TIERED TULLE DRESS: OBSESSED!









 
My niece Alyson in her gorgeous strapless tulle dress.  She looked like a princess.  Congrats, Aly! XO

 
 
 
Last weekend, we had the pleasure of attending my niece's Bat Mitzvah.  It was a "black and white" evening event, so I wanted a really unique dress.  Aly wore a beautiful pink strapless gown which really stood out and looked amazing.  I chose a bit of a modern take on black and white in this nude tulle gown and matching nude jeweled ankle-strap heels.  I added a black satin wrap.  It was so easy to wear and I was thrilled with the choice, it was just perfect.  I am in love with this dress; can't wait until I can wear it again. 


Dress: BCBG Max Azria (on SALE!) and here
Wrap: Adrianna Pappell at Nordstrom
Shoes: Franco Sarto, here and here
Alyson's Dress: Jiovani (similar)
 
Have a stylish day!
 
XO, Jill

BACKYARD BBQ LOOK - THE ROMPER





 

 






I put together this casual look for a backyard barbecue we were invited to over the hot, sunny weekend.  Eileen and I were instant messaging a week or so ago about some summer looks, and I wrote "I picked up two rompers at Nordstrom Rack last week.  They are everywhere!"  She replied, "You're right, rompers ARE everywhere!" 

Well, I can't believe this style is back, to be honest.  And I can't believe they are still called rompers.  I wore this style when I was eight!  I'll admit, I loved the colors and casual ease of this one from Collective Concepts.  I paired it with my fave belt from Anthropologie and new Sam Edelman gladiators.  Here's to long, lazy days and many more delicious barbecues with friends.  Welcome, summer!

Sunglasses: Ray Ban
