Today's Everyday Fashion: Beach Day





I spent the day on the beach yesterday, and I wore this maxi for dinner afterwards! (Note: I went for nude sandals instead of the ones pictured.) Both this dress and similarly-printed top are recent Old Navy online purchases. Every so often Old Navy knocks one out of the park, and I loved both even more in person than I did online. I'm so excited that warm weather is here and I'll be rocking these pieces all summer long! Which one is your favorite?

Top: Old Navy, $25
Dress: Old Navy, $25 (maternityplus)
Shorts: Gap, $24 (similar, similar)

Bracelets: My Stella & Dot 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

  5. It looks like the prices went up on your old navy purchases since you made them but everything is at least 20% off right now!

  7. Superfun! Now these are prints I can totally get into. The shades of blue and orange are stunning and the white shorts show them off perfectly. Home run indeed! But the top is polyester? Wasn't it a bit hot and sticky?

  10. I like the dress personally - but I think the top is a little bit more casual.

  13. I love both prints, but I personally prefer the top. It is more versatile as you can incorporate it in other outfits. Can't wait to see:)

  14. I agree with you, J., that Old Navy *spectacularly* out-did themselves, i.e., with this particular top and maxi dress............ in timeless prints very similar to............ *Traditional MOROCCAN MOSAIC Patterns*!! These gorgeous patterns have really stood the test of time, "popping up" in different pieces//amounts, Fashion Season............ after............ Fashion Season!!

    I particularly like how you styled your Sleeveless Blouse; and I also look forward to seeing more ways in which you style it, (and your Maxi Dress), too!!

  15. I've been debating that dress for a couple weeks now, but I wasn't sure how the length would be on me! As a tall girl, sometimes it's hard to find maxis that are long enough. J, how tall are you?
