I’m always on the lookout for a dress that I can wear year-round. And I’m happy to say that I found one I love! This denim shirt dress is light and breezy enough for Spring and Summer with sandals or flats, and I thought it would also look very stylish with brown booties in the Fall too. I’m going to have my eye out for a new pair of booties during the upcoming Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for sure. But there’s so many things I love about this denim shirt dress, so I want to share all my thoughts with you.

Gingham Trend: This Summer’s Most Classic Trend Favorites
Hello Monday, Hello SUMMER! Now that it is officially Summer, let’s talk about this season’s most classic trend – Gingham. I love gingham because it’s trendy but also timeless. It has been a staple since the 50s and 60s, and now there are so many modern options too. This chic pattern adds so much dimension and interest to any look, so it’s great to add to your closet. The best part about the gingham trend is that it works at all price points and in all different colors. You can wear it as an accent in a handbag or shoe, or go for a full on gingham look with a dress or statement pant like mine (sold out but similar here). Now let’s discuss all the ways you can wear the gingham trend this Summer!
Reasons to Love Cute Shirt Dresses this Season
I’ve definitely mentioned more than once that I love cute shirt dresses! They are just so easy, versatile and classic. I think we all can appreciate a simple work to weekend option that’s polished with both structure and femininity. Shirt dresses are light and loose, so they will conceal any problem areas for you. Or if you want to define your waist, try a belted shirt dress like mine (sold out but similar here). So why are shirt dresses so great? Let me tell you!
How to Wear Colored Shoes and Make them POP!
Did y’all know that we have just a little over a week left of Spring? I can hardly believe how fast it went! Although I always love starting a new season, I sometimes find it difficult to think of fresh outfit ideas toward the end of every season. Don’t you? So a couple weeks ago, I went shopping with a friend and stumbled upon these fabulous yellow shoes on MAJOR SALE (they come in black too). These are the kind of shoes that totally make an outfit. This inspired me to style an otherwise simple monochromatic look on top, which allowed my shoes to really POP! And it got me thinking how hesitant some of us may be to buy a bold shoe. That’s why today I want to share with you my best tips on how to wear colored shoes…
How to wear a wrap dress at any age and size
Wrap dresses are simply timeless! They define the waist and can even hide the tummy. I love this new wrap dress (also comes in pink stripe) because it’s so flattering but not too revealing. So I wanted to share with you today how versatile wrap dresses are. Especially during the Summer, these are an easy and feminine go-to!
Why the Fit and Flare Dress is Flattering on Everyone
Happy JUNE! I hope everyone had a great weekend. We had a super relaxing one and just got caught up on tons of “to-do’s”. Good thing because June is the month for non-stop travel over here at TanyaFoster.com. Let’s talk about this dress… Do you know what dress style is universally flattering on everyone? Well today I’m going to share my secret with you. It is the fit and flare dress. Seriously, this dress is so slimming and creates an illusion of a smaller waist! So I just had to share my thoughts on this with you let’s go!
How to Style White Eyelet
Last week I wrote about LBDs (see here), so now it’s time to discuss the LWD – or little white dress! Little white dresses were all over New York Fashion Week for 2019 and they are definitely here to stay. It’s a little bit lighter and fresher than a little black dress, yet still a versatile classic. And the best way to do a LWD for the season is in white eyelet like my dress pictured! So today I am giving you a curated collection of options of not only white eyelet dresses but white eyelet tops, shorts, jeans, shoes and swimwear too. Eyelet is everywhere, so I suggest jumping on the trend NOW!
The beauty of M.M. LaFleur
Recently I received this dress from M.M.LaFleur and have fallen in love! I love how versatile, classic, and conservative this piece is. It’s essentially a faux wrap dress that is ideal for women like me who like to conceal their décolletage! There’s thankfully no malfunctions with this dress, yet it’s elegant and flattering to transition from daytime to dinner. It feels a bit like wearing a lightweight silk scarf – soft and drapey. In fact, I had Ramsey video my photography session (sort of a behind the scenes) so that you can see how the dress moves. It even comes in a top version. Almost all of the pieces come in several colors too! M.M.LaFleur offers a lovely selection of classic but modern staples that are great for work, luncheons, and everyday wear.
