Spring To Summer Transitional Fashion Ideas

Every year once the weather starts to warm up I begin to look for new pieces to update my wardrobe. Spring to summer is a great time to add a few affordable pieces and utilize a few transitional fashion ideas. Some of my favorite patterns and textures include floral designs, tie dye, woven accessories/shoes and gold jewelry. I also love to add a layer or two so that I can carry my looks from day to night. California is known for having some of the hottest days and the coolest nights.

One of my favorite places to look for affordable and stylish pieces is Walmart. Walmart Fashion offers a wide variety of brands and price points plus so many of the trends that I love. Plus, many of their items are available with 2-day shipping!

Scoop is one of my favorite Walmart house brands, and this dress is an amazing find from them. Runs TTS, I’m wearing a size small. Only $29, comes in 3 adorable colors.

Having the best time in DC and the cherry on top was getting a free upgrade to the John F Kennedy suite at the Willard Hotel❤️ 🙌🏼 The suite is a huge 1800 sq feet with a large oval sitting room, 2 bathrooms, a coffee room and views of the Washington monument. We were so excited and surprised that they gave it to us.. I guess it doesn’t hurt to ask for a room change. We had double beds and asked if we could switch to a king bed and this is what they gave us. 😍 Lesson of the day.. it never hurts to ask.
A few fun facts about the Willard Hotel - Abraham Lincoln stayed here for 10 days prior to his inauguration, in 1869 it was in the Willard lobby that Ulysses S Grant popularized the term lobbyist because he detested the people who hung out in the lobby of the hotel doing self promotion, VP Calvin Coolidge lived at the Willard Hotel for a few months after President Harding died so Harding’s wife would have time to make arrangements for herself.. As a result the flag was raised outside the hotel to signify he (as President) lived here. 💫

Sharing 2 looks for Valentine’s Day! ❤️ The 1st dress is more of a salmon red (I’m wearing an XS) and the 2nd is more of a rust red (I’m wearing a S) The colors allow you to wear these dresses year around. Love that! 😍
