This dress is so aptly branded. I didn’t realize the name of the brand until I took it off to record it for this post, but it is nostalgia. The reason it’s nostalgic to me is that this dress was purchased for me by my mother on a girls’ trip to Eureka Springs, she also bought the same dress for herself and we proceeded to gallivant around in these matching dresses for subsequent years. This was about 15 years ago. The dress is still relevant and we both still have ours! Isn’t that fun?

One of my baby brothers is graduating from college! He has been living in the most preferable of situations. School in downtown Charleston, minutes from the beach. My mom, other brother and I are going early to spend a few days at Folly beach before the rest of the family comes in and we fete Hampton.

While trying to keep in mind the packing guides I found last week, I’ve got to plan several chic dinner ensembles & beach day looks. I’m thinking flowing dresses and big hair, stripes & denim cutoffs, bright lips.

Have a lovely week. I’ll be back may 14. xo

I love this dress. It has such a lovely fit. It’s also see-thru so you can wear a white slip underneath or black for a cold weather look (seen here). I’m also looking forward to wearing it over a swimsuit this summer. Excuse my photo-op location!

Sometimes an ensemble looks best without too much extra and other times it begs for accessories. This was one of those times. I love any excuse to utilize my rose gold and am always clamoring for more. All in all, a quintessential spring look.

This is a dress for all seasons. In August, I wore it to my post-wedding brunch. In December, I wore it with black tights. I love shape, the color and of course the bow.  Paired with a muted plaid blazer and my new favorite earrings, I thought it proved its versatility.

what I wore: tunic – thrifted, cropped pants – asos, heels – banana republic, collar – (also seen here) a gift from cheap thrills, earrings – mom’s

The colors in this tunic were really fun. It was also comfortable and billowy which made it a really relaxed, easy outfit.

I have the day off today and it is glorious! I hope your weekend is filled with loveliness.
