Fashion

One thing to know about me, I’m going to get dressed.

I added a new dress to my collection from Tuckernuck and I’m absolutely smitten with it. It’s super lightweight, easy to throw on and go, it has pockets, and most importantly as a popped collar girl, the collar speaks to me. I will say it is sheer as I’m sure it is more or less meant to be a coverup but since I do what I want, I’m going to be wearing it as a dress a whole lot this season, also on the website the piping appeared more red, but it’s really more of a dark salmon pink.

To keep some sense of normalcy around here, I try my best to get dressed daily. Somedays I do the most, some the least, but my goal is always to transform out of what I wore to sleep and try to pull myself together a little bit. I love fall, and my fall fashion needs a little reboot based on the pandemic circumstances we are in.

What I’ve discovered is that I lack some of the essential basics like good quality t-shirts, sweatshirts, leggings, sweatpants and loungewear. Since my family is planning to be in the house for the remainder of the year, I would like to get rid of some of my old things to make way for new comfy fall fashion.

Here is a round-up of some looks I’ll be rocking this fall and winter. I’ve affiliate linked all of the items for your shopping pleasure, in the event you need to freshen up your fall wardrobe as well.

One of the things I hear a lot of when it comes to my clothing style is that I always look put together, even when I’m not trying. I attribute that to the fact that I love to build/layer on classic pieces. These Target dresses are the perfect affordable pieces for spring.

By themselves these pieces often look boring or bland if you will, but they create a clean slate to layer upon that gives off a simple yet put together look with minimal effort.

I plan to do better with providing resources for building a classic wardrobe that can span various seasons, doesn’t cost a lot, and will have you looking effortlessly put together.

We’ll start with these Target dresses. I plan on adding all of these to my spring wardrobe. I work from home so I don’t have the need to “dress” up per se, but these dresses can certainly be worn to work by layering with a blazer/cardigan/jean jacket, heels/boots/sandals/mules, tights and accessories

The beauty in all of these dresses is if you click through to the page, all of them come in a variety of colors. You can never go wrong with black, but adding a little color can move the intent from casual to a more structured look.

I figured my first segment of my new fashion series will highlight Target. I get most of my clothes there, I find their clothing affordable, and of good quality. If Target isn’t your jam, these are classic staple shift dresses that you can pick up at Gap, Old Navy, J.Crew and a plethora of other places. The idea is that the shape, and colors create the palette for you to create a base that can be accessorized to be as simple or edgy as you like!
