Every so often, I see an outfit on Pinterest that I love so much that I have to go create my version of it. This outfit was inspired by an image I saw of a woman wearing a denim shirt, polka dot skirt, and scarf. But since I’m more into pattern than polka dots, my version would include this Orla Kiely skirt instead.

This outfit is perfect for a spring day where the weather is a little, shall we say, transitional. (Translation: Why the hell can’t it be summer already!?!) As I’ve mentioned here before, I love a good maxi dress, and I really love it paired with one of this spring’s major trends, the military jacket.

I know that, when it comes to shorts, many women either love them or hate them. But I love shorts. I love them for summer. I love them mixed with unexpected footwear. (Like tall boots.) And I love them dressed up in a way that is effortlessly chic, like this outfit, which wouldn’t look out of place on the streets of New York.

I don’t have a chance to dress up very often, which is what makes going to a wedding so fun. (The same could be said about dancing.) I love having an excuse to wear a great little dress and heels. This navy dress is a fun alternative to black (and perfect for summer) and the lightweight scarf is a great addition if you find yourself a little cold. (Or want to cover up your shoulders in church during the ceremony.)

The ethereal quality of this maxi dress is sure to make you feel a bit like a goddess, or, at the very least, a lovely lady. (This is one of the reasons I truly love maxi dresses – even in a casual one, I always feel like the fanciest version of myself!)
I imagine wearing this to a fantastic lawn party, ideally at a historical mansion. (Or just a regular mansion. I’m not picky.)

Style doesn’t have to be so serious. Sometimes, you need a little bit of fun and whimsy. This outfit gives you a double dose with a scribbly floral print top and a whale print tote bag.
Toss on a colorful scarf and some cute wedges and you’re ready for an evening stroll on the boardwalk, with an outfit that shouts to the world, “I look good, but I don’t take life too seriously!”

Growing up, my sister was always the fashionista of the family. I was too busy hanging out in the art studio or running a student council event to be bothered by what I was wearing. 99% of the time, I headed to school in jeans and a paint splattered t-shirt. (The other 1% of the time, I’d turn up in something like a fitted, red dress. Because there’s always been a part of me looking for an excuse to dress up.)
The reality today is that my sister and I are probably equally fashioned obsessed, though on a day to day basis, she might still look a little more put together than me. Or at least, that was the case until last year, when I discovered her casual style secret.
A simple dress is just as comfortable as anything else you could possibly wear, especially when the weather is warm. And you’ll look stylish and put together, even though it only took you twelve seconds to get dressed.

My husband and I don’t always see eye to eye when it comes to TV and movies, but one show we were both into was Burn Notice. (In fact, as I write this, we’re watching a rerun now.) Set in Miami, the show was about a burned spy and his friends. As I was putting this outfit together, I couldn’t help think it’s something the show’s gun-toting main female character, Fiona Glennanne, might wear.
Of course, if running around Miami with a weapon isn’t your style, this would make the perfect outfit for a casual, spring date night.
