Jeans- Gap in over dark wash
These jeans deserve a post of their own, they are that great! I originally found them while with a client at the Gap. She tried them on and the fit was excellent, the fabric didn’t have too much give, and they were a true skinny (skinny at the ankle). They are a mid-rise, so they suck you in but are still comfortable. I’m telling you, I could stop this post right now, because these skinnies are that good. In fact, I went back and tried them on myself just to take pictures to share with you guys. Did I mention these skinnies are really, really good? -ha!
Shoes- TopShop
I am in love with these sandals! If you’ve been looking for a summer sandal, look no further. Plus they are a great price! Trust me, I’ve looked at them all -ha! I like that they are the gladiator look, but not too out of the box. They come in brown, too! I saw a girl wearing them, and they looked great. If you want to splurge on a sandal, I came across these recently. Someone hold me back, I waaaaant!
Top- Nordstrom ON SALE
I originally found this top while I was with a client. She bought it in 2 different colors, because it fit so well. Then I bought it for myself, and now its on SALE! What I liked about this top is that it’s the perfect casual/dressy top (you know what I’m saying). I like the neckline, because sometimes I don’t what to worry about a cami or how far my shirt comes down. And I love the split back detail. It doesn’t open too much. It’s pretty awesome, and it’s a great price!
Clutch- J.Crew
What summer outfit would this clutch not go with (the black is actually blue, it’s not a great picture)? That’s right, none! And for that reason, this makes this the perfect summer clutch. Well, and not to mention that it’s DARLING! If you have an upcoming event, consider this to go with your dress. Or heck, build your entire outfit around this clutch! Either way, you can’t go wrong, because it’s sooooo cute!
Shoes- New Balance
Ummmm, Hi…. Maybe I should just claim myself the tennis shoe blogger so I can justify buying another pair of tennis shoes. I can’t stand it, I want the navy pair sooooo bad ( I already have a grey pair). Ummmmmm, what doesn’t go with navy? Shoot, I’m in trouble. Ha!
When I found this with a client, I started flipping out. It’s a great deal for a chambray shirt, and it’s the perfect shade of blue. I can’t explain it, but this faded blue goes with everything (I know because I have a similar chambray shirt from J. Crew that I wear all the time). For this reason, I hopped on it! I had been searching for a replacement in the back of my mind, because lets just say the arm pits are not looking so blue anymore. When my sister saw it she said it was perfect for Rodeo! Well, I agree, and I say it’s perfect for everyday! Oh, and the necklace is super cute, too!
Shoes- Converse
I’m going to go ahead and claim this to be the best monogrammed item I’ve ever seen. I already have a pair of high top chucks, but if you don’t, here is your excuse.
Earrings- Kate Spade, Nadri
I’ve been looking for a pair of studs to wear everyday that I can also wear swimming or working out. I have my dimaond studs that I love, but I wanted something a little different. These fit the bill, plus I like that they are blingy (but not too blingy), so they stand out more than just metal would. These are the Kate Spade, but I found a Nadri pair that look identical and are less expensive… yes, please!
Dress- Madewell
Ok, I love this dress. I’ve already worn it and got coffee all over the white part. If I hadn’t, I’d dedicate an entire post to it. It’s flattering, modern, sophisticated and comfy. I’ve worn it to church, but I’d just as easily wear it on a date or on a girls night.
Top- Madewell, Flares- Madewell
If you are looking for a pair of flares, these are great! I liked the way they held me in (comfortably), and when worn with a heel, they are super flattering. Am I the only one who is always drawn to blue and white tops?
I love this dress from the Gap! Talk about EASY and cool for the summer. It’s about the softest thing EVER. I can see wearing it everyday with flats, sandals, or tennis shoes. You can dress it up with a wedge, or you could even wear it as a cover up! You guys have to watch the video to see how flowy it is. I’m wearing a medium in this picture.

Hi! Weird question! When I click on the link under the Gap jeans, it takes me to a fitting room picture of you in a striped tank and white jeans. Where is the tank from, it is super cute! Love your Favorite Finds by the way. You have great style!
Carly Lee says
Hi Shelly, thank you so much for letting me know! I have fixed the link. The tank is from Anthropologie- here is the link (http://bit.ly/1EA53HV). Thanks again for your comment!

Love that chambray shirt on you, do you mind me asking what size you’re wearing?
Carly Lee says
I’m wearing an xs in the picture. I hope this helps.
Janelle Sisk says
I was wondering if I could please ask what brand and color is the pale pink polish that you are wearing.
It is the perfect shade.
Thank you!

Hi, I’m wearing Fiji by Essie. I blogged about it here: https://shopcstyle.com/2015/03/favorite-finds-7.html – I hope this helps.
Ema says
I am also always drawn to white/blue tops. I tried that one and I think it is adorable, I am waiting for a sale on it.
That black/white dress looks fantastic on you. I have never noticed it in my store but I tend to ignore dresses (I have too many)
Amanda says
For online ordering purposes, did you find the black shirt that opens in the back to run small or large?
Carly Lee says
I’m wearing an x-small in the picture, which is true to size. I hope this helps.
Allison Thompson says
Sorry to bother you with another sizing question, but I was going to order that Urban Outfitters top…do you know what size you wear? Thank you!
Carly Lee says
Hi Allison,
I’m wearing an XS, and I recommend sizing down.
Jennifer Wendel says
What size are you wearing in the madewell shirt dress? Do you think it runs large?
Carly Lee says
Hi, I’m wearing an x-small in the picture. I would size down. I hope this helps.
