Fashion Friday: Edition back to reality

Caroline and I went on a little mother/daughter trip this week and spent some time shopping, at the spa and by the pool. In other words, our ultimate trifecta of fun and relaxation. For all the years I spent treading water in the deep end of the pool while she jumped on my head from the diving board, it has paid off in the form of a person who know enjoys reading books poolside with her mother. What a time to be alive.

Here are some cute things I found this week:

1. small town summer light wash denim dress

This dress totally feels like a throwback. In fact, I may have owned this exact dress circa 1988. But here we are…back again. And I actually think it’s cute.

It’s $52.

2. hidden treasure handbag

This is such a pretty little handbag that looks much more expensive than $42.

It also comes in blush or white.

3. it’s so simple top

This is the perfect top to wear with higher waisted pants or skirts. It’s elastic at the bottom so it gives the look of a tuck in without a tuck in. That’s a win.

It’s $36 and comes in several color options.

4. knox rose floral print dress

This is the cutest dress. Love the bright color and it’s just $34.99.

5. ruffled eyelet top

I realize we aren’t even to July yet, but at this point in the summer I start looking at clothes that I could transition to the hot Texas fall. This top is one of those things.

It’s $98 and comes in several colors.

6. pilcro tiered tunic blouse

Listen. I love a tunic blouse. I just do. They work for me. I love them with skinny jeans, I love them with flares. I like them in the rain, I like them on a train.

This top is $118. It comes in several color options.

7. nike court legacy canvas sneakers

I think these are just about the cutest sneakers. They’re on sale for $46.97.

They also come in all white or black, but this pink owns me.

8. loft striped long kimono

This darling kimono is $59.50 but 30% off through Sunday with code SOGOOD at checkout. This would be so cute over all white. Or over a simple dress. Or even worn as a swimsuit coverup.

9. loft beach striped flounce v-neck swimsuit coverup

This is $89.50 but 30% off with code SOGOOD at checkout. I love a swimsuit coverup that looks like an actual piece of clothing that you can wear out and about. And I learned after packing for our vacation this week that I tend to keep a coverup for a long time so it’s worth the investment.

10. aerosole dada wedge sandals

Sophie originally told me about these sandals and I was immediately intrigued. I love the gold, I love the way they look and I love that they have a platform heel that gives me some height. They look great with everything from cut off denim shorts to dresses. They are $110 but you can get 15% off if you sign up for emails.

They also come in black or soft white.

That’s it for today.

Have a good Friday.
