0:31

0:34
a little bit more casual or even a
0:37
really fun night out so let's start with
0:40
number one it is running around season
0:44
maybe many of you are headed on a spring
0:46
vacation where you know you're going to
0:48

0:55
you need something that's comfortable
0:57
easy and still looks put together this
0:59
dress from barley checks all the boxes
1:03
why do we love it knit stretchy comfy
1:06
runs a little generous i went down a
1:09
size in this one so that i could have it
1:12
be a little bit more fitted and not feel
1:13
so relaxed bra friendly paired it back
1:17
to my favorite fun sandal of the season
1:20
this is the teva
1:22
done with this awesome little platform
1:25
sole so lots of cushion the sky
1:28
really easy to pop on and yes for those
1:31
of you who might be heading to a water
1:33
park or at least somewhere with water
1:36
rides they can get wet and they'll dry
1:38
in a flash now speaking of when that
1:41
weather changes you need a fun little
1:44
layer i've got this fabulous
1:47
denim jacket from blank nyc with a knit
1:50
hoodie and sleaze
1:52
such a fun one just to pop on
1:55
denim buddy
1:57
layer up keeps you a little bit cozier
2:00
on those cooler nights but still helps
2:02
you feel put together
2:04
done and done for that knocking around
2:07
and at under 80 this dress cannot be
2:11
beat
2:12
i've got a fun
2:13
look coming up
2:15
okay
2:16
next look such a fun one this is the
2:19
anywhere dress and it's named that for a
2:22
reason it will take you
2:24
anywhere and everywhere this is an
2:27
essential
2:28
suitcase
2:29
make or break piece you can dress it up
2:32
you can dress it down make it a little
2:35
bit more casual make it a little bit
2:36
more elevated i love it for so many
2:39
reasons let's start from the top
2:41
it is poplin fabrication so nice and
2:44
lightweight and airy it comes in three
2:46
colors of course i'm showing you black
2:48
because of our theme of little black
2:49
dresses
2:51
ron's generous so i went down a size in
2:54
this guy a couple things i think are
2:55
fabulous about it is that seam that hits
2:57
you below the bust line
2:59
so very flattering a full sleeve but
3:02
still hits at that elbow and on my
3:04
petite frame
3:05
just above the knee length now airy
3:09
sophisticated and fun i'm going to be
3:11
wearing this out to dinner and drinks on
3:14
my vacation but don't think twice about
3:17
it i am also going to be wearing it for
3:18
baseball games come this summer now
3:20
pairing it back to
3:22
such a fun new brand for every laid back
3:25
london they take a fun little whimsical
3:28
tropical boho vibe in their sandals and
3:32
make them so comfortable this is this
3:35
great little black and white pair i love
3:36
the toe ring the ankle strap
3:39
crazy crazy comfy but also adds a little
3:41
bit of
3:43
genesi quoi to my outfit
3:45
brand new just came in shipment from the
3:48
specs sunglasses
3:50
aren't these so fun and we are done
3:54
i see a cocktail hour in my future
3:58
one more look coming up
4:01
last look i told you this was a fun
4:03
night out look
4:04
ribbed sweater dress from line and dot
4:07
now one of the best things about sweater
4:09
dresses is they are incredibly forgiving
4:12
and incredibly flattering especially
4:15
when done in a rib knit so love this
4:18
little mock collar here with this
4:20
cutaway halter shape
4:22
so flattering even if you are broad
4:24
shouldered like i am draws the eye up
4:27
and really creates a beautiful hourglass
4:29
silhouette
4:30
grazes doesn't squeeze so really really
4:34
comfortable and on my petite height this
4:38
is hitting me more like a midi anyone
4:40
who i would say is probably five six or
4:42
taller it's going to hit you more knee
4:45
length now how did i accessorize it i
4:47
kept it simple started with my favorite
4:50
parker clay bag i'm holding it
4:53
straight up and down almost like a
4:54
little handbag you can also fold it over
4:57
and make it into a clutch such a chic
5:00
little piece
5:01
added a few pops of black this simple
5:04
simple hoop earring
5:06
my fun bracelets and last but not least
5:09
this killer sandal from mark fisher now
5:13
one of the things i love about this is
5:14
that it almost dish
5:16
disappears
5:18
it has a mesh top
5:20
lace up around that ankle and just helps
5:23
to elongate the body and keep all the
5:26
attention on that stunning dress and
5:29
stunning you
5:31
hope this gave you some great ideas on
5:33
that lbd
5:35
exactly when to wear it where and the
5:37
ones that you need to get into your
5:38
closet asap
5:40

5:42
