Dressing Room | Nordstrom, Old Navy & DSW

Three cheers for the weekend coming so quick! I feel like this week flew by and I tried to fit all.the.things into such a short four days! And today is the official LAST DAY OF SCHOOL!  We’ll be celebrating with a farewell car parade around the school filled with lots of honks and cheers.

I’m so proud of my kids and how well they’ve handled this transition.  I’m sure they did better than me.  I had lots of struggles and a couple of meltdowns, but they’ve been troopers.  I hope we can start getting together for some play dates soon- they both really miss their friends!

Today, I have a brand new dressing room post for you! This one is Spring and Summer styles from Nordstrom and Loft and a few new pair of sandals from DSW.

Speaking of Nordstrom, did you hear the Anniversary Sale will be moved to August this year?  It will start August 13 for cardholders and August 19 for the public.  I’m here for it!  Are you looking forward to it?

TOP SELLERS

I always love seeing what y’all like this week and here are your Top 6 from last week!  I usually do the top 5, but 6 fit in my collage better!

DRESSING ROOM

For Size Reference: I’m a shorty (5’1) and petite, weighing about 110.  I typically wear size 0p/25 jeans, XS or XSP in tops and dresses.

In these outfits, I’m wearing this Star Necklace (on sale $55) and this wrap bracelet.

Tank • Kut from the Kloth Jeans • Wedges

I finally found a true crop pair of jeans for us shorties!  They fit amazingly well with a modern blue denim and rolled, raw edge hem.  They also come in olive and pink and are on sale 30% off.

Jeans Fit: I’m wearing a 0P.  They gave some stretch, but I didn’t feel like they would get baggy throughout the day

This top is so simply cute with the crochet detail and, bonus, you can wear a regular bra with it.

Top Fit: I’m wearing an XSP 

These wedges are awesome! I like the snakeskin print mixed with the sporty white sole. They feel really well made and like they will last a long time.  You’ll be able to wear them casually with jeans or shorts or dress them up with dresses or skirts.  They come in solid colors too – 50% off.

Tank • Kut from the Kloth Jeans • Snakeskin Slides

Here’s a look at the olive top, with the Sam Edelman slides.  I swear these shoes are so comfortable and I think they are pretty chic looking too. 45% off

Top Fit: I’m wearing a XSP

Pleated Top

I’m always drawn to these boho style tops for their feminine, flirty style.  They’re so easy to wear with a flowy fit and the floral detail is really pretty.

Top Fit: I’m wearing an XS and I would prefer XSP

Jeans and peplum top

Striped Peplum Top • Kut from the Kloth Jeans •  Slide Sandals

This peplum top is a great option for work to weekend. It’s not too low cut and has an elbow length sleeve. My favorite part is the cinched waist and peplum style that is so flattering on.  It’s 40 % off.

Top Fit: I’m wearing an XS

Jeans and peplum top

 

tank and black jean shorts

Tank • Denim Shorts • Tassel Sandals

I ordered several pair of shorts from Old Navy that I really liked, but they are selling so fast- I guess because they are only $10!  I really hope this pair is still there by the time you read this!

The black is a nice change from blue jean shorts and this dark neutral will go with so many tops.  They are a very comfortable mid-rise 3-inch inseam short with a cuffed hem.

Shorts Fit: I’m wearing a 0

I also found some sandals at Old Navy and I’m impressed!  This faux suede tassel pair is darling and actually fit my foot really well.  They look more expensive than they are, so they’re a great value.

Shoes Fit : TTS

Swing Tank • Jean Shorts • Similar Shorts here & here • Clear Sandals

I love the fit of this swing tank- easy, breezy with a higher neck line and swing style shape.

Tank Fit: I’m wearing an XS

As much as I love a clear heel, clear sandals are much more practical!  I’m sure to get so much use out of these all summer.  They make your legs look longer because it almost looks like you aren’t wearing shoes!

Shorts Fit: I’m wearing a 0

tank and white jean shorts

Jean Shorts • Similar Shorts here & here

These shorts are sold out at Old Navy #boo, but I’ll look for them to restock.   I’ve linked a similar pair at Loft and they are on sale 40% off with code: SMILE

Palm Print Tank • Jean Shorts • Similar Shorts here & here  • Clear Sandals

Sizes were limited on this tee, but it’s so fun that I had to share. I love the teal color with the sunshine and palm print.

Tank Fit: I’m wearing an XSP

Shorts Fit: I’m wearing a 0

tie dye tank and white jean shorts

Tie Dye Tank • Jean Shorts • Similar Shorts here & here  • Clear Sandals

The tank is sold out in the tie dye print, but fully stocked in the patriotic star print. It would be perfect for your Fourth of July celebrations or backyard picnics!

Shorts Fit: I’m wearing a 0

Tank Fit: I’m wearing an XS

floral tank and jean shorts

Floral Tank • Madewell Shorts • Sam Edelman Slides

This top felt a little more elevated because it’s a silky material with a higher neck line that you could definitely dress up for work. It comes in more colors and patterns and is a halter style that lets your shoulders shine!

Tank Fit: I’m wearing an XSP

floral tank and jean shorts

Floral Tank • Madewell Shorts

I’m bringing back the Madewell high-waist button fly shorts!  They are an oldie but goodie and I found them available at Nordstrom Rack for just $33!

Shorts Fit: I’m wearing a 25

Floral Tank and bootcut jeans

Floral Tank • Natalie Flare Jeans •  Sam Edelman Heels • Belt

I love to show your multiple ways to style something, so here’s the same tank dressed up with a pair of flare jeans. When you tuck the top all the way in it gives you legs for days!

Jeans Fit: I’m wearing a 0P, size down 1 in these because they stretch with wear

snakeskin Tank and bootcut jeans

Snake Print Shift Tank • Flare Jeans • Heels • Belt

But, you can also wear a top like this casually untucked, and it’s a fun vibe too.  I like that this snakeskin print is subtle with a hint of lavender in it.  It’s long enough that you could even tie it in a knot if you wanted.  It’s super soft!

Tank Fit: I’m wearing an XS

Tie Dye Top and flare jeans

Tie Dye Top • Flare Jeans • Heels | White Jeans

Tie dye is having a moment right now and I’m here for it! This sweater is lightweight and has a twist front, giving you the illusion of a mini front tuck without the effort.  I’d also great for the office, espeically if you office is on the casual side and gets chilly with the AC.

Top Fit : I’m wearing SP

Tie Dye Top and white jeans

Tie Dye Top • White Jeans • Heels

I also like the tie dye top with white jeans.  This pair from AG have been a closet staple for over three years and they’re still going strong!  They are definitely a jean material and not a jegging, which makes them forgiving and very opaque. I highly recommend this pair and feel that they are worth the extra money.  I have seen them go on sale, but it’s not often.

Jeans Fit: I’m wearing a 0/25

Tunic Top and white jeans

Split Neck Tunic • White Jeans • Slide Sandals

This is an easy to wear lightweight tunic, perfect for the warmer months.  The stitching almost gives it a striped look, but I like the added texture.  It has a couple of buttons and I like that it’s slightly longer in the back.

Tunic Fit: I’m in an XSP

Tunic top and white jeans

Top and white jeans

Gibson Top • White Jeans • Clear Sandals

Of course I had to scoop up this kitten soft pullover when I saw it in this pretty teal color!  I wear this all year long, lounging at home, running errands, working at my computer and even with pajama pants!

Top Fit: I’m wearing a XSP

White top and jeans

Clip Dot Top • White Jeans  • Belt

Do you like a monochromatic look?  I thought this white outfit looked chic and breezy and the pop of orange in the sandals is an unexpected twist.

Top Fit: I’m wearing an XS

White top and jeans

Clip Dot Top • Abercrombie Jeans • Snake Skin Slides • Belt

The clip dot texture of this blouse is pure perfection with the blousy, elbow length sleeves and pretty pleats. It’s light and airy feel will keep you cool in those dog days!  It’s on the sheer side, so you might want to layer a cami underneath.

abercrombie distressed jeans

Clip Dot Top • Abercrombie Jeans • Snake Skin Slides • Belt

Do you remember these jeans from Abercrombie?!  They’re the first pair of straight leg jeans I’ve worn in awhile, but I dig the rips and holes and chewed hem.  The high waist makes your legs look super long!

Jeans Fit: I’m wearing a 24 I sized down but you could go with regular size for a more relaxed fit.

Island Time tee

Island Time Tee • Abercrombie Jeans • Clear Sandals

Anyone else dreaming of Island Time right about now?!  #yesplease

Tee Fit: I’m wearing an XS and it’s super soft

Island Time tee

tie back tank and jeans

Tie Back Tank • Gap Jeans • Studded Slides • Belt • Woven Crossbody

Here’s an easy to wear weekend outfit. The tank is the burnout style and it has a cute little tie in the back.

Tank Fit: I’m wearing an XS 

The jeans are a go-to crop length jeans that I’m always wearing lately.  I just love how they fit and feel and the darker wash goes with everything!  They have a little bit of stretch and are super slimming.  On sale for $32, but I would pay $100 for them!

Jeans Fit: I’m wearing a 0/25P

How about these Sam Edelman slides?!  They’re EXTRA with the stud detail and very well made.  I also like that they have a tiny bit of a heel on them so they aren’t totally flat.

DRESSES

Maxi dress

Maxi Dress • Clear Heels

You guys loved this dress when I showed it on my Instagram. It’s sassy with the plunging neckline, but you can still wear a regular bra with it.  They have still style in solid colors at Nordstrom, but I found almost the exact pattern at Nordstrom Rack.

Cinched Waist Jersey Dress

Cinched Waist Jersey Dress • Tassel Slides

What a fun little sundress this is!  It’s super lightweight and could almost be a swim coverup.  Or you could belt it for a different look.

Cinched Waist Jersey Dress

Cinched Waist Jersey Dress • Tassel Slides • Snake Skin Slides • Belt

Dress Fit : I’m wearing size XSP

tank dress

Tank Dress • Snake Skin Slides

I LOVE this dress! It’s just a simple tank fit and flare jersey knit dress, but it looks so good on and flows really nicely. n nIt looks so elegant and it flows so nicely. It’s under $30 and also comes in a leopard print.

Dress Fit : I’m wearing size XSP

Floral dress

Floral Print Dress • Clear Heels

I feel so elegant and pretty in this dress!  First time in awhile! The dress is fully lined with a tank style slip and the v-neck of the slip shows slightly through the sheer fabric at the chest. I love the way it nips in at the waist and then flows down with an asymmetric hem.

The sleeves are feminine and fluttery and there is a bit of gold thread running throughout giving it a little bit of sheen. It also has a keyhole detail in the back.

Dress Fit: I’m wearing an XS

Floral dress

High Low Chiffon Dress • Clear Heels

Here’s another gorgeous dress option for you! I love the pink and light blue floral print against the navy background and how it really makes the flowers pop.  There’s a coordinating tie belt and a cap sleeve, and the high low hem lets you show a little bit of leg and walk with ease.

Dress Fit: I’m wearing a 0, would prefer a 0P

Floral dress

Island Print Maxi • Clear Slides • Woven Bag

I wasn’t sure how I felt about this dress on the hanger, but I sure like it on! It’s totally giving me vacay vibes with the island inspired palm print. It criss crosses in the back with adjustable shoulders and would also be great for throwing over a swimsuit and heading to lunch.

Dress Fit: I’m wearing an XSP

striped tank dress

Striped Tank Dress • Platform Sandals

Last dress of the bunch ends with this casual style tank dress.  I’d easily wear this all weekend long and be so comfortable! It’s the type of dress you can get up and go with sandals, or wear your sneakers, tie a denim shirt around your waist or a jean jacket if it’s chilly.

Dress fit: I’m wearing a size XSP

Swimsuit

I don’t think I’ve ever had an Old Navy swimsuit, but I must say I really like this one!  From the style to the quality and darling Ikat print, it’s a thumbs up!  The bra has lightly padded cups and the shoulders tie at the back of the neck so you can adjust the fit.  It’s not too cheeky in the back.  And yes, I’m still rocking the farmer’s leg tan. 😉

Swimsuit Fit: I’m wearing an XS

Ikat swimsuit

Sarong Swim Bottom

I though this bottom was a sarong, and it is, but it’s a swim bottom too!  Meaning, it’s got a bikini bottom sewn in! I wasn’t expecting that!  But, that means there’s a coordinating swim top to go with it!

Saraong Fit: I’m wearing an XS

Ikat swimsuit

Romper • Flip Flops

A big fat YES to this romper!  Wear it alone or as a swim coverup!  I think it’s just darling and only $15! And pockets! 😉

SHOES

Spa Slippers

Slippers

YAY! My spa slippers arrived and they were worth the wait!  They are not only incredibly cute, but super comfortable!  They don’t slip around on your feet, so your feet are nice and sturdy and secure in them.  And, they keep your feet soft and cool when it’s hot!  I always wear slippers and home, and I’m so happy to find a pair that fits this warmer weather!

Slippers Fit: TTS

Sandals

3 Tone Sandals • Franco Sarto Sandals • TOMS Wedges

I found these sandals and wedges (and the FREAKING ADORABLE) sneakers below at DSW!

Keds Sneakers

All of the shoes fit TTS and I can’t wait to wear them!  First will be the rainbow sneaks for sure! Sooooo cute!!

  1. I just bought the 3 tone sandals in olive to go with those new maxi dresses from Old Navy, I have like 6. It’s so wonderful to see someone wit the same style sense as I and around the same age. I enjoy your posts daily & have been catching up on your blog. Enjoy you oodles. I took live in Houston, TX by way of Long Island & the Bronx (so you can only imagine my “accent”). Take care & keep the blogs coming.

  2. Hello, I love all of these posts because I find they are super helpful as a fellow shorty. I am curious how you decide what to keep and what to send back. I am also really curious about your closet organization. It has been awhile since you’ve done a post. How do your par down your clothes when so many of them look amazing on you? Also, I would be curious how you pack for a trip, do you make a capsule wardrobe? Thanks again for the immense amount of work that must go into all of these posts.

  3. Can you tell us the style name for the Kit from the Kloth shorty crop jeans? The link does not work. Thanks!
