasses// Bracelet (similar)// Tory Burch tote// Denim capris// Tory Burch Miller sandals// Kendra Scott earrings
Plaid shirt (under $10!!)// Statement earrings// Cuff bracelet// Urban Decay eye shadow// Essie nail polish// Reversible tote (under $50!)// Tory Burch sandals// Sunglasses// Kendra Scott ring// White denim shorts
Depending on the time of day I'm running my errands, I can sometimes still get away with wearing capris before it gets too hot - which I love! I could live in crop jeans. These looks could just as easily be worn for anything you do during the day! I try to change up my outfits as much as possible because I have way more summery outfits than I do summer days!
A day by the pool:
Cover up tank// Ray-bans// Floppy straw hat// Striped beach towel// Kendra Scott cuff// Tory Burch sandals// American Eagle denim shorts// Beach tote// VS Bikini
Shopping Day:
Tory Burch tote// Kendra Scott Druzy earrings// JCrew marbled tee// YSL #8// American Eagle denim shorts// Tory Burch Miller sandals// Kendra Scott ring// Sunglasses// Essie "Saltwater Happy" David Yurman bracelet (1)// David Yurman bracelet (2)
White tee// Tory Burch sandals// Michael Kors watch// Reversible tote// Sunglasses// AE crop denim
If you couldn't already tell, shopping days are my favorite! I try and make these days ones that it's raining or not great weather to do things outdoors! I always use a tote as my bag when I go shopping - even though it's an annoyance to carry around, I have a much greater chance of loosing a small wristlet or just my wallet! I also like to have a water with me and put smaller bags in if I don't want to carry them.
Out to dinner:
Pink linen sun dress// Kendra Scott bracelet (1)// Kendra Scott bracelet (2)// Urban Decay lip gloss// Kendra Scott ring// Tory Burch wedges// Michael Kors watch// Kate Spade tote
Michele watch// JCrew linen tee// Kendra Scott statement necklace// Kendra Scott earrings// Essie "Blossom Dandy"// Rebecca Minkoff crossbody// Kendra Scott cuff bracelet// Tory Burch wedges// JCrew colorful shorts
I go out to dinner a lot in the summer and depending on the restaurant, I love dressing up an outfit! I also love switching it up from using a tote or a cross-body - I love the way a dressed up shorts outfit looks with wedges and a cross-body and also think a cute sun dress with a larger tote looks gorgeous together! You can never have too many sundresses for summer; they're also very easy to dress down for a casual look or dress up for a dressier evening look!
Workout gear:
VS Tank// Lilly Pulitzer tumbler// VS sports bra// VS yoga shorts// Nike Roshe
Duffle gym bag// VS tank// VS yoga capris// VS Pink water bottle// VSX sports bra// Fitbit Flex
If I'm going to work out, I'm gonna look cute doing it! I get any kind of workout gear from Lululemon and Victoria's Secret. I've been shopping mostly at VS for workout clothes lately because I love their PINK workout gear and their newer VSX line! These clothes are so comfy and you can easily mix and match these racerback tanks with shorts for the beach or the yogas for a day of relaxation. My FitBit is also an every day essential, especially for working out. I love wearing it all the time, but I never have liked the way it looks on my wrist if I'm going somewhere that I wear nicer jewelry to. Well thank god for Tory Burch as usual - her variations and styles that you can make your FitBit look adorable on your wrist!
Summer party/event:
Navy shift dress// Kendra Scott Rayne necklace// Rebecca Minkoff clutch// RayBans// Kendra Scott ring// Michele watch// Wedges
Silk chiffon summer sundress// Rebecca Minkoff clutch// Essie "Picked Perfect"// Kendra Scott bracelet// Alex & Ani (1)// Alex & Ani (2)// Alex & Ani (3)// Alex & Ani (4)// Pearl stud earrings// Lace wedges// Michael Kors watch
Summer is also a time with lots of parties, events and weddings that you need cute outfits for! Shift dresses are so in style now and there's so many cute ones in different colors and patterns that are perfect for summer events. I also love a good arm party as you can tell with all of my bracelet picks!!
