Long Weekend Love

Venice, CA

Happy Labor Day Weekend everyone! 

While I don’t necessarily love the idea that Labor Day signifies the end of summer, I can't deny that the long weekend festivities that coincide with this holiday are pretty great. And this year, I've decided to follow the LA trend and head out of the city for a mini vacay of sorts. Back on the east coast with family and friends, we're hitting the refresh button with an agenda that consists of: relaxing & overeating. So far, it's been pretty wonderful.

I am such a big fan of this floral off-the-shoulder dress from Forever 21.  These photos were snapped on the way to my pal's BBQ dinner the other night but really, it's been my go-to for all events lately. The colors are rich and the flowy design is ultra-flattering on all body types. It's great for a brunch date or daytime gathering but also, if you throw on a pair of wedges (and a jean jacket) like I did here-- it works well for casual dinner too.

Show A Little Shoulder

The off-the-shoulder dress. No longer just a trend, this summery silhouette has become a wardrobe essential. It's flirty, fun and unlike last season's crop top its really easy to wear. So what more could you want in a dress? I say nothing. 

The polka-dotted number I chose to wear today from SHEIN is a standout. I love the cinched waist, silky feel and ruffled details. Oh and it's on SALE now! From gingham prints to beachy daytime styles, the off-the-shoulder dress is my pick for everything summer (day or night!)
