Crochet Details

Crochet Details

I've always appreciated a Summery top, especially when it involves crochet detailing. There's just something about lacy tunic that makes me think of Summer. I wore this this little crochet top last week to dinner and it was the perfect solution to these hot temperatures we've been having in Dallas. I am all about light and airy fabrics when its 100 outside! I kept the jewelry pretty minimal and just layered a few Gorjana necklaces and added a pop with this painted bangle by Stacy Brown Designs. Wearing: White Crochet Top (similar styles here and here) | Stacy Brown Designs Hand painted Bangle c/o (this option was completely custom, but if you tell her you want this style, she can easily re-create!) | Hudson Super Skinny Jeans in Light Wash (TTS) | Gorjana Griffin Fancy Horn Necklace and Tanner Bar Necklace c/o (both free shipping today!) | Brown Leather Satchel | Thick Gold Ring (Gorjana Griffin Camila ...

Travel Diaries | Gulf Shores, AL

Travel Diaries | Gulf Shores, AL

There's nothing quite like a week with your toes in the sand and sea salt in your hair. I wanted to share a few pictures from our family vacation last week. We stayed in a sweet little beach house right along the water.  We usually travel to the Sea Side area in Florida, so this was our first time to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach. The weather was great and the water was even better. (to see more of our pictures check out my instagram under #robertsonbeachbums) Until next time!

Boho Tunic

Boho Tunic

One of my favorite weekend traditions is brunch. It's something my husband and I started doing when we got married, and it has now become a weekend ritual. This past weekend we went to one of our favorite spots in Dallas, The Bishop Arts District and had an amazing brunch at Oddfellows (huge wait so go early). The weather was surprisingly cool so I threw on this boho tunic (or dress if you size up), skinny jeans, and my trustworthy nude pumps. The perfect combo in my opinion! Wearing: Chic Wish Boho Love Ethereal Dress c/o (FIT: This is actually intended to be a dress, but the small was a little short on me (5 '6) I loved how it looked as a tunic though! If you want it as a dress I suggest size up for length) | Rag and Bone Zip Detail Skinny Jeans  (FIT: R&B jeans run small, so I would go one size up from your normal size) | Charles David Pact Pump in Nude | Leather Crossbody (on sale!) | Wanderlust Double XL Spike Cuff in

Mixing Prints

Mixing Prints

Mixing prints is nothing new, but when it comes to leopard + stripes, I can't help but get excited. The ease of throwing on stripes and mixing it with a bright or bold print always sounds appealing. The best thing about stripes is that pretty much any pattern looks good with it. Whether you go camo, floral, leopard or polka dot, it's all good with stripes. This striped maxi (another version) is a favorite summer staple of mine. I have literally worn it all summer long since it's perfect for travel, super soft and easy to throw on and go. To mix it up, pair the dress with this bright scarf and these sandals for a casual yet sophisticated look. You really can't go wrong with a classic piece like this!    Wearing: Striped Maxi Dress (similar version in navy) FIT: Wearing a small, TTS | Oia Jules Jaws Remix Necklace c/o | Gorjana Griffin Fancy Horn Necklace c/o | Bauble Bar Crystal Christine Ring | Gorjana Griffin G Ring Set (the best ...
