Spring Dresses | Easter + Graduation + Wedding Ideas

Today I am doing a reader request post all about Spring dresses.  These would be perfect for Easter, graduation and/or a Spring wedding.

First I want to share this dress I ordered last week that just arrived. I have never ordered from Shein before and I know it can be hit or miss but I really love this maxi- and it is on sale for $34.  You can't beat the price.  It is not the best fabric but honestly once you have it on it looks way more expensive than it is.  It reminds me of  DVF dress from a few years ago I loved.  I am wearing a small.



My friend Caycee has this in black and it is so gorgeous and under $100.
I have this dress in green and it is a great classic dress.  Easy to dress up or down.


This dress comes in several gorgeous colors.  Perfect for a Spring wedding.
This beauty comes in several colors and is under $70.  Size down most reviews said it ran large. 
I love the pretty colors and style of this dress.

I can't believe this beauty is only $55!  It also comes in white.  
I am obsessed with this gorgeous purple color.

I always love blue and white stripes.  Such a classic dress.

I am loving all the bright colors and flirty styles in Mara Hoffman's new spring line.  This yellow is so pretty. 

This is under $75 and also comes in white and blue.

I don't love all Lilly prints but this is one of my favorites to date.

I love this pink shade and the fun sleeves.

The back of this dress is so pretty.
also in pink and several other color options HERE.

Scenes From Our Weekend

Happy Monday. 

Friday was my birthday and I have to say it was a wonderful day.  I am so thankful for my parents and girlfriends for making my day so special.  The last year has been a rough one and their love and support has been amazing.  I am one lucky gal. 

Birthday flowers from a dear friend and the kids gave me this new Nest candle that smells amazing- the scent is White Camellia.

Ready to head out to dinner.
Outfit Details:

We ate dinner at The Grocery one of my favorite spots in Charleston.
My adorable parents.
Fried Oysters + Lamb Meatballs.  Both were so good. We ordered 4 rounds of the oysters we loved them so much.  
They were sweet enough to send me some Churros for dessert candle and all.
 The most insanely delicious dessert.  The dipping sauces are so good.

My girls, just missing my other girl Caycee who was out of town.

We ended the night at Halls with more birthday cake.  
Saturday I felt horrible.  The older I get the more I realize I can't hang and party like I used to.  I spent most of the day watching Netflix and then we had dinner with my parents. 
I found this embroidered blouse and love it.  I am wearing a small.  

Sunday we went to church.
I love how Frances Moon has her legs crossed:)
How gorgeous are these planters we saw on our walk to church?
My outfit.

We hit up Walmart and I found the best round beach towel for under $20- online HERE

Matching pj's and bed sheets.

Have a great start to your week.

Thoughts For Friday

Happy Friday!  
Today is my birthday and I am looking forward to a fun dinner out with my parents and best gals.  
I ordered this dress to wear and hoping the weather stays warm so I can wear it tonight.  If not I will definitely save it for another occasion because I love it.

Sterling talked me into letting him get a trendy haircut yesterday and I am loving it on him.

I enjoyed this wine with my parents last night. It is a fabulous Sauvignon Blanc from Orin Swift Cellars. I highly recommend it, I am super picky about Sauvignon Blancs because they can be too sweet and this one is perfect. 

I had lunch at Five Loaves this week, hands down one of my favorite lunch spots.  The ham and brie sandwich is amazing.  I also love the mushroom quinoa salad. Actually thinking I should recreate that salad for the blog i love it so much.

Dinner out with my loves.
My friend Melissa was in town from Charlotte, so we enjoyed hanging with her and her two boys.

Loving this embroidered dress I tried on at Madewell this week.
I am obsessed with these new workout pants and they are high waisted too!  They run TTS, I am wearing a small.

After several recommendations I picked this book up and started reading it last night.  So far I am liking it.  It talks about focusing on the important things in life and not wasting your time worrying  about the little things.

New wedges on sale for under $50.

If you don't follow @thebookofprosperity on instagram you should.  The quotes have really resonated with me.  I look forward to what he posts everyday.

What I Wore | Plaid Off Shoulder Blouse

Lately I have been loving plaid.  Sometimes I feel like plaid can be more geared towards Fall but I have seen some great Spring options lately.  This blouse is perfect for Spring.  I paired it with back jeans but it is also super cute with jean shorts. 


 Excuse the massive amount of wind in these pictures.  It was super windy the day we shot these pictures. 
I love the shoulder tie detail.  The blouse runs TTS, I am wearing a size small.
I know I show these earrings often but they are seriously the best!   Super light weight and they go with so many outfits.
Arm candy on repeat (and please ignore my nails, the gel nail struggle is real.  I want to peel them all off every time ).


I tried on this plaid dress yesterday and love it.  Would make such a cute Easter dress and is currently on sale and under $70.  Runs TTS, I am wearing a size 4.
