So excited that this color way (in the shoes) has been restocked!!!  It’s my favorite color option they have.  They are very comfortable considering how high the heels are.  Plus the best part is you tie the tassels for the perfect fit…and don’t need to touch it again (zipper in the back…wahoooo!).  This is one of the looks I will be packing for my upcoming business trip to Dallas.  I was so honored to be invited by Reward Style for their annual conference… and can’t wait to share my travels with you.  xoxo.   You can shop this post below…

My husband and I had a business conference in downtown San Diego

…and we couldn’t have asked for better weather!

Went to Seasons 52 in Seaport village for our lunch break…

and took a 5 min stop to snap some pics.

Dress down any look with some fresh white tennies

I’m a sucker for Madewell’s leather.  Quality is on point

Love this neckline.  And those details….

 Hope you love this top if you buy it… btw it also comes in a pretty blue.

The blue would look great paired with white skinny jeans.

Love this white Tee! It has so much style just on it’s own.  The sides are slightly gathered and the neckline is a bit wider so you can either cover both shoulders…or wear it like I did, exposing one shoulder.  (btw: I wore a grey wifebeater tank underneath…and my regular bra).   Throw on a statement necklace and you can getaway wearing a Tee for date night.

FYI: The reviews online for this top are not all A++.  But I personally really love the fit.

The rings I’m wearing are from HoneyBee Boutique….you can shop them here.

You can shop these exact pieces below….  xoxo

When I think of the brand Kate Spade NY I think of the word HAPPY.  And as you can see their Spring color pallet is exactly that.  With the pretty yellows, whites…and love the black striped accents!  Some of these pieces will be perfect for an upcoming baby shower, wedding, vacation…or even a Sunday brunch.   You can shop this clothing rack below….  Hope you have a great day! xx

I’ve had my eye on these fringe heels for a while now…and waited until they finally went on sale!  So excited to share that they are 43% off right now!!  These will be fun to wear with a dress or skinny jeans.  I dressed up boyfriend jeans and a plain white Tee in tonights post.   You can shop these fringe shoes here or below.  And btw: these run true to size…but if you’re in-between size down.  Happy shopping!!

I’ve been a big fan of VIX SWIM for years and years

I love how their swim wear and coverups are chic and sophisticated

…and I do love the quality.

I actually have some VIX pieces from 7 years ago (no joke)…that I still wear!!

Spring is in the air…which means warmer weather and pool time is near!

You can shop this coverup here & these are some others I have my eye on…

My daughter insisted she wear her white dress over her suit to match my white coverup

She has my heart ♥

An easy thing to throw on when you’re at the pool with kids and family

…and still keep your style!

Waist has a nice drawstring…so you can make it as tight or loose as you’d like!

Thank you so much for reading my blog…I’m so thankful for you!

Love the combo of White and Black.  Such a classic pairing.  The base of this look is all black…with the skinny jeans and solid black pineapple top (one of my favorites!!).  I especially love the neckline.  I brightened up this all black look with white flats, a white cross body handbag and a fresh white blazer.

My mom and I took my son to the play, Wizard of Oz last weekend.  It was such a great show!

Afterward we walked around Little Italy to find ice cream.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog!

My kids always laugh when I say WHITE is my favorite color

“thats not a real color mommy” -♥

When you dress monochromatic it elongates your figure

…your eye has no hard lines to stop at.

For visual interest add different textures in the same color family

This top is super feminine and flowy ♥

 By pairing the white top with white bottoms you can create the idea of a 1 piece outfit.

Again easier on the eyes…

This tassel bracelet and ring adds just the perfect amount…

These crotchet shorts are from Anthro last summer

…but I found some on eBay for you! (here)

I also linked some similar options below

I’ve been wearing these sandals 24/7.  They come in lots of other color ways too!

  TIP: the sleeves are very voluminous on this top…so I pulled the sleeves up to create a shorter sleeve.

Thank you for reading my blog…you can shop the rest of this post below!  xx

These Zara white tennis shoes are perfect if you want to dress down a look

 I dressed up this look by adding a statement necklace over this basic tank.  And I dressed down the look by adding a casual trucker hat.

This hat is from a cute little shop in Encinitas called Bliss 101

“Wherever you are…be all there”  -Jim Elliott

The new dress arrivals at Anthropologie have me so excited for Spring and warmer weather!!  I was so honored to team up with Anthro to give away a dress of choice to one lucky winner by having them share their most memorable dress moment.  Thanks to all that shared their stories!  Some made me laugh out loud and others brought a happy tear.  To read some of these stories you can head to my instagram (@stylinbyaylin) and find them in the comments below this dress.

Freshen up your wardrobe with white accessories.  This watch will brighten up even dingy jeans and a plain grey t-shirt.  This clutch/wallet is easy to carry and is perfect for just your cell and credit cards.

Freshen up your look with white/off-white nail polish.

I’m wearing “sweet-tooth” by Urban Outfitters.

And can’t get enough of this ring… makes a statement all on it’s own.

Freshen up your jewelry box with these stunner chandelier earrings! (avail here.)

When pulling together your outfit…lay it out on your bed.  Place the accessories, jewelry, shoes, handbags on top.  And don’t forget to layout your sunglasses too.  Depending on the style of sunnies…they might be a statement enough.  Play around with your look until it feels balanced.  For example I originally had a statement necklace (here) that I was going to wear with this dress.  Love, love this necklace…but after laying it out if felt too heavy for the look I was going for.  Keeping the neckline plain and adding the statement earrings was enough to add some style without going overboard.  #lessismore

Freshen up your shoe collection with some Fringe Sandals!  It adds a little boho to your look without looking like you tried too hard.  Here are some of my current favorites below….

Freshen up your wardrobe by swapping out your solid coat for one with stripes!

Love this one here!!

THANK YOU FOR VISITING MY BLOG!  YOU CAN SHOP THE REST OF THIS LOOK BELOW.  XO

(for reference I’m wearing the XS petite)

These earrings are perfect for a dressy occasion.  But I personally love how they can dress up a plain tee and jeans.  It’s hard to tell in the picture but the main material the crystals are sitting on is a reflective mirror.  I’m currently wearing them as I type to you…and the weight is medium.  Not super light…and not too heavy.  You can pick up these unique beauties for under $40 right here.  Hope you love them as much as I do!!  xoxo

I always recommend investing in cozy basics.  Makes it so much easier to get dressed in the morning.  Add in some layers (i.e….this vest) and you can have a sophisticated look without compromising on comfort.

You can shop this top here:  Black & White ROMWE Top

And bonus…this top is currently on sale!  Under $20

I think the last backpack I owned was a Jansport.  This backpack is perfect for the busy mom or girl who’s always on the move.  Hands free is pretty amazing…I have not experienced that freedom in a long time.  Love all the compartments, the quality, the function and especially the style.  White-Fringe…I mean, come on now.   (details: here)

You can shop the top right here.
