Here we are almost at the end of April already. This is a big time of the year for weddings. Whether you have already received an invitation or you know one is on the way, it's not too soon to start thinking about what you'll wear. And with allowing enough time, you'll be able to catch some sales as well. I've linked below some great dresses and accessories to help you look fabulous at your next event.
This cute party dress is just right for an afternoon wedding in the Summer. Complete with striking soutache trim on the skirt. Add some great shoes and jewelry to really make it pop. It's great because you can add a jacket on top to wear at a holiday party when the weather is cooler.
This lace dress is so elegant. A layer of metallic-enhanced lace adds another dimension to this sheath dress from Adrianna Papell. The draped sleeves are finished with delicate rhinestone trim at the cuffs.
A more simpler but classic dress great for a wedding but you can wear it for date night out or on vacation.
A great sheath dress is always in style. A chic keyhole neckline and strategically placed color blocking underscores the polished appeal of this sleeveless sheath dress.
This dress is so cute. A jersey-knit dress that can easily transition from day to night. It features a stylish asymmetric twist-front and fluttery split sleeves. You'll get many uses from this great style.
A romantic modern look to this fit-and-flare dress that you can dress up or down depending on your accessories. Classic styling for a timeless look.
This flowing floral is perfect for a more informal Summer wedding. Styled with a surplice neckline and beautifully ruffled hem. Honestly, I don't like the dark shoes with it, I would go with a more neutral shoe and bag. Will link some at the end of this post.
Going to a wedding in the middle of the hot steamy Summer? This is the perfect little dress. Cool with short flutter sleeves and will be smashing with the just the right amount of sparkle added to it.
Another romantic floral in a maxi style. Shimmery floral print with a high halter neckline shows off your shoulders and creates a perfect A-line silhouette.
This one is dreamy. Soft, airy ruffles cascade against a pretty print on a faux-wrap dress with a high-low hem. Shown in a Sage color but also available in a delicate Blush.
Every dress needs the perfect shoes. I've linked some here that will compliment most of these dresses.
This great Summer dress sandal comes in several different colors from black to neutral to silver. This shoe has great reviews and is under $80.00. A shoe you can wear throughout the season.
This pretty little shoe adds some sparkle to any dress.
Cutest strappy design. Comes in a couple different colors and has the perfect heel size for comfort and styling. Currently on sale under $60.00
This cute platinum clutch comes with a strap and is perfect with all these dresses. Under $35.00 you will use this bag with so many things.

What to Wear to Work in the Spring & Fall April 16, 2019 14:53
Spring and Fall are two gorgeous seasons, but can sometimes make getting dressed in the morning a little tricky. You wake up and head out to work and it's 40 degrees, by lunchtime it's 65 and you realize what you wore wasn't the best choice. The best piece is a good ole cardigan. Cardigans are a must have fashion staple. You can get three out of the four season with a cardigan. In the Winter layer with a turtleneck or sweater underneath for warmth and in the Spring and Fall wear in the morning over a blouse, sheath dress, or short sleeve top.

Another beautiful stripe and gorgeous color combination. This one is cotton and I think would be great for a cruise, as well as the office or date night.
Ride the rainbow with this fun sherbet color cardigan. A great cardigan to brighten up your outfit. Open front lightweight knit with vertical stripes down the lapel and horizontal stripes throughout the bodice. Under $20.00 and will go with absolutely everything!

Don't be afraid of being different..... April 3, 2019 13:34
Many people are afraid of what others may think of them, so they opt for trying to be the same as everyone else. It takes confidence and courage to go by the beat of your own drum. We don't want to be singled out and looked at differently. But my question is....WHY?
If every person on the planet was the same, the world would be a very boring place. If everyone had the same hair, wore the same clothes and had the same style, it would look like something out of a sci-fi movie.
We were all born with something unique and special, so why not show it?! Let go of the fear of being different and show the world YOUR style and who you truly are. Push yourself to stand out and shine!
