As much as I love summer, in Texas it can be brutal, so I'm ready for a change.<br />
Luckily fall is around the corner so its time to start re-organzing the closet and transitioning from summer to fall. I've already been going nonstop on getting new pieces for fall<br />
(like these <a href="http://rstyle.me/~8ICML" target="_blank">over the knee boots</a> or the best <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwh8ydbpt2f" target="_blank">suede moto jacket</a>) but<br />
since it's still technically summer, I'm incorporating both into my outfits now.<br />
This green jacket I'm wearing is old so I'm thinking about updating it for a new one like this <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bxre65bpt2f" target="_blank">soft oversized utility jacket</a> by one of my favorite brands or this <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bxy7vhbpt2f" target="_blank">fitted military anorak</a> style.<br />
I love that this style jacket (which is light weight) can be paired with denim shorts for the summer and transition into fall by pairing with a skinny jeans or a dress with leggings. Plus the color is perfect.<br />
Also, one of my favorite ways to wear ankle boots/booties are with shorts or a dress.<br />
I like that it gives your look a boost from casual chill mode to appearing a little more put together.<br />
I plan on wearing the same way even in the fall but would probably incorporate tights when the temperatures are cooler. For a summer to fall transition,<br />
this is a go-to look that merges both seasonal pieces as well as color tones.<br />

Summer is getting ready to be over soon and although I'm prepping for fall, I'm making a strong effort to wear those summer pieces out but they get pushed to the back of the closet.<br />
This is also that time I'm doing a refresh on my wardrobe pieces and debating on what needs to stay or go. With the season changing, I try to think about what I didn't give enough love to and reasons why, because more than likely it shouldn't continue to take up space for the next season/year if I didn't commit enough this season. Plus, lets be honest, I'm also just running out of room in my wardrobe after incorporating new fall goodies. I hope to build a more capsule wardrobe where I truly have staple pieces I love to wear on repeat, but my problem is having too many favorites.<br />
I'm a "million of everything" type of girl. I love having the same style of something in every color.<br />
For example, I have this bag in this color and <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bxwz7zbpt2f" target="_blank">the rust color</a>.<br />
I also have <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bxwrhhbpt2f" target="_blank">these lace-up flats</a> in seven colors/prints. <i>(Obviously my favorite flat!)</i><br />

I guess you can say I'm indecisive, but I've been trying to make better efforts on building a wardrobe that has maximizing results. Right now for me I no longer work in the "corporate world" so I've been working on changing it up a bit from a closet full of work dresses, blazers, skirts, and pants...<br />
to a more casual everyday wardrobe that I wear more often.<br />
Those work pieces are still in my closet for just in case occasions <i>(plus I love workwear looks)</i>, however I don't need a whole closet full now, when my casual pieces are very limited.<br />
I would love to one day share a closet reveal and discuss my wardrobe choices but let me keep working on it. <u>Is that something y'all would like to see on the blog?</u><br />
I always love feedback on how to make this space a better inspiration to y'all.<br />
So a denim on denim summer look today but next week I'm tapping into fall looks.<br />
I'm sad to see summer leave but happy for fall's arrival, just needs to be sooner rather than later.<br />

As much as I've been begging for Fall to be here already, it's just not, summer is still thriving.<br />
At least in Texas that is, because the only time it's cooled down was when it has been raining.<br />
So when the sun graced us with its presence again, I decided to put on the summer goods for a day in the town. For an off the shoulder dress, this one is perfect. It's comfortable for all day wear and I love that it's different with the tied straps at the shoulders. Labor Day is approaching and this would be great to wear for a BBQ or "sunday funday" out by the water. <span id="goog_1329967327"></span>The best thing is the price <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bxkpwzbpt2f" target="_blank">for this dress</a>, especially if you are on the fence about scooping up a summer piece with fall around the corner. However, I think this would be cute to transition into fall, paired with a vest or leather moto jacket, or even a white fur vest for the winter! It comes in a dark blue as well (now sold out online) but check out the stores because that color works well for the next season!<br />
Otherwise you can twin with me and we can be like that emoji dancing girl who is in the red dress!<br />
Have a happy Monday y'all...<br />

I can't stop wearing this bag, it's not too big but it's perfect for everyday wear running errands or even girls night. I really wanted the all brown bag but it sold out so now that it restocked I ordered it (and full price) because I seriously love this bag that much. I've also been wearing these sandals non-stop.

Wore this outfit on a recent road trip as I toured around Nashville and this outfit will be on repeat because it's really comfortable and has some favorite pieces. Obviously I can't get enough of plaid for the fall so this was a cute boyfriend style shirt I recently picked up that will be great for the upcoming season. Also, how many times have I raved about these jeans? See me chat <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/08/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-second.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-clothing.html" target="_blank">here</a> about them. I also have the distressed version and they are worn all the time! They fit perfect around the waist and ankle. Unfortunately these espadrille flats sold out already and since it's almost fall there are slim options left but I hope Nordstrom brings these back for y'all cause they are really comfortable. </div>

I have been obsessing over plaid shirt dresses right now and can't wait to wear them on repeat for the fall. I mean plaid in general is a staple in my wardrobe so it was a no brainer that I would stock up on these shirt dresses like I do a plaid shirt. I love the color combo of this plaid one because I love blue and pink together but I also scored on a red one, green one, plus black and white. For those of you still working on your back to school shopping, a shirt dress is a must have because it's really versatile and can be comfortable for those long days. I wore this to run errands but love that it can be casual for a movie date, paired with tights/booties/belt for fall, or chic it up a bit for a girls night.<br />
This particular shirtdress is great but size up a bit to compensate for length, as it has a scoop hem, unless your going for the show the legs type of look! Otherwise it's perfect to wear open, layered over pieces to create dimension (as shown below). Think of it as an updated look to your typically grandma cardigan because you can wear this as a cardigan and since it's a thicker fabric, it keeps you warm all while feeling soft and cozy. Football season is approaching and this look would be perfect, wear it closed at first and then wear open later in the day for a game<br />
to create a "different look" with the same piece.<br />
<u>Budget tip</u>: just steal your boyfriend/brother's plaid shirt and wear it open or tied for the same look!<br />

For the summer I jam packed my schedule in order to fit in as much traveling as I could, per my bucket list goals. Before I embarked across the country with my <a href="http://www.thehouseofsequins.com/" target="_blank">blogger friend Sarah</a>, I stopped in Long Island where she lives to see that side of New York. Today I am sharing a few snaps from my adventures and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the area and really enjoyed my time. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Don't judge me as I'm no alcoholic, but we went to a lot of places involving alcohol. We originally wanted to go to <a href="https://lavenderbythebay.com/" target="_blank">this beautiful Lavender Farm</a> as well but the field was not high enough, so we went to these places. Don't worry I had a designated driver, so I indulged a little bit while on vacation.</div>

This place was so breathtaking for a vineyard. The place was big in itself and then when you step outside in the back, they have this beautiful rose garden with flowers everywhere. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This would a great place for an event and I would definitely recommend if you want a nice wine tasting vineyard to enjoy. I ordered a set of four different red wines (because I'm a red lover) and these were great.</div>

This farm stand was such a nice place that had really yummy treats. I was hungry for a snack so I grabbed some potato chips and they were beyond good. But for the ultimate yummy snack, you HAVE to get the strawberry pie, look at the picture below because it was <b>so big and so worth it.</b></div>

Next was a potato vodka distillery that uses local farm potatoes from Long Island and this place was so neat. You go upstairs for a tasting and I got to try a sample of 4 flavors: raspberry, strawberry, lemon, and orange. The strawberry was the best in my opinion and a bottle definitely made its way back home with me. </div>

One last vineyard we stopped at, because "wine not" and it was just as nice. I only ordered one glass of wine here instead of a full tasting because I didn't want to be dragged out of there after a day full of drinking but it was nice to sit outside and relax, while running through the vineyard for a bit.</div>

<br />
Summer is still here in full effect as this heat wont die down, however that doesn't stop me from dreaming about and shopping for the fall weather. I know you may not be thinking about wearing a scarf right now but I've been buying a few lately and for now they can be a great accessory on your tote bag. If you're looking for the perfect <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwqvtwbpt2f" target="_blank">oversized casual tee</a>, I just scooped up this one in multiple colors. Running errands, traveling, layering, it's already been my go-to tee for the week. I'm wearing a size small for reference and I'm glad I didn't size down because the looser look was what I wanted.<br />
Also, I saw more colors available in the store like the one I'm wearing, a light blue, and a pink.<br />
You can't beat that price though, that is why I scooped up a few colors because I'm sure I will wear these out. Speaking of a good price, check out these <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwiciebpt2f" target="_blank">ankle boots</a> if you want to update your boot collection without breaking the bank. They are really comfortable and I love the tassels on the side.<br />
Did this look get anyone else to start dreaming of fall or have you already been prepping your closet?<br />

The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is almost over but there are still tons of stuff still available to shop!<br />
Not that I have shopped there every single year of the sale but I think this one was a really good one.<br />
I purchased way to much but my closet definitely needed the refresher.<br />
Since updating my closet with newbies I decided to purge my closet and get rid of a good handful of clothing/shoes/bags, etc to make space and not feel so overwhelmed.<br />
(I add all my pieces to <a href="https://poshmark.com/closet/dw_style" target="_blank">my Poshmark Closet here</a> if you're interested in things I am parting ways with, tons of new stuff still or hardly worn pieces, so check out my page).<br />
This all brings me to my next review post for the sale pieces I scored. I was on vacation for two weeks so I was not at home able to share my thoughts on some new pieces I wanted to try on first.<br />
If you haven't already, take a look at the <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-clothing.html" target="_blank">first review I did here</a> or <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/08/lace-detail-sweater-silver-oxfords.html" target="_blank">this last outfit post</a> with a few sale pieces and let me know what you loved!<br />
<i>Some pieces reviewed may be sold out in sizes or color but constantly check back for restocking!</i><br />
<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bw886ebpt2f" target="_blank">Blank NYC Suede Jacket</a> - size medium<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwh8ydbpt2f" target="_blank">Blank NYC Suede Jacket</a> - brown color (worn below)<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu8jh2bpt2f" target="_blank">WAYF stripe shirtdress</a> - size medium<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu76u6bpt2f" target="_blank">Halogen Bordeaux Suede Lace-up Flats</a> - size 8 (true to my size 8)<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXANoA-ARqRYERLYqew8SKAOd_zCVIGpGHT-g_kpmQ1BjiY65dTbd5sRCU_JyULMj1olw39KD7i7DoDPIS1MxfUi7gcefMqTNOkdgqXYw_VOI0xkEBpYUFooGdfOsr-9rvBgZIsGTiSpK-/s1600/IMG_6563.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Nordstrom Anniversary Sale BLANKNYC suede jacket and shirtdress" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiXANoA-ARqRYERLYqew8SKAOd_zCVIGpGHT-g_kpmQ1BjiY65dTbd5sRCU_JyULMj1olw39KD7i7DoDPIS1MxfUi7gcefMqTNOkdgqXYw_VOI0xkEBpYUFooGdfOsr-9rvBgZIsGTiSpK-/s640/IMG_6563.JPG" title="" width="640" /></a></div>
<b>JACKET:</b> This jacket is hands down one of my favorite pieces from the sale.<br />
It sold out really quickly but I've seen it come back in stock so keep your eyes checked on it!<br />
I also linked the brown version of this jacket and seriously think it's worth the money with no sale price. I would pay regular price for a BLANKNYC jacket any day. They are my absolute favorite when it comes to jackets so I don't mind spending a little extra for something I know I will wear all.the.time. I literally can't stop wearing <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwiigwbpt2f" target="_blank">my black leather one</a> I scored last year from the sale (and is 40% off now) and when it gets colder outside you better believe all I will wear are these jackets. I always wear medium in these jackets and they are a perfect fit.<br />
<b>DRESS:</b> This is a really good shirtdress and I love this style with the long sleeves. I originally purchased <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu8jinbpt2f" target="_blank">the olive green one</a> in the store but the striped one was sold out so I ordered online. I reviewed it in <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-clothing.html" target="_blank">the last post</a> and mentioned about the size, but I went with the medium for a loose fit at the hips. I paired the dress with flats (the can be worn now) but it would be perfect with booties as well for fall. <u>This is one piece that can also be worn now without waiting for fall to arrive! </u><br />
<b>FLATS:</b> I cannot rave about these flats enough, I LOVE them! So much so, I almost bought every color. The lace-up detailing is not going anywhere so scoop these up because they are perfect. Normally they would be tight since they are pointed and I have wide feet (in comparison to the studded pair they brought out last year), but these were a perfect fit in my size. This bordeaux color pair is going to be worn a lot for fall. Below I posted the leopard pair, <u>swoon</u>!<br />
<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu75crbpt2f" target="_blank">Socialite Cowl Neck Shift Dress</a> - size small (comes in 9 colors!)<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwiciebpt2f" target="_blank">Tassle Ankle Boots</a> - size 8 (true to size)<br />
<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwic3nbpt2f" target="_blank">Sole Society Tote Bag</a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9-3IWSe99irMEF7vgJaiUiwhbBzmrRSD96UJU3uPq3wA4kZHSb6qkR3mFRyjPIJ504n8LN1peAfChIzSkR2k_fmEtgJUJMnV-SFOhVv4LR9zkRYMwwWWICJH1iboXB0TlcLJmFHrMNZsE/s1600/IMG_6564.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Cowl Neck Dress Boots Tote Bag" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9-3IWSe99irMEF7vgJaiUiwhbBzmrRSD96UJU3uPq3wA4kZHSb6qkR3mFRyjPIJ504n8LN1peAfChIzSkR2k_fmEtgJUJMnV-SFOhVv4LR9zkRYMwwWWICJH1iboXB0TlcLJmFHrMNZsE/s640/IMG_6564.JPG" title="" width="640" /></a></div>
<b> DRESS:</b> At first I was unsure about this dress, it appeared like it was going to be too short for me,<br />
but when trying on I actually liked it. The best thing is that it comes with pockets but that also means it can have a little bit of a bulk at the hips but it's not too bad. I bought a bunch of colors in this dress to see which one I liked more and I think I'm going to keep the stripe, pink, yellow, and blue.<br />
They will be good dress to layer and even wear with tights<br />
(<a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2015/12/surviving-holidays-with-hanes.html" target="_blank">similar to this dress outfit I wore last year</a>). Below I posted the Marsala pink color.<br />
I ordered some in medium and some in small and I ended up sticking with the size small. The medium draped down too much at the armpit showing too much of my bra.<br />
<b>BOOTS:</b> These are not a part of the Nordstrom sale but I threw them on anyways. They are really comfortable and will be perfect for fall in the taupe color. Plus the price is on budget!<br />
<b>TOTE:</b> <i>(this taupe color is sold out but the black and brown is still available!)</i> This bag is the perfect carryall tote. I ordered the brown color and this taupe color. I already used the brown one on my recent vacation! I think this is perfect for a work tote or school tote bag. Plus the price point is perfect.<br />

<b>TANK: </b>Here I wore this tank tucked into the skirt for a dressed up look for a dinner or work. See below how I styled the same tank in a different color for a basic look with jeans.<br />
<b>SKIRT: </b>I love a good pencil skirt and a high waisted one too! This one screamed for me because I love those points plus the edgy detailing on the side with the zip. I love the color for fall but love that it's not too loud in color or detailing to wear in a more business setting.<br />
<b>NECKLACE:</b> I got this in the silver and the gold becasue I loved it so much. I saw a girl wearing in the store and when I asked where she got from, she pointed me right to it and it was from the N.Sale!<br />
<b>BAG:</b> I love this bag so much and it was hard for me to have to say I would return it but <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bvi2w5bpt2f" target="_blank">I got this bag here</a> instead and oh man, it's truly everything, a must have in your closet. I wish this tote had another strap besides the top handle but I figured I probably wouldn't get enough use out of it to keep.<br />
<b>SHOES:</b> not a part of the Nordstrom sale, they are old style from Target!<br />

<b>TANK:</b> I love this tank because it's really comfortable and soft. Glad I got both colors.</div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<b>JEANS: </b>My obsession with these jeans have not stopped, I cannot rave enough about them. They are the perfect fit and I talked about them in <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-clothing.html" target="_blank">the last review post</a> in this exact distressed pair. </div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<i>RESTOCKED after being completely sold out, so grab them FAST, they will be your favorite!</i></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both;">
<b>BOOTS:</b> These give me life, I love them so much. Really comfortable boots in the perfect color for fall, so I will be wearing these a lot. I love the scrunched detail in the back and the suede material.</div>

<b>SHIRT:</b> I originally reviewed the blue color in <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-clothing.html" target="_blank">the last post</a> and I think I forgot that when I ordered this one, because this fit the same. Hate to return this one because I would love a white denim shirt but I may exchange for a bigger size instead.<br />
<b>JEANS:</b> Same jeans I've been raving about but in the non-distressed style. (see above jeans)<br />
They hit perfect at the ankle for me and fit snuggly around the hips to hold in everything!<br />
<i>They are restocked in a few sizes so hurry and grab while you can! </i><br />
<b>FLATS:</b> Already reviewed the bordeaux color above but these leopard ones are beyond amazing. I'm so in love and they are perfect to wear now. These may be the new flats I wear all the time. I also ordered the all white leather color and the nude leather color but not sure about keeping both of those. </div>

<b>DRESS:</b> I am having a thing with plaid right now and shirt dresses, that is all I seem to buy. I love this one though because it has a nice loose fit and it's comfortable. I purchased all three colors because I couldn't decide and thought these would sell out fast. I seriously love them all and can't wait to wear in the fall. They are prefect with booties and to change it up they can even be worn all the open like a vest style layered over a tank and jeans. </div>
<div>
<b>BOOTS:</b> Y'all not kidding these boots are such a favorite. Again, I bought both colors and don't regret it. They are so comfortable and I love the style being open on side and at toes with the zip. Plus the soft material and a chunky heel is a big yes for me. Get them on sale before they sell out! I've already worn with shorts for the summer and the skinny jeans I reviewed above.</div>

<b>PANTS: </b>I reviewed these pants in <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/nordstrom-anniversary-sale-clothing.html" target="_blank">the last review here,</a> so I ordered a size up from last time but I still decided to send these back. They fit okay everywhere except the butt at the waist. I have bigger hips so I have that problem where I get the gaping at the waistband in the back. So I'm still on the hunt for the perfect leather pants.<br />
<b>SHIRT:</b> I think I ordered this shirt in the x-small because of how the fit seems to be on all these shirts I've tried on being larger, but this shirt was too small for me in the arms so the small would've been better. Once I do inventory on all the plaid shirts I have I will probably exchange this for another size or grab another color.<br />
<b>BUCKET BAG:</b> I bought the black and the brown color because I was unsure which one I wanted more and didn't want it to sell out. I'm actually still debating about this bag whether to keep. It's really cute but I bought another bag I love more in the sale so unsure I would actually wear this one.<br />
<b>FLATS: </b>I love these flats so much and originally purchased <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwienebpt2f" target="_blank">this pink color</a> but now wearing them they seem a bit snug at the toes for me, so will probably send them back. But man, they are gorgeous!<br />

I'm so in love with this cardigan! The color blocking just gets me and I can tell this will be one I wear a lot during the fall/winter. The only thing I hate is that it appears a little itchy so will have to wear with a tank underneath because I don't want to part ways with this one. <i>It also has pockets!!</i></div>

<b> CARDIGAN:</b> I hate that this cardigan is sold out because I got at the last minute and now I want more colors, hopefully will be restocked. I love the fit and material, plus it has pockets. I will probably return another one I got to keep this one instead.<br />
<b>DRESS:</b> I fell in love with this dress immediately when I saw it. I'm a big fan of color blocking and love the colors/details in this one. Perfect dress for a business occasion that can be worn casually with a cardigan or a blazer. The belt is included.<br />
<b>SHOES:</b> Not a part of the sale but old mules from Target, I love <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwih7vbpt2f" target="_blank">this similar pair</a> though and the silver ones are already in my cart!<br />

It seems like off the shoulder tops were the main hit this summer and I definitely added a few of them into my closet. I'm starting to see one shoulder pieces now coming into this next season as well,<br />
but I don't think the completely bare shoulder trend is going away any time soon.<br />
I loved <a href="http://rstyle.me/~8CMKm" target="_blank">this top</a> so much I scooped it up in a few other colors because the darker ones would be great for fall, however I've also seen this pink color making its way into the fall season for color trends.<br />
I love pairing the off the shoulder tops for a casual look (distressed shorts)<br />
or for a date night/happy hour look (with a pencil skirt or skinny jeans).<br />
If it's still blazing hot where you are, <i>we are reaching the 100 degrees point here in Texas</i>,<br />
than scoop up <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bwejddbpt2f" target="_blank">these shorts</a> while on crazy sale. I love printed shorts in the summer and will probably be wearing some for a labor day BBQ soon since it will still be hot over here.<br />

Random note: have you heard about the new Instagram stories similar to Snapchat?<br />
Thoughts of feedback going on but I actually have been loving it.<br />
If you don't follow me already, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dw_style/" target="_blank">check out my page</a> and see some of my videos before they disappear.<br />
I have a feeling I'm going to be more active in the Instagram stories thing than I was on Snapchat. <br />

Hey y'all. I'm finally back on the blog as I took a little hiatus due to a family vacation I embarked on across the United States two weeks ago. More on my vacation in another post soon, so today I'm sharing a look with some pieces I scored from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I know just looking at this, it's like whoa heat wave Darci, what are you thinking right now?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, <span style="text-align: start; text-decoration: -webkit-letterpress;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">the good thing about this sweater is the lace sleeves, which allow a little breath ability so it's not as heavy to wear before it's actually cold outside. The detailing is what sucked me into getting this sweater to begin with and I love that the sleeves alone are enough to make a statement for the outfit. It's great to wear casually with jeans or shorts but also chic enough with the lace to wear at work with a pencil skirt or pants! However I don't want to keep raving about this sweater and forget to mention these amazing silver Oxford shoes I also scooped up. I have been on the hunt for a good silver pair since last year so I'm glad the search is now over. Although not in a classic color like black or brown, the style is classic and the fit is perfect. I can't wait to wear these even more in the fall. These exact pieces are almost sold out and they are still on sale so scoop them up quickly but keep checking because restocking has been happening often plus your local store may have sizes available as well. Happy Monday! </span></span></div>

If you aren't already so sick of hearing about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, today I am finally sharing with y'all my shopping experience. I think I went a little crazy this year but that is because I wanted some new clothing items in my wardrobe so I tried on as much as I could and stocked up on a ton. I want to break this post up between categories (clothing/shoes/bags/beauty, etc) because there is much to review and discuss! Unfortunately, this sale came at a bad time when I am going on a two week vacation, therefore the more pieces I have ordered I won't be able to access and review. Hence, another post may come at the very end of the sale, if what I ordered is still available during the sale!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><u>THIS POST IS LONG Y'ALL SO THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR READING! </u></i><br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First let me start with clothing... I will break things down between what I tried on and purchased/loved, what I wasn't a fan of, and things I have ordered to try. Some of the things I got in a variety of colors because I could not decide right away and I didn't want something to sell out before I could figure it out. Later with what is in my closet, I hope to narrow down choices. Let me know if you have any questions, I can't wait to style these pieces even further to wear now and in the fall. </div>

<a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu6t7sbpt2f" target="_blank">BLANKNYC Faux Leather Jacket</a> - size medium<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8pDlaUVAv_cOT1w7ogSoveAvG-6rXaF7UYu2PDXYdPJAvRb90SWE8CP5O8O08KLC4HMGtZtdMNFbjp6PUov9gVw048LXk_A09oHHZYoACQLh-t9JbmZO-2lOA6oYPWMnjXrz_XoNfJI9M/s1600/IMG_4901.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Nordstrom Anniversary Sale BLANKNYC faux leather jacket" border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8pDlaUVAv_cOT1w7ogSoveAvG-6rXaF7UYu2PDXYdPJAvRb90SWE8CP5O8O08KLC4HMGtZtdMNFbjp6PUov9gVw048LXk_A09oHHZYoACQLh-t9JbmZO-2lOA6oYPWMnjXrz_XoNfJI9M/s640/IMG_4901.jpg" title="" width="640" /></a></div>
I am going to start with some absolute favorites/must haves. If you haven't already heard about me raving about BLANKNYC and their jackets, listen to me know, they are everything. I bought my first one last year on sale (<a href="http://rstyle.me/~8CbPh" target="_blank">still available here</a>) and it has been something I have worn out, which now makes me want the gray color. This year they killed it in jackets again. The suede one (if you've seen it by most) is sold out already and is so major, but trust me the faux leather ones are just as good. I scooped up both colors of the suede jacket (review later) but I also got this beautiful <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/buvgabbpt2f" target="_blank">green faux leather jacket</a> and now added this cognac color to the collection. At first when I saw this jacket, I wasn't crazy about it but when I tried it on, it was love at first feel. The green one is nice to change it up but the cognac color is a must have for fall. I always wear medium in the BLANKNYC jackets and they fit true to size for me. Even this cognac jacket which is more fitted, fit true to size for me. </div>

I saw this dress first in the striped version but I loved the green color just as much. This size appeared slightly big but when I tried on the small it was a little fitted at the hips (where I'm bigger) and I would prefer a looser fit in this dress. If you aren't curvy like me, than the smaller will work good. I also rolled the cuffs one at the sleeves. I can't wait to pair this dress with a fur vest and booties. I ordered the striped dress because they didn't have my size in the store.<br />

I really love this tee and grabbed a few colors for now (burgundy/black/navy) but I plan on getting a few others once I decide which ones I particularly need in my closet. I have my eye on the coral, mustard yellow, and baby blue colors as well. What I love about this Caslon tee is that it's perfect for layering and I wore it below with pictured bomber jacket. For the price, I think it's such a good staple basic tee for your wardrobe. There is also <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu78vsbpt2f" target="_blank">this scoop neck tee</a> that is VERY similar, but it appears to be more fitted, however I did not try this one on so unsure about it. I compared another similar top a few pictures below.<br />

I put on this jacket and immediately felt so "bomb" I knew I had to take it home with me. It's not your everyday basic but it's definitely a statement piece I want in the fall. I paired it with <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu79b2bpt2f" target="_blank">this burgundy Caslon tee</a> from above with jeans and I seriously would rock that outfit in a heartbeat.<br />

I literally almost walked out of the store with these jeans, they were so good. I wore these for about half the time I was in the dressing room (which seemed like forever!) and they fit so perfect. They are a high waisted fit, which I love because they suck everything in but what's great is they don't feel as if I am losing my breath. Another thing is the fit at the ankle...sometimes being short I have such a hard time finding a good pair that hits exactly at the ankle without too much baggage and these are exactly straight with nothing extra to cuff. If you want a cuffed look these aren't the jeans for you, but they work great with the distressing and the perfect jean for sneakers and boots! I also grabbed <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu78f5bpt2f" target="_blank">this basic pair</a> as well. I tried on a few other jeans I'll review below but none of them worked out as much as these. I didn't try on every pair of jeans but wish I could've though because I want another good pair non high waisted.<br />

You read that right, size XS. I found that Caslon and BP shirts were WAY too big on me. I normally wear a size medium and most of the stuff I tried from both I had to get a small or even XS, it was weird. I read reviews about the same thing happening to others though, so FYI in case you are looking to purchase these items, they run big. As much as I loved all the plaid shirts, this was the only one I got (besides another Caslon one shown below) because in this style, the XS was even too big but I loved this color and I can wear this one with tights in the fall.<br />

Yes, a size XS, can you believe that? Well I really loved this sweater and grabbed the other color as well. It was a great fit (after sizing down) and hit great around the bottom front and back. </div>

I have heard so many good things about these leggings and they did not disappoint. They are so amazing and I ended up buying like all of them. They hug my body just right and make me feel secure, especially around the waist. I loved the high waist fit and it didn't feel as if it was too tight.<br />
New fan here, will be shopping for these more often now. Prior to this day I also purchased <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu8y76bpt2f" target="_blank">this pair of capris</a> and also <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu8zg9bpt2f" target="_blank">this one</a>, which is what made me come back to get more! I loved <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu8zbwbpt2f" target="_blank">this sports bra</a> as well, great fit and cute style for those open tees!<br />
<br />
I also scooped up these <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu78nebpt2f" target="_blank">Lysse knit leggings</a> that I absolutely LOVE. They will be staple leggings for me to wear in the fall, great thick material and really comfortable.<br />

I've seen quite a few people get this cardigan or review it and I loved it too. However compared to <a href="http://rstyle.me/n/bu85ambpt2f" target="_blank">the Leith cardigan,</a> this one was not as soft. Trust me, it is but the other one is softer. Plus I had to size down in this open cardigan because it was too baggy and large otherwise. </div>

Loved this blazer as it is more on the casual side! I want to get a few colors in this because it really is comfortable and can be worn casual chic with jeans. I loved the navy one with the sleeves rolled up.<br />

Loved this top, they had other prints and colors but I chose to stick with one for this price. This one is cute to wear now and in the fall with jeans or tights!<br />

Here are some pieces I tried on that did not work for me or I am still debating on whether to keep:<br />

The first plaid top I reviewed above about how BIG the shirt really was but if you want an oversized look than it's great. I only chose to get one with that style though and the bottom plaid shirt I did purchase but still debating on whether to keep. The fit is better than the other one but not sure about the color combo just yet.<br />

First, I was not a fan of the T&B frayed hem jeans, the fit was off for me.<br />
Second, the BLANKNYC leather pants were obviously too tight for me but they didn't have the larger size for me to try so ordered it because I love them and been wanting a pair!<br />
Third, these boyfriend jeans were also a weird fit for me so I said no thanks.<br />

I purchased both of these but still debating whether I should keep. I liked the fit and the longer back on these tops because you can wear with leggings but the first shirt is similar to the one I reviewed above that I love more, so I may just keep the striped color. They are comfortable and great for layering or to pair casually with jeans. </div>

I wasn't in love with this denim shirt and the fit was a little snug when I raised my arms and I can't stand that, so this went back to the rack.<br />

Not really sure how I feel about these ones. The first I took to see how it looked styled/with jeans, but I don't know about the cleavage area. The second was a no due to the fit, a little big and too draped.<br />

Not a fan of the open front blouse and that was a size small. Also couldn't decide on the vest, it's different but not sure how much I would actually wear.<br />

Anytime before I go on vacation, to help with my packing struggling, I always hit up the stores and do some retail therapy. It makes packing so much easier when you have new goodies to take with you. No I don't purchase a complete new wardrobe for each trip but I do take inventory of what I need based on the type of vacation. On my recent adventures to Ibiza, Spain I wore this look walking around town. This <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fshop.nordstrom.com%2Fs%2Fas-u-wish-handkerchief-hem-slipdress%2F4381160&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">handkerchief hem dress</a> was perfect for a casual day and just what I needed to double as a bathing suit cover up. My sister loved it so much she stole it from me and took with her for her Hawaii trip. I should've told her it's now on sale and to go grab her own so I can wear it again in this summer heat! I loved complimenting this dress with a <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=524737795&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">cropped denim jacket</a> and this one has quickly become a summer favorite. I have now grown to really love jackets from BlankNYC and think they are worth the price. <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=483897512&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">This leather jacket</a> I scored last year on sale I literally cannot stop raving about (or cannot stop wearing) and I cannot wait to get a new one in a different color.<br />
Another sale piece I picked up before my trip were <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=518073188&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">these studded sandals</a> from another brand I love, and as you can see from a ton of others wearing them too, they are really that good!<br />
Speaking of sales, who is ready for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale starting tomorrow?<br />
I cannot wait to score some new goodies that will be favorites for the year and also to share my finds.<br />
On my list are boots, jackets, and tops. What piece/pieces are you hunting for the sale?</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
A few weeks ago when I was vacationing in London, I got a chance to experience the Royal Ascot horse races. I discussed a bit of the experience and some tips if you ever get the chance to visit yourself, <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/07/travel-diary-my-recent-trip-to-london.html" target="_blank">here in this travel guide post</a> I wrote about London. Today I wanted to share more about the look I went with for the event. Similar to the Kentucky Derby, most of the ladies in attendance are decked out including a fabulous hat. I decided to play along with the event in wearing a big hat and it was really fun to get to be all fancy for a day. I have to say though, I am really in love with <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=519169378&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">this sheath dress</a>, as I've been wanting to get my hands on it for a while and it did not disappoint. It's in the perfect blush color for summer and it is definitely going to be a keeper in my closet for the long haul as I can wear for numerous occasions. If you have followed along for a while, you will have known I am big fan of a good sheath dress and this one is a nice twist to the classic with the mesh panel.<br />
For my 30th birthday I bought myself <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=506410701&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">these beautiful mesh heels</a> and they went perfect with this dress. I get so many compliments wearing them and even got one from a guy while at the Royal Ascot event! I normally cannot wear these designer heels since I have a wider foot but having the open toe helps a lot and surprisingly I can wear these for a while without dying inside.<br />
All in all, I had a great time at this classic event wearing all around classic pieces. </div>

Last week I did a post about my trip to Ibiza, Spain which was the end of my two week vacation and now I'm reviewing the first part of my trip which was in London. I was only in London for about four days as from there we went to Dublin, Ireland for about three days. I plan to have another travel post next Thursday with a look at my trip to Dublin, but for now I will recap London.<br />

For this trip, I actually flew to Long Island first to hang out with Sarah for a few days before our longer trip to Europe, that way I could check out what Long Island is all about and so we could fly together. We flew out of JFK airport and took Iberia operated by British Airways. We actually took a night flight leaving New York and I highly recommend if you do so as well, to make sure you sleep on the plane because it was a six hour time change so when we landed in London it was already early morning the next day. We didn't want to waste our first day sleeping so quickly we went out to do stuff and then later came back and took a mini nap, before going out again.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I loved staying at this hotel, it was so modern, I mean <a href="https://www.citizenm.com/destinations/london/london-bankside-hotel" target="_blank">check out the pictures</a> of this place! There was only two of us in the room and it was a little small for girls with tons of stuff but it worked out fine. The bed is so big, they had an iPad on the nightstand to control the lighting/shades/TV, and on the TV they had a bunch of free movies to play. Two of the nights we stayed in and just watched movies because we were exhausted so it was nice to just chill with dinner and a movie in bed. Downstairs in the hotel they had food to eat, a bar, couches everywhere to lounge, and a computer area if you need. Since we took RyanAir flights, we were able to print our boarding pass for free at the hotel, which was really helpful. If you read my <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/06/travel-diary-non-party-guide-to-ibiza.html" target="_blank">travel post last week</a>, you remember the key note I mentioned about printing your boarding pass early. The location was perfect as it was only a quick cab ride over to all the landmark places we wanted to go, although the traffic seemed really bad often so it made short distances seem far away. The other great thing I want to say about this hotel is that they were super accommodating when it came to checking in when we landed. It was really early and check-in wasn't for hours longer and we really wanted to check in to change and get settled so we can go about our day and they actually had a room available for us early! Also if you had any questions or need recommendations they are friendly and always so helpful. </span><br />

So above picture is what's called "Sunday Roast" - which is a traditional British meal served on Sunday. It consists of a roasted meat, I opted for the chicken, with a variety of other side items like roasted potato and cauliflower, as shown in picture. It was amazing and I wish I could've finished it all but it's a ton of food for one person! You can get this dish at a bunch of different places but we opted for a spot that was around the corner from our hotel, called Hixter. We didn't have a reservation but we sat at the bar so we were able to be seated right away.<br />

<i><b>KEY NOTE: </b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: start;">
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>I didn't know this until I experienced it but pretty much every place you want to go eat at you need to make a reservation. Unless it's a fast food joint, it makes it difficult if you don't make the reservation first, so plan ahead if you can!</i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Something else I didn't know was that tipping isn't necessary in London. It is not common like how it is in the United States and other places. </i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Also another thing about food is that they have an uber eats app, which delivers food to you! </i><i>Perfect when you don't want to leave your hotel. </i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Across from our hotel was this cool italian place to eat called, <a href="http://uk.vapiano.com/en/restaurants/vapiano-bankside-90-b-southwark-street-1/" target="_blank">Vapiano</a>. It was really neat because you get this card and you go to different stations to order what you want, while watching them make your pasta. </i></li>

Right before we jumped on the London Eye, we snapped some pictures across from the Big Ben, but of course the view from being on the London Eye was ten times better. I pretty much wore this leather jacket all the time because the weather was a little breezy and gloomy. Luckily we didn't get hit with the rain while we were on the trip and if we did it was light sprinkles. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So we were able to get on the London Eye through the fast track and let me tell you, it was a life saver. If you can, pay for this option because you skip the long lines and you get to be in your own pod with a few people instead of being jammed packed. There were only four other people in the pod with us which was great because we got to move around and have space to take pictures.<br />
If you are afraid of heights it probably won't be your thing but it really is worth the experience.<br />

This is the ultimate department store. I mean words can't describe how neat it is to shop around this place. All the designer goods are perfectly placed and displayed, I was all googly eyed the whole time. Then there was shoe heaven and y'all already know I was trying so hard not to take a shoe baby home with me. But one of the other amazing things they have there is all the cool eateries. Let me tell you, don't come hungry because you will walk around and want absolutely everything. We ended up getting cupcakes because those were hard to resist and I scooped up some fudge for my mother.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then later we stopped at the cafe for a latte break. Now if anyone wants to donate a small fortune to me, I can go back and actually get some other goodies. </div>

The next day we got to experience such a cool event, just like the Kentucky Derby but it was called the Royal Ascot, with the Queen in attendance and everything. Of course I only saw her from a TV monitor because I was a peasant at this event but it was cool to be apart of this in London. I think the best part was just seeing the outfits to be honest. We went on a Friday, which was known to be Ladies Day and it did not disappoint as far as ladies rocking the coolest hats and prettiest outfits. We didn't look at the itinerary and we thought we were running late because we did not get there until around noon (it took a little more than an hour to get there from our hotel) but it turns out nothing had officially started at that time yet. They do a royal procession at 2:00 and then the first race is at 2:30, the whole thing lasting until after 6:00pm. Next week I am sharing more outfit photos from what I wore but below are some tips from my experience.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

</div>
<ul style="text-align: start;">
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>If you happen to go to London during this time and able to make it out to the Royal Ascot, let me give you tips. First, even though the races don't start until the late afternoon, if you want to sit anywhere you need to get there really early. We were on the side where it was more of a picnic style seating with tables and seating out in the lawn but it was packed by the time we got there so standing was the only option. </i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Second, I know you want to look cute but I recommend bringing a big bag to carry a towel for you to place on the grass for seating. Also so you can carry another pair of shoes if you want.</i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Ladies, I was wearing Christian Louboutin heels for hours and often times having to walk through grass or unleveled gravel, although cute, it was not much fun. I wish I would've went with wedges, heels with a block heel, or cute sandals. </i> </li>

Afternoon tea seems to be all the rage in London so we planned to check out this event at the Sanderson Hotel that was themed around Alice in Wonderland. It truly was such a neat experience. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Most people go to <a href="http://sketch.london/#gsc.tab=0" target="_blank">Sketch</a> for tea because of the popularity surrounding it with the all pink setting and artwork, but it was nice to try something different and I fell in love with this place. </div>

I wish we could've experienced the tipsy evening tea party as well which includes alcohol, </div>

the drinks just look amazing. But it doesn't surprise me because every single detail was perfect down the table setting, sandwiches, and treats. I couldn't stop taking pictures of how cool it was here.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Check out the menu below, I honestly can't narrow down the best thing, everything was so tasty. </div>

After the tea we decided to walk around and be tourist, so we walked over to see the Tower Bridge.<br />
There were so many cool photo ops around this place, we walked for a while checking out all that surrounded it. This is where you can actually go and see where the crown jewels are, but they were closing by the time we got around to checking it out.<br />

Last but not least we got to experience Buckingham Palace at the popular time of seeing the <a href="https://www.royalcollection.org.uk/visit/buckinghampalace/what-to-see-and-do/changing-the-guard" target="_blank">changing of the guards</a>. Do you know it has 775 rooms? Like whoa! We got there just in time to see all the action (starts around 11:30am) but we were on the right side of the building instead of being on the left which is where the guards make their entrance. It was so packed this day but surprisingly you could still get a good picture, however when the guards enter the palace and do their show outside, it is hard to see behind people. It was happening everyday during the time we went but after August this only happens on odd days. The ceremony lasts 45 minutes but we didn't stay too long. It was just a neat moment to witness.<br />

<ul style="text-align: start;">
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>At the end of the last day, we decided to hop on a bike and ride around the area. It cost two euro for 24 hours but it was free for the first 30 minutes. I was scared to roam around in the main areas because of drivers on the road so we stuck to the back streets around our hotel. It was really nice to stroll around for a little while and see the area. </i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>If you happen to stay at the CitizenM hotel, at the end of the block is a cool bar called The White Hart. Our first night we passed by and saw so many people standing outside so we changed and went over for a few beers and met the coolest group of people. The chill night ended up being a long night after going to a club in SoHo, but it was fun nonetheless. The SoHo area is also another cool location if you want a fun night out, lots of cool spots to hang.</i></li>

Happy Fourth of July! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I hope you are getting to enjoy a fun filled day with your family/friends! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I plan on a day full of eating BBQ and watching fireworks later tonight. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I wanted to quickly share a few snaps of some of the swimwear pieces I wore on my recent beach vacation, most have been on Instagram already but I've added links to where you can scoop them up!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
One of my favorite places to get swimwear is Target, but I also love Old Navy and Victoria's Secret. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love beach cover-ups and get most of mine from H&M, Victoria's Secret, or Express.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Enjoy the holiday! </div>

After some recent changes in my life, one of the goals I made was to live each day to the fullest while adding more travel into my life. I immediately started organizing and planned a three visit trip with friend/blogger Sarah, at <a href="http://www.thehouseofsequins.com/" target="_blank">The House of Sequins</a>. Over the past two weeks, we embarked on an amazing travel journey to London, Dublin, and Ibiza. Now every week I want to share my experience through pictures and a review of each part of the trip! I hope to continue traveling throughout the year and document every detail for the blog. Check back every week as I hope to open a new chapter with travel reviews, tips, etc! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So lets talk about the beach trip first...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>Ibiza, Spain</b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>When most people hear Ibiza, the first thought is usually <u>party</u>, however we made it a memorable trip without actually doing that, so I'm sharing how I made Ibiza a vacation minus the ultimate party. </i></div>

<u><b>Flight / Travel </b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Flying into Ibiza we came from Dublin, Ireland and we took Ryan Airlines. Have you ever flown with them or heard about that airline? It has appears to have cheap flights but you also have to pay for additional things such as your baggage and picking your seat. The price for the seat depends on the location of the plane you want to sit, so back rows are cheapest and then front rows are most expensive (ranging an average from $5 at the back rows to $16 for the front rows). You could also pay a few extra dollars for priority boarding which allows you access to board first and get space for your carry on bags. Baggage fees are about $45 for only 20kg maximum, which is only 45 pounds. At the airport, there is a designated taxi line and to our hotel, it was a short ride costing about 13 euro. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><b>KEY NOTE: </b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Make sure you print your boarding pass prior to checking in at the terminal because they charge an extra $45 if they have to print the boarding pass for you! Also be aware of the weight in your luggage because an extra 1kg (about 2 pounds) will cost an extra $10 euros. </i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i>Not every taxi accepts credit cards, therefore have some euros on hand for the ride. Additionally, throughout the town there will be designated areas to get a taxi, as you cannot just hop into any taxi you find, even if someone is exiting one. However, your hotel can most likely contact one for you to be picked up at that location. </i></li>
</ul>

<b><u>Places to Stay</u></b></div>
<div style="color: #333333; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><a href="http://www.tropicanaibizacoastsuites.com/en" target="_blank">Tropicana Coastal Suites </a></i></span></div>
<div style="color: #333333; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>Playa d'en Bossa, Ibiza</i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333; font-family: inherit;">Compared to most of the hotels we saw, this one appeared to be the cheapest, </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">without having to settle to much on quality. One great feature is the availability of wifi, so you're able to stay connected and keep your snapchat feed alive! Although this hotel wasn't exactly on the beach, it was literally across the street, so a quick minute walk over to it. This is great for those that don't want a complete party scene surrounding them because it appeared more relaxing and quiet. They offer food at this hotel but it seems to be more of light snacks like hot dogs, popcorn, chips. They offered an open continental style breakfast, however it was not a typical American breakfast with eggs, meat, waffles, etc., it offered light food like yogurt and muffins. Although, they had amazing cocktails (approx. 12 euro) with fresh fruit and my favorite was the pina colada!</span></span></div>

Staying at the Tropicana Coastal Suites (for a cheaper price) allowed us access to the Santos Ibiza Coast and Durado Suites. The great thing about this hotel is that it's right on the beach and it has an amazing pool area. We tried the food here and had the caesar salad with crispy chicken and fries (pictured below), so yummy!</div>

<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">This was a local place we found walking down one of the side streets and what grabbed our attention was the two for one margaritas during the Happy Hour from 8-10pm. It's a small place that offers street style Mexican food (think burritos/tacos) and it's the perfect late night place (open till 6am) for food like what we snacked on, nachos with cheese/guacamole! I had the mango margarita and strawberry margarita and the frozen mango one was amazing! </span></span></div>

You started with a small salad and loads of bread. Then comes the Creole sausage, chicken, Argentinian black pudding, skirt steak, flank steak, secreto iberico, and baby back ribs. The ranch sauce they had was amazing, I added it to some of the steak but the meat alone was so juicy and flavorful I literally couldn't stop eating. This ended up being a favorite place we ate from Ibiza, so I highly recommend, so much value for such little cost!</span></span></div>

<span style="color: #333333;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">I actually am not a fan of mojitos unless they are hands down one of the best. We stopped at this place, which was yet again right across the street from the Justo Enfrente restaurant. We were just bouncing around trying every place. Y'all this mojito gave me life, it was so fresh! We tried the watermelon (left) and the passionfruit (right) and the passionfruit won as the best. </span></span></div>

This place was a nice hidden gem that was about 15 minutes away from our hotel. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Unfortunately we went to this place on a Sunday unknowingly that most of the shops are closed, like Zara, etc. However we still had a great time walking along the harbor and enjoyed frozen yogurt. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
We were told Ibiza town was known for the shops but we were unaware of this historic landmark that we stumbled upon walking around town. It is called <a href="https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g664638-d546724-r379670150-Castle_of_Ibiza-Ibiza_Town_Ibiza_Balearic_Islands.html" target="_blank">Elvissa</a> and when you walk through it (be prepared for a bit of an uphill climb) you get to the top, which provides such an amazing view all around of Ibiza town. The picture below is before we walked in and the picture above is when we got to the top!</div>

<i><b>Ibiza San Antonio (Sant Antoni) </b></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After checking out the Habor and town, we cabbed over to San Antonio as we heard it was the place to be for the view of the sunset. I honestly did not make this out to be much until it happened and then I realized why everyone flocks this place to see it. First of all, it was about 15 mins from Ibiza Town to here and after we left it was about 30 mins away from our hotel (about 31 euro taxi). Since we got there hours before the sun was to set, we stopped at one of restaurants that is on the strip. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I cannot stress how amazing the chicken tacos were at this place. This was more of an appetizer as it only came with three tacos and was priced at 17 euro, but it was worth it, plus the view right along the ocean is breathtaking, even before sunset. We also tried the chips/guacamole and a pitcher of sangria, totaling our bill to about 55 euro. I would skip the chips and get an extra of the tacos.</div>

If you want to sit along the dock with a table, you have to order food and they said the minimum per person was 45 euro, however we only paid 71 euro for both of us but even at 45 each, I would recommend this place over and over. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We ordered a pitcher of the white sangria, pepperoni pizza, and chicken skewers. Sarah went crazy for the chicken skewers but I was not much of a fan of the sauce. If you don't want to pay to sit anywhere at the restaurant you can sit along the water, but be careful it's rocky (as shown in my picture below). However, tons of people just sat and enjoyed the view from there. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>If you decide to hang at the pool or beach, go to the local convenience store first as it is much cheaper than getting bottled water at any hotel. I made the mistake and paid 4 euro for a tiny bottle and then scooped a huge one up at the market for 1 euro. </i></span></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-family: inherit;">Any time we had a drink at the pool or restaurant it averaged 12 euro. </span></i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-family: inherit;">If you do want the party scene, there will be tons of people either walking along the beach or on the </span></i><i><span style="font-family: inherit;">street selling you advanced tickets to a club. I would suggest talking with one of them as it appears to be cheaper than paying at the door of the club. It seemed at least 10 euros cheaper. However, be prepared for the extreme annoyance of those people constantly selling you on something. As soon as one walks away another one may walk up. </span></i></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><i><span style="font-family: inherit;">From what I heard along Ibiza, there are specific days to go to certain clubs, make sure you check the list to see which DJ or night is the best. For example, David Guetta plays on Thursdays and Mondays at different places.</span></i></li>

When I was younger I hated my teeth but I knew they wouldn't just fix themselves. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was hoping for an overnight miracle but I found out the miracle would be in the form of braces to fix them up nicely. After a grueling three year process, I was grinning from ear to ear. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, then I was told a retainer was necessary to keep them perfect but I just didn't care to listen to that fact because after three years the last thing I wanted was to add another step in the game, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so I left it alone. I was wrong and my top row of teeth separated a bit, so add that to the list of advice I should've taken. Years pass and I join the coffee drinking club, while also guzzling sodas instead of water. Although I was active in normal oral hygiene habits, I realized my teeth were getting darker over time as I became an avid coffee drinker (while drinking it all day instead of in one sitting)<br />
so once again I was looking for an overnight miracle. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thinking back to my braces/retainer situation, I knew I couldn't continue to let something go and hope for the best. Plus, I had to be prepared for yet another process because I knew there were options to fix it but I'm not a celebrity that can pay for overnight success. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since I knew I would not be giving up coffee any time soon I needed to think of further options to assist in getting my teeth to be more pearly whites. I've tried whitening strips before and wasn't a huge fan but when I heard about a custom whitening option from home and how the experience was said to be the most effective, I needed to give it a try. Now I know you when hear custom you're like didn't you just say you couldn't afford something like that, well yea you're right, so this is where <a href="http://www.smilebrilliant.com/contest#diaryofasouthernshoppe" target="_blank">Smile Brilliant Teeth Whitening</a> comes into the picture. A custom fitted tray from the dentist can cost up to $500 + but with Smile Brilliant, you get the same custom fit/process without the same expense.<br />
<br />
<u>So let me explain the process and how it went for me:</u><br />
The kit includes <span style="font-family: inherit;">Teeth Whitening Trays for you to make impressions, clay to mix for impressions, instructions on how to mix the clay and make the impressions, whitening gel syringes, desensitizing gel syringes, instructions on how to use the gels in the trays, and a prepaid envelope for you to ship the impressions to Smile Brilliant for custom trays to be made. Make sure you keep the return card for you to ship with the impressions to put your name and address for them to send the trays to you.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">(I messed up and didn't read so I accidentally threw it away, whoops!)</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">First, you want to make sure you clean you're teeth prior to making the impressions!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Then you mix the catalyst and base paste together but make sure you immediately place the mixed putty into the tray and quickly make the impression. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Making the impression is important because this is how your custom whitening trays are made so clearly read the instructions provided. Once you have made that, let it sit for about 30 minutes and rinse it with cool water. Let the impression completely harden before placing into shipping envelope and then mail them back to the lab. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><i>At first I was nervous to make the impressions because I use to hate doing that at the dentist, but I immediately told my mom after doing these, how easy it was with the putty and not having to lay back like in a dentist chair. </i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The impressions are shipped within 3 business days, the lab does a quick day turnaround and ships them back for you to receive within 3 business days. Overall from you doing impressions, shipping same day or next, and getting custom trays, the process is about a week. The ultimate win because you don't even have to leave your house to go to the dentist!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">You don't need to add too much gel into the trays because it will only cause overflow...</span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">At first I kept the trays on for like 30 minutes but as I continued to wear them throughout the week, I increased my time. I didn't experience much sensitivity besides maybe the first day with my teeth getting use to it, but that is why you don't start wearing them for 3 hours. </span><i style="font-family: inherit;">NOTE: Clean your teeth prior but make sure you don't use toothpaste just yet, just floss and clean with brush/water. This will only slow the whitening process down. </i></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I brushed my teeth with toothpaste after the whitening and then rinsed out the tray. </span><span style="font-family: inherit;">Following the whitening you want to make sure you use the desensitizing gel in order for your teeth to re-hydrate. Don't worry, you don't need to have the trays in for long, 5-15 minutes max but after just refrain from drinking or eating for 30 minutes. </span><br />

<u>Here is the before shot of my yellow teeth, yikes.</u> </div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I did this process towards the end of my day and overall, loved the process. I </span>found<span style="font-family: inherit;"> it to be much easier than I originally thought and it didn't feel uncomfortable at all. I really didn't think about them much and just watched TV or did chores around the house. Surprisingly, the gel syringes lasted a long time because you don't need that much for each application. If you get six of them, they should last you like 3 months if you whitened every single day, but it could be different for everyone. If you don't want to whiten every day, this set could last you a long time, well worth the investment. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Some days I was busy or fell asleep before doing so, but as much as I did, I could definitely see a difference after just a few applications. The great thing is I started to limit my coffee/soda intake after going through this teeth whitening process as I realized if I want to see an even better difference, I need to take better action for the future, just like if I would've worn my retainers when I was younger!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I highly recommend this product as I have already received compliments about the difference. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b><i>Now - here is the after shot with about two weeks of whitening </i></b></span><br />
<b><i><span style="font-family: inherit;">and with a smile this white, this is definitely something I am going to continue.</span></i></b><br />

My uniform pretty much looks like this during the summer.<br />
I am all about wearing comfortable dresses, wedges, and straw hats.<br />
Comfortable is key, especially living in a place where the summer time is brutal in terms of weather.<br />
It is usually so hot that you don't want to be in anything too constricting,<br />
where you also have the motto: less is more. <br />
I'm a lover of a good stripe print so when you find a <a href="https://www.agacistore.com/easy-stripe-column-dress/30010-40059.html?dwvar_30010-40059_color=108" target="_blank">striped maxi dress</a> that is light, soft, with some stretch, you basically do a happy dance.<br />
This dress, that is less than $15 by the way,<br />
also has a slit on the side that adds some sass, which is a nice change up from the usual.<br />
I snagged this <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=511622014&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">straw panama hat</a> as I was on the lookout for a new one to take with me on my travels, and it was the perfect addition to my collection. A classic that can be worn with tons for the summer.<br />
For another summer wardrobe staple, I love wearing wedges, especially with a cork material.<br />
Initially when I found these <a href="https://www.agacistore.com/yogi-s-first-class-flatform/28010-40894.html?dwvar_28010-40894_color=1" target="_blank">flatform sandals</a> I was skeptical, but they ended up warming my heart, especially with the lace up details.<br />
What's great is that I can just throw a denim or leather jacket over this dress and change up the look.<br />
Which is pretty much what I wear when I travel because it's easy and comfortable.<br />
So what are your summer outfit essentials?<br />

Finally it seems the rain has started to slow down here in Texas to allow us a proper summer.<br />
Of course that happens just when I'm about to leave out of the country to a place that is less sunny and warm right now...London and Dublin. Thankfully I am ending the trip in Ibiza, Spain where I can have some fun in the sun on the beach. For now, I'm going to bask in the sun while it's here for a bit.<br />
So I busted out the faux leather cognac shorts for a day out and had to add some fun accessories.<br />
I mean straw bags seem to be it for this season and I was so happy to have found this one.<br />
I kept raving on my Instagram page about it but to note here,<br />
basically I snagged it from my mom who had it completely hidden and wanted to give it away.<br />
I was like whoa whoa whoa, let me take that from you.<br />
Needless to say, it's no longer available now, but I have shared a ton of other great options I wouldn't mind adding to my closet as well. <i>(check the bottom of this post for a variety of favorites!)</i><br />
I love taking a simple outfit and making it pop with color, so doing so with accessories is always fun.<br />
I want to go to brunch this weekend and thought about how this would've been the perfect outfit to hang with the ladies and enjoy a mimosa, or bottomless ones, same difference.<br />

Hey y'all, I'm back.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been absent from the blog for a short bit and it's been for good reason.<br />

It is now the start of a new life for me.<br />
Along side going through some personal experiences, I hit a moment in my life where I decided it was time to stop being afraid and take the risks my heart was urging me to do.<br />
It was almost like I turned 30 and everything changed, literally.<br />
Have you had that moment where everything was going around you so fast and then all of a sudden it slows down just enough for you to catch a glimpse of your life, to be like whoa wait.<br />
I mean I realized life goes way too fast and if you keep spinning on the rollercoaster and not for good reason (like chasing your dream or in complete utter bliss) than one day the rollercoaster will break down and you will have that moment to be like wait, why did I waste so much time?<br />
I don't ever regret things because I think everything happens for a reason.<br />
But I hit a point where I said I'm not getting any younger<br />
and asked am I absolutely the happiest I could be?<br />
I wasn't. I was stuck in a funk and I knew I had to get it out of it, fast.<br />
I decided quick that it was time to start living for me, in the way I see happiest, in order to be fulfilled. So from that moment (around my birthday, early April) I kicked my butt into changing my mind mode. I set goals and took out my bucket list. I did the unthinkable and quit my job.<br />
As scary as it was, the positive feedback I got from it helped ease my mind, let me tell you.<br />
But of course there were also a ton of questions<br />
and a sense of uneasiness whether what I was doing was smart. Like who quits their full time career,<br />
especially when they were on the track to do big things in that field? Yup, that was me.<br />
Was it an easy decision, absolutely not. But in my heart it felt right and I had to follow that beat.<br />
Because I know following my dreams will lead me to bigger things in life and I can't keep living in the "what if" lifestyle. So the fashion world will start seeing more of me since I plan on being more involved in it as a business and the world in general will be graced with my presence as I plan on doing so much traveling as well, even if it means I have to eat ramen for a while as I scrape up pennies. I already have three trips planned and possibly three more to add, in just this year alone,<br />
and I couldn't be more thrilled. Sometimes God just tells you it's the right time and you can feel it.<br />

So I hope you continue along with me on this new journey I'm embarking on<br />
as there will be lots of changes in a good way!<br />
But also, a big thank you for all that have been there and support my dream.<br />
Let me tell you: if you're going through this same feeling or moment,<br />
don't hesitate longer than you already have, set your goals in motion and don't be afraid to fail.<br />
If you let that take over, you will never know if it was all worth it.<br />

Normally I am dreading the summer heat, because living in Texas it can be crucial.<br />
However, lately that is all I can wish for because it seems the weather has been bipolar lately and gloomy days are happening way too often. So I'll take those scorching days right now over the rain.<br />
In the spring/summer, dresses for me are just as frequently worn as much as shorts/rompers.<br />
They are easy to wear and can be worn in more than one way or occasion.<br />
I've shown that in a number of posts before and I will continue expressing my love for dresses in the future, with fun ways to wear them. The combo I shared in <a href="http://www.morepiecesofme.com/2016/04/hello-monday-darci.html" target="_blank">this guest post</a> is still a recent favorite of mine (or edged up <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2016/04/utility-dress-leather-jacket.html" target="_blank">in this look</a>)! I've been trying to stock up on shorts right now for the summer but dresses are the next thing on my list. I love a good fit and flare style, sheath dress for work, or a maxi dress that screams summer. I was able to score this cute textured dress from my LeTote subscription and it's perfect for Sunday brunch or a wedding. Have you heard of <a href="http://letote.com/r/62796E/default/default/default_referral/MemberReferral/1463613793" target="_blank">LeTote</a> before? If not, it's a monthly service that allows you to wear certain pieces you loved for as long/little as you want to either purchase what you have to have or send back what didn't work out. Then repeat, repeat, repeat! I've been trying it for a few months now and have loved the pieces I've had, like this dress.<br />
If you want to give it a try, use <a href="http://letote.com/r/62796E/default/default/default_referral/MemberReferral/1463613793" target="_blank">my referral code</a> (thank you!) and get $25 off your first month!<br />

Who doesn't love a good shift dress and so why not have one in suede material?<br />
Being that is seems somewhat simple,<br />
I love the added fringe detailing on the shoulders to spice it up a bit.<br />
This particular <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=511524262&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">suede dress</a> also comes in brown and is on sale right now too, which is always a win.<br />
I thought I would go with the vibe of the look and do a side braid for my hair,<br />
which I need to do more often because I don't simply change it up enough.<br />
I also don't seem to wear flats enough but when I spotted these studded espadrille flats for a steal on <a href="http://www.poshmark.com/" target="_blank">Poshmark</a>, I could not pass them up. I think they are a perfect spring/summer staple to add to my wardrobe and comfortable enough for my upcoming travel plans.<br />
If you haven't already, look into investing in a good pair because they are a nice switch from your everyday sandals and could even add a bit of chic to a casual look.<br />
It's always great when you take something from a more relaxed look<br />
or wear in a more dressed up fashion.<br />
Although these flats that would look perfect with denim shorts,<br />
I decided why not pair them with this suede dress and added jewels for a casual chic look?<br />
Espadrille flats for the win and now I want more in my closet. Go figure.<br />

<br />
Might seem random but let me start off by saying that I can't stand those people who talk about their weight for the sake of attention, so I am not trying to be that way when I say this, but for the past month or so I have been battling with my confidence when it came to my weight/health.<br />
I would say I am a strong woman in the confidence department and have come to love my curves,<br />
but lately I've had that blah feeling that we all can get from time to time.<br />
Actually I have been going through some personal experiences that have affected it too and my weight has seemed to take a turn for the worst. I say worst, but I'm sure you are looking at these pictures like what the heck is she talking about. (Although I don't photoshop my pictures, I can still be good at sucking it in for the camera!) You're right, what am I talking about because I am not in the "worst" shape compared to others really battling with their health but hey, I know we have ALL had those moments where you are just not happy with your body because you know your body,<br />
and know when things aren't feeling just quite right.<br />
Well that was where I have been at, wearing pants and unbuttoning them as I sit down,<br />
and feeling emotionally brought down by it...and can we say lazy too?<br />
So I thought I would rant about it for a minute because I can't be alone.<br />
However, recently I have had a snap of reality to finally make some changes.<br />
Life is too short y'all and I don't want to keep on going feeling the same way,<br />
because ain't nobody got time for that, so a change is in the air!<br />
I may go into some of my personal life changes on another post but I just want to say how sometimes a piece of clothing or pair of shoes, whichever, can spark that happiness in you when you've been feeling the blues. It did that for me when I bought myself <a href="https://api.shopstyle.com/action/apiVisitRetailer?id=505172363&pid=uid2841-25074029-48" target="_blank">these amazing mesh heels</a> for my own gift turning 30, or when I got this <a href="https://www.agacistore.com/border-embroidered-floral-romper/30010-42753.html?dwvar_30010-42753_color=85" target="_blank">embroidered floral romper</a>. I seriously felt like "Malibu Barbie" in Texas, ready to take on a beach vacation. For spring/summer, rompers are my go-to piece. They are just so simple and easy, perfect for those really hot days. Style this with a denim jacket and panama hat and your good to go! That spring of excitement from getting a new romper was just what I needed for that extra motivation to make some changes.<br />
I had a little pep in my step and felt more confident saying I got this!<br />
So if you're feeling in a funk, go out and buy those shoes you've been eyeing for a lifetime<br />
or get that dress, because even though materialistic,<br />
that quick happiness may guide you to longer happiness in the future!<br />
Worry less, live life, and be happy.<br />
I cannot wait for the new journey I am taking in my life, lots of travel included,<br />
and I hope to share all that with you! New me, new blog, new everythaaang!<br />

I mean seriously, me and camo print have a thing.<br />
Anytime I see it on something, I have this gravitational force pulling me or my eyes towards it.<br />
Does anyone else get that way with camo or any other print for that matter?<br />
This shirt recently sold out but the same version in solid colors is still available and now I want to add them to my collection as I love boyfriend style of this shirt.<br />
It's perfect for those days you've had a little too much Mexican food and margaritas<br />
and want to worry about having to stuck it all in.<br />
Which by the way, is going to be me tomorrow night doing some Cinco de Mayo celebrations,<br />
eating way too many chips and guacamole washed down with some Mexican martinis.<br />
I'm sure I'm not the only one joining in on that fiesta, am I right?<br />
Not that I should be overdoing it in the food department as my body has already taken its toll,<br />
but hey whats a few more pounds to give you those extra curves around the right places?<br />
However that "extra" had me going through my closet recently and switching out some jeans that were at the point of being uncomfortable when buttoned. So I recently snagged these new skinny jeans because I needed some frayed hem action happening in my life,<br />
and I couldn't be happier with these ones. {<a href="http://express.com/" target="_blank">Express</a> just gets me in the jean department...}<br />
Ladies, if you haven't already, check out their jeans for a budget friendly option,<br />
they will give you life.<br />

Yesterday I had the nice opportunity to be a guest on my girl Carylee's blog: <a href="http://www.morepiecesofme.com/2016/04/hello-monday-darci.html" target="_blank">More Pieces Of Me</a> ...<br />
If you haven't checked it out yet, please do, as you will see one way I wore this utility dress,<br />
as today I am styling this dress yet another way, because two is better than one!<br />

<br />
One way is great <a href="http://www.morepiecesofme.com/2016/04/hello-monday-darci.html" target="_blank">layered look for work</a> or a nice event perfect for spring,<br />
but today is just the right look for those casual weekend plans, happy hour, or concert.<br />
I can't rave about this faux leather jacket more than I already have on so many occasions,<br />
when I've worn it <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2015/09/grease-lightning.html" target="_blank">here with a full skirt</a> and <a href="http://diaryofasouthernshopper.blogspot.com/2015/10/this-is-my-costume.html" target="_blank">here with some jeans</a>,<br />
but it's just one of those fab pieces I won't regret adding to my closet.<br />
I snagged it when it was on sale at the time, but I'm seriously considering getting more colors,<br />
sale or not because it's been a favorite that I have constantly worn.<br />
These boots are a recent addition too that I love, even in spring I'm still wearing boots,<br />
as they are a great pairing with dresses or even shorts.<br />
Plus no matter the season, boots are usually a go-to for me on Fridays at work for casual jean day.<br />
So what do you think of this dress worn two ways from the post I did yesterday?<br />
One for work with pastels and one more edgy. <br />
Regardless, mixing it up with more possibilities for your wardrobe is necessary.<br />
So I hope to have inspired two great ways for you to wear a utility dress for work or play.<br />
