Allow me to blow the dust off of BrandiSoileau.com please. It has been FAR too long since I last sat down to just write. I’ll be honest, I’ve never considered myself a strong writer, so I just sort of avoid it. When I started this online journey over 3 years ago I naively intended to just share outfits on Instagram. Then discovered you truly need a blog that is 100% your own thing, and that intimidated me.

My Stay in Charleston at The Restoration Hotel,

My Hotel Stay

When I think of Charleston-or, what I thought before visiting-is small, quaint, pastel houses and buildings, and good food. That’s all I really knew. Oh, and King Street. And Southern Charm.

Happy Monday, friends! I had the most relaxing weekend I’ve had in a while, which consisted of meeting a friend I haven’t seen in months for coffee/brunch/catch-up! I also did a little shopping and ended the weekend with yummy food and a funny movie. Hello Girls Trip!

Do you ever wake up in the morning and just want something easy to throw on, where you don’t have to put too much thought into your outfit?

How pretty is this pleated olive green dress?! Best parts are that it’s right on trend for the fall season with the color and the pleat detail, it’s under $20, yes, I know-what a steal-and it would look so good under a black leather jacket! It also has just the right amount of edge with the slit in the top front. If you are a little more busty I would size up.

Love at first sight with this navy midi cut-out dress! I spent the month of July in Dallas, which means I was there during the beloved #NSale. In one of my shopping escapades I noticed this dress on the rack. I picked it up, thought, how cute, checked the brand and wondered why I had never heard of it. It’s by Soprano. Have any of you heard of it before??

How to start transitioning your summer wardrobe into your fall wardrobe: Sound crazy? It’s not as complicated as you think! If you are anything like me, when I’m in a season I go all in. I’m talking in the summer time you will usually find me in white jeans, white skirts (see above!), a white linen dress, you get the picture.

Happy start to a new week! I love beginning the week with a positive attitude, even if what lies ahead may not be very exciting. A little placebo effect, if you will ;). It’s been a busy weekend and a crammed-full Monday, hello Bachelorette finale. My weekends have been so jam packed lately, too. I can’t wait for a little bit of a slowdown!

In other news if there is one color I wear the most between the months of May-August…it’s white.

I am a sucker for all of the blue and white striped tops this summer, and I am in LOVE with this top most! If you read my post HERE you would see that this retailer is killing it lately, in my opinion! This little beauty is only $14…seriously!? and runs TTS, mostly. I’m in the small. It does have a stretchy hem at the top, all around, to be sure it fits snug.
