Um, WHAT. This weekend is Memorial Day? How did this happen? I’m thrilled. I’m also thinking I need a little something new for myself to honor the occasion!
My dream would be this sophisticated but preppy strappy dress ($1,035) with these ADORABLE and AFFORDABLE slides ($125) and this cute Kayu tote ($138), and a pair of red bonbon earrings ($88).
(P.S. — You can get the gingham dress look for less with this or this.)
But, more realistic would be something like this strappy cami ($88) — LOVE — or this asymmetrical bow top ($69) with white jeans.
Or, for a super casual afternoon in the sun — this funky t-shirt ($74 — remember how obsessed I am with the embroidered tee trend?!) with some cut offs ($200) over a bathing suit ($168, and more of my favorites here).
Finish with this cute straw tote ($125).
Or, what about this striped bodysuit ($105 — or get the look for less with this off-the-shoulder style from J. Crew) with a white midi skirt ($130 — OR get the look for less with this eyelet style). Finish with one of these cute monogrammed frayed slides ($230).
More Amazing Memorial Day Picks…
And almost all under $100!!! WOOT.
P.S. For mini — how about this beyond smocked anchor dress ($110)? OR — a few of you asked after minimagpie’s sweet smocked ladybug dress she was wearing in an Instastory a week or so ago. It’s from one of my favorite affordable source for these smocked dresses — SHH, the secret is OUT! — the Etsy store Crimson Carousel, and her exact ladybug dress is here ($38). I can’t wait for her to wear this smocked crab bubble — we are from D.C., after all — and she’ll be sitting with us while we enjoy a crab feast in a few weeks!
