Sandal Season is my favorite season! Someone asked where do I live to always be in sandals.
Well, I’m from Charleston, SC it’s a beach area where most people wear sandals year around. That’s definitely where my sandal addiction comes from. Now I live in Atlanta, there’s no beach but it’s hot af here.
I’m not ashamed to admit these isn’t half of my sandals just my favorite current pairs!
ALL shoes are my TTS except 6

These are VERY comfortable. The style isn’t for everyone, they’re a bit chunky but they’re beautiful and comfy! The nude shade is hands down my favorite, such a beautiful colors.
These have mixed reviews regarding comfort. IDK what people expected, Clarks comfort for their grandma?
These are a fun, hot girl summer sandal in flats form.
Regarding comfort, do you see that cut on my big toe in these photos? That’s from these sandals (lmao). They are very flat, like most sandals, so they’re not good for a full days wear if you’re walking around.
Point is, these sandals are NOT for walking around town or a full days errands but leisurely relaxed shenangians.
These are a thicker leather so they need to be broken in. I’d say they do run a bit narrow. This style also comes in a croc textured cognac, they are beautiful!
Perfect for pool or beach days. 5+ color options, I’m wearing the Blush. I wore these running errands the other day and they were comfortable the first few hours then started hurting a bit. But they’re jellies so don’t expect the comfort of your favorite sneakers.
The newest pair to my collection. Obviously, these are a splurge. I’ve wanted these for a solid 4 years but I was too broke or trying to make my dreams my reality and designer sandals weren’t a priority. Now that my dreams that I’ve worked so hard for have become reality I splurged on myself. I’ve earned it!
It’s week five of the 30 Day Spring Styling Series!
We are kicking off the Spring Season with a 30 Day Styling Series (30 days on Instagram and Tik Tok, 5 weeks on my blog).
Each day for 30 Days I’ll share a Spring Outfit Styling Video on both TikTok and Instagram reels and each Sunday I will post a round up of the looks from that week here on juliamarieb.com
The styling videos on my social channels show a closer look of each outfit, movement of fabrics, etc while they’ll be more detailed information like fabric, fit and inventory levels will be here.
In the Fall I did this series just on Instagram and TikTok and you all loved it so much so we’re bringing it to my site as well so the content lives forever and is easier to find.
This week I’m sharing looks 27 – 30 of the 30 Spring Outfits!
This has been a fan favorite on social media. It comes (came) in 3 different washes, I have two and have shared both in the Spring Styling Series.
The availability online has been released, sold out, restocked and sold out again. I’m not sure if the medium and light wash will restock again or not. Currently, the dark wash is still available. I found the Medium Wash in store when it was sold out online so check your local stores if it’s not online.
I LOVE a button down denim dress in the Summer. It’s my favorite run to the store dress. It’s perfect for bloated days. I highly highly recommend it!
My only CON is I wish it was an inch shorter, just slightly above my knees. I am 5’4″ so if you’re any taller the length should be perfect on you.
Last year I looked high and low for a minimalist chic black sandal under $100 and it was impossible. This season I found this pair for $60, considering the scarcity of a good black sandal the price is great lol!
I saw this bag in store a couple of weeks ago, not only did I stop I also spent time with it, tried it on and everything.
I left without it because I always need to let a handbag purchase sit. IDK why but I’m very indecisive about handbags, it may be because I rarely switch out my handbag so I have to decide if I want to potentially waste money on something I won’t use or get my full monies worth. So I went home, kept thinking about it and after a few days made the purchase.
It is a beautiful bag, I love the monochromatic detail the most.
CON: it is a mini bag so it doesn’t fit much. Card holder, phone, keys and maybe a lip balm … but she is cute!
A personal favorite and Hot Girl Summer must have, imo. I have wanted a chunky name ring like this since I was in High School so when I was able to add it to my shop I jumped on it!
The metal is 18kt gold over sterling silver so you don’t have to worry about it changing colors. It’s a piece you’ll have for years!
This is a Summer must have imho, it’s a flowy proper vibe but feels like a light weight sweatsuit. It comes in 6 – 7 colors so if you want beach vibes there’s a mint or go for the cream.
CON: this fabric snags on EVERYTHING! Do not wear jewelry, handbags or shoes that may snag. Even with the snagging con I still love it and don’t care, I’m just mindful.
Also Free People, these give a cool retro vibe. For $25 they’re fun to try out! I linked them online but I believe they sold out … I bought mine in store. They’re the black.
This long sleeve ribbed top is a must have (there’s a tank version too). It gives you a hug while smoothing you out. The ribbing helps to camouflage anything you may want to add a little camo too. I’ve worn this irl more times than I can count and have styled it for you on my blog and socials at least 5 times. It just goes with everything.
Summer MUST HAVE!!! I have melasma and last Summer (due to quarantine walks) it was aggressive. Since then I’ve been adding to my hat collection, a strong hat collection in the warmer months when we’re outside more is grown woman shit lol. Hats help to block aging spots, freckles (aka sun spots), hyperpigmentation and just overall aging overall.
I know it’s Spring but I’m thinking about Summer and these earrings scream Summer Fun! That’s it, That’s all! I recommend!
These are very light weight.
So light weight my earring back fell off (my error, I didn’t actually put it on) and even with no earring back the earring stayed perfectly in my ear long enough for me to film a styling video.
I love love love these, they’re so much fun especially for the warmer months. Originally I had just the J then decided to add the B for a stacked look.
A personal favorite and Hot Girl Summer must have, imo. I have wanted a chunky name ring like this since I was in High School so when I was able to add it to my shop I jumped on it!
The metal is 18kt gold over sterling silver so you don’t have to worry about it changing colors. It’s a piece you’ll have for years!
Amazon came through with this one! There’s at least 10 variations; sleeve length, skirt length and colors. Beware, the thigh slit is HIGH!!! I’m 5’4″ and it has ridden up to almost thigh gap level.
Because of the slit I recommend sizing up.
Fabric is stretchy and soft, does NOT show every nook and cranny but it’s $30 ish so it’s not a miracle worker.
Last year I looked high and low for a minimalist chic black sandal under $100 and it was impossible. This season I found this pair for $60, considering the scarcity of a good black sandal the price is great lol!
A canvas tote bag is a Spring / Summer must have this season. This specific bag has both a top handle and shoulder strap. Unfortunately, this colorway is sold out right now (I did link it in case of a restock) but there’s a solid 10 more colors (linked)

This week I’m sharing looks 20 – 26 of the 30 Spring Outfits!
My absolute favorite sandals. These are a bit of a splurge but worth it (to me) I bought this pair 3 Summers ago and they’re still my most worn sandals.
My absolute favorite, most worn jeans especially in the Spring and Summer Because of the loose fit they fit well wether my weight is up or down or even if I’m just bloated.
A canvas tote is a S/S must have. This bag has a shoulder strap as well that can be worn on the shoulder or crossbodied. This exact colorway is sold out but I linked a few other colors for you.
I really love this dress because it’s more polished than my oversized denim dresses (that I also love). It gives a chicer vibe, something that could be worn to work or on date night with a heel. I do believe this exact style is sold out so I linked it and a few similar styles.
Yes, yes and yes! I love how subtle the shoulder detail is and how chic and on trend the color is. I plan to pair this with jeans for a more casual look.
I wanted this style last year but never found them, this season retailers are finally hip and added this style. Not too many because it’s not a super mainstream style so you have to jump on this style when you can find it. My specific pair sold out within 1-2 weeks. I linked them anyways just in case along with every single similar pair I could find on the internet. I’m passionate about this style is all I’m saying. I
These sandals have mixed reviews because apparently some people thought they were going to get orthopedic comfort with them. No ma’am! These are for the ladies who like to shine! Highly Highly recommend! These are not made for walking though.
My favorite piece from my shop! I got mine last Summer and it was my most worn piece. It’s 18kt gold dipped so you don’t have to worry about it changing colors.
My absolute favorite, most worn jeans especially in the Spring and Summer Because of the loose fit they fit well wether my weight is up or down or even if I’m just bloated.
A best seller from my shop, I’m wearing mine on a 14″ chain. All jewelry is 18kt gold over sterling silver so you don’t have to worry about it changing colors.
I scored this last Summer … I love a metallic gold especially in the Summer. It doesn’t fit much inside; keys, card holder, phone and maybe a lip balm but it’s cute! This color is sold out so I linked what I could.
It’s week three of the 30 Day Spring Styling Series!

This week I’m sharing looks 13 – 19 of the 30 Spring Outfits!
YES, you need this! I love this top, I wear it regularly. It goes with everything, the fabric is slimming and smoothing and did I mention it goes with everything.
Good News: I love and am obsessed with these 90’s Highwaist Jeans. Bad News: They’re sold out. I did link them just in case they restock or other washes are released.
Thrifted Classic London Fog trench! Highly recommend checking your local thrift stores for coats. My favorite is Value Village. If thrifting isn’t for you, spend your coins … I get it!
These are not new around here. I bought them 3 Summers ago and they are still my most worn sandals. I wear them at least 2-3 days a week in the warmer months and they still look brand new. They are a bit of a splurge for a sandal but for me they have been 100% worth the price.
One of my favorite sandal purchases this year. I’ve been hearing “bad” feedback on these and not to say DUH to those people but DUH!!! .. yes, they’re heavy for a slide (have you seen the size of the rhinestones), yes, the leather may cut a toe in those first wears (like a lot of sandals) and yes, the sandal is flat flat so it has no support (once again, like a lot of sandals).
DUH these aren’t a pair of Clarks your grandma wears for comfort.
These are for fun, Hot Girl Summer action, and vacay vibes. I love them and recommend them. IDC. IDC.
I scored this blazer in store at H&M, $35. I have not seen it in store and the associate said they had it for a while so it may be sold out. I did link very similar options in the same price point.
This is SHORT, like SHORT SHORT. If you are taller than 5’4″ do not buy this. If your 5’4″ or under and aren’t afraid of SHORT I would suggest sizing up to give you a little more length.

I have melasma and that sun attacks me and my face in the Summer so I am expanding my hat collection. This hat is a linen-cotton blend with a cognac leather strap in the back. I think it’s a great Summer basic and pretty chic for a baseball hat.
Personally, I exclusively got this top to go with the trousers. It’s not something I would have bought on it’s on … top was gifted btw for full transparency. WTBS, it is great quality and fit. there’s elastic in the back so it stretches without losing it’s shape in the front.
I have been looking for a wide leg trouser to wear casually for a year. Stores finally started carrying them at affordable prices this season so I jumped on it ASAP. This pair is pretty much sold out but I linked them and a few similar pairs in the shop the post above.
Spring is here! Outside is opening back up (PRAISE HIM!!) We and our wardrobes need to be ready for any and all shenanigans that come our way. I don’t know about you but even as a self proclaimed sweatsuit connoisseur if I have to look at or wear another sweat anything I’ll cry. I need proper clothes for my proper shenanigans.
This season I’m all about sets and dresses and Abercrombie is really coming through with the looks. I’ve partnered with Abercrombie & Fitch to share a few of their new sets and dresses for Spring so you can get your wardrobe ready.
Check those out below!

I’ll be sharing these looks in the Spring Styling Series on both TikTok and Instagram Reels, look out for those for a closer look at how I put each look together.
Both pieces in this set are a lightweight twill, perfect for warmer weather. This top does have an elastic back so it’s able to stretch to fit your bust while still being form fitting.
Good: I’ve been looking for this style pants for a year, now that they’re officially trending I was able to get my hands on them.
Bad news: They’re already sold out. There is a shorts version but sizes are piecy.
Sizing: I did find they run small. I sized up one to a Large and got them in short length because that’s all they had left. Luckily, they’re the perfect length for my short legs.
Denim dresses in every cut are everything and everywhere this season. I have 5 in my current Spring wardrobe and they all serve their purpose. This style is very classic, it’s something you could wear to work (if denim is allowed), out for happy hour or even girls night.
This set screams vacation, outdoor event or festival. It’s so soft and cozy too. I plan to restyle this skirt with a basic tank, bandeau or crop long sleeve tee to give it a sleeker look. The skirt would look great as a swim cover-up on vacation too. There’s options is what I’m saying.
My favorite go-to way to accessorize my Spring and Summer looks is with jewelry. It’s too hot for layering clothes, at least in the South so I layer lots of gold jewelry instead. It just adds a glow, a little glam and gives vacay vibes.
You’ve probably noticed some new jewelry in my Spring Collection, it’s from Victoria Emerson and just adds that punch a statement piece provides.
I love my Victoria Emerson pieces, because they’re real gold plated they don’t turn colors. While I never recommend wearing your jewelry in the water I have not taken my bracelet off since the day I put it on a few weeks ago and it still looks new!
If you’re looking to sass up your jewelry collection Victoria Emerson is having a huge sale this weekend with styles on sale as low as $9.97!
