I’m loving this Kate Spade satchel (buy here). The color says cream online but it’s white in person. It’s the perfect size and has an adjustable cross body strap. I like that the Kate Spade logo is very small and discreet. It’s similar in shape to my Kate Spade Grove Court Satchel. I would definitely recommend it if you are looking for a white purse for Spring/Summer. It also comes in a beautiful ballet slipper pink (buy here).

These J.Crew sloan metallic pumps (buy here) are so comfortable! The shape reminds me of Ann Taylor’s perfect pump. The almond toe and 3.5″ heel height make it a perfect shoe for work.

I added my trusty H&M white blazer (sleeves hemmed and added buttons) as a cover up for work.

Thanks to What Jess Wore for letting me know about this dress. This is from Loft’s upcoming Spring collection. It’s reminiscent of J.Crew’s scallop dress from a year ago (buy factory version here) but there are no scallops at the bottom. The material is much softer and the cut is more flattering than J.Crew. J.Crew’s scallop dress did nothing for me which is why I never reviewed it.  It had so much potential and I was so excited about it but the cut was very boxy. You can imagine how happy I was when I saw this Loft dress in store! The scallops are a perfect size and cut beautifully. I love the neckline and it’s cut so that your bra straps don’t show on the sides. The back is v-shaped with scallop trim and a concealed zipper (woo hoo!). The dress is unlined but the material is thick enough so I can look past it. I wish it was a little bit longer in length and the hips are slightly wide but I guess they were going for an a-line silhouette. I have a feeling this dress will be sold out quickly when it hits online. It’s a great dress for Valentines day and Spring. Thanks for reading!

  1. You look absolutely stunning in the J.Crew dress Annie! I love the bold blue color on you a lot and your simple choice of accessories. Very classic. I’m so glad you were able to find the LOFT dress in your size too! It’s so cute with the scallop details and I’m really glad it worked out for you too. I didn’t know J.Crew Factory came out with a version too and now I’m kind of curious how that fits but it’s probably better to stay away. πŸ™‚

  2. You loook beautiful in both dresses. I love the Sloane pumps. How did you find sizing on them? I am 7.5, but wear 8 in J. Crew pumps & wedges. Love your KS bag, too. That color!

  3. Annie, you are wearing a beautiful blue dress here. Though the pumps are silvery, your beauty is golden overall with this outfit. The necklace is as charming as your smile. The blazer is also very nice. Beautiful hairstyle. The handbag is cute. Lovely style by you!
