Today’s post is sponsored by Lord + Taylor and ShopStyle. The product selections are my own, and I only highlight and promote pieces that I truly love. Thank you for supporting the brands that support Sheaffer Told Me To!
Before we get to today’s outfit, I need to let y’all know about the huge promotion that Lord + Taylor has going on right now! Lord + Taylor is having their Friends + Family event from now until 6/17 with 30% OFF almost everything and 15% OFF almost all beauty! Grab some presents for the men in your life for Father’s Day while they are on sale (I have some ideas at the end of the post) and maybe some pieces for yourself too!
I’ll get to the Father’s Day ideas in a minute, but let’s start with an outfit! And spoiler alert, EVERYTHING I’M WEARING IS ON SALE!
Today’s outfit is based on a simple and classic black and brown color palette. I’ve done “black and brown” posts several times over the last several years because it’s one of my favorite combinations. However, I know that many of you out there still have trouble mixing these two colors together.
I hope today’s post convinces you once and for all that combining these two colors actually makes outfits more interesting. Imagine the same outfit below with black shoes and a black clutch. It would be fine, but the brown tones in the bag and the shoes definitely give the entire outfit more dimension and interest.
linen button front dress / earrings / bracelet set / bamboo bag with tassel / low profile wedges
Let’s start with this dress! First of all, it’s regularly $139 (and worth it), but it’s on sale right now for $104, and the code FRIENDS reduces it to $72.97! That’s an AMAZING deal!
It is my idea of the perfect summer dress because it easy and breezy. The cut and material will definitely keep you as cool as possible on the hottest of days.
It’s linen, it buttons all the way down the front, and it’s got a gathered waist with tiny little soft pleats. The split neck and the roll tab sleeves are also really nice design details. And the best part? It has pockets! I have no idea why I love pockets so much in a dress, but I totally do. #pocketsarelife
I’m wearing a small in the dress.
The bag is a little bit quirky, and I love it. It’s also totally chic.
Quirky and chic is a hard combo to master, but this bag has done it! And it’s ON SALE.
bamboo bag with tassel / bracelet set
I mean. DARLING.
More on the shoes in a bit.
I added in some color with these fabulous earrings and this super fun bracelet set. BOTH ON SALE!
I loved this dress and all of the individual pieces so much that we moved down the street a bit to take some more pictures! See how excited I am about the pockets?
This dress is from Sanctuary, a brand I fell in love with last year when I grabbed the camo dress that you’ve now seen on the blog countless times!
linen button front dress / earrings / bracelet set / bamboo bag with tassel / low profile wedges
These wedges are the wedges you should get if you don’t typically like wedges because you think they are too high or too hard to walk in. This pair is low profile (without being a platform), and they are incredibly comfortable. The leather is buttery soft, and they are a super flattering fit.
Let’s talk about platform wedges for a quick second. I like the idea of platform wedges, but I’ve decided that they aren’t as flattering as a true wedge and sometimes give off a “clunky” look. These are the best of both worlds. They aren’t too high or hard to walk in, and they are still flattering! They are true to size.
And the code FRIENDS gets you $30 OFF the wedges, making them ONLY $69.30!

I wanted to show this dress more casually too.
You might remember these sandals and this tote from previous posts with Lord + Taylor! I love both and have been getting a lot of use out of both pieces.
linen button front dress / beaded circle earrings / bracelet set / pom pom tote / orange slide sandals
The sandals are DARLING (love the thick braided design) and COMFY! They are true to size for me, and they also come in yellow, tan, and black. Click HERE to see how I styled the sandals with a pink and orange floral maxi.
And they are only $55.30 today with the code FRIENDS.
This pom pom tote is a show stopper and really kicks up the fun level for the entire outfit. The bag is made of raw braided jute, so it has a very “natural” vibe about it (it’s not lined on the inside). It truly looks like it could have been purchased at a Mexican market! The brightly colored poms are playful and darling as well. And you guessed it, the tote is on sale!

Have you ever done a “Day in the life” post? If so, please can you share the link… If not, please consider doing one. Would LOVE to see what a typical day is like for you. From getting ready for your “photoshoots” and getting orders/sorting blog stuff and general day to day stuff. xo
