Maren Dress- Blue curated on LTK

How fun is this flirty little dress for a summer date night? I had pretty much sworn off shorter dresses but when I saw this dress, combined with the boost of self-confidence from self-tanner, I decided to go for it! Bonus-it has pockets! Wearing a size small.

My first Express haul (probably since middle school) and I’m so impressed! Here are the sizing details:

Outfit 1:
Blouse: XS
Jeans: 2 Short. They are TTS, and they do stretch but they are just right. Not loose at all in the waist.
Sweater: XS (it’s very oversized)

Outfit 2:
Waffle Knit Top: sized up to small for more length since it’s a cropped style
Pants: size XS Short (they have pockets!)

Recently went to our local outdoor mall and the holiday decorations are so pretty! It also helped that it as 75° out and sunny-it was a great spot to get my steps in!! I wore this banded collar button front blouse with the prettiest silver running through it, especially when it catches the light. Paired it with one of my favorite pairs of jeans and the ankle boots I’ve been wearing on repeat!

Sharing a few behind the scenes pictures of getting the outfit shot. It was a grey, chilly day and I wanted to be cozy for our brunch date, then a run to some local stores to find gifts for our Angel Tree recipient. Her wish list, in this order, was a winter coat (that broke my heart), art supplies and a Barbie. We got everything checked off her list and then went home to film an Amazon haul-and this outfit just happens to be Amazon from head to toe!

I layered one of my favorite waffle knit sets over a basic tee, then layered that under a khaki coatigan to break up all the black. Added my faux suede loafers and Riley handbag and it was a look I really liked! I think this would make a great travel outfit too! Use code MARNIE20 to get 20% off my bag before prices go up in January!

Don’t save your sequins and shimmers for holiday parties-they’re also great for cheering on your hometown team! Last night we went to see the Spurs play the Chicago Bulls, and while the Spurs didn’t win, we still had a great time! My husband and I are originally from Chicago so it was a little hard not to cheer for the Bulls too!

My sweater is 40% off this weekend-I’m wearing it in an XS.

This sweater is just too cute (and too soft) for it not to have it's own moment! It also comes in black and plus sizes. Wearing it in a size XS. Pairs nicely with my gripper sock slippers!

When you’re going somewhere casual but you’re not sure if the occasion calls for something a little “more”, a great tip is to throw a blazer over a basic tee and jeans. Voila! Instantly it’s a little more “smart casual”. This scuba double breasted blazer can be worn on its own or you can add a few different zip in dickie options, just like the Veronica Beard blazer except mine is under $90! I added a cashmere hoodie insert (comes in two colors) that’s under $50!

Sizing on the outfit: blazer and tee in size XS, I like to size up one with Frame jeans so wearing a 27. Boots are TTS. Discount code on my handbag (and the whole Gigi site) is MARNIE20 and on my tee is MARNIE15

It took me all year to find a favorite SPF-this is the one to give all the glow (so it might be better for non-sweaty seasons). I’ve also linked the regular tinted version that doesn’t have glow if you’re looking for more coverage

Sharing my Thanksgiving Day outfit with you because it works for lots of winter events you may have coming up. The dress is a short sleeve velvet that comes in so many beautiful colors and has a very forgiving elastic waist (note no pockets & size S). I added a merino wool collarless jacket for warmth (size XS) and similar tone suede boots (size down ½ size) to finish off the look. I would wear this again to a holiday luncheon, a religious service, dinner out or any semi- casual gathering in the cooler months. I’ve also linked my holiday decor in case you’re interested

Beige and cream basics for a family outing to one of my favorite spots in San Antonio-The Historic Pearl. The outfit shots were taken in a newer section near the new Pullman Market and it’s beautiful in a very different way from the last slide, which is the river walk behind Hotel Emma. The whole property is magical and a must see-all year round!

My sweater is a new find from Aritzia. It’s an oversized cable knit and it’s SO soft! Wearing a size XS. Jeans and coat are old favorites-I’ve linked the most current versions. I didn’t think I’d love the new platform style of Uggs but they grew on me-and they kept my toes toasty!
