Improvise

 Top (actually a dress!): Nasty Gal // Bottoms: DSTLD ripped hi-waisted skinnys c/o// Shoes: Just Fab // Bag: Sole Society // Hat: Target // Necklace: 'Lunette' Long Pendant Necklace c/o Chloe + Isabel by Vanessa // Bracelets: 'Lunette' Open Cuff Set c/o Chloe + Isabel by Vanessa // 

 Last weekend when I was at the lake, one of the days ended up being a little cooler than I had expected. You know that moment when you realize you have completely packed ALL wrong for the weather? What's a girl to do?! Improvise of course!

This little off the shoulder dress was one of my favorite pieces I took to Mexico. I packed it for the weekend, knowing it would be perfect to wear for Memorial day, even if I just wore it as a swimsuit cover-up. I also packed my new favorite hi-waisted skinnys from DSTLD. I decided to tuck the dress into the jeans to make a flowy off the shoulder top. Add some gorgeous jewelry from Chloe + Isabel (I am OBSESSED with their newest line!), a hat and some sandals and I was ready for the chillier weather. Improvising this outfit on the fly actually worked! This was one of my favorite looks of May!

Kaleidoscope + #WIWT

 Dress: Target - maxi version here // Bag: Rebecca Minkoff // Earrings: Bauble Bar - currently out of stock but re-stocking soon! // Shoes: Jessica Simpson 'Jadyn'  // Hat: Target  // Sunnies: Ray-ban 'Erika' round// 

Since I've picked up this dress I can't stop wearing it. I couldn't believe my luck when I stumbled across it at Target for just $24! The fit, pattern and back detailing make this dress a total steal! The fun colors are perfect for summer and remind me of a kaleidoscope. With such a variety of colors, it's easy to mix with any bright accessories!  This time around I paired it with a hot pink bag and turquoise tassel earrings, but can't wait to mix and match with other bright pieces in my closet! Target is also currently carrying a maxi dress in this print, and I had a tough time deciding between the two! You definitely need to swing by and pick up one though...I promise this is a piece you will be wearing all summer!

Last week's link-up of the week is Cassie from Simply Classy. Cassie has mixed a few of my current favorites...flowy white tunic, denim shorts and espadrilles and it's too perfect. I love that she added the leopard clutch which is such a fun addition. Oh, and I am over the top obsessed with that tunic! What a perfect summer look!

My love for tassels continues to take over my wardrobe! I have had these tassel bracelets on heavy rotation lately! I love wearing them together or mixing in one or two with a different stack! 

 As the temps rise, I have been finding myself pull out my favorite pieces from Mexico! This little off the shoulder dress can be worn as a dress or a top! My favorite beach bag is also back in stock and comes in 2 different colors! I have these sunglasses in two shades and am debating on a third. They are my absolute favorite!

PJs // Spin for Perfect Spin Brush 

Getting ready for bed includes putting on the cutest pjs around and using my Spin for Perfect Skin brush. I'm loving using this brush before bed as I love how soft and clean it makes my skin feel! This powerful yet gentle brush uses a spinning motion to deep clean your skin. It is extremely comparable to other brushes around, but at half of the cost! It also comes with multiple face and body brushes to exfoliate, lift dirt and give you the perfect clean, radiant skin! Use the code 'XOASHLEY' to get the spin brush for 70% off (that's just $30!) at www.vanityplanet.com!

Evening at the Lake

Happy Tuesday!

I hope you had an enjoyable 3 day weekend. I spent my three days off at the lake, lounging around, soaking up the sun and reading! I think a little R+R is just what I needed to finish off my school year strong! Only 3 weeks left to go! While I will be SO sad to say goodbye to my wonderful first graders, I am looking forward to going into full on wedding planning mode! 

When night falls at the lake, it definitely cools down. I always pack pieces that can be easily transitioned from day to night. It wasn't super hot on Sunday, so I opted for this sweet cold shoulder  top with shorts. When it was time for dinner, I changed into my favorite jeans (which you can find restocked in ALL sizes here), and jeweled sandals. It was the perfect evening outfit for dinner with family and friends!
