Shift Dress in Sea Bright



Dress  |  Similar hat  |  Jacks  |  Similar bag

Isn't it a great thing that seersucker materials are generally already striped?! I think yes!! Because look at this beautiful shift dress from Duffield Lane; it is actually the epitome of a East Coast summer dress. It is light weight, blue and white, striped, AND seersucker. Can it get any better than this? I took this perfect for summer dress down to a coastal NJ town to explore. I had been to Sea Bright many times before, but it was just to have drinks or dinner at Tommy's Tavern, or just driving the scenic way to a more southern beach. But walking around this cute, little coastal town was a blast, even though it was blazing hot out, haha!



While exploring, I walked up and down the more residential streets right off the main road to look at the beach homes, and wow. There are some beautiful homes in this area. It is great because you could  have a house on the beach side, or the bay side, so no matter where you would summer in Sea Bright, you are close to water!




A town that this painted, is going to be a cute town!! After wandering for a bit, I was a sweaty mess, and needed to cool down. I saw a coffee shop earlier, and headed that way. Before reaching coffee, I stumbled upon a juice/smoothie place. I immediately abandoned the coffee idea (shocking, I know), and opted for a cool, refreshing açaí bowl! It was topped with granola, strawberries, coconut, and a Nutella drizzle. It was delicious!!! I will have to go and try the coffee shop at some point, though because you know how I LOVE coffee. 




I love exploring this cute little beach town. I think it is considered the start of the Jersey Shore because it is the farthest north (besides Sandy Hook). The beach is gorgeous, and there is a nice elevated boardwalk that runs most of the length of town. Sea Bright is a sweet little spot that I would definitely check out! And this Duffield Lane dress definitely does well in the blistering heat and humidity in an NJ summer!!

A Thanksgiving Look

Turtleneck  |   Skirt  |   Tights  |   Boots Thanksgiving is only one week away! I am excited to go home, and spend time with my family and friends. This is a holiday that is HARD to dress for. On one hand, you want to wear joggers and a big sweater because of all of the yummy food and treats. On the other hand, you want to dress up, or slightly dress up while still feeling comfy. Hence, the big dressing dilemma: how to create the right look for your kind of holiday? I like to dress it up a little , without wearing a cocktail outfit or gown, haha. I created this look for a dressy, casual look. It is an easy outfit to put together, and I bet you have some similar pieces in your closet! A turtleneck, plaid skirt and tights is such a classic fall look that is also great for this holiday. It is kind of an easy dressing equation too because it is so easy to mix and match what you have in your closet, or buy one new piece that you know will go with an...

Coastal Grandmother Aesthetic

  Who else has been loving the  Coastal Grandmother aesthetic trend on TikTok? I've been very engrossed in this trend that is actually not at all trendy and a nod to classic style, which I LOVE. Classic summer style is one of my favorite facets of classic style- linen dresses and pants, sun hats, walks on the beach and lots of rosé. This is literally me. And I consider myself a grandmillennial, so coastal grandmother is not too far off. Some may call it coast-grand-millennial ;) ALSO, a couple of weeks ago the Today Show did a segment on the trend, and featured a clip from one of my coastal gran TikToks! These are things you need to create your own coastal grandmother aesthetic, the coastal grandmother starter kit if you will. You probably have most of these things in your closet if you are a fellow classic style lover, like myself. So lets all live our lives as if we lived in a Nancy Meyers movie, and have the best coastal grandmother girl summer. Coast Grandmother Essentials...

Tied with Tartan

  Happy Monday, friends! It is December, and that means you can catch me wearing plaid about every day. I wore this dress the other week, and have showed it on my Instagram, but it is still on sale, so I thought this outfit needed its own post! Dress | Shoes c/o (use libby10 for 10% off at Margaux ) | Headband J. Crew always puts out some of the best holiday pieces, in my opinion. I love all the of the plaids because they just feel so classic and timeless, and I know I will be able to wear them for forever. This new dress caught my eye this year: it is plaid, a shirt dress, AND has ruffles! I was instantly sold, and even more so during their holiday sales. And, it is still on sale- its 50% off with an extra 20% off with code FESTIVE! I am wearing a size small, and it is not too short on me. I do think, as with all J. Crew, that it runs a tad big, so you could definitely size down (I miraculously could have fit into a xs). It doesn't button all the way down, which I think is a ...
