What to wear this Memorial Day weekend

Hello, loves! May 27th is quickly approaching, and you know what that means: Memorial Day!   

If you’re feeling festive during this three-day weekend, there are three main (and obvious) colors that you should focus on wearing: Red, white, and blue.

Of course, another festive option is wearing a print of the American flag. This shirt from Forever 21 is a great and affordable example:

 

I feel like this tank top is an effortless way of showing your spirit this Memorial Day. It works well with a variety of different things, like a pair of jean shorts (which you’ll probably want to be wearing this time of year!)

Speaking of jean shorts, here’s another item from Forever 21 that is a great idea for Memorial Day attire:

Like it shows in the image, a pair of red high heels would look fantastic with a pair of shorts with an American flag print. In fact, any pair of sexy heels could really go along well with a pair of shorts. I’m really infatuated with this pair of red heels with an edgy twist:

However, some high heels aren’t appropriate for all Memorial Day weekend events. Walking around a backyard in a pair of heels can become a little frustrating. For a more casual and comfortable look, I would recommend these incredible white gladiator sandals by Aldo:

Of course, dresses are absolutely acceptable and are actually encouraged. Sundresses make a great idea, especially if you’re trying to stay cool. Last but not least is this unbelievably beautiful sundress from Free People. I almost fell out of my chair when I saw it.

So there you have it! These are a few ideas on what to wear this Memorial Day weekend. What do you think? Comment and let me know! Xoxo

Crop Tops

Hello loves! It’s almost summer, which means one major thing: new summer clothes! Right now, I’m really obsessed with the crop top look. You might also see these tops called “bra tops”, even though they’re not bras. I think this look is adorable! You can wear a cropped shirt with anything that has a high waist, like a skirt or a pair of shorts.  It’s a versatile look that can be mixed and matched with anything. One of my favorite summertime looks is a cropped jean top, a solid-colored skirt, and a plaid button-up.

Crop tops are great because you can cover them up quickly with a statement layering piece. They’re perfect for the summer because they are sure to keep you cool.

Here are a few crop tops (or bra tops) that I’m absolutely in love with:

Out From Under Zip-Up Denim Bra Top

Ecote Embellished Mirror Bra Top

Pins And Needles Sweetheart Lace Cropped Top

Here’s one way to wear a crop top:

Shirt: Mango

Skirt: Sally

Plaid shirt: BKE

Sunglasses and shoes: Urban Outfitters

What do you guys think? Will you be wearing crop tops this summer? Comment and let me know!

As new fun and flirty spring and summer dresses come out, what could be better than adding some extra sex appeal with a cutout detail here or there or an area that is sheer.  This spring’s trend of cutouts, seen all over the runways, is showing up in so many beautiful spring dress designs. I  love anything with a little extra detailing, so when I read about this trend, I went on a hunt for some of the cutest cutout dresses out there!

Fierce Florals

{Think Lauren-Conrad’s-blazer-type-of-floral}

When it comes to predicting springtime fashion trends, one sure bet every year is floral prints. I mean it makes sense…after a winter season filled with rich, dark colors, most fashionistas are itching to get back into bright flirty colors. This spring, the traditional “it looks like your grandmother’s wallpaper” floral print has been turned up a notch, and featured bolder colors and more modern, “watercolor-esque” designs.

Check out some of my favorite fierce floral pieces!

Topshop Floral Print Sweater

Stella McCartney Floral Print Shorts

Milly ‘Ivy’ Cotton Blend Sheath Dress

BB DAKOTA Watercolor Print Pleated Top

Forever 21 Watercolor Pants

JCrew Liberty Perfect shirt in Tresco floral

Sabo Skirt Ink Island Blazer

What do you think about these fierce floral pieces? Will you be wearing this trend in the spring? Comment and let me know!
