Crochet Maxi Dress

Hi everyone, today I’m sharing one of my resort wear looks that I wore during Miami Swim Week. I stayed at the beautiful Thompson Hotel in South Beach and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful view! Although, just wait until you see our photos from the rooftop of the 1 Hotel. Now that view is breathtaking!

As you all know, I just returned from Miami Swim Week and man was it haute! I still managed to cool down but that’s probably because I live in Louisiana where it feels even hotter! As for the people of Miami, they were all so beautiful like Greek gods and goddesses. I swear only models live in South Beach.  Ok…so maybe I’m exaggerating a tad about everyone looking like models, but I’m serious when I say it that it was hot as Haiti there! I tried to only wear lightweight rompers and flowy dresses like this ivory crochet maxi dress from Calypso St. Barth. I felt like I fit right in once I slipped it on before heading to the pool bar at Thompson Hotel. Speaking of the Thompson Hotel, it is by far the most adorable boutique hotel that I have ever stepped foot in. Everything felt so fancy there which is exactly why I was able to get away with wearing this stunning bohemian maxi dress in the courtyard by the pool. I just love the all of the crochet details and iridescent embellishment on the tassels. Normally, I don’t wear low cut tops and dress, but the plunging neckline on this maxi dress balances out with the full skirt of the dress so it works! Speaking of the full skirt, it’s lined with three layers of luxurious silk fabrics, which gives the dress that elegant and romantic look.

 

Striped Romper & Tory Burch Tote

My summer uniforms consist of oversized totes, cross body bags, cutoff shorts, kimonos, comfy sandals and easy throw-on rompers and dresses! Today, I’m sharing one of those looks which includes my striped romper and metallic sandals from Herringstone’s paired with my Tory Burch Perry Tote from Emma’s Shoes & Accessories.

You can also always shop my up-to-date sale favorites here–> Shop The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Just a few tips for you:

1) Zella Leggings are the bomb! You will live in them! Hence why they named a pair the ‘Live in’ leggings!

2) This basic little black dress is a must have! You will wear it more than you will want to admit to! The same goes for this sleeveless grey dress, which is exactly like what I’m wearing above!

3) I can’t stress to you enough how thankful you will be after scooping up a pair of ankle booties during the sale! I especially love these 2 pairs: The Joie Monte Bootie & The Vince Camuto Maves Bootie

4) If you don’t currently own a fringe accessory, get on that!! I recommend this bag–> Bronte Fringe Bucket Bag & these shoes–> ‘Staarz’ Ankle Fringe Sandal
