Good morning and happy Monday loves! I've been obsessed with fruit prints lately and this darling lemon cami is no exception. You guys loved it over on Instagram! I just checked the website and all sizes are in stock so go and get it if you love it (only $13!!). There's also this floral cami that looks very similar if you're not into the fruit print.
A little tip I swear by for off the shoulder tops/camis/backless dresses is to wear a sticky bra! I highly recommend this one, I've bought it twice already (literally stays on alllll day without falling off)! Most recently I've also purchased this one, it's more seamless which makes it perfect for thinner materials or tops with less coverage. Both of these options are re-usable so you'll definitely be able to get your money's worth.
Yum yum! Pizza dates at Alinos. If you're ever in Mooresville I recommend stopping by for some pizza and gelato. They have tons of seating and cute little bikes outside.

Happy Monday loves! I'm SO ready for the warm weather to be in full swing! Last week we had some sunny days and I decided to shoot some spring looks for you all. I'm wearing this adorable off the shoulder eyelet top that I got for under $20!! Also, I get tons of questions about the Levi's I wear. My favorite style is the 501 skinny fit!! They seriously fit and look so good. THIS is the wash I'm wearing and they're kinda hard to find now so you should snag them while you can & they're on sale ( use code EXTRA20 for 20% off)!
The Chloe Faye has been seen on stylish ladies everywhere for a few years now. I think it came out around 2015? Not sure but it's been hot for a while. I only recently started reallly loving it and contemplating buying the mini backpack version. The motty grey color is absolutely beautiful and I have a thing for mini designer bags - they are just too adorable! I quickly snapped out of it though and came to the realization that while I think it's totally worth the money, I could do a lot better things with almost 2 grand.
I totally forgot about the Chloe Faye that was until I was browsing the H&M website and saw this beauty. I think it has just enough similarities but doesn't look like an exact copy which I love. If I get it (and I think I will) I'm buying it in light brown but they also love it in black, in case you're a black handbag only kinda girl. They also have this bag and this one that looks inspired by Chloe too. I haven't been shopping at H&M lately but they have so many good things in right now. RIP to my bank account haha!
Okay, guys, I wanna hear your thoughts! Are you over the Chloe Faye or still loving it?
Silk camis are a year-round staple in my wardrobe so I need some that will last. I've found some of the best for the price from Grana. That's why I've decided to come back with review #2 on their silk camis. Back in July, I wrote a review to help out anyone looking to buy from them. It's been one of my most popular posts so I know you guys are curious about their stuff.
I placed an order for two more camis back in November. I got another one of their v-neck camis because I love the way they fit. The only difference is that I sized down from an XS to XXS and the fit is so much better! I also bought their round neck cami - I got XS in that one and it fits perfectly.
V-Neck Cami ($49)
- fully lined
-silk is smooth and very 'silky'
- runs slightly large - I recommend sizing down
Round Neck Cami ($45)
- fits true to size
- only top half of the shirt is lined (on their website it says light colors are fully lined and dark colors are lined to the bust)
- very soft 'crepe de chine' silk
Care Tips
I wash all my silk camis by hand in the sink. I use cool water and a mild detergent (this is the one I use). I also like to use a tiny bit of white vinegar when I rinse them. I try to press all the water out then I lay them flat on a towel to dry. In between wears, I like using my steamer to freshen them up and get any wrinkles out.
Also, a little tip that has been super helpful when I get oil stains in my camis is to use corn starch on the oil spot! My powder dry shampoo also works wonderfully for this.... sometimes you just gotta get resourceful haha! What I'll do is cover the spot in the powder, rub it in, and let it sit for a few minutes/hours. Then just dust it off/rub it off and it usually does the trick. This works wonderfully on light colored silks but may not be that great on dark colors.
Shipping
It's pretty quick considering it comes all the way from Hong Kong.
All in all, I love Grana's silk camis and I'm definitely going to try more from them. I noticed they carry black skinny jeans now and they're only $59! I might have to try them. Let me know if you enjoy these Grana reviews and I'll keep doing them for you all. Just leave a comment letting me know what you'd want me to review from them next!

Everyone should own a beige trenchcoat style jacket! The light color will complement your spring wardrobe so well and the style will make your outfit look put together and stylish. Trust me. I get asked where mine is from all the time. Why? Because the style is timeless and makes you look so stylish without even trying. If you want to look effortlessly sophisticated then get your hands on one this spring! I think H&M makes some of the best affordable options, that's where mine is from. I love this one and this one. If you have an H&M near you I would suggest shopping there instead because they sell out of their good stuff online pretty quickly.

Hey babes! Last summer I saw the Hermes 'Oran' sandals all over Pinterest and I really wanted them. The only thing stopping me was the $680 price tag! Yikes! That's a whole lot of cash to drop on a pair of sandals. While I'm sure the quality is amazing and is totally worth it, I was on a mission to find the look for less.
Well, one day while I was looking through my emails I came across this beautiful leather sandal that Sam Edelman had just released. They instantly reminded me of the Hermes sandal but for a fraction of the cost. Although they don't look exactly like the designer version I think they're a pretty good dupe. They're made of leather, super comfortable, and fit true to size. I've been wearing them almost every day since I got them in the mail and I've received tons of compliments on them! Now I'm contemplating on getting the white version too! This pair is also a pretty good dupe and I've seen tons of bloggers wearing.
Now, for a little inspiration that I found on Pinterest. Sunkissed skin, frayed denim, floppy beach hats, floral dresses, straw bags... Looking at these pictures gets me so excited for warmer weather!! Let me know if you guys would like to see more 'look for less' type of posts.
Just wanted to update this post to let you guys know that I found another dupe for under $20!! These are seriously SO cute! Check them out HERE.
MARCH 2019 update
Zara just released this pair of sandals that has the same kinda look. They look a little more like the Saint Laurent tribute sandal but still a good dupe! I also just bought this simlar pair for under $10! Will update with photos soon!
