Hello from St. Petersburg beach, friends! It’s been a dream staying at the Don Cesar and soaking in the beautiful seaside… and has given me the excuse to break out some gorgeous summer pieces to boot!

One that I’m thrilled to share with you today is currently 20% off in Shopbop’s site-wide sale! Word on the street is this sale will open to the public tomorrow, BUT you can use the code EVENT18 right away for 20% off of orders under $500 and 25% off of orders over $500!

And trust me, you’re going to want to use that code because I splurged big time on this pink ric rac dress. I don’t usually spend that much on a dress, let alone a casual one! But once I booked my ticket to St. Petersburg and my room at a pink hotel, my resistance to this darling piece was wearing thin.

Y’all know how hard I’ve been crushing on ric rac lately, right? And in my signature color? Impossible to say no to!

Even though it cost an arm and a leg, I’m head over heels in love with this little frock. I make sure to use this underneath when wearing as a dress, but also wear this dress over swimsuits as a cover-up when I’m headed to the beach! It’s one size, so keep in mind that I got the straps taken up to make it a bit more proportional to my frame. Taller girls, because of that you probably wouldn’t have any trouble at all with it!

As if the pink isn’t cute enough, check out this design in multi-color, navy, black multicolor, and white and navy! Act quick, these cuties are selling out like hotcakes!

Love from Florida,

Kate

P.S. The sandals I’m wearing in this post are ALSO included in the sale! I’ve had them for over a year and have worn them all over the world. See where-to and why they’re my favorite here!
