My Favorite $30 Summer Dress

July 21, 2021 by jessica Leave a Comment

If there’s one item you add to your next Target order, make it this dress. It’s cute, comfortable, lightweight for the hottest summer days, has pockets (!), and — best of all — it’s only $30. I’m wearing it in a medium here (which is my usual size in Target tops and dresses) and just placed an order for the blue one.

OUTFIT DETAILS

  • Dress – Target
  • Sandals – Ancient Greek Sandals
  • Bag – Kate Spade (similar; I do like the dress more with this bag, but I needed to carry more things with me while we were touring Minneapolis!)
  • Belt – Target
  • Earrings – Chan Luu
  • Sunglasses – Chimi

Shopping List: 9 Red Summer Dresses I Love

June 23, 2021 by jessica Leave a Comment

Outfit Details: Grace Atwood x The Drop dress | Tory Burch mask (other styles) | Birkenstock sandals | Paravel backpack (similar) | Chimi sunglasses (available in black) | Aurelie Gi rings (learn about the brand here)

Admittedly red is not one of my favorite colors, falling somewhere near purple for least-loved. However, nothing can beat the fiery hue when you need a jolt of color. I picked up this dress last fall (and it’s surprisingly still available in a few sizes) and hadn’t worn it outside of a Zoom call up until our trip to Charleston in April. I have a renewed appreciate for the color and found myself browsing for other red dresses recently. Here are nine of my favorites:

  1. A dress with a classic fit-and-flare silhouette.
  2. Pair this cute mini with white sneakers.
  3. I adore the smocked top of this eyelet dress.
  4. This cotton voile option would be pretty over a swimsuit and out for cocktails.
  5. This dress has the prettiest woven striped detail.
  6. Ruffled straps add interest to an otherwise simple maxi dress.
  7. A tiered cotton dress that’s perfect for the hottest days.
  8. A long-sleeve option with a plunging neckline.
  9. While it’s a splurge, you’ll wear this tunic dress each summer for years.

Love Delicate Layered Jewelry? Here’s the Brand You Need to Know! (Plus, a Discount Code!)

April 23, 2021 by jessica Leave a Comment

If you’re a longtime reader, you know that I my love of jewelry runs deep. I am a self-proclaimed magpie and I can’t resist adding new pieces to my collection regularly. Lately I’ve been drawn to classic, elegant pieces that are subtle and sophisticated on their own, but can be layered with statement-making gems.

I was recently introduced to a brand called Aurelie GI that specializes in those wear-with-everything pieces. It’s a U.S.-based jeweler that offers 14K gold pieces handcrafted with recycled precious metals. (Whenever we can marry style with sustainability, I’m on board!) The collection includes rings, earrings (both pairs and singles), bracelets, necklaces, and pendants (like this sweet “Mama” pendant just in time for Mother’s Day); and there are items studded with diamonds and semiprecious stones.

I chose the Effie oval band for its unique organic design and the textured Regalia band. As you’ll see below, they’re perfect for layering with one another or wearing on different fingers while mixing and matching with other jewelry items in your collection. If color is more your speed, the brand also has beautiful turquoise items like this stacking ring.

I’ve been wearing these rings nearly each day since they arrived three weeks ago and I’m impressed with the quality. I had a thin gold band years ago and it didn’t take much to bend it out of shape. These, however, are solid and the quality does support the price point.

And, while we’re on the topic of price, you can save 20% with code Jessica20 through the end of 2021!

Dress: Anthropologie (true to size; I’m wearing a medium)
Bag: Gucci (see what fits inside here)
Sneakers: Nike (also available here)
Rings: c/o Aurelie Gi (this one and this one) – Plus, save 20% with code Jessica20 through Dec. 31, 2021!
Bracelet: vintage (I adore this bracelet, though!)

Summer MVPs

Madewell ruffle strap polka dot dress

With exception of the jumpsuit I wore in Portugal, this is my first outfit post of the year! I figured that now we’re on the cusp of Labor Day, I may as well show you an outfit that pretty much sums up what I’ve been wearing all summer: the sandals I’ve had wish listed for nearly three years and finally bought (worth every penny), a breezy prom dress, oversize rings by way of the moonstone beauties here and here (both c/o; also have this one), and that tote that probably has just a few weeks left before everyone grows tired of the PVC trend (but it’s on sale if you’re still digging it).

12 Jumpsuits That are Perfect for Summer

June 13, 2019 by jessica Leave a Comment

Lisbon Azulejos Museum

Wearing: Loft jumpsuit (similar; still available in plus sizes) | Paravel backpack (also love this one) | Prada sunglasses (similar) | hoop earrings (similar) | House of Harlow bracelet (similar) | Lisbon sunburn 😉


This jumpsuit was one of my favorite things to wear on our trip to Portugal, especially in Lisbon. It was often breezy being situated right on the River Tagus and I hate wrestling with the hemline of a dress that’s flirting with the wind. Thus, a lightweight jumpsuit on the warmest days. Below, I’ve rounded up 12 of my favorite jumpsuits for the season!

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.

While it claims to be the most haunted place in Europe and is dubbed the city of a thousand ghosts, we only encountered the wire-mesh sculptures of Ghosts in the Gardens (@the_york_bid) and the family of souvenir ghosts I brought home from @yorkghostmerchants.
