This post has two of my favorite parts of summer: Lilly shift dresses and Jack Rogers sandals. It’s a tried and true combination. You can’t go wrong! Zappos carries both brands, and you can really create an endless number of options for outfits. One stop shop and really fast, free shipping. (Whenever I am unsure of a size for shoes, I always pick Zappos because the shipping is so fast. I order two and return– with free return shipping– the one that doesn’t fit.)
This particular Lilly dress spoke to me. The print is bright and punchy, which ended up being ideal for this somewhat overcast but still warm day. I also love that the lace detailing on the front breaks up the shift and makes it a little bit more interesting.
I have a ton of Jack Rogers sandals from over the years, but I decided to mix it up with this double strap style. While it’s a little different than the favorite Navajo sandal, it still has that classic Jack Rogers look and feel. (I’m just going to throw it out there that they’re way more comfortable and don’t need to be broken in!!)
I have been seriously considering getting those style Jacks for a while but I feel as though they look so weird on me! I have 4 pairs of the classic Navajo's – but I am afraid that these are also even harder to break in than my other ones! I see you think that they are more comfortable – but my friends said that they were harder to break in! would you recommend getting them? They look so good on you! xo, Mary thedashofclass.com
Carly – that fuscia lipstick looks *incredible* on you. What a gorgeous choice for spring 🙂
On a more serious level, thank you for the thought, insight, and honesty you put into this blog. You strike a really lovely balance between fun/aspirational topics (like Lilly and Jack) and more serious concerns, like adjusting to adulthood, managing relationships, and reaching one's potential. You are a gem and the work you do it important.
It’s October and you know what that means… Time to bring out my bring out the compilation of my greatest hits. Cute Halloween costume ideas…. Which is your fave? 🥂 Annie and Hallie from The Parent Trap 👑 Mia Thermopolis and Amelia Mignonette Thermopolis Renaldi Princess of Genovia 📚 Rory Gilmore 🎀 Samantha Parkington (The American Girl)
Taken on a much sunnier day ☀️🕶️ I used to think I could live somewhere gloomy and rainy, but… after this bout of clouds, downpours, and overall gloom, I’m realizing I wouldn’t last a week. #tuckernucking
I was so excited that @MyMyrtleBeach invited me to come play pickleball with them! I am obsessed with pickleball and had a blast playing at City Pickle, right here in NYC. We brushed up on the rules, practiced some dinking, and got to play a few rounds of the game– it was the perfect way to spend the day because everyone plays at the beach! #ad
I loved watching The Parent Trap growing up and still do to this day. It is one of my go-to comfort movies… There’s so much I love about it: the cast, the soundtrack, and (of course!) the wardrobe. We all have a little Annie James and a little Hallie Parker in us! I’ve always been drawn to Annie’s style, but love the carefree nature of Hallie’s. #parenttrap @nmeyers #tuckernucking

Wearing vs styling an outfit with a bump! I feel so much better when I’m wearing something cute (dress well to feel well maybe?)… I’ve been fighting the temptation to wear comfy clothes while pregnant though! So far I have found blazers and cardigans an easy way to dress up my second trimester bump, especially as we enter fall.

OMG I just bought a Lilly dress for my sister's graduation that is almost identical!! Mine has the lace that stops halfway down, but same print! 🙂
I love that Lilly and totally prefer the new double strap Jacks! They're darling with that dress!

You look so pretty! This dress looks fab on you and I'm totally swooning over your Jack Rogers. I've been dying to grab these but keep putting it off!
