She Wears Seashells & Pretty Pretty Styles

Gals, I'm tickled to share with you the prettiest pieces from a collaboration of Jennifer Sumko & Antonio Melani for Dillards. This line is by far the prettiest and nicest I've seen in a very long time.

Each piece is made of substantial fabrics and design. They are feminine, colorful and have a touch of whimsy. By far it was the seashell prints that were love at first sight for me. I collect shells the most, amongst other nature treasures and found these patterns cheerful yet sophisticated. 

P.S. The collection includes shoes, swimwear, stationary and even matching pieces for little girls! 

I must say, I could have brought the entire collection home!

Here are the pieces I'm thrilled to wear this Spring & Summer ...


My sister also has this dress.
The fabric is light and airy.


I find the black detail quite sharp and interesting.


I plan to style this skirt with blouses/tee of many colors


This also has matching pants
Pink is my favorite color and this oversized collar is the ultimate feminine statement.
I chose jeans to show a casual pairing - but also plan to dress it up with skirts


This dress also comes in white
I added a vintage thin gold belt but also believe a broach would be lovely on the collar.

I'm in love with the seashell print and the pale pink color! 
I lan to style this too with skirt, trousers, jeans and short of all various colors.


Vivian was so excited to have this matching seashell dress!!
She loves the beach, shells and matching her Mamma as much as I do!


As an extra surprise, I gifted her this swimsuit
The sleeves are precious

When I see other bloggers working alongside designers to create pieces that incorporate their individual style it has me dreaming and inspired about what I would do!

Friday Favorites: Clogs

TGI-Summer! Only a few weeks left.  I find it bittersweet as it's been full of sunshiny fun but I have to admit I miss the routine that school being in session brings.  Sure it's more productivity and less spontaneity but my Type-A self is craving the structure! 

Fall apparel is out in full swing for retailers and while I wouldn't mind a cozy top and jeans it's still hotter than the devil's kitchen here! Boots & booties are the forever cold weather shoe but clogs are the next hottest trend.  I saw them beginning to make a come back over the past few years. I even purchased a pair of clog sandals 3 years ago for something comfortable to chase my girl around in.  This year their presence is everywhere in the traditional slip on style.

Loved these the moment I tried them on
Probably a lot to do with the new view from up so high!

Clogs have a very specific look due to their wooden platform and leather slip on style.  While typically I'd say they're have more of a boho natural look to them, paired with ladylike pieces I believe they can be very cute and comfortable.

Bonus: they give you so much height! 

Here are some of my favorite clogs ...

Peplum & Palms


Two things I love, peplum tops and maxi skirts. Put them together and bam you've got a really pretty outfit. 

Peplum tops, I love them because they're ultra feminine with the ruffled hem and retro fitted design.  And gracious do they make your waist teeny tiny. This top incorporates a modern element with the ruffled straps. I plan on wearing it with a pair of light washed jeans for a lunch or dinner out with the gals.

Maxi skirts, I love them because they're too ultra feminine with a long flowing design, They also make me feel taller and poised. I love that they cover my legs (this gives me more confidence) and can be styled dressy like this look or with a basic tee and sneakers for the every day.

I know Summer time can be so causal due to the enormous amount of outdoor living and heat, so much heat and humidity. But this outfit is still easy breezy and the right amount of dressy for any shindig you've got on the calendar.
