TGIF! I hope that everyone affected by the crazy winter storm in Texas is safe and that you all have restored power. It looks like we are finally entering spring weather next week. While we did have a rolling power outage for several days, ours was a minor inconvenience compared to what other are going through. Keeping everyone in my prayers!
Today let’s look at a gorgeous spring look. Who doesn’t love a gorgeous designer piece? I’d wear couture and carry designer bags every day if I could, but obviously that’s not an option. I’m sharing a couple of designer pieces to splurge on, and a couple of similar pieces that are a steal. Keep scrolling to see all of my SPLURGE versus STEAL favorites and click on the image above to shop the items.

Splurge v. Steal
This Zimmerman floral midi dress is gorgeous. I love the colors in it and think it would be perfect for spring. It’s a little pricey so this floral tiered dress is a great alternative. It also has beautiful colors. I love how both dresses are long sleeved, tiered mid-dresses that are cinched at the waist with a V-neck line. This style is very popular this spring. It’s perfect for a daytime look or to pair with heels for a spring wedding.
Speaking of heels…these Bottega Veneta beige mules pair perfectly with these floral dresses. I love the square toe. It comes in five great colors. For something less expensive, these Steve Madden slide sandals are perfect. They also come in black. The slide sandal is a must-have for your spring wardrobe.
If you’re searching for some accessories, this Bottega Veneta pouch bag is beautiful. It comes in 13 colors. It’s a popular bag silhouette this spring. If you want to try it out for a lower price, get this very similar TopShop ruched clutch. You can find more of my dreamy splurge versus steal favorites below. I tend to splurge on designer handbags, shoes, jewelry, sunglasses, and outerwear. If you buy quality, classic pieces, they will never go out of style.
Happy weekend! I’m grateful for you and your support. Thanks for stopping by.

Such a helpful post! Thank you.
If you could only invest in one designer bag, which one would it be and what color?
Oh gosh, that is such a hard question Julie.
I think a nude YSL bag or black Chanel will always be classic!

Swooning over the beautiful pink gown – wow, that would make a statement!
Thanks Kelley!

I have to splurge on handbags. The ultimate is always a Chanel flap bag….I especially love the 2.55.
Ashley,
So true! Chanel is timeless.

I would splurge on handbags and shoes. However, that pink gown makes me what to change my mind.
Barbara,
Handbags are a great thing to splurge on! They are an investment and will last forever.

So many beautiful midi dresses. I would be sweeping the floor. What is a short girl to do?
Hi Tanya, glad you’re safe, I’m with Linda I’m 5’4 midi length comes down too long on me. Please post sometime daytime casual dresses. In late spring to early fall I mostly wear dresses in Scottsdale bc it’s so hot. Love these dresses but I’m a more tailored gal.
Well, you can always get them altered. And many of them come in petite sizing.
Hope that helps!

I love all of your choices. I will take all of them!
Thanks Barbara!
