Today I’m rounding up 10 closet additions I know were worth it. From items I’ve been wearing on repeat to pieces that fit a look-for-less find, below you can find details on sizing, fit, and more.
Pearl Sandals
It may be a little difficult to see, but in the closet photo above, do you see the black sandals with the pearls on them? I found those last year during our trip to Seaside and have been obsessed with them ever since! They were a bit more expensive, so I was on the hunt for a look-for-less pair in tan! I found these and they have been absolutely perfect! I went up half a size to a 7.5. Shop them here.
Bag Strap
Last summer I became minorly obsessed with bag straps! You can see in the image below, but I added one to a pink tote and carried it all summer. Then, I found a few more options and would throw them on my clear stadium bags for football games and tailgating. I keep a little drawer in my armoire with my purses all for bag accessories and as I was sorting through my bags for summer, I knew I wanted to whip a few more out this season. I ordered a few on Amazon and have been so pleased with the quality and price. The green one I have is sold out, but I linked more above so you can find one that fits your handbag or style best. You can add them to any tote or crossbody that has a hook and it’s a fun way to make a piece your own, while also giving your arm some support while you lug around your goods. 😉 Click the images above to shop.
Shirt Dress
This pink shirt dress works well for a bump or without! A few of my girlfriends have this and we all love it. It comes in a few different shades and the fabric is really cooling with the summer heat. This does run pretty generous in size, so I would size down! I’m wearing an xs. Shop it here.
Linen Dress
Shop Maxi’s outfit here.
You may have seen this linen Sleeper dress all over Instagram lately. Sleeper is a gorgeous dress brand and they make really comfortable linen dresses that feel as perfect for lounging at home as they do for a date night. When I don’t want to just be in sweats, I’ve been living in this at home and feel so comfortable. I’m wearing a Small with my bump. If you wanted to try this style for less, I’ve found a similar item on Amazon below.
Juicy Set
For play clothes, Maxi lives in little Juicy sets! I originally purchased one of the velour sets above when she was about 18 months because I couldn’t believe I could find them on Amazon and they looked so cozy! Now at age 3, these are some of her favorite outfits because they are so comfortable. You have to dig around for size, but you can’t beat the price.
Maternity Dress
I’ve preached it before and will again, Walmart is where I have lucked out the most with my maternity dresses this pregnancy. This $14 one is no exception. Grab your normal pre-pregnancy size and mine has worked for me until the very end! Shop it here.
Tile Bracelets
Enamel tile bracelets are a designer trend for spring and summer. You’ll see lots of style bloggers with an array of them on their wrist. I grab mine off Amazon and they also make great additions to your gift closet.
Kira Statement Necklace
I’ve worn this statement necklace all month long with everything from my Sleeper linen dress to more casual tees. It’s currently on sale today and you can shop it here!
White Blouse
After seeing this top on a friend, I knew it would be the perfect blouse for summer. You can use it as a coverup, or wear a tank under and tuck it in your shorts. It gives off a Free People-esque feel and I was so impressed with the quality after mine came in the mail, I ordered a second for my sister! Shop it here.
Band
I get a little bit nervous about cleaning, gardening, or working out in my wedding band set. I also wasn’t sure if I would swell in my hands the last few weeks of pregnancy. In the back of my mind, I wanted to order a band in half a size up {just in case!} that I could always keep on no matter what I was doing. I have been hunting one of these down online for the past few months, and finally found the one I’m obsessed with. It doesn’t tarnish or turn on my finger, and I love that I can wear it outside with Maxi and not worry. I got one for my mom, as well, and she loves it! It’s just a nice option to have whether you want a right-hand ring or you feel naked without your wedding set as I do! Shop it here.
Your shoe collection! Dream closet omg! ❤️✨
