Easter Inspiration

Easter is right around the corner! 
We've got plenty of delightful decor ideas, and gorgeous outfits in pastel palettes to go along with them.
 Find both DIY projects and dresses ideal for your egg hunts, church services, and Sunday dinners. Delicate details like lace trimming or beautiful bows fittingly add femininity to the festivities.

We're feeling inspired by ombre! Mix up your holiday decor with clear containers displaying trendy ombre Easter eggs. Choose your favorite colors and vary the dyeing times to create variances in shade. Layer the deeper tones on the bottom and work your way up to the lightest eggs for the top layer. Keep the attention to detail going by wearing our Coral Bow Dress!


 Bring a bit of the outside in! Create a seasonal centerpiece by reinventing a piece from your shed or garden, such as a flower box. Fill with bright spring plants like tulips and lilies. Add some Easter eggs for a finishing touch. Give your guests something sweet to nibble on between courses - jelly beans as part of the plate setting will make them smile! 
And what to wear to a dinner with such a terrific table? We're thinking the Sun Bronzed Studded Dress is ever so fitting. 

 
Our new Pastel Easter Egg Hunt Dress has both the perfect name and look for the upcoming holiday! Partner this charming frock with a statement necklace, and you're sure to receive compliments.

An imaginative twist on Easter eggs? String your artistic creations up with ribbon to make a beautiful Easter tree. A fun DIY and a conversation starter for sure! Another outfit we're dreaming up for the occasion is our Garden Party Shift Dress. This adorable ensemble is the epitome of springtime chic worn with the Naughty Monkey Starshine Wedge.
 
With only a few days to spare, make sure you're aptly attired for Easter in both your decor and your attire. Shop our dresses online, or stop in the store and let us help you find the perfect head to toe look!

Maxi Dresses



Whether it’s a Sunday running errands or a Friday date night, maxi dresses are the long and lovely essential that never fails. Simplistically chic, there are endless varieties of print, cut, color and fabric.

A great benefit of the maxi dress is that you can layer to your desire. If daytime calls for a denim jacket (like the Rosie Light Denim Jacket), it can be effortlessly transformed with a fitted blazer for fancier evening occasions. 


Keep your accessories in check as well. Pile on bracelets and wear it with a leather belt at the waist during the day.  Transition to night with the switch to a bold statement necklace.



A few notes on fit. If you’re looking to accentuate a small waist or create curves, opt for a maxi with a drawstring or belted waist. Both the Calabasas Night Maxi Dress and Laguna Beach Colorblock Maxi Dress are perfect examples. Your middle instantly looks little, and your longs appear ten times longer. 
Choose an empire waist if you want to emphasis great shoulders and take the focus away from a pear shape.

Venture boldly into print territory! Both of these strapless options come in bright patterns ideal for spring and summer days. Try the Summer Fiesta Maxi Dress or Summer Radiance Maxi Dress.

Finish things off with the shoes! Flats are your best bet for footwear with these floor-grazing dresses. We're loving the new Gladiator Sandal with Metal Adornments in particular for it's shine, style and versatility.
