The palm print is one of my favorite prints of the season, which is why this neon painted palm crop is my perfect tee to toss on for a casual afternoon look. I paired my crop with my high-waist white flares for a weekend trip to the DMA. I love stocking up on loose-fitted printed tees (try this, this, or this) for those days where I want to feel relaxed and comfortable, while still appearing put together. See my weekend look below, and click here to shop the look!

Layering is one of my favorite (and one of the easiest) ways to add depth to any item. This black and white grid print dress has become such a staple in my closet, due to its classic button-down shape and simple color scheme. By pairing it with this crochet kimono, I gave the dress a boho twist for a concert night in Deep Ellum. The sleeveless shape and comfort fit make it the perfect dress for any season, and I can’t wait to pair some leather leggings, a moto jacket, and some platform ankle booties for an edgy Fall night. See how I styled this mini dress and click here to shop the look:

If I had the option, I would wear the color black everyday. Excluding the fact that it matches “everything”, black is just such a sophisticated and daring color that gives you a certain attitude unlike any other color. To keep my closet from looking dark and monotonous, I love finding black pieces with a bold shape or interesting fabric that showcases the item, rather than getting lost within the color. This JOA top from Milk & Honey is just that, as the sheer grid-print fabric keeps the hue interesting. The mesh puffed sleeves add an extra dimension to the shirt, which I paired with skinny jeans to balance the oversized shoulders. Following the pearl trend (which we mentioned here), I added a gold and pearl statement necklace for a dressy and feminine touch. See how I paired my top and be sure to check out all of my Milk & Honey looks this week on their website!

When I think of trendy workout wear, Lululemon is always the first to come to mind. Girls (and guys) have fallen in love with their amazing and flattering yoga pants, and their fitness line is the ultimate collection to sport for those active days. Apart from their active lifestyle clothing, did you know that Lululemon reaches beyond fitness, and actually has pieces to wear outside the gym?
Recently Lululemon Northpark hosted an event with a handful of Dallas bloggers to help show that the collection is more than just yoga gear. We all participated in a style challenge to show how we could transition our workout looks for a night out with friends, and I had so much fun with this! With their new collections of dresses like Ashley chose and their adorable crop tops and sweaters, Lululemon now has the ability reach a whole new audience!
For my look I decided to combine three of my favorite trends of the moment: jumpsuits, cut-outs, and the 90s. By steering away from the classic yoga pant, I chose the harem pant and paired them with a cut-out bra for a look which I would wear to a yoga class. To transition from workout to social hour, I paired a flowy black top in the same material as the pant to mimic the look of a jumpsuit, making it appropriate for dinner with friends! To top of the look I tossed a 90’s inspired camo jacket around my waist and a pair of heels to dress it up.
All of the girls from the event had some fabulous looks that I would definitely wear! I was so excited that my outfit won the challenge, and I was given the entire look to take home with me! We all had such a blast at the event, and I have to say I was surprised by how many transitional pieces were in the store. Though I am still a huge sucker for the classic yoga pant, I now will be stocking up on all sorts of new pieces for my everyday wear!

Bright colors and patterns are always a favorite of ours, so we are loving these fun pieces from the new Katydid collection. Blair’s patterned cardigan is so breezy and easy to wear, and the lightweight material makes it the perfect add-on for a white summer look. Janie paired her comfy printed shorts with a colorful blouse and statement necklace to bring out the vibrant hues. What we love most about the Katydid collection is that the company is based right out of Dallas! Check out how we styled our new pieces and be sure to visit their website to learn more about the brand.
