You guys have heard me talk about my weight loss enough. Shedding those glorious forty pounds was rewarding but my closet is dull and still full of old clothes that remind me of my heavier days. Over the past month I have tried to find affordable Summer outfits that can be worn throughout my busy days. Whether I am running errands or meeting girlfriends for happy hour I want pieces that can transition no matter what I am doing. So, when I was selected to shop at Sears for Summer wardrobe essentials I was excited at the thought of finally purging my closet and replacing with affordable on-trend pieces. I have to admit that I haven’t personally shopped at Sears in years! If you’re like me and haven’t shopped at Sears in awhile you should really check out their Sears Style feature. It’s a fun way to find out what’s on-trend, what essentials your closet needs and much, much more! They also have their shop your way rewards program – the more you shop, the more you save.
I found an adorable black and white stripe Kardashian Kollection dress that is versatile for day or night. Since Sears was having a great holiday sale I scored 40-50% off the dress and accessories plus an additional $4 off for my rewards. The entire outfit cost less than $50! I couldn’t limit myself to just one dress so I also purchased an adorable black lace blouse that can also transition throughout the day. To see my entire shopping trip you can check out my Google+ album.
I didn’t try the dress on in the store, I just went with my intuition. The dress felt amazing on! The fabric was soft, the curves and pleating were feminine on this adorable A-line dress. When we went for our Saturday morning errands I paired the dress with simple black sandals. The symmetry of the dress was fun and flirty which was perfect for the hot Summer day. On our coffee run the barista complimented the dress so I knew it was a keeper!
After a morning of errands we relaxed a bit and then the hubby and I had tickets to see a play at the performing arts center. I was able to add a leather jacket, pointed toe heels and my Kardashian Kollection necklace to transition into the crisp Summer night air.
The dress could have been paired with a belt, however, I chose to only accessorize with a necklace which was also from the Kardashian Kollection. Because my outfit was black and white with the hint of gold I chose a bright pink nail polish for a splash of color.
I loved this ensemble. I was comfortable all day long and the best part was that it didn’t break my pocketbook. You know the hubby was super happy about that! If you haven’t shopped at Sears in awhile I urge you check them out online or at your nearest department store. You’re bound to find the perfect Summer outfit that can transition with you throughout the day!
