Friday Buy Day (on Monday)

Summer is finally here and we are bringing you our favorite sale picks from around the web to kick off your leg-baring days ahead.

First up, this sexy dress by for Love and Lemons.  Nude lining peaks through the beautiful lace cut-outs and the flared sleeves are a perfect complement to the deep-v.  If you are a little nervous about the low neckline, try wearing this with a delicate lace bralette in a similar ivory color that provides a little extra coverage without taking away from the feminine playfulness of this beautiful dress.  Now on sale for 40% off the original price, this sexy dress can be worn with a leather jacket and suede cut-out heels for a night out, or with ankle-wrapped sandals and a top knot for a birthday brunch.

We absolutely love these bralettes from Urban Outfitters!   With a scalloped neckline in the front and a sheer lace back they are perfect for layering under a racer-back tank or peaking out of a low cut dress when you want a little extra coverage (see above).  They come in a variety of colors and are now on sale for $20!  Stock up and thank us later...

There isn't too much else to say about these sandals except that you NEED them in your closet.  Part espadrille, part gladiator they are the perfect Summer accomplice to cropped jeans, flirty skirts, floaty cover-ups and off the shoulder dresses.  At under $130, the price is hard to beat for a pair of shoes that should forever replace those flip-flops you have (unless you are getting a pedicure of course).

There are few outfits we love more than an embroidered, slinky blouse with ripped jeans and high-heels.  There is something so simple, yet so sexy about such an effortlessly chic look.  This tunic is divine.  The tassel trim, the gathered wrists, and the intricate embroidery make it a necessary addition to your closet.  Pair it with destroyed denim and suede cut-out heels, or try it tucked into flared denim with stacked wedges.  This blouse is the definition of bohemian elegance.

The perfect Summer denim is here...distressed at the knee and frayed at the hem, these Joe's Jeans will take you from sneakers to stilettos.  With all sizes left and hovering on sale around $130, act fast and scoop up your size of this stylish Summer staple!

And you know Summer is on our minds when we start blogging about swimwear.  This crochet black one-piece is sleek and chic.  With a plunging neckline and open back it channels classic glamour and modern lines...not to mention it hides any tummy while still looking utterly sexy.

And lastly, this cover-up.  Cover-ups are kinda like sneakers...we really (really) love them and we are constantly on the hunt for some new additions to our collections.  But, much like sneakers, they can get really pricey...and so it is even more thrilling to fall in love with one that is super reasonable priced (and by super, we're talking $54!!!).  This breezy caftan is effortless, chic and belongs in your suitcase for your next sunny getaway.

We hope you enjoyed this week's Friday Buy Day...Today is the first official day of Summer and so it feels fitting that we are bringing you our favorite sale/value picks from around the web with sunshine on our minds!

Friday Buy Day 8.21.15

The schizophrenia continues this Friday Buy Day as we straddle the sales of Summer with the delicious Fall offerings flooding the stores (and the internet).  As always, we are bringing you what we want to buy right now...and everything is either on sale or is sold at a super reasonable price point.

Summer is not over yet...in fact it is just beginning for us San Franciscans.  And, everyone knows how much we love a romper.  At $84, this darling romper with 3/4 sleeves, a tassle-tie neck and bohemian print is a steal.  Wear it with gladiator sandals to a backyard BBQ, or pack it on your next weekend getaway for a comfortable and stylish outfit. 

Now, onto some transitional pieces that you can wear now, later and always.  I am obsessed with this printed button down from the Gap.  It has a subtle cactus print, a perfect chambray color and  would look fantastic peeking out of the cropped cable knit sweater (look to the right).  Finish off the outfit with the leopard d'Orsay flats and master the art of a perfect print mix.  The cropped cable-knit sweater (and for those of you who are worried about the word "cropped", it is not really cropped...it hits at the hip) comes in cream and black and has rich, woven detail that is hard to see from the pic above.  The sweater not only looks great layered over a button-down, it would also look great with skinny sweats and sneakers, or try it with a leather skirt and statement necklace.  As for the shoes, wear them with everything.  They ease they grunge factor of ripped jeans, feminize the masculinity of boyfriend jeans and look just as good with a skirt as they do with ankle-length pants.  These three staples have endless uses, are all under $100 (seriously) and will never go out of style. 

Okay, back to Summer with this darling printed dress. With a cut-out back and easy shape, this one is a crowd-pleaser.  For a more transitional look, try it with low-heeled suede booties and a cropped leather jacket. 

Seems a little random, but I found this brand of workout pants at Urban Outfitters and I love...like really love...them. They are sexy, flattering, wash well and priced well below your favorite Lululemons.   And who can say no to another pair of black workout pants:)

Lastly, this ethereal dress from Rebecca Taylor. Cream lace, peasant sleeves, a flounce skirt and flattering neckline make this the perfect dress for day or night, work or play. For now, try it with studded gladiator sandals and a top-knot.   In the Fall, pair this with booties and a wool fedora for an Isabel Marant inspired ensemble. This dress is feminine with a bohemian flair and will definitely find a place in my weekly line-up of go-to's.

Whether it's a new pair of workout pants or a new pair of leopard flats, we hope you found something (or a few things) to spice up your wardrobe. Have a great weekend!
