The best embroidered dress

First of all, how dreamy is this backdrop? Hotel Esencia, just north of Tulum, Mexico, is the most serene place I’ve ever stayed. Iguanas greeted me every morning on my doorstep, and the private beach was only steps away. I can’t talk about this place without mentioning the five star service and the kind people who work there. I already miss Jorge’s and Rojo’s smiling faces!!

Now onto my outfit… This was the perfect dress to bring to Mexico. It was not only breathable in the intense heat but mimicked the embroidery you find on traditional Mexican dresses. I paired it with the orange straw bag and my tried and true gold espadrilles. What am I going to do when these fall apart?

The Headband Trend

Who else is loving the headband trend?! To be honest, this is my first time wearing one since about the 8th grade, and I am digging it. My coworker wears one almost everyday, and they always complete her look. I’ve linked this one above, so you can try out the trend if you haven’t already! Shop some of my other favorites below!

P.S. My jeans are on sale and quite a few sizes left! I’d recommend sizing up.

Bright Bold Colors and Asymmetrical Lines

I don’t wear a lot of red, but when I stumbled upon this dress at one of my favorite consignment stores, I had to have it. I love the asymmetrical lines, the bright bold colors and the silk material. Not to mention, I got it for over 75% off, and it still had the tags attached! That’s a win in my book! I wasn’t able to find the dress online, but I found some other fun options by the same designer, DVF.

Happy Humpday, friends!

Style a Scarf as a Belt

Hi friends! I’ve styled this scarf many times for you (1, 2, 3, 4), and today I’m showing you how to wear it as a belt. This scarf is 36 inches by 36 inches which allows me to wear it many different ways! First, click here to see how I folded the scarf. You can fold it as few or as many times as you’d like depending on how thick you want your belt. I decided to wear mine thicker, so you can see more of the pattern and color.

I hope this inspired you to wear your scarves a new way!

Y’all have most likely seen this dress before on the blog, but if not, I’ll give you a little background. I worked at Tibi in New York the summer before my senior year of college. Of course, I fell in love with the brand, and my obsession began. I bought this dress that summer, so every time I wear it, I think of that fun experience!

My favorite denim shorts

Y’all must have these denim shorts!! They couldn’t be more comfortable or have a better fit. First of all, I love the length. You won’t have to worry about your hinny hanging out. I also love that they are fitted in the waist but roomier in the thigh. I can’t stand a tight denim short. I’ve been searching for the perfect pair for seasons and finally found these shorts last weekend. I’ve linked the exact pair, so you can get your own. They run big, so make sure you order a size down! Let me know if you have any questions!!
