WIW: Floral Playsuit

Jumpsuit, Playsuit, call it whatever you'd like. All I know it this little one piece is the perfect Summer get-up. 
I've contemplated trying this look for quite sometime now and basically had never found a jumpsuit that I actually liked enough to spend the money on. That is until I stumbled across this beauty from Zara. It is super light weight so it's perfect for Summer. And it can be dressed up or down with a quick change of the shoes. What made this playsuit jump out at me was the cut and print. I always felt like the all solid black ones were to urban for my style, and reminded me of J. Lo, which is so not my thing. So I was waiting on the perfect color and print one to come along. This tropical print is soft and so not overwhelming at all. I felt like I was wearing fancy pajamas or something. But I felt so put together and it only took a few short minutes to get dressed. Which is always a plus when your only given like a 5 minute window to get dressed. 
The hubs and I had a afternoon wedding rehearsal to go to and I knew this playsuit was that perfect in between fancy and casual. Seeing as it was at 2:30 in the afternoon, I definitely did not want to get too dressed up. However I can definitely see myself heading out in this outfit with a pair of dresser heels for a nice evening out. And there are so many great accent colors in this playsuit that it really can be paired with almost any color clutch too. Win! But for the days outing a pair of tan wedges was just it called for.  I wish I would have grabbed my neon clutch, but I literally had minutes to get myself together after sending the kids off with my parents. And this was the easiest thing to get to at the time.

I will definitely have to update you guys with a night time look as soon as I get the chance because I'm absolutely in love with this piece. I don't think there is another piece in my wardrobe that I've been this excited for in awhile.

What I Wore: Spring Signature Look

I hope you all had a great weekend. I wanted to start the week off with what has become my signature Spring look, unbeknownst to me, until I sat down and looked at my recent outfit pictures. I've pretty much been pulling out every skirt  in my closet lately and pairing it with a comfy tee. It's such an effortless look that works for just about every occasion from lunch dates to playdates and definitely day long shopping trips. 

As a mom on the go, I love looks that are easy to wear but look pulled together. And I think this combination is right on the mark. I feel like I can easily get down and play with the girls yet still go out and have a nice lunch with a girlfriend. Which I actually happened to do, well attempted to do. Lunch ended quite abruptly when our kids decided to climb up on the booth behind us. Ha! Life with toddlers. We quickly boxed our lunches, got our checks and left before those crazy kiddos decided to do something even crazier.

Back to the topic at hand. Another reason I love this combo, is how easy a switcheroo of the shoes can totally change the vibe of this outfit. It's such a simple and versatile look that I think works for any day and looks great.

I really hope this gorgeous weather continues because it seriously makes getting dressed so much easier. I'm a warm weather kinda girl. Getting myself dressed when it's nice out is always easier for some reason and I spend less time staring in my closet pondering what to wear.

What is your Spring go-to look?

What I Wore: Sequins + Floral

With Spring in the air and temperatures in the 80's, all I want to do is wear twirly skirts.  And this floral skirt just screams Spring. I'm not even sure how long I've had this skirt, but I do know it's one of my favorites.

 A great floral print skirt is perfect for pairing with stripes. It's a little bit nautical with a feminine flair, and I do have a love for nautical styles. Lastly, throw on a neutral blazer in a similar tone for the evenings when the temperature inevitably drops and the wind picks up. 
The Details:
Jacket: Abercrombie & Fitch [another keeper from my Brand Rep days, similar here] | Shirt: J. Crew [similar here & here] | Skirt: Forever 21 [old, similar here] | Shoes: Steve Madden via TJ Maxx [similar here] | Necklace: unknown via Nordstrom Rack [last worn here, similar here] | Bracelet: Stella & Dot | Rings: GroopDealz
