Summer Must-Haves

Summer Must-Haves

 

 Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a lovely start to your week. Today I wanted to share with you my summer must-haves. These are my go to products that I couldn’t go without in the summer.
1. Floppy Hat – I think floppy hats are perfect for summer. They keep the sun out of your eyes while also protecting your face from getting burnt. They’re also just really cute. If you would like to see how I’ve styled hats in the past I will have them linked here and here.
2. Sunglasses– If you don’t feel like wearing a hat but want to keep the sun out of your eyes sunglasses are the perfect summer must-have. I love a cute pair of sunnies! I think the instantly dress up any outfit and make you super chic. These black cat eye sunglasses are one of my current favorites.
3. Sandals – I live in sandals in the summer. Nothing else adorns my feet other than a pair of sandals all summer long. I’ve wanted to pick up a new pair lately and I think these are going to it. I love the gladiator look and all the straps.  The colors are perfect, too!

4. Basic Cropped Tee – I am in love with just a basic plain white cropped tee. I think there is so much you can do with it. You can dress it up with a pair of high-waisted pants, a gorgeous statement necklace, and a pair of heels or you can dress it down with some high-waisted short, a pair of little tennis shoes and your hair in a messy bun. I’ve linked a couple different options because I couldn’t decide on just one, I’ll have the other one linked here.

5. High-Waisted Denim Shorts are another summer must-have for me. I own about 10 pairs of them and I wear them all the time. These distressed ones are so cute! I think they would go great with the basic white tee that I mentioned above.
6. Dr. Jart BB Cream – This stuff is the best! I have searched far and wide for a BB cream that has good coverage but was still light-weight and had a good SPF. This one has it all. It’s perfect if you’re going on vacation with an SPF of 45 it will protect you for longer than most other foundations. It lasts all day, also.
7. Tinted Lip Balm – I can never remember to put lip products on or if I do I always forget to touch it up. So most days I don’t even bother with them. However on the days when I do want something I will go for a tinted lip balm, especially in the summer. It hydrates while giving you a bit of a color. I think they look so gorgeous on the lips with just the subtlest amount of color.
8. Dresses – I love dresses. I’ve said this before but they’re so easy just to throw on and go without having to think about anything. It gets pretty hot in the summer where I live, so a dress that is nice and airy is a must for me. This off-the-shoulder one is adorable!
I hope you all have a lovely week. If you missed my last post I will have it linked here. Follow me on my social medias. They’re linked in the side bar and down below.

Off The Shoulder Bow Tie Top

Top: SheIn | Jeans: Hollister | Shoes: Target | Necklace: Charming Charlie (similar)

Hi everyone! I hope you are all having a lovely week. How cute is this off the shoulder bow tie top from SheIn? It’s the perfect top for summer with the off the shoulder and loose fit. I love the olive-green color. I don’t own many pieces that are off the shoulder but I’m loving the style. The bow tie details on the side of the sleeves are so cute.

Ripped jeans are one of my favorite pieces of clothing to wear. It gives a bit of an edgy look to things, plus they’re a bit cooler to wear in the hot summer months. My sandals are from Target, they’re some of my favorites. I want to pick some more up in different colors. I love tassel necklaces, I’m not sure what it is about them but they’re so cute! This one has an off white bauble with gold details.

I hope you enjoyed this post with my off the shoulder bow tie top. If you missed my last blog post I will have it linked here. Follow me on my social medias so you never miss a thing!

Hazlmay Handbag

Hi everyone! Today I wanted to talk about this Hazlmay Handbag.  Hazlmay is a new faux leather handbag company. They have a variety of gorgeous quality handbags.  I chose the Anna Satchel in the color Nude. Hazlmay was so kind to give me a discount for all of my readers to use. You can use the discount code: ALITTLECATTLEYA at checkout for 20% off your purchase.

I’m a huge fan of crossbody bags you can throw them over your shoulder and go while being hands free. My favorite crossbody bags are the ones that come with detachable straps like this Hazlmay one. Today I decided to just carry it because I love the look of  the handbag on its own, but I have the option to clip in the shoulder strap on if I wanted to.

You can’t go wrong with a nude, it goes with everything. I love the little details on this handbag. From the gorgeous zipper going up the front and along the top to the clips on the side. I love the way the hardware looks.

Handbags that have enough storage and pockets on the inside are a must for me. There’s tons of room on the inside for whatever you need to put in there. There’s 2 pockets where you can put your cell phone and a zipper pocket, I like to keep my makeup in that one.

I hope you all liked this Hazlmay handbag. If you would like to check out more from hazlmay you can click here. Don’t forget to use the discount code  ALITTLECATTLEYA at checkout to get 20% off your purchase. Good from May 11th to June 11th. If you missed my last post I will have it linked here.

Coral Dress

Dress: Kohls (similar,similar) | Shoes: DSW

Hi, everyone. I hope you all are having a good week. I wanted to share this gorgeous coral dress with you today. I’m in love with this dress. The flowers on the sleeve are to die for and I think it adds a beautiful elegance to the dress. Because of how it fits and is tailored, I think you could wear this to a more formal event like a wedding, but because the dress is made of cotton I feel like you can wear it to a more casual event as well. I think this coral dress is the perfect summer dress, it’s very light weight and the color is gorgeous. Dresses are a go-to in the summertime for me. I hate being hot and who has the time to spend hours trying to pick out an outfit? You can just throw them on and go while still looking cute.

I like to keep accessories to a minimum, especially during the warmer months. Because this coral dress has embellishments and is a bit brighter than a neutral, I don’t find I need to add a bunch of things to it. However, I am a sparkly girl, so I like to add at least a little sparkle to every outfit. With this I just added a small sparkly pedant necklace and these adorable shoes.

I hope you all enjoyed this post. Check out my last blog post if you haven’t already. Follow me on my social media, they’re linked in the sidebar and down below. I can’t believe it’s already May and summer is right around the corner! I’m looking forward to getting a bit more sun and swimming a ton. Enjoy your week!

Floral Scarf

Top: Local Boutique (similar) | Skirt: Forever 21 | Scarf: Local Boutique (similar , similar) | Shoes: Payless

Hi, everyone! I hope you all are having a great week so far. I love this floral scarf! It’s super colorful and very springtime. I love all the colors going on in the floral. This is a fairly large scarf but the fabric is very light which is perfect for spring. One of the reasons I love scarves so much is that it instantly adds color and pattern to any outfit. When I wear I scarf I normally like to keep the rest of my outfit pretty simple.

Aside from the floral scarf, the rest of this outfit is made up of what I would call my basics. I love this quarter length sleeve t-shirt! You don’t see many t-shirts like this very often but I would definitely consider it one of my basics. I use it all the time, especially on spring days when it’s a little too chilly for a normal t-shirt but too warm for long sleeves. A black circle skirt is a wardrobe essential for me. They go with everything! If you don’t already own one, you need to pick one up. Finally, I have my nude ballet flats. I believe everyone should own at least one pair of ballet flats, and nude is just a color that always goes.

Tie Dye Romper

Romper: TOBI | Necklace: Lucie’s Locket | Shoes: Montego Bay Club, old (similar)

Hi, everyone! I’m in love with this tie dye romper! Rompers are a huge part of my spring/summer wardrobe. Like dresses, they’re very easy to just throw on and go but with the added benefit of being shorts. If you’re new to my blog I’m going to tell you one thing about myself that is a bit of a reoccurring trend with me. I’m a huge fan of neutrals (I mean who isn’t?). There’s something very classy about black and white, especially. I’m in love with this tie dye. I’m not a huge fan of prints, I own a few but I don’t think I can pull many off. I think almost anyone can pull off tie dye if it’s done right.

I recently went shopping for new sunglasses as my last pair broke. I found these and instantly fell in love. They go perfectly with this outfit. I’ve loved long necklaces with outfits lately. The gold and black details on this one are just gorgeous. Sling sandals are my favorite for the warmer months and ones with embellishments are even better.

I hope you all enjoyed this post. If you liked this tie dye romper and would like to see more you can check out TOBI.com. Also, I did another post featuring some TOBI clothing so if you like their clothing and want to see how I style them you can check it out here!  If you missed my last blog post I will have it linked here.

Gray Cold Shoulder Dress

 

 

 

 

 

Dress: TOBI | Shoes: Target | Necklace: Charming Charlie (similar, similar)

Hi, everyone! Spring has finally sprung here, and I think it’s here to stay. This is the perfect weather for outfits like this cute gray cold shoulder dress. I love the look of the cutouts on the shoulders. It’s the perfect addition to my spring wardrobe. Shift dresses are some of my favorites for the spring/summer months. They’re very breezy and keep you cool on warm days.

A few weeks ago it was snowing and by the weekend it was 70 degrees. I’ve been quite bummed about still having to wear a heavy jacket in April, but the sun has come out and I’ve been able to trade those jacket for spring dresses. This is the first cold shoulder dress that I have owned and I am in love with it.

I believe this is the first Easter in a long time that I’ve actually been able to wear sandals. These gold ones are one of my favorites! I love the color of them. They go with so much. I love pairing a solid color dress with longer necklaces. This rose gold tassel necklace is one of my favorites. I love the color of the necklace against the gray of the dress.

I hope you all enjoyed this post. If you like this gray cold shoulder dress you can pick it up at Tobi.com. I’m in love with these gorgeous flowers blooming lately. They put me in a happy mood. I’ve posted a few pictures of my spring adventures on my Instagram if you would like to check it out. If you want more from me you can follow me on my social medias.

Neutral Plaid Blanket Scarf – Zaful

Hi, everyone! I hope you are having a good week and are keeping warm. We just got a fresh snow last night so this neutral plaid blanket scarf from Zaful is perfect for the weather. I love blanket scarves they keep you super warm and bundled while still looking cute. I received a few for Christmas this year and have definitely been putting them into good use.

These looks are some of my favorites for the winter months. They are super simple to put together and take very little thought. Yet, you always look put together with them. I paired this neutral plaid blanket scarf with some cute skinny jeans and a simple long sleeve black tee. T-shirts are great layering pieces. I have a full drawer dedicated to t-shirts in various lengths and styles. They’re so easy to throw on and go.

I hope you enjoyed this post and found inspiration to recreate your own neutral plaid blanket scarf look. The weather has been super crazy here lately. It snows one day and then the next it’s 50 degrees. It makes for choosing an outfit to be a bit more difficult. Next week it’s supposed to be in the 60’s. If you would like me to do a post on how to style the crazy weather changes in a day, leave it in a comment down below. If you missed my last blog post I will have it linked here.

Gray Zip-up Back Sweater – Rose Gal

Sweater: RoseGal

Hi, everyone! Today I’m sharing this cute gray zip-up back sweater from RoseGal. I’m in love with this sweater. It’s becoming one of my favorites. The zip-up detail in the back is just to die for. I love it so much. Of course, because it’s gray it makes me love it a little more. You can definitely dress this sweater up or down depending on what kind of look you want. I think this sweater is super flattering on many body types.

To go with the gray zip-up back sweater, I added a pair of my favorite skinny jeans. I’m in love with these jeans. They’re my favorite style. I own them in a bunch of colors. You can never go wrong with riding boots in the winter. These are my favorite, they’re super comfortable. I love how simple yet complete this look is. The necklace adds just the right amount of sparkle to the sweater.

I hope you all enjoyed this post. This gray zip-up sweater is one of my go-to anymore. If you missed my last post I will have it linked here. If you don’t already, follow me on my social media.
