Pretty Pink Gingham Dress










Dress | Wedges (similar style) | Bag | Earrings | Rhinestone Cuff | Stud Cuff | Hermes Bracelet (similar style) | Sunglasses 

There's nothing that screams summer more than gingham print, and this pink A-line dress takes summer style to the next level. The bow straps are detachable, which is perfect for making the dress go the extra mile. Plus, as you can see, it has pockets! I think all that's missing is a picnic and a bouquet of flowers!

Play up the "weekend vibe" by pairing it with a cute box bag (under $25) like I did, or dress it up with some open toe heels and a colorful clutch. This dress runs TTS and also comes in navy

Black + White Stripe Floral Jumpsuit







Jumpsuit (sold out, see similar styles below) | Purse (under $40) | Heels | Earrings | Sunglasses 

Jumpsuits are perfect for summer, and are a great alternative to wearing a dress. They can easily be dressed up or down, and are perfect for the city and on vacation. 

From stripes, to ruffles, floral print and peek-a-boo cutouts, there's a jumpsuit for everyone. Style tip: your figure can often get lost when you're wearing a one-piece, so be sure to define your waist! 

 Below I've rounded up 15 super cute jumpsuits, and most of them are under $100!

Casual Style - Gucci Shirt & Belt










Jeans (on sale - under $100) | Shirt (affordable version here) | Jacket | Belt (affordable version here) | Bag (similar style) | Heels | Earrings (similar here, here and here) | Rhinestone Cuff | Bangle

I definitely am a girly girl and tend to gravitate toward dresses and feminine silhouettes. From lace, to patterns, prints and of course, pink, my style inadvertently is on the dressier side. 

That being said, I'm always surprised when I show up in a casual outfit, and my friends say to me, "I didn't think you owned jeans." Like...seriously?!? Of course I do! Truth be told, I own more pairs of jeans then I am willing to admit, and I wear them more often then my friends (and maybe my readers/followers) may realize. 

I'm a huge fan of street style, and like to try my hand at it once in a while. I wanted to double-dip in the Gucci trend that's everywhere and pair this belt with this shirt. It may be a little extra, but it's definitely a look I feel like I'd see on the streets on NYC! It would also be the perfect travel outfit, especially if you swapped the pumps for flats or even a pair of sneakers. I tracked down exact dupes for my shirt and my belt that are both under $40! Be sure to check them out here and here
