Nantucket
I'm so happy that it is Memorial Day Weekend!! The temps are heating up, the sun is shining, and this blogger is ready to hang out. I love jacket/moderately warm weather. The type of weather that makes you sing "A Long Walk" by Jill Scott as you cruise around with a boo, or just chill at a waterfront bar and chat about nothing. When I saw this Fashion to Figure dress, it had me dreaming of all the lovely spots I can attend afterwork and on the weekend and look amazing.
The Nantucket dress is a great piece to add to your wardrobe. It's lightweight and made of a nice soft material that can easily take you from work to happy hour. The stripe placement makes a statement, and you can never go wrong with a fit & flare. A dress like this is my go to when I am getting ready for work. I always want to make an impact, while still keeping it cute and above all else - to be comfortable. Dresses like these are versatile, you can wear it with so many things and make each look your own. I went with a pair of flatforms from Mango, but you can wear these with a killer heel or a pair of Stan Smith's and still slay.
I have been looking for the right pair of flatforms for a while, and when I browsing for shoes on Fullbeauty's site, and saw these, they were immediately added to the cart. I wanted a pair that were multifunctional- the one's I would come across were too casual to wear to work, or too over the top. These I feel are a perfect balance of pretty and casual. I can wear these with dresses, jeans, practically anything in my wardrobe. Navy pairs well with everything, so I have now found my new summer shoe. I wore these all day and not once did I want to take them off. Added bonus, the 2.75 platform gives me a little height (owwww). You have been warned, I will be wearing these a lot.
Cute dress- check, cute shoes- double check. Only thing left is a nice statement necklace, and a handbag. For work, I like to carry something that can hold all my essentials. This Dooney & Bourke handbag has been in my arsenal for years, and it continues to look good throughout the season. Definitely make sure you have a navy bag. It goes with everything like a black bag, but it gives a pop of color with other neutrals or can be the neutral when wearing color. Well now that I am all dressed to enjoy the beautiful weather, I want to hear from you. What are you planning to wear now that the unofficial start of summer is here?
