Let's Play!

Playsuit

Check out my Polyvore set for links to purchase.  The romper is an amazing wardrobe staple.  It's better than a dress because you don't have to worry about the wind giving people a sneak preview of your undies (or shorts).  I love the idea of slipping into one piece and going about my day.

Which is your favorite piece?

NYC Heat Wave Summer Essentials: Dresses under $25

If you've been in New York the last few days you will most definitely empathize with not knowing what to wear on a scorching summer day.  Honestly, I've contemplated moving to a cooler climate because the heat and humidity makes me irritable.  Okay, I'm leaving Exaggeration Station (ES) now...

Below you'll find some cute, airy dresses you can wear to keep you cool during the summer months.  I'm definitely stocking up on these...
Polka Dot Slit Halter Dress $17.80 @ Forever 21
This dress is for the retro gal in you.  You can't get any airy-er than a halter top.  Pair with flats, wedges or heels to dress up.
Sleeveless Lace Dress $24.99 @ H&M
This lightweight dress is perfect for summer days.  This is definitely on my want list.  Available in colors: mint (shown here), black and white.  I want all three!  
Ruffled Racerback Dress $8.80 @ Forever 21
This is a super steal of a dress!  It's lightweight, colorful and girly.  Available in Coral (shown here), Grey and  Midnight Blue.
Marlene Dress from $48 to now $15 @ Topshop.com
The print, color and texture is great for summer.  Keep accessories simple to show off the greatness of this dress.  
Which dress was your favorite??

Jessica Alba's style usually has a bohemian twist to it.  Here, she leans towards a more classic vibe with fun accessories.  A well tailored blazer makes this outfit perfect for transitioning from day to dinner with the gals or happy hour. I compiled a budget friendly post if you want to reenact this fresh look.  I need to update my wardrobe by adding more blazers.  Sticking to neutral colors (black, grey, cream) is best for wearing with prints and solids.  You'd be surprised how one can change an outfit from being comfy-casual to sophisticated just by adding a blazer and heels (or flats).


Below are some links on different ways to wear a blazer.  Enjoy!
