Pink & Blue Striped T-Shirt Dress

This week has been so great for wearing my most favorite summer clothes -indoors. Yes, I know it’s strange since the only place I’m taking those heels out are to the kitchen, but time is passing us by, and I rather have a date night at home than sit in a crowded (potentially covid infested) place with my manzz. 

The pink, blue and white shirt dress is from H&M, isn’t she cute?! Shirt dresses are great to wear with converse or heels, like the ones I have below. This dress is perfect.

My heels are from Calvin Klein, and my purse was a gift from my sister. Actually, so was this dress, ha!

My belt is from Macy’s; I’ve had it for ages. Usually I wear this belt with a pair of white pants, but today, I wanted to wear it with this dress to give me a waist 😂. I absolutely recommend getting a belt in this color. It goes great with lots of different outfits. You can wear it with light/dark jeans or dresses and never goes out of style. 

Cute, might lose it later.
Brunch date – by the kitchen.

Let me know what you guys think! Hope this was great inspo for your next date night out, or friends night out…or..just OUT!

Smart Casual Outfit: Earth Tones

Today’s outfit is a splash of earthy colors, yellow and hunter green, with some black pumps. A great casual look for the office or last-minute meetups.  Yes, even for Zoom!

The pants are from H&M. They’re pretty thick and comfortable to wear since the fabric is quite dense. Make sure you’re not wearing these pants in humid weather, or you’ll have a hard time explaining to people that you did not, in fact, pee on yourself. 🤣

The top is from Thread + Supply, it’s light, and it comes with strings inside your sleeve so you can roll them up and tie them to a button on the sides. You can find similar ones here, though, not sure if they have the added sleeve strings.

For accessories, I’m wearing the Kapten & Son Campina mesh watch in rose gold.  This watch is lightweight and makes any outfit look elegant. The gold mesh warms up and compliments my skin tone, while the small face adds to the detail. Very minimalist. Me likes.

My purse is from  Karl Lagerfeld. It’s a great size to fit your laptop, makeup bag and other necessities. It was my sisters, pretty much like everything else I’m wearing today. She’s actually the one that has excellent taste in clothes, and I relish in the hand-me-downs.

The locket is from the Firefly Boutique in Maine. I went there when visiting my partner’s family. There were so many beautiful pieces I couldn’t leave without snagging one for myself!

My heels are from Calvin Klein, from Marshall’s. I miss you, Marshalls!! I can’t tell you how many times my sister and I would run to Marshall’s to talk and shop. It was such a great bonding experience. Hopefully, things will be back to normal soon enough.

They’re so beautiful, but they are not the best for grip. You will slide face first into pavement if you aren’t careful. I recommend purchasing shoes after walking so that you can get a feel for them after they swell! 

Welp! I’m off now. I want to finish my book before Christmas so that I can review it for you.

See ya!

Kapten and Son “Chrono Silver Steel” Watch Review

With staple pieces, a classic looking watch also follows. My most worn is from a German brand called Kapten & Son.

Price: $ 289.00 USD (It is somewhat steep, but also worth the investment for the durability “testing” I’ve put it through). Did I mention it’s unisex?

Durability: Amazing, I can slam my wrists up against the wall, my desk, break my fall on it (though I wouldn’t recommend it), and it will be alright. You can see scratches on the metal from wear, but that doesn’t show up for a while (I’ve had this watch for about a year + already and am not neurotic about taking care of my things, which I kind of should be).

Size: The dial is 40 mm, which means if you’re 5’2, and your wrist is rather small, it will cover it, for the most part, a look that’s been pretty popular. 

Look: I love wearing this for business and casual wear. The Chrono tells the time, date, and apparently a stopwatch I’ve never even tried.🥲

Side view. I love the anchor detail.

Many of you may be super high tech and wear your smartwatches, but there’s something sexy about classic-looking watches. I’m not talking about those CHONKY, CLUNKY, BEDAZZLED watches that look like rocks you’d find deep in the ocean, eesh. 

I find that this Chrono watch is super versatile; it goes great with casual and evening wear. It has a rather big face, but it just looks so polished and makes my wrist look elegant. 

-See you later!
