Wear it with Barrett: The Perfect Black Maxi Dress & Affordable Accessories

June 11, 2017 By Barrett K

Happy Sunday! I found the perfect maxi dress and it’s available in lots of colors AND it’s a great price! I’m excited to show you how I accessorized it too! This would be a great outfit for lots of different occasions.  I’ll also share some fun hats and great bracelets!

This might just be the perfect black MAXI DRESS! It is nice and long, and it has flattering gathered soft jersey fabric.  It is available in 6 colors and everyone needs this staple in their closet.  You could layer a cute cardigan or denim jacket over it for a different look too! This DENIM JACKET is my go to for layering! The wash on it goes with lots of different tops and dresses.

TASSEL EARRINGS | NECKLACE | BRACELET | CLUTCH | SIMILAR SHOES

The earrings are so fun! They add a pop of color and are the perfect accent to this maxi dress.  They are available in coral or turquoise too and the price is fantastic!

The clutch is one of my favorites! It is so fun to wear with a white t-shirt too! It jazzes up any outfit! The rose gold cuff has been a great bracelet that you can dress up or down!

If you were going to take said maxi dress to the beach or an outdoor occasion, you will need one of these great hats! I am loving all of the cute beach hats with cute sayings, but THIS is my favorite one! It has a great saying, colorful pom poms and sequin letters! Perfect!!!

I also really liked this BEACH HAT! I like the black grosgrain ribbon!

This bow floppy STRAW HAT is so cute too and it’s only $29! So glamorous!

I also wanted to show you some cute bracelet choices.  I love bracelets because they can add a little something to your outfit without breaking the bank.  These beaded stretch BRACELETS come with all 3 in the set.  Love the tassels and the stone too! The colors are so neutral that you could wear them with lots of different things!

 

I am also really liking these stretch BRACELETS, I am a huge fan of tiny tassels.  LOVE these!!!

They are also available in THIS color way… which set do you prefer?

Have you seen the Lokai bracelets? They are super popular and THIS new red, white and blue design will sell out soon! Remind yourself to find balance during life’s peaks and lows with a bracelet that contains elements sourced from the highest and lowest points on Earth—the white bead is infused with water from Mount Everest, and the black bead contains mud from the Dead Sea.

There is also a special edition red Lokai BRACELET.  It’s practically sold out! If you prefer the classic, clear bracelet, find it HERE.

This multi strand BRACELET is so cute!!! It’s only $30!

 

Last, but not least, is this beautiful semiprecious stone BRACELET.  My favorite color combination is the labradorite with gold! So pretty! This bracelet looks great by itself or layered for a fun arm party!

 

Hope you will try the perfect black maxi dress, or at least in a different color.  A good maxi dress is a great staple that we all need in our closet.  You can’t beat this one for the price! It’s easy to freshen up your accessories with a new beach hat and some fun bracelets.  I enjoyed showing you some of my favorite new finds! Hope everyone has a great week!

When designing our home the kitchen was such an important space. We spend a lot of time in there. I wanted it to be beautiful and functional. Here are some of my favorite features in our kitchen.

I’ve been on the hunt for faux flowers for my outdoor pots and I finally found a winner!!

🌸 comment SHOP and I’ll send you the links

I kept spending lots of money each season on real flowers and it was so much work keeping them alive!

I was looking for a better option and finally found one!

These faux flowers are
•BEAUTIFUL ....always in bloom
•ZERO MAINTENANCE ...no watering, fertilizing, etc
•BUDGET FRIENDLY ...these are priced great and you don’t have to replace them each season
•AND LOOK REAL. Some faux flowers are bad!! These really look good and unless you dig in there you’d never know they are faux

Each pack comes in a bundle of 2 bunches. Each bunch has 7 stems. You can plant 2 ways and I tried both. You can plant the bundle attached together and bend the stems (they are wired) to spread everything out....or....you can cut the bundles apart and plant the stems individually. I ended up doing that and thought they looked more realistic that way.  I ended up using 5 packages (10 bunches) for 2 large pots and 1 smaller pot.

I share both ways on IG stories so you can see the difference.

I also removed some soil and added floral foam blocks beneath, recovered with dirt and stuck the flowers in them.  I don’t think this step was necessary, but I wanted to make sure they were in there firm.

I’m so excited I now get to enjoy beautiful flowers with zero work 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Last year, Geoff and I added wires up this wall in a diamond trellis pattern. We planted creeping fig, but unfortunately, it all died this winter. I just planted Star Jasmine in its place so really hoping it survives. Texas weather is hard!. Thanks to a little AI magic I was able to create what my ultimate vision is. Fingers crossed it will look like this in a couple of years.

I just learned that May 3 is World Naked Gardening Day 🤣 I seriously can’t believe there is a day dedicated to this, but maybe lots of people need fences 🤷🏼‍♀️😉🌱🌿

Yall I recently discovered you could make fun art on ChatGPT using your own images for free! @ciarakenaston inspired me with her Beatrix Potter images and I did a deep dive and found you can do so many cool things!

🩵 Download ChatGPT if you haven’t already and have fun!

Upload an image. Can be of your home, your family, etc and then type in prompts to have it alter your image. You can play around with it and try all kinds of things but here were my prompts for the video

1. Beatrix Potter inspired illustration
2. Jan Brett inspired illustration
3. Vintage oil painting
4. E.H. Shepard inspired illustration 
5. Retro British cottage core style

If you do some be sure to share and tag me. I’d love to see them. Endless possibilities!!
