Friday Favorites: Dresses with Ruffles

 TGIF! Today is very bittersweet for me. I am stepping down from leading a ministry this past year and celebrating the end of Vivian's time in preschool with her class's end of year party.  If I share more I just may start crying so let's discuss dresses with ruffles!


This dress has all the girly details in the puff sleeves, pink print and ruffled hem. Ruffled hems add a sassy touch and silhouette! I also think a pair of sneakers is casual chic with these dresses!

Here are some fun ruffled dresses ...

Friday Favorites: Dress Like a Duchess

 When it comes to styles to emulate, Princess Kate is at the top of my list.  She wears classic, feminine pieces that still have modern elements making them relatable to the common gal. 

And if you ever start to think she's 'out of your league', remember we're ALL human and put our pants on one leg at time. 

Sidenote: Sarah means 'Princess' so I was born with a love of all things fancy!

I saw this dress (sold out as soon as she wore it) several weeks ago and when pictures of Kate wearing it came out, I was tickled pink with validation that our selections had crossed paths.  Now, she's much taller than I am and has a royal beauty team so we look very different in this dress but I still feel as pretty as a princess.

Though our American lifestyle has engagements that are more backyard than royal (gracious do I love admiring her gowns) we can still incorporate pretty dresses into our wardrobes that make us feel and look as pretty as a princess.  Adding casual pieces to a pretty dress is the key to creating a comfortable ensemble that's practical. 

For example ....

 I've added a Moto jacket and booties

And denim and sneakers

And when offices and churches open back up, a blazer and pumps would be a timeless touch!

Here are some dresses that I believe are perfectly fitting for a Princess ....
