Fanm Mon Summer 2023 Collection

| dress (code: marysanford20) | espadrilles | earrings (code: sanfordstandard15) | sunglasses |

I couldn’t be more excited about the latest Fanm Mon collection, Manmzel! We all know Fanm Mon for its beautiful embroidery and breezy linen fabrics, but the line introduced some new silhouettes that you don’t want to miss. After growing up in Haiti, Sophia, Fanm Mon’s founder, chose to create a fashion brand that blended nature, femininity and her culture. “Manmzel” means “her” in Creole, and this season she wants her collection to represent the true essence of a woman. I’d say she did that well!

I chose the Nazz dress for the puff sleeve, which we all know I love, in yellow, the color of the season. It’s not a color I choose often, but this combo felt like a cheerful addition to my wardrobe. Fanm Mon dresses are the perfect dresses for any celebration whether that’s a baby shower, engagement party or Mother’s Day — you’ll feel flawlessly feminine in any of her pieces!

Floral Summer Dress

| dresses: 1, 2, 3, 4 | sandals | headband | bag | earrings |

I think spring and summer dresses might be my favorite thing to buy. All the fun colors, textures, patterns and styles for the choosing! Dresses also make getting dressed easy and I think why I own so many. I work with many women who don’t feel confident when putting an outfit together, and dresses can solve this problem easily! You don’t have to think about styling a look when you can just slip on a dress and snag some shoes. Below I’ve linked a few other summer dresses I’ve been eyeing!

summer dresses: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

Thanks for stopping by today! I know I’ve been a little inconsistent with my posts, but I’m working on finding my groove in married life.

Styled Spring Looks #2

Just in case you needed a little spring inspo on this Monday morning! After a week of freezing temps, we now have beautiful sunny and 75 degree weather here in Dallas. That’s Texas for you! I’m over layers and snow boots and ready to move into sandals and sundresses. I decided to style a few spring looks to get you ready for the warmer weather ahead! Many of these pieces can be transitioned from winter to spring just depending on how you style them. Have fun shopping!

I’d also love these two tops paired with white jeans – another easy way to brighten up a winter to spring look.

Pastels scream spring, and these dresses are no different! Of course you can dress them both down with a flat sandal and denim jacket.

I love a beige or ivory jean as opposed to a white jean. These are a great way to add another neutral pair to your closet without them being white or a light wash.

Denim skater dress

| dress | wedges | headband | earrings | bag | lips | tinted moisturizer |

This dress style isn’t usually my go-to for whatever reason, but I couldn’t resist this denim number! I dressed it up Saturday night with these wedges and flower earrings for a friend’s birthday celebration, but I will also pair it with strappy sandals and a ponytail for a casual summer day. The price isn’t bad either!

Let me know what you think! XO, MS

The perfect summer dress

This might be my favorite dress of the summer! It’s extremely lightweight and flowy – perfect for those crazy hot days ahead. The ruffled shoulder and collar plus the bright pattern make me so happy. I’ll wear it with sneakers, wedges and sandals depending on the day.

Also, my sunglasses are on MAJOR sale, so be sure to check those out! I’ve worn them for the last year and a half – 5 star review!

White Eyelet Midi Dress

IMG_5195

| similar dresses: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 | headband | espadrilles |

One of my coworkers told me I was channeling my inner Laura Ingalls Wilder with this look, and you know, I’m not mad about it. I wouldn’t mind running through a field of lush grass with a basket in tow.

I love the special details on this dress from the eyelet embroidery, ribbon cinched waist and the scalloped trim. You can’t get more feminine than this! Unfortunately, this dress isn’t online anymore, so I linked some of my other favorite white midi dresses with similar detailing.

I hope you have a great Wednesday!!
