Recent purchases & New Ideas

Hi everyone! For today's post I just wanted to give you guys a sneak peek or my latest purchases, as well as brainstorm some new blog post ideas. I'll begin with what I just ordered:

Gap Ruffle Wrap Dress in "Very Berry"

Alloy Natalia Knit Scoop-back Dress, striped navy

Many of you have probably already seen the Gap wrap dress on Jean here. I absolutely loved the way it fit on her, and the price was just right, so I had to try it out for myself! I've never worn wrap dresses before because I was afraid of the fit, but I need some variety in my work wardrobe! :)

And once again fueling my obsession for all things nautical, I ordered this knit dress from Alloy. I've been looking for a classic cut striped dress for a while now, so I'm hoping this will make the cut. I can see it with a red or yellow belt and brown wedges or sandals...

I'm impatiently waiting for these to arrive in the mail so I can show you guys the fit!

Moving on, I wanted to bring up some new blog post ideas I had, to add more variety and flair to Long Live Classy. I was thinking: regular posts of classy work/casual outfits under $100 (or even under $50) for those of us young people on a budget, "get the look for less" posts, and more posts on "how to wear" certain pieces multiple ways. Although I have been incredibly busy, I want to commit more time to Long Live Classy and bring you all more interesting content.

Let me know what you think! Blog post suggestions are welcome. :)
Enjoy the rest of the week everyone, and thank you so much for reading! I wouldn't be here without you!

  2. I like both your ideas: "the look for less" and "how to wear it." I think one of my challenges is wearing a piece with the same things over and over and not mixing it up enough. Any inspiration in that area would be great!

  3. I really like the striped dress! I've been looking for something exactly like that and now I've found it! Also, I'd love more posts in general...
    And also, I know you're not in school, but could you do some things that aren't work related as well? I'm not saying no work outfits at all, but I like it when you have ones just for everyday life.

    Oh yes, I will definitely add more casual outfit posts! I'm "supercharging" Long Live Classy, so there will be more content. :) Thanks for you suggestions, and I hope you like the striped dress! :)

  5. Love your blog posts ideas. Under $100 and $50 outfits are great even for us non-students!!!! Can't wait to see those dresses on you. Did you see Jean post a new one about altering that wrap dress?
