CLUB MONACO SCALLOPED SHORTS


It's supposed to hit 72º in New York today (cue me happy dancing and/or roaming Central Park barely clothed) and for the first time summer doesn't feel so far off. Given my newfound obsession with all things scalloped, it should come as no surprise that I'm deeming these cuties the must-have shorts of the season. The chambray is a classy update to everyone's go-to jorts and the white will go with anything and everything in my summer wardrobe. Which pair will you be snagging before summer hits?

P.S. Pop back in at noon for a second post! #feelingambitious

OUTFIT {JOLIE & ELIZABETH}


One of the most rewarding aspects of writing this blog is discovering and partnering with awesome new-to-me designers. My friend Hattie introduced me to the line Jolie & Elizabeth and it was pretty much love at first sight. As a small business owner myself, I love supporting fellow female entrepreneurs and was impressed to learn that all Jolie & Elizabeth dresses are made in the U.S.A. I was certain I couldn't pull off this mint color but Hattie convinced me to give it a go and I'm so glad she did! This dress was made for twirling through Central Park on the most perfect sunny day and I know it will see many evenings on Nantucket this summer. 

P.S. Hattie is graciously offering all Design Darling readers 25% off all Jolie & Elizabeth pieces in her online store through Friday! Use code DESIGNDARLING at checkout and be sure to let me know what you find! I'm totally eyeing this number myself. xx

SHOWSTOPPER

Try telling me this is not the coolest cuff you've ever laid eyes on. Rose Pierre's sparkling sea cuff (I mean, that name alone!) features jagged quartz stones on a polished gold cuff. It almost looks like coral, doesn't it? And it's the kind of piece that could stand on its own sans stacking. Listen to me trying to justify my next spring purchase...!
