Yay! We are already back to Friday thanks to the short work week 🙂
Today for my Friday Finds, I decided to post a bunch of summer wardrobe staples. I know a lot of us are all itching for the warm days that lay ahead, so I’ve taken the liberty of rounding up a few items that will spruce up any summertime wardrobe! And the best part is that each item is under $50!!
So just a quick story about the title of this post!
Yes, everyone knows that 80s movie, but also one time in college I was going to the movies with my roommate, Trem, who was wearing a pink puffy vest. We were at a movie theater in Boston, which was huge and we were going up the escalator. This random old guy was going down the other escalator and as we crossed paths with him, he starts serenading with “prettyyyyy, pretty in a piiiink veeeeesssst” to my roommate. OMG – I cracked up. I’m like “awww Trem, this old guy loves you!!” And from then on any time she ever wore anything pink, I would sing “pretty in a pink shirt” or tank top, shorts, whatever she was wearing that was pink, etc! And to this day I cannot look at a pink vest or watch the movie without thinking of this random time!
So with that little tidbit out, today I am posting a springtime look & sharing a few other springtime sandals that have caught my eye recently!
Today I wanted to talk about the most ubiquitous belt trend around and that is the Gucci G belt. I remember talking about this in the fall when there was an article that I posted on my blog about the number one item flying off the shelves. I had linked a few other belts that looked a little similar and were probably design inspired by the original Gucci belt. I own one them from Nordstrom here.
Today I am starting a new weekly posting segment that I am calling Friday Finds & Favorites! For this week’s Friday Finds I am featuring five items of varying price points. Some of them are on sale this week and a couple of them are just low-priced! Each week I might pick a theme or choose a specific category of products to feature, but for this week I picked a mix of clothes, shoes, accessories, & beauty products! I own a couple of these products and a few I would like to own! 🙂
I don’t usually post too much on the weekends, but this weekend is your final chance to redeem Old Navy Super Cash, so I wanted to do a little roundup of the best stuff from their website!
To be honest, I’m actually fairly disappointed in their springtime rollout thus far. It is really zzzzzzzzz. Yawn, so boring! There is probably still a couple of weeks before they release the rest of their spring line, so hopefully they get some cuter, more vibrant spring/summer looking items! It is, however, a good time to stock up on basics and there are a couple of new pieces that I will be using my super cash on! So let’s get into it! (Also, if you do not have any super cash to redeem they are offering 20% off with code SWEET and they have a bunch of items on sale!)
1 Tunic Sweatshirt – Items like this are what I’m referring to when I say boring, but it is a good basic to own! I think the olive green and oatmeal are the best colors.
2. Striped Swimsuit Top – I love the top of this bathing suit. I’m not super into the bottoms, but they also have them in a regular bikini bottom style here.
4. NBA Sweatshirt – Let’s go C’s! I love a good sportswear fleece lined sweatshirt.
5. Striped Sleeved Hoodie – The pop of colorful stripes on the sleeve gives this casual hoodie an updated, springtime feel!
6. Luxe Tee – I own several of these tees and they are super comfortable with a relaxed fit and the material is so soft!
7. Grey Joggers – This is my favorite style jogger that they currently have out. I’m hoping more sizes come back in stock.
8. Raw Edge Jeans – Lighter wash jeans are perfect for warmer weather and I really like this updated style with the raw edge.
9. Black Leggings – Old Navy has made it so easy to pick out leggings by breaking them down into different categories. These fall under “street leggings” which I take to mean everyday wear, not just for working out. The reviews are really good and I’m thinking of purchasing!
10. White Jeans – These are already in my cart! I feel like I need a new pair of white jeans every year because no matter how many times I bleach them, after a while they just start looking dingy and it’s time trash them. I love the button fly style too!
11. Black Joggers – I own these sweater joggers in 3 different colors and they are definitely a favorite of mine! Super comfortable.
12. Black Dress – This black, jersey dress is one of the best things ever to come out of ON. This dress is so great for so many reasons. 1. You can wear a regular bra with this dress. 2. It’s super lightweight since it’s jersey material, making it perfect for hot summer days when you HAVE to wear a dress for some occasion. 3. It’s a flowy, swing style which makes it quite forgiving in the waist, so that you are not concerned with overeating at dinner, a wedding, etc. No one will even notice your post dinner pot belly! 😉 4. They usually offer it in a few different colors, but I typically stick with basic black because it’s easy to dress up or down depending on what shoes and accessories you pair with it. If you get one thing from ON in the next few weeks or months, make it this dress. I don’t think you will regret it!
I also forgot to add to my collage, but they have restocked this camo tee!♥
