Happy Friday, friends, and cheers to the weekend! We’ve got one more day in this dreamy little gem spot in Mexico (sharing lots of peeks on Instagram Stories HERE), and you know I’ll share all the scoop here, as well. It’s been a great place to celebrate 24 years of marriage!
Today I’ve got this month’s Dressing Room Diaries for you, and it’s chock full of the cutest new arrivals, from a mix of retailers with a range of price points! My job is to find the cutest things, at the best prices, and I think you’ll love these! (I know I did!!)
You know the drill with Dressing Room Diaries… the shots aren’t good, the lighting is bad, and I’m in desperate need of a hairbrush. But it’s real life, real girl, real clothes… and hopefully helpful for you to see them this way, instead of perfectly styled on a model. So let’s get started!
Fit Note: I’m 5’4″-ish, 125 pounds-ish, with a slight pear shape. My usual size is XS/2.Â
Dresses //
Dresses are always the biggest category this time of year… they’re seriously all I want to wear! Especially when I get to design the styles I love most… like our best-selling GLxHSP Decked Out Day Dress now available in white! Yes ma’am, everyone’s favorite little Summer dress launches today in a brand-new color way.
We made this for steamy Summer days and nights… it’s a gauzy cotton blend with a subtle plaid texture, fully lined in the softest rayon, with an easy-to-wear a-line shape. And of course pockets! Pair it with flat sandals or wedges for a range of occasions. And just like my entire Hello Summer Collection, code SUGARPLUM10 saves you 10%!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS.

Decked Out Day Dress (code SUGARPLUM10 to save 10%)
I’ve been drooling over this print and silhouette online all Summer, and was thrilled to find it’s even cuter in person! Made of a crisp, soft cotton poplin, it’s floaty and light, with adjustable straps and the cutest cut-out on the back.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size 0.
Tie-Back Patterned Maxi Dress
Slide Sandals (size up half) | Woven Headband | Jewelry: Victoria Emerson x Hi Sugarplum Party Box
It’s hard to beat a classic shirtdress, unless it’s a classic shirtdress in the most flattering fit-and-flare shape! This one is a sturdy cotton poplin with a touch of stretch, and comes in a bold teal and fresh white. It has a removable tie (add this belt for a fun style, too!), operational buttons, and petite collar. I prefer a heel with this skirt length, but taller girls can pair with a flat, too.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS.
Tie Waist Maxi Dress (code SUGARPLUM10 to save 10%)
Soft Miller Sandals | Jewelry: Victoria Emerson x Hi Sugarplum Party Box
This dress had me at textured trim! I love fun details like this, and this dress is as soft and comfy as it is cute. Super lightweight, with flutter sleeves and a flirty length, I wear it with sandals and over swimsuits.
Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS.
Embroidered Flutter Sleeve Dress (code SUGARPLUM10 to save 10%)
Slide Sandals (size up half) | Jewelry: Victoria Emerson x Hi Sugarplum Party Box
Always a fan of a ruffle trim, this easy dress has a flattering halter neckline and tiered skirt. Cinch the drawstring for a fitted waist, or keep it loose as a causal a-line. It comes in this bold cherry red and a warm olive.

Fit Tip: I’m wearing an XS.

Floral Puff Sleeve Blouse (code SUGARPLUM10 to save 10%)

These tops have the fluttery sleeves and ruffled neckline I’m loving this season, with a relaxed shape. The floral is a silky material, while the solid is a textured cotton blend. It comes in a ton of shades, and I had a hard time choosing a favorite!
Fit Tip: I’m wearing a small, but would prefer my usual XS for a better fit under the arm.

I don’t know where you stand on Roe v Wade and I hope I never do. You have a great blog and business from it. I am turning off all social from people who feel the need to use their social platform to give their personal opinion. Most of the social media I follow is fashion and design, based on the posting of so very many in design I will only be following fashion. Guess I’ll focus on how I present and not how my home looks :). I am a Christian and my position is based on my faith. My advice refrain from stepping into this media storm – God has it!
