The Clean Green House Blog: Stepping into Summer in Comfort (and a budget!)

***This post is sponsored by Walmart & ShopStyle, but all opinions are my own.***

Have you ever paired two foods together that have the BEST, somewhat unexpected, flavor? Think: Bananas and peanut butter, or according to my 9 year old, a hot dog and sweet and sour sauce. (Not sure where he came up with that one, but he swears it’s the BEST thing ever!)

I was SO excited to hear that two of my favorite brands were teaming up to create an amazing collaboration. The Lord & Taylor premium brand shop, now featured at Walmart.com, takes things to a whole new level. It’s the perfection team up and together, it’s a wardrobe dream of flavor!

You’ll recognize a LOT of higher fashion premium brands, but with the familiarity and convenience of Walmart.com! Walmart has relaunched a newer version of their website that is much more user friendly. Not to mention, they offer free 2 day shipping on orders over $35! How awesome is that?

I had absolutely NO problem finding some new pieces for Summer. My style is, what I deem, “Stylish Comfort.” You know, clothes that are put together, but I can still easily wrangle a few kids in. The Lord & Taylor + Walmart.com team up had so much to choose from that fit the bill. Mama’s looking good!

I’m a sucker for ruffles, and this tiered sleeve white top, is SO versatile. I love it with these black ankle pants, but it would also go great tucked into a pencil skirt! Aren’t the double ruffles an awesome detail? They take a more basic white tee to a whole new level of femininity.

Can we also discuss these black ankle jeans? I feel like these are going to soon become my “go to” jeans. You could literally wear them with just about anything. The ankle length is perfect to show off a hot shoe – and wait till you see a close up of MY hot new shoes.

Are you kidding me right now?
Gingham and platform espadrille?
Could there be anything better?
Tell me these aren’t the best thing ever!

Confession time: I have a thing for ruffles (If you don’t gather that by the next outfit I put together from Lord & Taylor).

I paired this ruffled top with a stylish pair of destroyed skinnies and came up with the perfect effortlessly cool combination that will basically take you through all seasons.

Aren’t the details on the sleeve playful?

I felt like these jeans were the right amount of “destruction” as well. Sometimes I feel like TOO much destruction is a little too teenie bopper for me. These make me feel trendy, but still age appropriate. Not to mention, the price was right! (I would suggest sizing up one size.)

Speaking of details – an outfit is MADE by the little things we like to call accessories. And Lord & Taylor did not disappoint in that department!

After I spent way too much time drooling over my favorite things to collect – aka SHOES – I made a quick and easy decision to go with these comfy, three strap white sandals. I mean, those pearls? Can you even? I feel like the white will really show off my summer tan too!
Have you fallen in love yet?

Another favorite touch were these turquoise beaded earrings. A good pop of color really screams SUMMER don’t you think? And you won’t believe the price! Totally in the budget!

As you can see, the choices are endless when it comes to the new Lord & Taylor premium brand collection on Walmart.com. It’s easy to shop, and obviously easy to create amazing, comfortable Summer (and Winter/Spring/Fall) outfits.
The only issue? It’s impossible to pick just ONE thing!
So excited about this delightful team up! Be sure to check it out!
