Happy Friday, gang! It’s hard to believe, but summer is right around the corner. Before we shift into full-blown beach days and backyard BBQs, we’re taking a moment to savor the sweet days of spring. These final weeks bring golden light, soft breezes, and a reason to blend relaxed style with fresh flavors. Join us for alfresco inspiration—casual late spring style inspiration, a floral twist on a gin cocktail, and a grilled flatbread that highlights summer’s favorite fruit.

Good American High Rise Palazzo Jeans | Vince Linen Muscle Tee | Sam Edelman Embellished Bay Slide Sandal
There’s something about palazzo jeans that feels just right this time of year—structured yet breezy. I’m wearing the Good American High Rise Palazzo Jeans, and the flowy fit is a refreshing change from skinny styles. I paired them with a Vince Linen Muscle Tee, which keeps things cool and polished.
On my feet? The Sam Edelman Embellished Bay Slide Sandal. They add just enough sparkle to elevate the whole look without trying too hard. Perfect for a patio lunch or casual cocktails with friends.

Loft Linen Vest Midi Dress | Tkees Lace-up Jo Sandals
I have featured the Loft Linen Vest Midi Dress recently, and unfortunately, it’s sold out in petites. But if you’re regular-sized, definitely snap this dress up! If you are petite, check out my post: Summer Midi Dresses for Petites for my collection of petite midi dresses. I am truly bummed this dress sold out in petite sizes so quickly because it’s a gem.
I kept the look grounded with the Tkees Lace-up Jo Sandals —minimal and barely-there, they elongate the leg and work with just about everything in my closet. It’s a look I’ll be turning to again and again during these sweet days of spring.
