Little known Milka Rose...

I have realized that the modest shopping community does not know much about Milka Rose, especially when one woman posted dresses from them which were being sold by another person with a really high mark-up! I think they have some of the cutest modest dresses I have ever seen and thought they definitely deserved a highlight on my blog.

This orange dress in the middle is my absolute favorite, such a classic dress that will never go out of style.

Chic and Sassy Polka Dots!

Whether you are looking for a sweet and sassy casual top or a chic dressy blouse for work, polka dots are all the rage this season. Here are some of my favorites on the new arrivals list at the Limited, Downeast Basics, and Anthropologie:

Sweet summer skirts!

One of my personal shopping obsessions are knee-length skirts... probably because it was always hard for me to find them since I am so tall and fashion trends make skirts SO short generally. That is why I am especially loving the new line of summer skirts from Downeast Basics that was released this week. There are so many fun and flirty patterns and colors to fit any style or event! As someone who owns at least 10 of their a-line skirts I can attest to their comfort, quality, and general fabulousness!
Here are some of my favorites from their new line:

Downeast Summer Line Continued

To continue feeding my raving review on the newest Downeast Basics line comes their super cute summer tops. There are so many new styles  AND they have also added new colors of the flowered cardigan! I have this cardigan in hot pink and I am so glad to see it come back, especially in so many new colors. My favorite new top however def. is this polka dot one in the middle, cute to the tenth degree!

Saavy Summer Dresses

The new Downeast Basics line just came out this morning and I am all in a tizzy about their great new styles! First up are my favorite dresses for their summer line. They have the best colors and styles while remaining modest yet fashionable. Unfortunately some of them do not seem to be long enough for us really tall girls but the rest of the population is in for a treat!

She works hard for her money...

After a successful but long first week in corporate America all I want to do is sleep.... and of course shop! Here are some of my favorite new work outfits from Ann Taylor Loft. I love when companies put together their own outfits, great for getting ideas!

A formal affair from Downeast Basics

I am so excited about Downeast coming out with a formal dress line especially because it seems like a few of their styles are long enough for me, and being 5'11 that does not happen often with their dresses!
I think this lovely flowered pink dress as well as the elegant navy dress are simply gorgeous and am trying to decide which one I want for my sisters wedding this fall. They have several other beautiful shades and styles, including the long formal black tie dress and the sassy silver ruffle dress shown below and with so many options you are sure to find the perfect fit for your formal needs!
