Soft Garden Blue Flower Maxi Dress curated on LTK

A year and a half later and there’s finally a new Saturday Shopping post live on the blog!! While I’m purchasing fewer pieces of clothing since my job doesn’t require me to dress up daily that hasn’t stopped me from browsing my favorite sites for cute fashion finds and who better to share them with!? Not so shockingly my favorites happened to mimic my favorite colors. I’ve linked what I can on the Liketoknow.it app, but all items can be found linked on my blog at www.PrepInYourStep.com #LTKunder50 #LTKunder100 #LTKFind

Loving this Julia Amory Coatue dress for summer. I’m wearing it in a size small unbelted but it does come with a matching belt and is available in a variety of colors and two lengths. I wore it to work but also plan to wear it to dinners this summer too! This colorway is currently on sale

Amazon’s activewear has been hard to beat lately! I’m loving this pleated skirt that reminds me of a version by Spanx. It comes in 4 colors and I sized up to a medium! You can see the built in shorts through the lighter colors, so if that bothers you stick to the darker shades. This top is also so soft while still being a soft material. I’ve linked a cute workout dress as well, but it’s better suited for those shorter than me (5’7”) and it doesn’t have shorts built in. You can see these items in action on my Tik Tok, @prepinyourstep2!

$20 Amazon tote bag with light blue and navy coloring and navy faux leather detailing on the bottom! The inside is striped and adorable and has two open pockets as well as a zipper pocket. The size is perfect to use as a work tote, beach bag, or to take to the farmer’s market!

Walk with Winnie outfit. This Old Navy workout dress has quickly become a favorite! I’m wearing it in a medium and paired it with the only workout sneakers I buy, Brooks’ Ghost tennis shoes

I love a set for summer and this blue and white striped set from Mango is a great price and the pieces make great separates. I especially love the tailored look of these shorts and the hand painted design of the blue and white stripes!

Introducing you to your new favorite wedding plus one, the @nori press! I packed mine for a wedding last weekend and on top of being pretty it’s practical too combining the function of a steamer and iron all in one. With six fabric-specific heat settings and the ability to iron without an ironing board I’ve found myself reaching for it for everything from clothes to curtain trim and even cloth napkins! If you’re shopping for a graduate this would make an incredible gift too

A bright spring dress for a black tie wedding last night!

I’ve been slowly trying to accumulate art for our walls, and my mom brought the perfect solution with her the last time she visited! She gifted me some handpainted plates she received as a wedding gift and an invisible edge plate hanger that I decided would be a great way to add some color and interest to the corner of our living room! While plates may not be “art” they make a great affordable option that can make a big impact when hung in a group. This is the perfect solution to any one off plates you may see at antique stores or estate sales!

I’ve linked what I used to hang the plates as well as some cute plate finds on my Amazon storefront: https://shorturl.at/wSU16 (https://shorturl.at/wSU16)

I couldn’t let too much of April pass before sharing what I read in March! I found myself listening to more podcasts than audiobooks this month, but I’d love recommendations of books to add to my reading list for this month. Head to my stories for my rating of each book I read or visit my Amazon storefront to shop all of what I’ve read so far in 2024!

From around the house to out the door, this @lakepajamas Hammock Shorts Set can be worn for it all! I’m loving this new launch of lilac and loved this silhouette so much I got it in the blue and white stripe set that sold out last summer.

And for anyone concerned about the heath of the flowers in this reel, they are now thriving again despite looking a bit wimpy in this video. #lakepartner

I’ve put together my best tips for applying tape trim to these Amazon curtain panels! I did another pair of these last summer and after being so impressed by the outcome knew I’d be doing a second pair for our guest bedroom.

This pair of panels is $70 on Amazon and they have a pinch pleat header, the pleats are already well trained, they come with drapery pins, they’re blackout, and they even have a weight at the bottom to make sure they hang nicely! You can get them in multiple colors and lengths, but this pair is “white” and the ones in our bedroom are “natural.”

I ordered my trim from Etsy and have linked a collection of favorite trims in my stories (also on my LTK AND YOU CAN FIND ME BY SEARCHING “prepinyourstep”) if picking out trim seems overwhelming! Keep in mind that a wider trim may make it trickier to adhere to the pinch pleat but will make more of a statement. I wouldn’t choose anything wider than 3.5” and tend to base the curtain color on the background color of the trim to make them feel more cohesive and professional!

We use these with curtain rings and French return rods which I ordered from Amazon and have linked on my Amazon storefront.

Let me know any questions you have and be sure to send me a picture if you decide to try this method for adding trim to your curtains!

Cute scallop Amazon new arrivals. I love the new take on these scallop pillow cases and have ordered the scallop bath mat in our hallway bathroom. The ric rac detailing on the tote is an adorable touch as well, and everything shown is under $25!

Comfortable (and affordable) workout dress and pullover for a full day of organizing and wallpapering our new shop in Florida! I love the square neckline and built in shorts of this Amazon workout dress. I’m wearing a medium in the regular length!

Our bathroom just got the cutest upgrade thanks to @LushDecorHome gifting us their Coastal Chic Scalloped Edge Shower Curtain in Navy.

From brewery to loungewear and then back to just the top for dinner this Quiet Culture set fits all the Saturday occasions! I’m in a medium

Finally getting around to sharing photos from our end of October Wedding Weekend! We started the festivities with the most beautiful bridesmaid’s luncheon with family and bridesmaids thanks to such gracious hostesses. Fun fact, the house where this was hosted is the same house where Hunter & I got engaged adding to all the fun memories here with friends that feel more like family!

I really struggled with what I wanted to wear for this and landed on the most perfect white dress with blue bows by @janesummersnewyork! They offer a variety of silhouettes that fit a number of bridal occasions and this style (James Strapless White Tea Length Mermaid Style with Light Blue Ribbons) was exactly what I had hoped for. I even decided to put on my wedding shoes a day early thanks to how perfectly they matched the ties!
