In case anyone’s looking for Memorial Day weekend and Nordstrom Half Yearly sales, here’s what I’ve been posting on Instagram.
I often post things on Instagram long before they ever hit the blog, and some might never make the blog. Follow along HERE @puttingmetogether.
Get ready, you’re gonna see a lot of this lace tee. I really can’t get enough of it! I’ve already talked about it a ton last week, so we’ll move on. I found some similar striped flats from Target HERE and ModCloth HERE. And, you can still get 15% off this watch and anything else at Daniel Wellington with code SPRINGAT until 6/15 HERE.

One of my favorite tops to wear. It’s really long, but the way it drapes makes it easy to half-tuck and not stick out all weird from the side profile. Currently $27.90 HERE. It says “dry clean” but Real Simple said you don’t have to dry clean unless it says “dry clean only.” If it says “dry clean” then that’s just the best recommendation for care. I usually hand wash this. Multiple readers said they machine wash theirs regularly and have absolutely no problems.
This bag is one of my most used because it goes with nearly anything color-wise, it’s super soft and feels luxurious, and can be worn as a crossbody which is why I use it so much. Currently $39, down from $65 HERE!
These jeans are from Old Navy, and while the distressing is the perfect amount for me, honestly the butt gets saggy so I’m looking for a replacement. Since the Nordstrom Half Yearly Sale is happening (HERE) I ordered two to try, both under $45. One is already sold out, but the other is HERE in two washes. The medium wash doesn’t have as much distressing as I’d like, which some of you might appreciate. Fit wise it runs large IMO. I’m normally 6/8 or 28/29 and I got these in 27, which is equivalent to 6 on this jean’s size guide. And they had room to spare. My rec is to go by the 4/6/8/10 size and get the waist size equivalent according to the chart. And if between sizes, definitely go to the smaller size. I’m excited for the lighter wash to arrive because it has more distressing, and while it doesn’t replace this medium wash Old Navy pair, a lighter wash is something I’ve wanted as well.

THIS CLUTCH IS BACK IN STOCK!!!! This is the cutest leopard print clutch I’ve seen besides the original Clare V. one that is crazy ridiculous expensive (HERE). This one is only $40 and it’ sells out super freaking fast. Get it HERE (heads up: affiliate link–thank you in advance!) and search “Amy” and you’ll find it.

Wore this to church yesterday flying solo as Benson was out of town on a men’s retreat. I second-guessed the wedges since I anticipated carrying Addie quite a bit along with all her junk (not pictured here: additional million pound diaper bag). Surprisingly, I didn’t regret the wedges!

Yep, the lace tee again but in a fiery red. This is from last week’s Orange Red Color Combos post, so I have yet to wear this outfit but it needs to happen ASAP!
Also, these are the comfiest wedges I’ve ever worn. They’re a little pricey, but even though they have a heel I don’t hesitate to wear them no matter how much walking I’m doing (except hikes or something!) because they’re that comfortable. I’m normally 8.5/9 and went with 8.5.

And before we go, in light of Memorial Day I want to express gratitude and give honor and appreciation for those who sacrificed their lives for our freedom. My prayers go out to any families who are honoring someone really special today.
