Boho Gypsy Vibes

I may have found the perfect twirly summer dress...for $7 in H&M's clearance section!  It's times like this where I know it's just meant to be when a dress you've had your eye on for months suddenly appears when you're just just sifting through the clearance racks.

I cannot stress enough: the clearance section is your friend-- your BFF even.  If you can manage the patience to go through the clearance racks, you're pretty much guaranteed an amazing find for practically nothing.  Plus, it's always such a better story when you can surprise people with how much you managed to save on such a great outfit!

Dress: H&M (similar) || Sandals: MIA, via Marshalls || 

Belt: Forever 21 || Necklace: Forever 21 || Sunnies: aerie (similar)

Watch: c/o Fossil || Bag: Marshalls (similar + this round one is also great!) 

Not gonna lie, I feel like a boho Disney princess in this dress-- like Belle meets Coachella-- and I love it!  The bright red-orange color, tassels, and the off the shoulder; it's perfect!  And the added silver western-inspired belt and necklace adds to the festival vibes without getting too crazy, or having to overload on accessories!

I've rounded up some of my favorite off the shoulder dresses for this summer here for y'all (all $100 and under!!!):

Have you jumped on the OTS dress bandwagon yet?  :)

Fresh & Festive

Lately the weather's been pretty great; pretty much all of last week was warm and filled with lots of sun.

And then today, the weather took a turn...again.  All this back and forth with the weather makes it such a pain in the butt to get dressed in the morning; even though it's May, it's still pretty chilly most days, but then later in the day it starts to warm up for a little, before cooling down again.  I've learned that the best way to combat this crazy weather is to just layer.

Overalls: GAP || Sweater: GAP, old (similar) || 

Jacket: H&M, no longer online (H&M has the best bold jackets, like this one & this one!)|| 

Headband: aerie || Sunnies: Wish app (similar) || Earrings: H&M || 

Sneakers: Puma ||  Crossbody: Banana Republic

I stood in front of my closet for a good five minutes before I came up with this outfit idea, and I was so happy it worked out once I put it on.  I've only really worn this H&M jacket (it's no longer available online, but I have seen a few in stores, on sale!) a few times (seen here!), but since it was pretty chilly, I was excited to get to wear it again before it gets warmer!

The combo of the festival-inspired jacket and these GAP overalls was a really fun and funky outfit!  I love the idea of white overalls because they're great for warmer weather; the white gives your outfit a fresh look and the overalls are great for cooler days.

This outfit was an unexpected surprise, because I put it together in a rush and I absolutely LOVED how different it was!; and I got a ton of compliments from people saying that they loved how fun and unique this look was!

How do you layer up on cold, spring days?  :)
