Hey everyone, so this might be a little TMI and I really hope I’m not the only one, but sometimes I’m getting ready to run out the door only to realize that I didn’t shave under my arms and I’m like “crap what I do!” I usually ended up having to throw on some type of jacket, but we all know that down here in the south jackets are a no-go after May so I always like to make sure I have a few lightweight dresses with sleeves for those kind of days! I’d much rather change into a different dress really fast rather pass out from heat stroke in my jacket! The Yumi Kim Stefee Dress is precious and if you follow me on Instagram then you know I wore it to Mother’s Day dinner and while on a weekend getaway to the beach!

Wedding Guest Dress Guide

Is it just me, or do you feel like you attend a wedding, couples shower, engagement party or bridal luncheon every weekend starting in early March and all the way until the end summer? I’m pretty sure I just saw quite a few hands raise through my computer screen. That’s exactly what I suspected, which is why I have put together a Wedding Guest Dress Guide for you! You can also shop more wedding guest dresses, shoes and accessories here-> Shop Wedding Guest Dresses

Outfit: Date Night Dress (wearing size small) c/o Yumi Kim (also available here) | Hot Pink Heels (similar) | Clutch c/o Lovebirds LA

Jewelry: Flash Tattoos c/o Candy Apple Boutique | Aussie Ring & Arden Bracelet c/o Kendra Scott

First of all, I am obsessed with all of Yumi Kim’s beautiful prints, and I highly suggest you check out the rest of her collection here–> Yumi Kim Dresses | She has so many stunning options to choose from, but I especially love the Date Night Dress for my petite frame. I’m only 5 ft in case you didn’t already know! Also, I like a lot of color so I paired this dress with bright pink heels and a colorful clutch to really pull out the pink in the print. However, if that’s too much color for you, it looks great with both black and nude ankle strap heels. The black will definitely add a little more edge to the look if that’s what you want to go for and the nude will tone it down.

Just like how you can always count on a little black dress, you can also always depend on a black jumpsuit to keep you looking sophisticated and effortlessly chic. Plus, there are so many different ways to style a black jumpsuit that you can get away with wearing it multiple times in front of the same people.

Also, you can always use them as core pieces for other quick and easy outfits throughout the summer!

P.S. In order to enter the giveaway, you must comment below telling us your favorite thing about your mom, but I forgot my favorite thing about my mom! I love how she can always laugh in the middle of an argument if something is funny and it doesn’t take her long to bounce back. I also love how she always at least pretends to read all of my blog posts! Jk! Most of all, I love how she always keeps going and doing for others.  Speaking of, Mom, if you’re looking for something to do right now, my house could use some cleaning! Just Kidding! She never stops, which inspires me to do the same! Oh and the fact that no matter how old I get, she’ll always feed me! lol Her Chocolate Chip Banana Bread isn’t bad either!

P.P.S. This is a tribute to the person who was like my second mom who recently passed away this weekend: He may no longer be here with us on earth, but his spirit is still very much alive. That’s the one thing about Uncle Darrin, once he comes into your life, you can never get rid of him! He had such a lively presence and he still does. His spirit can be found in the nickname he gave you, the inside jokes you shared, the recipes he taught you and all of the traditions and memories you made together. And most of all his spirit lives on through his family: Diane Waguespack Romeo, Sydney Romeo & Jude! So remember to keep his spirit alive by cooking his favorite recipes, making someone laugh, going out of your way for someone else, finding something funny/good in every situation no matter how terrible the circumstances are, and of course by making every person you meet feel good about themselves!
