Fall Must-Have: the Sweater Dress


If there is one outfit I want to share with you guys this fall, it’s this sweater dress. This dress is everything!! It works for mom-on-the-go style, date night, weekend brunch – you name it, you can wear this sweater dress. If I were to make a fall capsule, this would be the only article of clothing in it and I’d fill the rest with accessories you can use to make it work for any occasion.
One of my favorite ways to wear it is with OTK boots and a felt hat. If this doesn’t give you fall vibes, I don’t know what will! Such a cute brunch or date night look, right?
I also love to wear it with sneakers and even put leggings on underneath and style it more as a tunic. This option is definitely school pick up appropriate or for running weekend errands with the kids.
If you buy one new thing this fall, let this sweater dress be it! You won’t regret it, trust me!!

Anthropologie is having their 20% off everything sale, so I’m making a rare weekend appearance here on the blog to tell you. Anthropologie has been a long time favorite of mine from unique shoes, to throws for the cabin, gorgeous couches, and perennial favorite dresses. Did you know, one of me and Reid’s first dates was at his roommate’s wedding? I was wearing a black Anthropologie dress and so beautiful. Amazing how a good dress can put you in a good mood. Ironically, I caught the bouquet that summer night and we were married the following spring. So, is Anthropologie a perennial favorite of mine for around 20 years? Absolutely. Scroll down for some of my hand picked favorites for 20% off today. Which are your favorites?

If you have a round face, rectangle, square lenses work the best. If you have a square shape face, aviators, butterflies or round sunnies are most flattering. As for oval, any shape works!

Spring is on the way, I can feel it! That might sound silly coming from someone who lives in Southern California, but I think spring is so much more than just the temperature. There’s a freshness in the air and all the new fashion trends start to show up! On a recent trip to Nordstrom, I definitely saw lots of fun new things for the season including this amazing black slip dress.
This dress is my perfect outfit in so many ways. First, it’s comfortable, which means I can chase all five kids around in it. Second, it can be dressed up or down. You can wear with sneakers or a strappy heel or sandal. Best of both worlds if you ask me.
And when it comes to shopping at Nordstrom, you all know it’s pretty much my favorite place no matter what I’m looking for. I can find stuff for the kids, me and Reid. Win-win! Plus their convenient order online and pick up in-store method is perfect for busy moms. Make sure to head in to check out all their amazing offerings for spring soon!
What are you shopping for this spring?

All opinions my own. Thank you Nordstrom for sponsoring this post!

I’m loving the ever versatile SLIP DRESS. It’s the answer to what to wear to a wedding, date night, concert, baby shower, birthday bash or you fill in the blank. I LOVE the fit. Here I’m wearing a small. It is a snug fit, flattering v-neck, and long flowy 100% silk material. After all, the dress is inspired by the Bar Silk Shirt. Did I mention it was super comfortable? Levi left his mark towards the end of the day and spit up on it. I wiped it clean and will take it to the dry cleaners on Monday. I should have it by humpday, just in time for the weekend to style it with a knotted graphic tee and sneakers. Because it’s all about versatility.

Here are 5 ways to style a slip dress:

  1. Knotted graphic tee
  2. Cropped sweater
  3. Blazer
  4. Knit cardigan
  5. Leather jacket under $200! or Vegan Leather Jacket (with cool moto details)

 No, it’s not too soon to think about Valentine’s Day. Afterall, it is only 31 days away. I’m the last minute kind of girl, but this year not so much. I found this LRD Little Red Dress at Rebecca Minkoff recently, and fell in love. It’s flowy, sports a flattering waistband, a nice length and I love the sleeve detail. I think it would be flattering on petite or tall, a true sign of a good dress.

I’m so grateful for 11 years of marriage, and what better time to celebrate your partner than Valentine’s Day? I’m so grateful for Reid’s sacrifice for our family. His quiet leadership, patience, and simple kindness bless our family daily. Today, I’m sharing 5 tips for a successful marriage:

1. Make a list of all his positive traits
Marriage is hard. Make it the best it can be

2. Make her HAPPY (hubby’s tip for a happy marriage) And hey, this makes me happy 🙂

3. If you’re angry, take a breather. Get alone, get a coffee and chat about it later.

What are you doing for New Years Eve? We are headed to Palm Springs to ring in the new year. We can’t wait! I usually end up in my pj’s way too early in the night and I don’t think this year will be any different — especially with a baby! But I do love a good sequin dress for date nights and events. Which is your favorite?

If dressing the bump has taught me anything, it’s invest in those flattering ever so basic basics that will carry you through 0-9 months. If you study my feed, you will notice a lot of monochrome layers, tanks over cutoffs, etc. Recently, I wore, a kimono with a black cami and black denim skirt. It’s a flattering way to feature a print. And speaking of flattering, whether you’re pregnant, planning on getting pregnant, or just want to simply better dress to flatter your shape and size, read on.

Here are my top tanks and camis in black and white! Also this one is nursing/maternity friendly and this one is on sale for $13!

 

Cutoffs and good denim are great options with tanks. I wear mine with a bella band.

 

Where do you get some of your favorite tanks? Do tell! Happy Weekend!

I had a follower ask me what slip dresses I recommend wearing for a wedding – possibly blush and able to accommodate a bump. I love getting those requests! I skimmed the WWW for the best of the rest, when in doubt, get your usual size and one size bigger for a perfect fit.

The Skinny on Slip Dresses:

 

this one is $55 // this one is under $25 // this one is under $100 (also comes in black) // I warn you, this slip dress may make you look better than the bride. Wear with caution. // slip dress for a bump //
