Wow, I can’t believe it is already April! Is it just me or is this year flying by?? The next two weeks are also so busy for us with my daughter’s birthday this Sunday, and then Easter the following Sunday. I am still trying to get my Monday recipe post up, at this point it will be ready for next Monday! Ha! That’s just the way some weekends/weeks go! Here is what I wore last Sunday to church.
The dress and belt are another Kohls find. For me the dress by itself is too short so I paired it with black capri leggings. I love how the neckline of the dress is cut higher, but on the sides it still is kind of open so I wore a black halftee tank underneath. I love wearing a halftee when you really don’t need a full tank top but you still want the coverage on top. I bought a few half tees back when I was nursing and I still find outfits to wear them with!
My black capri leggings are from New York Company and my shoes are from ThredUp.
For my hair I wore it back in a pony tail in a small Lilla Rose flexi clip in Sable.
I think a flexi clip is a much prettier hair tie than a rubber band!
My necklace is actually one of the Lilla Rose hairbands in Clearly Jet. I just un-clipped the adjustable elastic part and clipped on the magnetic clasp add-on.
I love how it is such an easy way to make a necklace!
Here is how the hair band looks before I add the magnetic clasp so you can see it with the adjustable band. **For the month of April spend $80 at my Lilla Rose site and get a free hairband!
I hope you all have a great week! I would love if you would join my Friday link-up party!

A great idea to wear capri leggins underneath a short dress. The only reason I don’t wear dresses, but that’s going to change 🙂 Thanks for the inspiration!
Jen says
Thank you! So often things are too short for my taste so with leggings or a skirt extender it makes it so I have more choices!

Everything is too short when you’re my age, lol.

Adorable outfit! It’s such a blessing as an older woman to see the emphasis on modesty and how you beautiful young women make it so attractive!
Jen says
Thank you so much for your sweet comment! Have a great weekend!

That’s a beautiful dress and I love that necklace with it! What a clever headband that you can wear it different ways 🙂
Hope you have had a relaxing weekend and have a nice start to the week.

Cute outfit! I like the look of leggings under a shorter dress, but it tends to look a bit off on me. Maybe I am not wearing the right colour leggings!

Super cute! The belt was a nice touch. And yes, Kohl’s! I am sort of obsessed with Kohl’s. I always know when my next Kohl’s cash day is…
Jen says
Thank you! Yes, I have found some cute stuff from Kohls!

Hi Jen, Mrs. Fireman’s wife! Nice visiting your blog today. I’m hoping over from The life of faith link up. It’s refreshing to see this kind of post. I appreciate seeing how you styled the dress with the capri’s, as the dress was too short for church – but aren’t they all? 🙂 I never belt myself, but now I know what to wear with my too short dresses.
Thanks,
Tiffiney

Thanks so much for visiting and your kind comment! Yes, it seems like most dresses are too short, unless I get a maxi dress. 🙂 Have a great week!

Very adorable outfit! I like to wear leggings under shorter dresses – I have cut up some before to make them shorter if I thought a dress was too short but it wouldn’t look right with longer leggings. I still felt “covered up just in case” lol But yours looks gorgeous.
Visiting from Strangers and Pilgrims. 🙂 You are very beautiful.
Blessings,
Bibi

Love that idea. Kohls is the only clothing store in our small town. Love the clothes and all of the rewards 🙂
Jen says
Thank you! Yes I really like their clothes too!

jen – I am so sorry, it has taken me almost a whole week to stop by and comment from #TuneInThursday linkup last week. I was away at a Conference since last week and the wifi was practically non-existent.
I love the outfit. Especially the idea of a half tank top – I honestly haven’t ever heard of that before, but will have to check it out. I love the leggings under the dress idea, and also that you chose black and not a cream or white. You are looking so stylish.
Again thank you for linking up last week, and I hope to see you today at #TuneInThursday
Jen says
No worries! You are so sweet to come back and comment! I hear you on being busy. It has been that kind of a week for me too!

What a CUTE outfit! I, too, add layers to dresses that show a bit more than I would like. Thank you for sharing this pretty dress at Tuesdays with a Twist! -Marci @ Stone Cottage Adventures
