This is easily becoming one of my favorite dresses. I love a good Lilly, but they’re not always practical for city living, especially during the fall! I sadly packed away all of my fun, summery Lilly dresses… but luckily I picked up a couple of great dresses that transition perfectly to cooler weather. And the bonus? Both are under $100! The first is the Palmetto V-Neck T-Shirt dress which I wear seemingly twice a week and the second is the Corine dress!
Living in the northeast, it's all about transitional pieces…this one is excellent! You can even wear with boots when the temperature really starts to drop!
Love the color of that dress! & the puffer vest is super cute and the right piece for fall 🙂 xo, Amanda affordablebyamanda.blogspot.com Instagram: affordablebyamanda
confession: i've never been to fond of lilly, BUT i love this dress. the pattern is less flashy & i love love love it paired with this vest. awesome styling lady!
Nothing says summer to me like finally being able to have dinner outside with our friends. We are gearing up for al fresco dining with @mackenziechilds pieces in their iconic Royal Check– the blue and white pattern couldn’t be more “me” and fits in perfectly with my summertime aesthetic. I especially love that each #mackenziechilds handcrafted piece has a unique signature of its own and no two pieces are identical. Don’t forget to use my exclusive code CARLYROYAL15 to save 15% off for the next 48 hours. Valid once per shopper. #MCPartner #RoyalCheckCollection
Move over coastal grandmother, it’s going to be a red hot summer for me ❤️💃🏻🔥 I am love-love-loving red lately and I am incorporating the hue more and more into my everyday outfits. It’s a little bolder than I typically go for and, even though I’m three months postpartum, I’m feelin’ it! 👉🏻 Leave a comment saying “red” and I’ll send you the links to my outfits featured in the Reel!
My little roar-bear and I made it through the fourth trimester together 🧸 These past twelve weeks have flown by. I can’t wrap my head around the fact that we only just met- I feel like I have known Rory my whole life.
I have been calling myself a Chill Mom™️ since having Jack and now I’m realizing that I’m even chiller with Rory. (Like is birth order really less about sibling order and more about the version of mom you’re born to?) I’ve been just rolling with Rory’s infancy and I’m so much happier. Maybe it’s just that I’m more tired with a toddler too, or know that it’s going to go by so fast, or just have more confidence… probably a combination. I feel less obsessive and less stressed out by the details. I’m “making it” without having to fake it. As an example, today I noticed I hadn’t tracked a single nap- just watching sleepy cues and trying to get to a “good enough” pattern as Rory’s naps consolidate. Is he following a ~perfect~ nap schedule? No. Are we thriving? Frankly, yes!
(If you want to read my original Chill Mom post, comment “chill mom” and l’ll send it to you via DM!)
We came, we saw elephants, we ate ice cream 🐘🦒🦓 @ashleybrooke and I always talk about how we became FAST friends. Somehow we have been right there with each other during some of life’s worst moments… so it’s extra sweet that we now get to celebrate the good ones! Watching our boys play together, a little baby in a stroller, and another baby on the way… it’s everything we dreamed of.
I always hate packing my summer Lilly dresses away but I really like the print on that dress and it is a great transitional piece! Lovely outfit!

I don't know why haven't thought to pair that with Navy! I always get so sad when I have to pack my Lilly's away in the fall. Such a great idea!
