Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend! This was an especially fun one for us. I have a monthly girls dinner with some of my dearest friends with the intent to be real and open with each other. It often ends in tears or prayer and has been so special for me. We usually gather at someone’s house and have a potluck of sorts. This month we decided to have Mexican food, margaritas, and a dance party at our friends’ apartment. It was so fun! Saturday we had an early birthday party for my sweet niece before they closed their pool. It was mermaid themed and everything was adorable.
Now let’s talk fashion. Shirt dresses seem to be a big trend for this season and so does olive. This olive shirt dress from Wayf is the perfect combination. It can be worn to the office, a date night, or casually. I’m obsessed! It also comes in navy, black, and a salmon color. You’ve got to check out how some of the Blogger Nation babes are styling theirs. I love seeing one piece so many ways. I paired it with my Chloe dupe bag (are you tired of it yet??), my favorite mules, and my new longline blazer which I know will be getting a lot of wear this fall. How great is it?! Wayf is sold at Nordstrom and was a new brand to me. I’m already eyeing this keyhole midi dress…

Beautiful, Amy Ann! I absolutely love this look. I’m loving your shirt-dress and it looks amazing with your cream coat and sandals/boots! I love those shoes. It reminds me of a purse I have. I love the touch of snakeskin on the heel! So unique and chic!

Sounds like a nice weekend! I love that you get together with your girl friends on a regular basis and enjoy open and honest company… it’s so wonderful to have meaningful friendships. And Mexican food with margs? Yum! I missed the invite!! Lol…
You look fab in the dress shirt… it is becoming a popular trend, and so is the olive color. Both look beautiful on you!

WOW, you all look gorgeous in your neutral utility shirtdresses. I love yours. I just mentioned on an earlier blog how much I need and want olive this upcoming season. Plus it is one of my most favorite colors. Thanks for linking up with me today also and you were chosen as a favorite look, from last Monday. =)
This outfit could not be more perfect! I love shirt dresses and am super excited they’re big for fall. XX
