Floral Maxi & Strappy Heels

March 5, 2016

Floral Maxi & Strappy Heels Nothing feels quite like the beginning of spring like a floral print maxi dress. This one in particular, with the high slits that allow a breeze to pass through, the bright and cheery pattern, and the fluttering kimono-like sleeves.. It’s pretty much love all around. I also love that you can dress it up a bit, with some crystal-emblazoned accessories, or down, with just some flip-flops to lounge poolside.
This dress is one of the many items I’ll be stocking my closet with this summer from BohoCheri boutique. They have everything from airy tops to jeans to maxis and tanks to get you through the warmer seasons (not to mention, all of the fun festivals that are coming up!) Check out their Instagram page for more outfit inspiration.
Speaking of summer plans, there was a baby hiccup in making our travel plans to Puerto Rico. We will have to leave a day earlier than the rest of the wedding party, so Mark and I will have more time to explore the historic areas of San Juan by ourselves. I very much look forward to checking out the Castillo San Felipe del Morro (a gorgeous castle with incredible views and lighthouses), dining at places like Greengos Caribbean Cantina and Casa Cortes ChocoBar, and shopping along the Calle del Cristo.

3 Ways to Wear a Maxi Dress in Winter

January 29, 2016

Most of us have maxi dresses in our wardrobe that when the cooler weather starts rolling around, they get pushed to the back of the closet or folded in to a box or bag and subjected to a lonely life in the garage until spring comes. I’ve come up with 3 ways to wear a maxi dress in winter so you can keep your favorites in rotation all year long!

DFT- Lincoln Shrine Picks - 23DFT- Lincoln Shrine Picks - 25DFT- Lincoln Shrine Picks - 33I love this look for a date night when you want to look cute but still feel bundled up. Adding a satin ribbon over the cardigan allows for my waist to not be lost under the fabric.

DFT- Lincoln Shrine Picks - 11 DFT- Lincoln Shrine Picks - 9 DFT- Lincoln Shrine Picks - 7I love this casual look for shopping, running errands, or just hanging out! You can take any button-down, tie it up and tuck it under to add another layer and still highlight your waist.

I hope this post gave you some great ideas on how to style your favorite maxi dress, even when it’s not 90 degrees out 😉

Rebecca Taylor Print Maxi

November 12, 2015

DFT University Grads46 Dress number two from Rebecca Taylor by way of Rent the Runway. Another gorgeous print I fell in love with! The styles are also similar, with a self-tie waist-cincher, button-down front, and ruffled cap sleeves on both dresses. The maxi flows beautifully when you walk, allowing a little leg to peek out too.
This dress would actually be the perfect thing to bring on the upcoming cruise (4 days in Catalina/Ensenada) I’m planning for! I’ve never been on a cruise before, so I’ve spent my recent downtime at work researching every little thing I shouldn’t be caught without.. I’ve already locked down my “formal dinner” gown here, and only have one swimsuit so no guessing game in that department. It’s the in-between time that I’m trying to figure out dressing for. I’d love to hear your tips on dressing for a cruise!
