Springtime Blues!

/

We love the versatility of a great shirtdress! They’re so easy to style from weekend to work to events by just changing up the accessories. This print-happy maxi style in the prettiest shade of blue is a new favorite, and we adore that it’s from a female-owned brand and handmade in Nigeria….you can see more of the latest styles by Elisamama here and here! Other female-owned favorites we’re shopping for spring wardrobe essentials include Pamela Munson, Hunter Bell, Marysia, BURU, Julia Amory, Lake, Ophelia & Indigo, Printfresh and Mignonne Gavigan. We just shared our latest J.Crew must-haves that are inspired by style icon C.Z. Guest here, and lots of the new J.Crew styles are on sale today! We’re also eyeing the deals at Serena & Lily right now where everything is marked down by up to 30%…it’s the perfect time to get your outdoor spaces updated and ready for spring and summer!

What Would C.Z. Wear?

sweater / pants / necklace / earrings / sunglasses (outfit gifted)

We’re channeling style icon C.Z. Guest with our latest wardrobe favorites! These classic pieces have us thinking about what C.Z. would wear for a weekend in Palm Beach, from poolside brunch at The Colony to an afternoon stroll down Worth Avenue to an alfresco supper at Renato’s. These mix-and-match styles make packing so easy, and don’t forget our favorite accessories of the season: the perfect skinny belt and pearls inspired by C.Z. of course! We’re loving the cut of this cashmere crewneck, and pairing it with white linen pants is the perfect transitional spring combo. And this chic dress is our pick for the MVP of the season…it’s under $100, so comfortable, and comes in both black and white versions!

We’re just one week away from the first official day of spring! It’s time to start thinking about the perfect dresses for Easter and springtime parties, and you know we always love a fun dose of color like this neon yellow! This time of year is also when we invest in a few great handbags and totes to carry us through the season…you can take a peek at the latest bags we’re eyeing here! We’re finding lots of pretty dresses in Shopbop’s spring sale…don’t miss this hot pink puff sleeve style, this scallop-detail floral midi and this neutral striped maxi. Dressy spring styles are specially priced at J.Crew today; we love this square neck linen top, this Liberty shirtdress, this pearl button striped shirt and this contrast-trim cardigan. If you’re like us and starting to get your outdoor spaces ready for spring and summer, be sure to check out the big sale going on at Serena & Lily (30% off outdoor styles and 15-30% off of everything else). Happy shopping!

Favorite Swimwear Starting at $27!

/

Spring break and summer getaways are just around the corner so we’re busy finding the perfect swimsuits and accessories! Right now we’re loving the latest swim styles from J.Crew, most of which are currently marked down (don’t miss the deals on this one-shoulder gingham suit, this classic bikini and this gauze beach skirt!). We just ordered this linen button-up shirt that we’re planning to pair with a pretty pareo over swimwear for vacation lunches, and of course we always add our favorite straw hat and classic sunglasses. These jelly sandals are a total steal and great for the beach or pool, and we just snapped up this oversized straw tote.

Take a peek at more of the pieces we’re eyeing and buying below!
