MY FAVORITE OUTFIT SO FAR THIS MONTH…
I’ve had lots of pieces that I’ve loved this month, but this is easily my favorite outfit from all of my April orders.
Y’all know I love Vuori pieces, and this super affordable outfit totally gives Vuori vibes, but for a fraction of the price.
First of all, this tee is stupid soft. Seriously SO BUTTERY SOFT. It’s a great mid-weight (so a bit thicker than the Vuori tees that I love), and dare I say I love these more. AND RIGHT NOW, THIS TEE IS ONLY $19.99. The Vuori Energy tee I love is $58, so this is obviously a bargain. It has the same relaxed fit, but it’s a bit longer (without being too long). You can totally wear it out without a half-tuck and it will still look great, I just happen to always default to the half-tuck. For size reference, I’m wearing a large here. I wasn’t sure what size to order because I hate a fitted athleisure tee; HOWEVER, I’m ordering a medium in the other 3 colors and am confident it will still be a relaxed fit.
I recently showed you a Vuori skort that I love that retails for $68. It’s an awesome skirt, BUT SO IS THIS ONE! And right now it’s ON SALE for ONLY $35.99. It’s got a side slit (so cute!), elastic waistband, a full belly panel, and connected shorts underneath with 1 pocket. It’s well made, great quality, super soft fabric, and very flattering. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
shirt / skort / quilted bag / sneakers (sea salt leopard)
The jacket has excellent reviews and is ON SALE right now for right at $48. Similar Vuori jackets are around $150, but none are as cute or stylish as this one. The stand-up collar! The patch patch pockets! The cropped length! The wide waistband! I LOVE IT ALL! For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

OTHER NEW ITEMS
This dress caught my eye when browsing Amazon, but I wasn’t sure how it was going to fit and if I was going to like it in person. Well, the fit is so fun (super swingy and relaxed), and I happen to love it! I also ordered the blue and green stripe and will probably end up returning this one and keeping the green one. It was very wrinkled right out of the package, but I sprayed it with my wrinkle releaser and it pulled the wrinkles out beautifully. For size reference, I’m wearing a small.
dress / turquoise earrings / turquoise necklace / raffia sandals
I know it looks like this blouse came from Anthropologie, but it’s actually from Amazon. It has a relaxed fit, a deep v neckline, and puffy sleeves with pretty pleats. I love this pink and orange combo, but I also love the “red mix” and the blue/green combo. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
striped blouse / turquoise earrings / denim shorts / raffia sandals
I think this looks like a $130 pick from Anthro, but it’s $29.99 from Amazon. The quality is top notch, it has excellent reviews, and it comes in 6 color options. The body is a great ribbed knit and the sleeves are gauzy perfection. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
blouse / turquoise earrings / denim shorts / raffia sandals
I’m wearing these earrings in all 3 outfits directly above, and I really think they are truly the perfect summer earrings.
They are super lightweight, and I love that they combine the textured raffia with beautiful turquoise beads. I’M SERIOUSLY IN LOVE and will be wearing these all spring and summer long.
turquoise beaded wrap hoop earrings / blouse
You should probably just put them in your cart right now.

The Chrisley dress is so chic. It’s lightweight, soft, and perfect for a dressy occasion. The navy is classic, but the textured details make it special and elevated. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. If between sizes, I would size up in this one if you have a larger chest. It’s a bit snug on me.

Chrisley dress / faux pearl earrings / heart toggle necklace / studded heeled sandals
This blouse, y’all! I love the colors, the darling embroidery, and the crisp poplin material. I also really like the subtle puff sleeves that are super cute, but not overwhelming. This is a good one! Love it here with denim, but it’s also going to look great with white jeans. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium. Use the code SIMS15 for 15% OFF the top.
These denim shorts are new to me. They have a 4.5″ inseam, so they’ve got a bit more length on them than the Aerie ones I’ve been wearing for a couple of years now. I mean, I’m not getting any younger, and I feel like most occasions do call for a little extra length. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
Trudy top / denim shorts / faux pearl earrings / heart toggle necklace / sandals
Well, I think it’s pretty obvious that pink with red is a favorite color combination of mine. I just think the combo is so happy! This top has a super swingy fit and flutter sleeves with a cute little trim. Again, this one will look awesome with white jeans. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

Jolie top / denim shorts / faux pearl earrings / heart toggle necklace / sandals
This dress is fun, flirty, and flattering! And I think it has some Farm Rio vibes with the bold pattern and design details. You can totally customize and cinch in the waist to your liking. This one is just a tad bit longer than I prefer, but that’s great news for you taller ladies (I’m 5’4″). For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

I actually ordered this mixed media jacket back in early March, but somehow this pic never made it to the blog. I’ll tell you this, my mom was over right after I received it, she tried it on, and she fell in love. I had planned on putting it aside and surprising her for Mother’s Day, but last week she called and started asking about it. She said she hadn’t stopped thinking about it, so she wanted the link to buy it. Just so she wouldn’t buy it for herself, I told her I had kept it for her for Mother’s Day. SHE WAS THRILLED.
She tried it on when she was here and really loved it buttoned up all the way like the model was wearing it on the site, but I think she’ll wear it as more of a jacket too (like I am below). For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.
mixed media jacket / white tee / faux pearl earrings / ecru jeans/ raffia sandals
SALE ALERT! This striped sweater is fab and just went 25% OFF. Y’all know I almost always love a stripe, and the colors in this sweater are so bold and vibrant. The sweater is super soft and lightweight, so it’s great for spring days and cool summer nights. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium.

SOME TRIED AND TRUE AMAZON FAVORITES…
And now I’ve got some tried and true Amazon favorites that are STILL IN STOCK!
This waffle knit sweater is such a great basic. It has a drop shoulder and a casual slouchy look, but it doesn’t look sloppy at all. I love the functional buttons (they are like wood or maybe cork?), and there are side slits too. It’s a waffle knit, but it’s like a waffle knit sweater because it’s got more weight to it than a normal waffle knit. It’s the perfect weight and style to help you usher in spring. For size reference, I’m wearing a medium for a slouchy look.

Oversized quarter zip sweaters are all the rage right now. The Faherty version is $168, but this pullover sweater below is a great option and it’s ON SALE right now for just under $40! It’s definitely long and roomy enough for leggings, but it looks great with jeans too. It comes in lots of colors, so there’s something for everybody. For size reference, I’m wearing a small and it still has a ton of room.

I’ve shown it in blush as well. It’s a great sweater.

You’ve already seen everything I’m wearing in this outfit, I’m just mixing and matching the pieces into this new outfit. Cute, right? Every single piece is a great basic.

And because summer is just around the corner, I’ve got several totally bougee cover-ups for you today! This one is a multicolor stripe with a deep v, and you’re going to need a drink with a little umbrella when wearing it.
Okay, who wants to look like a movie star at the pool and the beach this summer? Buy this caftan cover up, throw on this pair of sunglasses, and people will be asking you for your autograph in no time. The colors, the graphic pattern, the drapey fit, the cinched in waist…I LOVE IT ALL.

Another bougee coverup! This is the “C-Dark Navy”, and it’s gorgeous.
And this is the “ginger flower”. I think it’s FABULOUS. It’s giving Ms. Roper vibes, and I’m here for it.

That’s all for today, y’all! Have a wonderful weekend with your people!
