H&M Polka Dot Off-the-Shoulder Dress

H&M Polka Dot Dress, Off-the-Shoulder Midi Dress, NYC Fashion Blogger, How to Wear Polka Dots {H&M Polka Dot Dress & Fringe Earrings, J. CREW Straw Hat, Straw Tote, and Sandals, SALVATORE FERRAGAMO Sunglasses}

As soon as I put on this dress and straw hat, I immediately felt like a southern belle. All I needed was a big front porch and a tall glass of lemon…

I know off-the-shoulder tops and dresses have been all the rage for the past two summers, but to me this outfit still feels timeless. And that’s one of the things I strive for in my personal style – to create looks that are beautiful and stand the test of time (without breaking the bank). This outfit does just that, and what’s even better is that every item was $50 or less.

The Statement Top

{ZARA Statement Top (scroll to the bottom of this post for more options), LEVI’S High-Waist Skinny Jeans, FOREVER 21 Boater Hat, J. CREW Straw Tote, PRADA Sunglasses, TAHARI Raffia Sneakers}

If I had to sum up my style, I’d say that I gravitate towards classic, feminine looks with a fun twist. That being said, I am ALL OVER the current wave of statement tops that’s hit all of my favorite stores this season. There are so many to choose from, and they elevate even the most basic ensemble without much effort.

Dressed for Romance

Yellow Lace Sundress, Straw Clutch{H&M Lace Midi Dress (similar here and here) and Fringe Earrings, VINTAGE Straw Clutch (similar), FENDI Sunglasses, LANVIN Sandals}

 

After working from all day while dressed in leggings and a sports bra, my husband Face-Timed me to see if I wanted to meet up for an impromptu dinner date. Fifteen minutes later, I was primped, coiffed and dressed in this romantic lace frock that I scooped up last year at H&M. I’m excited to see that they’ve kept a good thing going this season with even more beautiful dresses to choose from that won’t break the bank.

I kept the look clean and simple with nude sandals and this gorgeous vintage straw clutch from the 1950s that I picked up at a random consignment shop in Tarrytown. It seems like straw handbags of all shapes and sizes have been popping up all over my Instagram feed lately, and I’ve been happy to pull my modest collection out of storage for the season.
