Today we’re continuing the Five Ways series of transitioning to Spring, and this outfit is made for parties and showers, or even the office! (See day 1 with blue and yellow here, and yesterday’s casual stripes and tassels here.)
The moment I spotted this dress online, I knew it had to be mine. Can you believe I found it at JCPenney? You know I hold a soft spot in my heart for them after my special Mother/Daughter collaboration last Summer!

Gingham is everywhere this season, and I couldn’t be more thrilled. It’s the perfect happy, preppy pattern, and pairs well with stripes and florals. (Did you see the sneak peek of gingham coming in my Gibson x Hi Sugarplum Collection May 29?)
When the days get warmer, I’ll lose the jacket…and you could always swap the shoes to these cute wedges or these ruffle flat sandals for a more casual style.

I guess you could say I’m officially obsessed with these strappy sandals, considering I now have four pairs!! They come in a slew of colors, the price is unbelievable, and they’re legit comfy for standing and walking all day! Well played, Penneys!
Fit Tip: The shoes run true to size, and I was thrilled to see the dress offered in a shorter, petite size! I’m wearing 2P.
I picked this straw market tote and tassel up earlier this season, but was surprised to find so many darling options for a fraction of the cost at JCPenney! And check out these fun hats! I seriously want to book a trip to the Kentucky Derby just to wear one of them!

Yep, this gingham cutie definitely passes the dance test! I actually wore this entire combo for Easter, and know I’ll be pulling it out again for all the fun Spring events ahead! Have you shopped JCPenney lately?
