Sweetest Somethings

memorial day weekend

Usually the month of May crawls along at a snails pace and I am counting the seconds until Memorial Day weekend. These past few weeks have been so busy that the 3 day weekend snuck up on me! I was up late last night packing for our getaway (we’re heading down to Bethany Beach, DE). Keep your fingers crossed for nice weather. I hope this weekend you will be enjoying some time with friends, a nice BBQ, and most importantly a Monday off from work! Stay tuned next week when I’ll complete my 4 days, 4 ways series by styling my little white dress four different ways. Have fun!

4 days, 4 ways: coral maxi skirt

on top: Loft top | on bottom: Loft coral maxi skirt | in-between: Shoemint wedges, Tory Burch bag, Stella&Dot necklace, Aqua and Michael Kors bracelets

Ever since writing this post on unexpected color combinations, I’ve been waiting to pair coral and yellow. I love color-blocking especially with bright, springtime shades. Since both of these pieces are from the Loft, the styles really go together perfectly. Today is the last day of styling this coral skirt so I hope you enjoyed all the looks! Next up, my last week of the series styling my new (and favorite) little white dress.

PS- How cute is that heart & star bangle? I love it and there are other cute ones here!

4 days, 4 ways: coral maxi skirt

on top: Baily44 tee, Madewell sweater (similar) | on bottom: LOFT skirt | in-between: Sam Edelman flats (similar), Urban Outfitters bag, Kate Spade glasses

I’m pretty sure people think maxi skirts are dressy. I feel like the odd man out because I actually find most of them pretty casual. Kinda like a lightweight blanket you just wrap around your waist and call it an outfit. For those of you who find them dressy, this look is a way to make them more casual. Pair them with a basic tee, a lightweight pullover sweater, and flat shoes. For those of you like me who tend to feel like they’re a little more casual, consider this your super laid back look.
