You bet I tried them on, and they’re ALL fabulous! I love how they just seem to disappear on the foot, leaving a little shine behind. @DSW has so many options, plenty to appeal to any style preference.

Would you wear a clear shoe, or will you pass on this look?

Summer shoes
Invisible shoes
New shoes anyone?

#LTKselfcare #LTKOver40

I’m not one to chase trends, but if something catches my eye and piques my interest, I’ll likely give it a go.

I adore all the clear shoes on the market. They elongate the leg, and almost disappear when you’re wearing them. I want to give them a try, but which pair should I get?

All of these options are available @DSW . They have the biggest selection I’ve found.

Linen (or linen blend) pants are a great staple for summer. They’re cute, breezy, and an excellent alternative to wearing shorts. Pair them with tank tops, blouses, tees and jackets. They look good with so many pieces!

OH MY GOSH - the color of this dress IMMEDIATELY caught my eye, and I had to try it on. I love how the mannequin features the dress with a slim belt. I’d pair brown shoes and a bag that complements the belt. OR, if you choose to wear a white belt, pair it with white or clear shoes and a white bag. Good jewelry would look beautiful with the color of the dress. I’ve linked lots of options to pair with the dress below.

The size I tried on isn’t quite right, but I got a good idea of how the correct size would look on me. The straps are adjustable, so that helps customize the fit. The back panel of the dress is also stretchy. I’m wearing a size S but definitely needed to size down. I’d say the dress runs big.

The dress is 100% cotton (hooray for natural fibers), and has POCKETS. So bright and beautiful.

This dress is currently on CLEARANCE at @Macys (Score!)

The sun is starting to peek out more in Chicago, but the temps vary drastically throughout the day. Layering will be my go-to concept until the weather catches up with the season. Plus, layering is such a great way to take your outfit up a notch.

I adore this oversized, corduroy button up top. Here, it’s serving as my outerwear over a lightweight sweater and bootcut jeans. The slim jeans help to balance the bulk of the oversized shirt.

Choose a fun blouse instead of a regular tee or tank to elevate your outfit with little effort.

Wearing a pair of clear shoes elongates the leg and puts the focus on your adorable outfit.

Inspiration is everywhere, especially on the expertly styled mannequins in stores. If you find a look you like in store, shop your closet to see if you can recreate the look before you purchase anything new.

This outfit is from LOFT. I’ll link the pieces shown here in case you’d like to purchase any pieces you may not yet have. The skirt from my closet was from the athletic collection at Old Navy several years ago, and the open stitch top was from a prior season at Loft.

This is the most romantic dress. It’s hard not to feel like royalty in it. High quality fabric and beautifully made. 97% cotton, 3% elastane.

This dress is KHAKI in color (although it looks white in photos).

I’m 5’4” and am wearing size 0 petite. The top of the dress is quite snug, so I would have preferred to size up.

This gorgeous dress is the perfect staple for your spring and summer closet. Beautiful, full skirt (twirl-worthy!) that hits at the ankle. Though it looks white in photos, it’s actually khaki in color. So versatile, and can be styled in so many different ways.

This dress is perfect to wear on Mothers Day, graduation ceremonies, awards banquets, church, brunches, you name it

I’m 5’4” and am wearing size 0 petite, although I’d prefer size 2 petite. The top is very snug.

There are lots of handheld steamers out there, but my favorites are by Conair. This one takes about a minute to heat up and is very easy to store in your closet. Use a hand mitt to protect your free hand from the hot steam, while giving you a firm surface to easily steam out wrinkles.

Honorary mention for the Conair Handheld Garment Steamer (black steamer linked below), which has a few more features than the Conair Complete Steam Portable Steamer seen in this video. I’ve used both and am impressed with what they both can do.

Lots of thought goes into those mannequins on display. Use them for inspiration as you look for similar pieces in your closet. Then, shop for any “holes” or missing items your wardrobe could use.

Mannequin was on display @kohls
I’ve tagged as many items as possible, in case there’s a piece you really love. PS - I think the denim shorts I linked are exact, but I’m not 100% positive.

This is an easy way to keep your outfits current without having to spend any money. Look at how the mannequins in stores are styled. (This mannequin is @kohls ) You may already have similar pieces that you can style in similar ways. Lots of thought and effort go into the outfits on mannequins, so you can bet they’ll be on trend.

The outfit in this reel features a structured jacket, loose blouse, belt, denim shorts, and neutral summer sandals. You probably have many of these pieces, but draw inspiration from the mannequin when styling your pieces together. You can use that “formula” to pair together other pieces you own in different colors.

Shop your closet first, but if you like any of the pieces featured in this video, they’re linked below.

I’ve also linked my jacket (Z by Zella) if you’re interested. It’s still cold where I live and I love to throw it on over my clothes.

*correction - the sandals on the mannequin aren’t raffia. But, they are a neutral tone that matches the denim jacket. That’s what’s important to note in this outfit.

Quick, easy, and ZERO drying time required!

I’m not a fan of wearing fake nails, so this manicure set by Dashing Diva was right up my alley. They’re nail stickers that adhere to your nails and mimic a professional manicure. I only had a few minutes left before heading to a wedding the other day, and was able to knock this out in 10 minutes. Lots of colors and patterns to choose from!

I love finding accessories that are both classy and versatile. Take a look at the pearl accents on this bag and slides. They would pair beautifully with skirts, dresses, shorts, and cropped pants. Very versatile for spring and summer!

A sexy dress doesn’t necessarily show a lot of skin, but is selective about how much and where the skin shows through. This is a fairly short dress, but it’s balanced by long sleeves. This would be the perfect dress for a date night.

Nude or gold heels would look great with this dress.

In all 3 pictures, I’m wearing the same top (blue chambray top over a white tank). Notice how different the outfits feel with each pair of jeans. In my opinion, the tops pair best with a loose fit or relaxed jean, such as the pair in the center. There’s a good balance between the somewhat loose top and the loose jeans.

On the contrary, the other jeans feel unbalanced. The skinny jeans in the left are a bit too tight, and the wide leg jeans on the right feel too frumpy with the looser top. What are your thoughts?

Skinny jeans or wide leg jeans with this outfit? Honestly, I’d prefer something in between, such as a relaxed straight leg or a boot cut. The skinny jeans look too tight and the wide legs look too loose. The search for the right fit continues!

When you buy a new piece, make sure you can wear it with several pieces you already own. This will help ensure that what you’re selecting will get a lot of wear.

This skirt from @target is one of those pieces that can be paired with so much. I stopped at 12 outfits, but it’s so versatile, I could have kept going!

Don’t just wear your skirt, STYLE it. The skirt and top are cute, but it becomes a complete outfit with the addition of the wrap belt. It plays on the colors in the skirt, and draws the eye to the waist line. Finish off with brown raffia flats or slides and a raffia purse.

Here’s a perfect outfit for a casual spring day. LOFT calls these pants their work-to-wherever, go-all-day pant, and I can see why. Very sleek, yet comfortable, with a midrise waist and a semi slim pant. I’ve paired it with a cotton-linen top. Add a raffia belt and bag, as well as some gold jewelry and flats.

It’s the season for spring dresses, and LOFT has a great selection. I love this tie waist striped mini dress. Very cute and very comfortable. I’d pair it with gold jewelry, a raffia bag, and strappy sandals. I think it would also look cute with white sneakers.

The weather is getting nicer, and that means it’s time for skirts, skorts, and tank tops. To keep it upscale (but still comfortable), opt for well-fitting pieces in fabrics like cotton and linen. I also feel like a skort has a nicer look than shorts, so it’s a great alternative.

I’d pair this with flat, strappy sandals and a raffia handbag.

After searching through dozens of dresses, THIS one is perfect for a wedding I’m attending later this month. It’s an absolute winner and makes me feel like a million bucks. Under $100 with lots of colors to choose from.

Comfy, supportive, and very pretty. I love a nude heel for elongating the leg and letting the outfit steal the show. This pair is gooooood!

Comfortable shoes are a big part of self care, in my honest opinion. This pair is a winner
