Shop and Twirl | Black and White Printed Dress

Hey there party people! I’ve been feeling a little under the weather the past few days so I’m going to keep today’s post short and sweet. I picked up this black and white printed dress while shopping at the River Oaks Shopping Center a few weeks ago. You can read more about my experiences there and see my try-on session at Em & Lee in this blog post. I was really drawn to the print on this dress because I think it’s so unique and cool. I definitely don’t have any prints like this in my closet. I also always make it a point to stock up on comfortable summer dresses for the hot weather because I prefer to wear them much more than shorts. I’ll definitely be on the hunt for more dresses like this over the next few months.

Anyway, I hope all of you are having a great week. I’ll see you back here next week with more outfit posts and a new video!

From the Archives: Summer Outfit Inspiration

Oh, summer. Today is officially the first day of summer, although it feels like summer has been here for a while already. It has been really hot and humid in Houston over the past couple of weeks. I’m not a fan of this weather, but there are certainly a lot of things that I love about summer anyway. I love having longer days, spending time at our pool, going to the beach and going on vacations with our kiddo. We’ll be heading to upstate New York next month and I am hoping it will be cooler there than it is here! This summer I am on the hunt to add some new items to my wardrobe – I desperately need some new shorts and I just picked up two new swimsuits as seen in my Instagram post here. To help myself (and you!) get inspired for the new season, I’ve pulled together some summer outfit inspiration using some of my favorite looks from my blog archives. Just click on each of the pictures if you want to read the original post. Enjoy!

This summer, why not try…

a breezy maxi dress with a topknot

mixing patterns for a fun look

a loose, drapey off the shoulder style

a bold summery dress (even better with a bold lip!)

lightweight fabrics in fun patterns

sleeveless layers to add interest without the warmth

a cute straw hat to help protect yourself from the sun

Little White Dress + Lighter Hair Color Debut!

Shop and Twirl | Little White Dress

What do y’all think about my new, blond-ish hair? I’ve had this color for about two weeks now and I think I’m finally getting used to it! It was definitely weird to see at first, but I am really loving it. I used to be blonde several years ago, but I just like changing up my hair every once in a while. To be honest, my gray roots are getting worse and worse as I get older so I wanted to go with a lighter color overall. I got tired of seeing the stark difference between my gray roots and dark brown hair only 3-4 weeks after each hair color appointment. To be completely candid, it was also a total pain to Photoshop! I’m hoping that the lighter color will blend in better with my natural granny hair, so we’ll see what happens!

Anyway, how cute is this little white dress? I first wore this in another post that I wrote detailing my visit to A Splash of Sass boutique in Cypress, TX. I’ve actually worn this dress a few times now so I figured it was time to get some proper photos of me wearing it. This dress is just so unique and cool, which makes it one of my favorite things in my closet. I don’t have anything else like it! I love the mesh overlay and the slightly jagged hem, and the white is so fresh for summer. I paired it with a white necklace and white wedges, but kept things fun with these amazing floral sunnies! I wish I knew the brand of the sunglasses, but I bought them at a boutique in Memphis and have no idea how to find them online. I did link to several similar items in the shopping widget below though, so happy shopping!
