Sunday Style: Talbots and Dress For Success

This post is sponsored by Talbots and Stylinity. 

I am so excited to partner with Talbots on a new project! I have loved Talbots for years for their classic pieces but I also love that they have a special relationship with none other than (drumroll please) Oprah herself! 

Let me explain...For the fourth year, the O Magazine has partnered with Talbots on a special collection benefiting one of my favorite charities, Dress For Success, of which 30% of the net proceeds goes to them! You can help support the cause by buying one of the special pieces from this collection or you can donate money in a store or online at Talbots.com. 

Many of you know that I used to volunteer in Michigan at the Dress For Success in Ann Arbor for a couple of years. Nothing is better than helping women pick out outfits that can change their lives. A simple job interview outfit that we take for granted can be found at Dress For Success. Many of these women are coming from shelters or broken homes and are in need of the basics. They are so grateful for any and all clothing, shoes and accessories that they are given to help them get that job or have clothes to wear to work! 

I chose a piece from this collection and wanted to show you all how versatile and comfortable this dress is! I wore it out for a fun afternoon in the botanical garden with my friend and her son. We had some fun in the children’s garden and I found this dress to be so easy to get around in and easy breezy paired with a pair of tennis shoes!

I have an abundance of clothing so decided to go to the mall with my donation to my local Talbots store! Here’s a picture of me and the beautiful associate accepting my donation! 



This dress that I’m wearing is also from Talbots! I love that it can be dressed up or down. The fabric is so stretchy and comfy! I dressed it up with these red strappy shoes also from Talbots but it would also be fab with a pair of tennis shoes for running around! Enjoy these pics of this look as well!

I’ve always believed that clothing can make or break your attitude and your spirit!  Confidence is key! I’m so glad that Talbots partners with Dress For Success and these women can feel the same way that I do! Over 100,000 women have been helped by this initiative! 

I hope you’ve enjoyed learning more about this initiative and that you take action yourself! 

Thanks for reading and following along with me!

Sunday Style: Green

Image
Green is my favorite color. I think it brings out the color in my eyes and it looks great with my skin tone.There's lots of sayings with green in them too. Give the green light. Green thumb. Going green. (Make no mistake- I didn't say Go Green- that's for all you Spartan fans out there). Green around the gills. Green with envy- well, don't be green with envy but I am sitting here in sunny Florida enjoying the warm weather and time with family and friends... This green dress has been hanging in my closet for a while but this was the first time that I got it out. I scored it on a major sale but just haven't had a chance to wear it. I always say why wait for a special occasion?  What I love most about this dress is the neckline. I tell you all the time that it's hard for me to wear a straight skirt or dress and this is no exception. I like the look of it but I do think I'll spend a few more dollars and have it tailored a little more. I paired nude pumps...

It’s a special edition of Travel Tuesday on a Thursday!   Ya’ll  need to get on board with going to Galveston! If you’re in the DFW area and you want to get to the beach, you can head south a few hours and get to Galveston easily! This was my second time visiting but I have a feeling I’ll be going back a little more often! I don’t have a ton of recommendations for you yet based on one weekend but the more I go, the more I’ll have!  First things first, where to stay?! There’s a new cute little boutique hotel in town named  Sugar‘s Inn  and I’m obsessed with the cuteness! It’s upstairs of one of Galveston’s finest restaurants  Sugar and Rye . Spoiler alert: I’ll be doing a giveaway with them over on Instagram too! Nothing better than a couple of nights away! My son and I went and we had separate rooms and each one was beautifully furnished from ceiling to floor! I took a bunch of pictures for you guys so you can check out how cute it is!  These...

Sunday Style: JJ’s House

Image
It’s been said in various ways that clothes don’t make the person, the person makes the clothes. I believe this to be exceptionally true in this beautiful dress that I am wearing in today’s post! This dress literally made me wish that I was heading out to the opera or a benefit dinner. I love that I get to wear and model a lot of clothes and some just feel more special than others. This dress was custom made for me so I got all the feels while I was zipping it up and looking in the mirror. It fits like a glove and I could not be more in love with it!  Let’s talk about  JJ’s House  for a minute. They have all sorts of dresses for special occasions, including bridal wear! I picked out a dress and did my measurements and sent them in with my order. They even called me once to make sure that my measurements were correct so they made sure to make the dress correctly!  This  dress  has gorgeous nude tulle with a black lace overlay. I literally felt like a princes...
