Dresses For A Flawless Summer To Fall Transition

August 21, 2020 · In: Fall & Winter, Fashion, Spring & Summer

The end of August is near, which means fall is upon us! I feel like this time of year is so weird for fashion. Depending on what region you live in it’s not easy to jump from summer clothes straight to fall. Here in PA some of our hottest days in the year can often come in September. And on a weekly basis it is hard to know what to expect. Just earlier this week it was in the 60’s, now it is in the high 80’s!

Needless to say, it is crucial to have pieces that can transfer easily from summer to fall. Today I wanted to share some of my recent favorite finds for all budgets that y’all can snag to add to your wardrobe for the upcoming season. 

Babydoll Dress from Francesca’s

I scored this adorable dress the other day, see it on in this pic on my IG. I think this is a great piece, it is so feminine, and it is so affordable. It retails for $48 but it’s on sale today for $25! Such a steal. I got a size S.

Sleeveless Ruffle Dress from Target

I’ve been seeing this dress everywhere and it is so cute! I love it by itself but when temperatures start to drop it would be great with a denim jacket and booties. It is size inclusive as well, it is available from a size XS to 4X!

Tiered Minidress by English Factory

I’ve been seeing so much online lately from the brand English Factory and I am honestly obsessed. Their pieces are so feminine and classic, yet on trend. I love this pastel green this season, it’s great for early fall. And the sleeves and tiers on this dress are just stunning. This dress could definitely be dressed up or down.

Striped Midi Dress from Draper James

How stunning is this button up dress from Draper James! The tie belt would make this so flattering, and we know I can’t resist navy stripes. This piece is a bit pricier at $135 but it can be brought back out for spring and summer, or worn year around if your climate allows it.

Zebra Stretch Dress from Lilly Pulitzer

The moment I saw this dress I knew it had to be mine! How fun is this print along with the easy silhouette? I am obsessed! Of course, Lilly isn’t cheap. But any Lilly lover knows they get their money’s worth of their favorite Lilly pieces.

I hope y’all enjoyed this little compilation! Make sure you are subscribed to my email list to be notified when I make a new post. There is so much fun fall and wedding content coming up. Stay tuned!

xoxo

The Summer I Went Through Fertility Treatment🤍 The Summer I Went Through Fertility Treatment🤍

No, I’m not pregnant. Yet🤞🏼
I’m finally ready to share what my world and entailed the past year or so. 

We got married in 2021 and like many couples decided to wait a few years before trying to have a baby. 2 years passed and we decided we were ready. Little did we know that would start a journey filled with heartbreak and frustration. 

A year came and went - no positive tests. So the obsession started; tracking ovulation, supplements, bloodwork. You name it - I’ve probably tried it! I went to my gynecologist and got put on a dreaded waiting list for an HSG. 5 months later no call back. So I decided to call a fertility clinic in January 2025, they saw me two days later. 

With a fabulous team of doctors, NPs, PAs, and nurses I got to where I am now. I have no diagnosis, and neither does my husband - bloodwork good, egg quality amazing, no cysts, fallopian tubes functioning, etc. On paper I’m good and still a mystery!

We opted for 3 rounds of IUI’s, all unsuccessful and traumatizing. So onto IVF. 

I’ve spent my last few weeks getting injection after injection, so much bloodwork, so many ultrasounds. And today we went do Maryland for an egg retrieval. 

This was not the summer I was imagining, but I’m so beyond thankful I was able to have this journey (and also get most of it paid by insurance😉). So now we wait on our 17 mature eggs🙏🏼 

I will likely keep my embryo transfer journey private until I have a confirmed pregnancy. But getting all of this off my chest I feel comfortable to post and share again🫶🏼

If you are going through an infertility journey - whether it’s been short or long. I pray for you. I grieve for you. I am you! My heart breaks for you.

Unhelpful and hurtful comments will be deleted. 🚫“just relax!” “get drunk” “it’ll happen when you least expect it!”🚫 

A special thank you to my handful of friends who have been my angels on earth this year. You know who you are✨
