Dress: Nordstrom // Shoes: Dolce Vita // Necklace: BaubleBar // Bracelets: Kendra Scott

I am a total sucker for a black dress (my closet is full of them) but I especially love a casual black dress. I found this casual black dress at Nordstrom for less than $50 and it is absolutely perfect for everyday wear. It fits true to size (wearing a small) and is cut to hang loose. This dress also comes in blue, peach, lavender and maroon. I also found these Dolce Vita mules at Nordstrom as well (they fit true to size, I am wearing a size 8) and love the laser cut detail. These mules are also so comfortable for everyday wear because of the thicker heel, soft leather and extra cushion under the ball of the foot. This casual black dress is currently in stock, but has been selling out quickly! Also, if you are ever in the Highland Park area be sure to stop by Royal Blue Grocery. It is one of my favorite spots to stop for coffee and a sweet treat. They also have a large selection of unique wine, food and flowers that make great gifts! xoxo

This weekend it was a balmy 80 degrees in Dallas, so naturally I pulled this floral wrap dress out from my spring stash for a patio brunch. I was more than ready to give my sweaters a break and feel the sunshine on my skin. Nordstrom has a ton of gorgeous floral dresses in stock, but of course I went for the black option. This dress fits true to size (wearing a small) fitting tighter through the chest and ribs, and lose through the waist, hips, and sleeves. I would caution against wearing this dress on a windy day as it blows up very easily and no one wants that! I paired the floral wrap dress with these adorable Dolce Vita laser cut mules, and black BaubleBar tassel earrings. I was nervous that these mules would give me blisters, but they are way more comfortable than I expected. The leather is soft, so it does not rub against my toes when I walk. They also have extra padding on the heel and ball of the foot. These BaubleBar tassel earrings come in 13 different colors and are only $36. They do pull on my ears a little, but I am still able to wear them all day without noticing the weight too much. If your ears are more sensitive to weight, there is a smaller version of these tassel earrings that is much lighter but still just as fun. To match the pink floral pattern in the dress, I am wearing my favorite Anastasia Beverly Hills Liquid Lipstick in Dolce, and Chanel nail polish in Ballerina. I have linked everything you need to get this spring look below, and hopefully we continue having more 80 degree weekends! xoxo
