The Prettiest Maxi

Jacket: American Eagle
Shoes: Nordstrom BP 'Trolley' Leather Ankle Booties









 There has never been a more perfect maxi dress than this. This is by far the prettiest maxi I have ever worn and I don't want to take it off. It's the perfect amount of floaty and airy and fits like a dream. I am obsessed with the cut out in the front and slits in the sides. You better believe this is going to be on heavy rotation in my spring and summer wardrobe! I think I may have a new favorite online store too, as everything at Poppy Lux is crazy fantastic. I am obsessed.
We've been having some slightly warmer days, and I couldn't resist pulling on my favorite boots, a jean jacket and sunnies the second it reached 50 degrees and the snow started melting.

The Sunday Spot #22

Sorry for the late post! I've been out of town all weekend and just now got home. It's 10:35pm with this new time change, and while I appreciate the extra daylight, the loss of an hour today and traveling has me ready for bed! Enjoy my latest GroopDealz finds!

 Hippy Chic Tie Dye Maxi Skirt: Nothing screams warm weather like tie dye or a maxi skirt. Can I please take this adorable skirt on a tropical vacation with me?!

 The Arrow Ring - Gold or Silver: This is a cute little gem! I love the look of it stacked or just by itself! 

 Polka Dot iPhone 5 Case: I was definitely eyeing the black and white Kate Spade iPhone case at the Apple store today! I love that this polka dotted version ($3 a piece) allows you to buy one in every color for LESS than the price of the Kate Spade Version. I am especially obsessing over the rainbow polka dots! 

Draped Slub Opened Cardigan: I love cardigans, especially flowy ones that act as the perfect cozy addition to any outfit. This adorable cardi comes in 5 colors, but I'm really loving the mustard and blue!

Little Shirtdress

 Dress: c/o Brand + Label 
Necklace: Forever 21 - similar, also loving this chunkier version 







 After seeing multiple pins on pinterest of shirt dresses, I knew I needed to add one to my closet. It's such a classic piece that can be styled a million ways! This little Brand + Label number is a winner as it's soft and silky and the perfect length. It came with a brown belt and while it looks adorable belted, I decided to forgo the belt and style it for a chilly winter day. Leaving the belt out, the dress had the perfect flowy fit. I added the perfect chunky cardigan from Chicnova for warmth, a layered gold necklace and my go to boots, for a sophisticated yet sexy approach:)

Leather & Scallops

 Shorts: 'Scalloped Vegan Shorts' c/o Brand+Label (available at Lulu's!)
Top: Nordstroms - similar






 Have you ever planned on wearing something, but then the weather turned on you and suddenly your outfit of choice did not seem like such a good idea?

When I received these AMAZING shorts, I was beyond excited to wear them. I spent the whole week working, and a leather short just wasn't dress code, so I spent day after day dreaming of how I would wear them. Friday, it reached 50 degrees and I found myself heading home from work, peeling off layers of sweaters and long sleeves with the epiphany that Saturday would be THE day that I would bust out these gorgeous shorts. Enter Saturday. A cold, bleak, day with absolutely FRIGID temperatures. Yes, I was pretty upset that my lovely shorts would not get to enter into the world in all the glory I had planned, but you better believe that wasn't stopping me from wearing them!

These Brand and Label shorts are the PERFECT faux leather short! I have been wanting a pair for years, but have never been able to find a pair that fit me perfectly and were chic enough. Not only does this pair fit like a glove, but it has adorable zipper detailing on either side AND scallops. Thats right, these beauties have a scalloped hem! Love at first sight! I have now come to the conclusion that EVERY girl needs a pair of leather shorts! They are a new closet staple that can so easily be dressed for any occasion...even freezing winter weather!

 To style these for chilly temps, I paired them with a chambray shirt, my burgundy caring cowl, a utility jacket, sheer tights so the scalloped hem could still be admired and my new favorite boots.
Plan on seeing these pretty little things often....I'm obsessed!
