Outfit idea with white dress and blush bomber


College Fashion takes a knot-front top from day to night.

Sydne Style rounds up stylish Mother's Day gift ideas (I'll take one of each, please).

I'm loving every single one of these Clay Art mugs for Target. This one would be perfect for Mother's Day gifting!

I just bought these Westley sandals and if they're comfy I might just get another color. Perfect for everyday.

How amazing is this tote bag? I'm obsessed with anything with tropical leave prints for summer.

On Pinterest I'm loving this white dress, bomber jacket and mules look.

I'm not sure how I feel about the Fenty Puma by Rihanna collection...like this $1,200 reversible bomber jacket.

I just ordered these $10 linen blend pants, figured for that price I can't go wrong! Tip: Search for keywords like "linen" or "cotton" when shopping fast-fashion sites to find some really good stuff.

Would you try...the metallic freckles trend?

Thimblepress launched a new collection at Target, just in time for Mother's Day. I bought the umbrella for a friend, I think their stuff is so cute!

Chrissy Teigen Shines in a Satin Duster for Date Night

Chrissy Teigen steps out in a burgundy satin duster, ripped jeans and clear strap heels.
Chrissy Teigen is giving us major outfit envy in her burgundy satin duster, distressed jeans and clear-strap heels.

And let's not forget her gorgeous Celine bag in a matching deep red hue, must-have Gucci belt and oversized aviator sunglasses.

She's hitting all the right fashion notes, and we're pretending we're an ounce as cool as the supermodel with these look for less finds, all under $50 - except for the translucent heels by Steve Madden, which cost a bit more but are worth it. You don't want to skimp on a clear plastic shoe since this trend can easily go horribly wrong if you're not careful with your edit.

Summer Date Night Outfit Idea

Eva Longoria wore a coral blouse with white pants for a dinner date with husband Jose Baston in Madrid.

She accessorized with the cutest strappy black heels and a black clutch (not visible from this angle).

I added some on-trend tassel drop earrings to give this look a little something extra and make it more fashion-blogger-esque.
