Coco Shop Dress use code XOJULIA for 10% off, Veja Sneakers

If you scroll through my Daily Looks, you will notice that my closet is brimming with floral prints and patterns, which trickles over into my home as well. I’m drawn to tiny flowers blooming with romantic refinement, as well as bold florals that are refreshing and fun. My assortment of dresses includes a combination of botanical florals in cool cottons and linens, some with embroidered patterns, and others in pastels and bright prints.

Though I have been sharing more than a few floral dresses lately, including some of our new Gal Meets Glam Collection pieces, I wanted to bring a round-up of more styles I’ve been eyeing that I think you will enjoy, with this beautiful Coco Shop dress with a flattering fitted bodice and pleated ankle-length skirt to start with!

Gal Meets Glam Collection Sloane Dress

Welcome to our April Gal Meets Glam Collection! Vibrant colors and intricate patterns fill these easy-going pieces with spring and summer in mind. I was intent on using soft, lightweight cottons and linens for an airy, natural feel, even more important right now as we lean towards comfort and ease-of-wear. A-line silhouettes, tie-closures, an optional tie waist, and small butterfly sleeves are some of the ways I’ve lightened-up this season’s collections to bring you styles you’ve been asking for.

Once again, we are revisiting our time spent in the beautiful Bahamas earlier this year, where palm trees, bold stripes and vintage decor created the perfect background to share our dresses with you. We hope you enjoy a bit of sunshine coming your way in our gallery of April Gal Meets Glam Collection styles, plus receive 15% off on all styles and free shipping for U.S. orders today through May 3rd!

Petite Plume Pajamas for Mommy and Baby

Loungewear has taken on a whole new meaning this past month, crossing over from pieces we wear every now and then to daily favorite styles. Though I am still partial to wearing a dress if given the choice, I’ve been slipping on other loungewear pieces every now and then to switch things up a bit. I especially love pieces that cross over from pajama-wear to chic loungewear that I can live-in all day. The lovely part about loungewear is that it is so easy to slip on and forget about. Comfort and style are the most important factors in deciding what qualifies as loungewear, at least in my book. Casual and put together styles to compliment our wardrobes this spring and summer seasons.

Cotton Shorts

These cotton shorts from Lake Pajamas are perfect for lounging around the house, but could easily be worn for a walk around the block as well. Pair them with this pima tee for a super relaxed look.

Floral-Print Pajama Top

This dainty floral cotton blouse is a pajama top that can easily be worn either way. Pair it with white linen joggers or favorite jeans for an easy loungewear style.

Drape-Back Dress

The loose silhouette of this drape-back dress from Cuyana, in soft pima, makes it the perfect everyday dress. Wear it with a slide sandal to compliment the casual look.

Horror Vacui Dress (similar here and less expensive here), Sarah Flint Perfect Block Sandal

Thank you to Sarah Flint for sponsoring this post.

I find it uplifting to take a little extra time each day to get ready. I have made it a practice to get dressed up during the week to keep me feeling like I have somewhere to go, even if it is simply to the stool at my kitchen counter to work for the day. We’ve spent a lot more time at home since Clementine was born and this daily routine really helped me while I was on maternity leave, too. For shoes, I’ve been switching between different styles, with an emphasis on comfort. For those of you like me, who prefer to add a bit of height every now and then, these Sarah Flint Perfect Block Sandals are a natural choice, since they are as comfortable as they are stylish. They conveniently come in three different heel sizes, 30, 60, and 90mm (I’m wearing the 60), as well as a variety of colors (mine are Sand Calf) including Black Suede, White Calf, Gold Nappa, and a beautiful, limited-edition Blue Jacquard.

Sarah Flint designs with an added slip-free leather sole to withstand the hazards of outdoor wear, while remaining comfortable enough to wear indoors all day. The Perfect Block Sandal Collection signature features include extra footbed padding, a wider toe box, and an inset block heel, making issues with walking in heels a thing of the past. Handcrafted in Italy, each pair is guaranteed with a free cobbler service to ensure they last a lifetime. Best of all, Sarah is offering $50 off with code SFJULIA so you can experience wearing the Sarah Flint Perfect Block Sandal for yourself!

Little Lemon and Lemon Dress

I’m so thrilled to introduce the lookbook for our Little Gal Capsule collection. These mommy & me pieces hold a special place in my heart, as two of the prints, the clementine and lemon, were originally hand-painted in water color by my sister, Lauren Taylor Creates, for my baby shower at the beginning of last year. When I saw them, I immediately knew they would transform into the most beautiful dresses for mamas and their minis alike. They inspired this whole collection, which I now get to wear with my own daughter. The minis will be available in sizes 6m-3t, all sold separately. All of the pieces will be available to shop this Thursday, April 2, 2020 at 12 noon ET!

When I designed the Little Gal capsule, I imagined so many happy moments with moms and their littles. Easter with family, spring trips with friends and the warm sunshine bringing us all together outside. With the impact that Covid-19 has had on the entire world, many of those moments have been put on hold. We are fortunate enough though to be spending this time together, safe inside with our loved ones. It’s in times of crisis like this, that we remember what’s truly important, and that’s the health and safety of our friends and family. Unfortunately there are millions of parents and children who don’t have those basic needs being fulfilled. That’s why I am donating 100% of my profit from the Little Gal capsule to Baby2Baby, a non-profit organization that has been working around the clock to get diapers, hygiene, formula and more into the hands of children living in poverty impacted by Covid-19. I hope you all love these pieces as much as I do, and know that if you are able to make a purchase, it’s helping to go towards a wonderful cause. If you’re not able to buy one of our Little Gal capsule dresses, you can still make a donation to Baby2Baby for any amount here.

Thank you to Olay for sponsoring this post.

I mentioned on IG stories two weeks ago that I added Olay Hydration Serum as part of my skincare routine. Serums have more recently become an essential step in my routine, used right in between washing and moisturizing. They offer a more efficient way to deliver specific nutrients that our faces need, with this one in particular giving me the extra hydration that my dry skin is craving.

What’s great about serums is that you can use them to tackle a specific area for you, offering greater customization. You can even choose a different serum depending on time of day or how your skin is feeling in the moment.  Olay’s recently launched serums have offerings for most needs. My skin tends to be more dry, that’s why I’m using the Deep Hydration with B3 and hyaluronic acid to help maintain moisture. Achieving hydrated, dewy skin is always a top goal of mine when choosing items in my skincare routine.

Since using Olay’s Hydration Serum for about two weeks, I’ve noticed how much more dewy and hydrated my skin looks. I just apply a few drops of the serum after I wash my face and before I apply my moisturizer. It’s like a big gulp of water for your skin! It’s especially great this time of year when everything is feeling extra dry.

Completing the collection, Olay also has two other serums: Tone Perfection Serum and Wrinkle Correction Serum. If you’re new to serums, consider checking out one of Olay’s. Olay also recently made their Olay Skin Promise which aims to achieve no skin retouching across all advertisements, including their work with influencers. I love this commitment as I’ve always striven to present our images in authentic form.
