Weekend Wear :: Striped Tee & Velvet Sneakers

Hey guys! Blush and velvet pretty much equals perfection so I had no shame in wearing these velvet sneakers again a couple of weekends ago. It was super windy so excuse my flyaways, but I had to share this very casual look with you. I loved how these sneaks paired with my lavender top the first time I wore them that I had to style them again, but with an even more casual look.

I feel like they go with a lot of things in my closet for the spring season so I’m pretty sure they’ll be worn to death.

These denim shorts have been in my weekend rotation for the last two years. I think it’s high time to add another pair to my closet for the warmer months ahead. And these dark wash distressed shorts are totally calling my name.

Anyway, did anyone shop the Victoria Beckham x Target launch this past weekend?

Over the last few years, I’ve gotten pretty good at shopping Target’s designer collaborations. If you didn’t get what you wanted, here are some tips for future collabs: the key is logging into your Target account prior to the launch and “favorite” what you want. At the time of the launch, refresh until you see “Add to bag” on an item and if the internet gods love you, you should have a painless shopping experience.

It literally took me 30 seconds to order what I wanted, but then again, I ordered one thing I had my eye on, lol!

In the past, I wasn’t mindful and ordered pieces I liked instead of loved from their collabs. This year, I wanted to be more thoughtful with my purchases. I went through the VBxTarget lookbook a week before and looked at the each piece and their description to see what materials were used. I ended up going with the poplin dress. I’m always a sucker for stripes because it’s such a classic pattern to have in your wardrobe. Also, considering the fact that warmer weather is on its way, a cotton dress is the way to go. On top of that, I can see myself styling it multiple ways. I love that I can style it with Converse, flat sandals, heeled sandals, booties or wedges so you’ll see it on the blog in the future.

I’m pretty impressed, guys. I ordered my dress early Sunday morning and it arrived at my house early yesterday afternoon! It was a happy Monday to me indeed!
