Embroidered Denim Jacket + Blue Midi Dress

 

Embroidered Denim Jacket (c/o Olive + Pepper) Off the Shoulder Midi Dress (c/o Olive + Pepper)

 

While Labor Day is around the corner, the weather here in Chicago feels more like typical April weather. Lots of rain and temps warm one moment and chilly the next.

With ever-changing weather, my wardrobe staples have included layers I can add and remove like this easy fit denim jacket from Olive + Pepper. A denim jacket is a classic and I love the on-trend embroidered detail on the back of this one.  It’s perfect for layering over a sweater on chillier days or draping over a lightweight dress like this off the shoulder ‘Sofia’ striped midi dress (also from Olive + Pepper, available in red, too!). The thoughtful button and tight-waist details and midi length make it a one-piece outfit to wear from the office (with a blazer) to drinks. Or in my case, I can still chase around my little ones during the day in this dress with sandals or sporty sneakers, and for date night, pair it with a cute wedge heel sandal and fun handbag. (Note: This is not a maternity dress, but I sized up one size to a medium to accommodate my growing bump).

One of my favorite outfit choices in the warm months are breezy, one-piece options like a midi dress or jumper. No matching decisions in the morning. Just pull it on and you look pulled together for the entire day.

What are your go-to wardrobe favorites you live in during the spring and summer months?

XOXO,
