Dressing Room 3.12.21

Hi friends! Happy Friday! And our Spring Break officially starts today!  I didn’t think our weather would be warm enough to go anywhere, but things are looking up and it’s gonna be in the 80s!  Sooo, we’ll be heading to a resort in San Antonio for a couple days next week.  The kids are super excited and I’m thrilled Grandma can come!

Last time I took three kids to a resort for a holiday weekend by myself, I swore I’d never do it again!  The kids were great, but it was so hard to keep an eye on everyone and I ended up so stressed out!  Have you done that before?  If so, you know what I mean!

We had a good time on the blog this week sharing Flattering One Piece Swimsuits, Best Sales, Looks for Less & Tuesday Goodies.

DRESSING ROOM

Today, I have a new dressing room post for you and it’s jam packed with nearly 30 Spring Outfits!  I’m crazy for the jogger outfits and have a new pair of booty flattering jeans and jean shorts I’m smitten with.  Plus, bring on the sandals!

JOGGERS OUTFITS

First up are some super cute pieces from the latest Gibson collection and remember to use my code HONEY20 for 20% off everything at GibsonLook.

These linen – rayon blend joggers are perfect when you want an elevated style that is still ultra comfortable. I’m crazy for the soft sage color that lends itself perfectly to Spring. The joggers have a adjustable drawstring waist, double front and back pockets.

The camisole is from Loft and definitely a wardrobe staple, especially in white. It’s double lined with a scoop neck and back. It has side slits and a shirttail hem. It’s also machine washable!

A perfect cardigan for transitioning to Spring is this one with a boulce open knit texture. It has a shawl collar and curved hem, great for layering over your tees and tanks.

I’ll show you these joggers styled one more way because they’re so versatile.  This outfit would be cute for a weekend get together or add a crisp blazer to make it work appropriate.  The top is a bodysuit and I dig the way it blouses over and the tiny floral print.  It even comes with a coordinating scrunchie!

Y’all, I have been living in these joggers and am wearing them right now as I type this!  They are so comfortable, but feel a bit more like an outfit that the joggers I normally wear around the house.  Don’t get me wrong, those are a long-time fave, but these are better for warmer weather and because they’re ponte knit, they are easier to dress up.

They have a stretchy, banded waist, pockets and jogger cuffs.  I like them with an easy tee for wearing around the house, school drop-offs, grocery runs, etc.

JEANS OUTFITS

Let’s get to some jeans outfits because I have a new pair I’m smitten with!  These are by Good American and the awesome thing about them is there is NO GAPING at the waist!  They fit like a glove!  The high waist and solid darker wash create the illusion of legs for days.  You can wear them casually like here with a tee-shirt and sandals, or dress them up for a date night.

The v-neck tee is the one I shared in this month’s Loves GIVEAWAY. The contrasting v-neck trim takes it up a notch and it comes in several Spring-friendly color combos.

Jeans Fit : Relaxed fit, size 0 

These flat strappy sandals from Sam Edelman are sure to get their wear this year.  This brand is always on point with quality and comfort!  The strappy design is simple and I like this shade of brown for coordinating easily with your wardrobe.  They go really well with the Madewell belt!

We’re bringing back tie-dye in a fun navy/green/blue colorway.  This tee is eye-catching, but totally soft and easy to wear.

Here’s what I meant when I said these jeans make a great date-night outfit!  They hug your curves in all the right places without being constricting.  They do have some stretch, but I didn’t feel like they stretched out while I was wearing them.

The bodysuit is va va voom!  It’s a deep v, but also fully lined, so it’s not at all sheer.  I actually really like how opaque and slimming it is.  You could also wear this with a skirt, slacks and layer a cardigan, blazer, jean jacket on top.

The floral bodysuit you saw above looks great with these jeans too!  I just added a pair of studded slides and my reversible Tory Burch belt.  They slides are so cute!  The embellishments are just enough and the neutral color goes with everything.

I’ve been eyeing this jacket forever and it’s so good in this light color for Spring.  It’s a crop length with silver zip hardware at the front and on the sleeve.

In my last dressing room post, I shared these high-waist jeans by Levi’s that were a KEEPER!  I’ve since washed and worn them a few times and I like them even better!  The light wash is Spring friendly and they have a modern shape that I’m really liking! They’re not as stretchy as some of my other jeans, but they’re still

I found these jeans at Revolve, a new retailer for me to shop, but I’m really liking some of the styles I’ve found there.  Revolve has super fast 2-day FREE shipping.  If something doesn’t work out, they have FREE returns too!

The top is a button front bodysuit that can be worn casually with sandals or dressed up for a night out.

Similarly, this ribbed tank bodysuit caught my eye.  You have to see it in the back because it’s a slim racerback.  But, I was wondering what bra won’t show with it?? Well, I found a T-back bralette that goes perfectly without showing!

T-Back Bralette Fit : Runs big and isn’t super supportive, I bought both the S/M and M/L.  I was expecting the M/L to be my size, but it was falling off me.  The S/M was tight at first to get on around the rib cage, but ended up fitting much better.

SHORTS OUTFITS

Dressing Room Finds, Nordstrom, Denim Shorts, Sandals

Now onto shorts outfits!  I can’t believe we’re here already!  This is the pair of jean shorts I shared on Stories recently.  I like the distressed style, but even better, they have a fabric lining so your skin doesn’t show through!  And, the frayed hem has a seam, so they won’t come undone any further.

Jean shorts fit : These are a relaxed fit.  I’m wearing my true size, 25, and considered sizing down because they’re loose.  I decided to keep them because I like the relaxed fit, but I’m gonna throw them in the washing machine and dryer and see if they shrink a bit.

I found a great basic white v-neck tee for you! This one is super soft with a silky feel, with just the right amount of open neck and casual fit.

I’m so glad I bought this pullover in two colors!  This pink is so pretty, but the blue is cool too.  It’s nice and lightweight with a hoodie and rope drawstring and banded waist.  I wore the blue one after this try on and spilled my lasagna lunch right onto the chest!  Luckily, I was able to wipe it clean before the marinara stained!

Will also look so good with your white jeans!

I couldn’t resist this neutral colorblock sweatshirt.  The shorter length is cool and I liked the zip detail and o-ring pull.  It’s also incredibly soft inside!

Yay for the BlankNYC shorts being restocked!  I swear I’ve worn these shorts to death, but they’re still going strong!  They’re on the shorter side with a dark wash and some distressing.  They fit like an old glove and I still love them as much as I did when I first got them!  Do you have these already??

Shorts Fit : I sized down to size 24

This v-neck tank is another wardrobe staple and I have it in several colors, but this dark blue is new.  I think it looks great with the darker jean shorts.

Here’s that hoodie pullover in the blue stripe.  The one that got the lasagna on it.  I really shouldn’t have been eating lasagna on the couch anyway.  I made it on Monday, a whole 9×11 pan- filled it with lots of cheese, meat and sausage, plus zucchini, squash and mushrooms and my kids wouldn’t eat it. So, I’ve been eating lasagna twice a day, everyday this week!

I bought this tunic to wear with leggings, but wanted to show you it with shorts since we’re leaning that way.  It’s one of those things you love to throw on and the side slit and drop shoulder are a nice touch.

Tunic Fit : Oversized, I’m wearing XS and love it!

What a cozy hoodie sweatshirt!  Even though we’re approaching Spring (don’t forget to forward you clocks an hours on Sunday!), I still can’t get enough of relaxed fitting sweatshirts! This one has exaggerated cuffs and a v-neck, plus comes in several colors.

DRESSES

This dress will be a winner year round.  I like it now with sandals, and in the Fall with booties and a jean jacket.  You can even wear it with tights in the winter and a faux leather jacket. The skirt is lined and it has an easy breezy fit. Bonus, it’s on sale for $26 in multiple prints.

Dress HONEY20Heels

I felt so feminine and pretty in this dress!  It’s a wrap style that ties on the side with a ruffle hem and flirty shoulders. It’s fully lined and has a clip dot texture.  Wouldn’t this be a perfect Easter Sunday dress?!

Dress Fit: I’m wearing an XXS 

Dress HONEY20SandalsBracelet

I was so surprised at how comfortable this dress is on.  It feels like pajamas and the skirt rusching is really flattering, especially with the tank being a more blousy fit. You can hike the skirt up a bit if you want to wear it shorter, or pull it down.  It’s one of those styles that looks equally as good with sneakers and a jean jacket as it does with heels.  I can also see wearing it with flip flops in the summer.

You might have seen this dress before in black, but isn’t this neutral mocha color so pretty?! It has a mock neck and sleeveless to let you show off your arms and shoulders.  It skims with the body without being body conscious, and has a slide slit that makes it easier to walk in.  I love it with the studded wedges!

And on the opposite side of the spectrum, if you love a flowy dress, you’ll dig this one!  It feel great on, cool and crisp and you can totally exhale because it’s loose-fitting !  It’s fully lined and has a blue/navy/grey dots against a white background.

The LBD is back and in an A-line shape that is universally flattering on all body shapes.  This dress has a lot of stretch and movement to it, which feels incredibly comfortable on.  I like how the waist is fitted and the pleated skirt accentuates your shape. It pulls on easily over your head, without any fussy buttons or zippers to deal with.

Ooh, this is different and I’m here for it!  A 3/4 length sleeve shorts romper with a palm print in an unexpected orange color!  It’s an airy style with a button front and drawstring, tie waist. It would be perfect for a Spring Break vacay and is even machine washable!

One last office style for my working girls! This top goes easily from work to weekend with it’s smart blouse shape, but modern collarless v-neck and smocked wrists.  Can you see it for a date night too with those Good American jeans?!

You’ve seen the pants before- the barely bootcut in a high waist!  I would wear these several times a week if I worked in an office!  What have you been wearing to work lately?
