I am continuing on with my new pieces under $100 with this dress and these sneakers!!! I got this dress from Nordstrom recently ($44) and may have to snag another in a different color because it is SO soft and comfy it basically doubles as pajamas. I have a few dresses I throw on when I know I want to be comfy around the house while still being productive. I like when I can leave the house spontaneously without having to “go get ready” and this is definitely one of those comfy dresses in the line up. Nordstrom has it in a ton of colors, here. And also a really cute floral print, here.
I have been wearing this style of Adidas a ton for the last year and a half or so.. I always wear my white ones with the black stripe. They are the perfect shoe to travel with or walk around the city in because they go with everything and are so comfy! Really though, they look good with so many things. So I got these gold ones and I think I said to David as we were walking, “I love my new shoes.” 10 times. Really I love them!!!! I got these for me and a pair of the classic Adidas for David from Nordstrom. Our delivery man jokes with me because he says I get more Nordstrom boxes than anyone he knows… haha! I love that place.
David and I went to Chelsea Market and the Highline and got my favorite sandwich (Num Pang’s Ginger Brisket Sandwich!!) and walked and talked. It was great.

*Thanks to Nordstrom for sponsoring this post
I LOVE your dress!! So much. I’m sad I can’t find the blue color anywhere online. 🙁
You truly have the best style. xx
I’ve been wanting those gold Adidas ever since I saw them on you! They’re all sold out in my size on the Nordstrom link you have. Do you know if any other stores sell them?
Going through your blog and I’m literally obsessed with all your ripped jeans, different Adidas/amazing taste in shoes and this Prada bag (to die for!!!!) I don’t really read blogs, but yours is so so well put together
I love how you show variations in your posts from your family, family outings, traveling to fashion and hairstyles! Seriously the best. Thank you so much for this post, I ordered this dress right after you posted it before the Antler color sold out so major props! I tend to pick up more affordable clothes/accessories that you style but I also really love how you show off your fashion sense. I love saving up to splurge on some things you posted whether its clothes, accessories or destinations to travel (your Bora Bora posts & vlog last year helped motivate me to save for my honeymoon!)
Thanks Amber & David for sharing all you do!
I am obsessed with these sunglasses! Every outfit you pair them with looks so so good!!
You are absolutely stunning. I wish I had your hair!
I love that dress and your Adidas shoes! That dress is perfect for the changing weather!
You always look so beautiful girl! How do you do it?! <3

Hey Amber, I’m absolutely obsessed with your blog. I purchased the Laced Hair extensions and love them!! Can you do a tutorial of how to clip in the extensions with some of your braided hairstyles so that they don’t show? I’ve tried, but I just can’t figure it out!
Seeing Chelsea Market makes me so sad because I love it so much! Next time you’re there you HAVE to get the pork taco from Los Tacos No. 1 if you haven’t already. That taco seriously changed my life!
Amber- I know exactly what you mean about wearing comfy house dresses that are cute enough to run errands in! Your blog has inspired me to start my own (OnMeadowLane.com)… I learn so much from you- from braided hairstyles to kidney bean, green bean, corn, chickpea, champagne dressing salad (so yummy, thank you for that one!).. You simply rock, mamacita! Much love, xx.
You are the best woman!!!! Love you and your cute family!! Plz do everyday vlogs too and more hair tutorials please ????
I wish I looked just as good in braids! Your posts are always so inspiring, Amber!

Hello, Amber….) how often do you go to the gym or do some exercises at home? What do you eat to be fit?
I love the more affordable clothing idea! (I’m a fashion-loving teacher, so that can be a struggle haha) I was wondering if you could put together some Fall wedding looks? My boyfriend and I have four weddings this fall. Most of which are by the beach and going to be more relaxed, but I’d still like to look well put together. Please please help! 😀
Love the dress and how affordable it is. You are looks so cute!!!

I wanted to know what the fit if like for your adidas? do you have to go down a few sizes?
Amber,
I’m interested in starting a blog in the future. Do you have any advice for me? It would be so helpful! Thanks
Can you make a blog post about your NYC bucket list??
I love this whole look! From the double braids to the sneakers…loving the photos too they have such a gorgeous quality <3

Love it, what do you mean by sponsored by Nordstrom??
thank you for the lower price point items!!!!! great look 🙂
Of course!! Thanks for reading 🙂
I just started following your blog. You have an adorable little family! I’m in my late 30’s and don’t know what every acronym means, so I looked up the definition of HAM! I’m really shocked a fellow christian would use that phrase to describe her precious little baby (or at all) being excited about ice cream! I hope I’m wrong about your choice of words and if I am, I sincerely apologize. God Bless..
Hey Amber! This post is so cute. I love the color/style of your dress! And with those shoessss = perfection. Hey I was wondering… could you maybe post something (snapchat, insta, wherever) on how you store all the millions of glorious photos you take? Where do you find the space? Do you store in the cloud? Anyway, only if you want to share the info. Thank you! Keep on with the cuteness 🙂

You are so adorable!! I check you blog everyday!! I was wondering what are YOUR favorite blogs to look at in your free time?
I love dresses that are cute and comfy and can be dressed up or down. I am so into the dress and sneaker look, its just soo comfy and you still look cute and put together. Will have to snag one of those dresses!

Oh and one other thing I must say is the fact that I love how you interact with your readers!! Your blog is so huge, yet still you find the time to comment back, actually do something with the (positive) feedback people are giving and just talk with your readers. It is truly an unique thing in bloggerland if you ask me! How many times don’t you see other bloggers don’t even bother to comment back anymore once their blog is bigger…? I love that you don’t do that, so keep up the good work!
And you really take the time to post a decent story with your pictures other than ‘Day at the Highline’. These are really the reasons your blog is my no 1 favorite!
Hah love that part about the delivery guy! I’m always wondering what mine is thinking, probably something like; what the heck is this woman ordering ALL the time?! Lol
Love this outfit, dresses like these are a definite musthave!
Those shoes!! ? I love them in white and gold!! I love Nordstrom too!! They have the best quality clothes ever!! I love dressing comfy!! So thank you for sharing a cute outfit that’s comfy!!
Super cute look, the kind that says “hey I am gorgeous and don’t even try”!!
This outfit is so cute! And you’re so pretty! I will be in NY this Saturday with friends and would love to meet you!!! We’re all military, exploring & adventuring anywhere we can 🙂
Hi Amber! My name is Grace and I just wanted to tell you how much I love what you do on social media. Your blog posts are always so cute and your YouTube videos are always so helpful and my favorite of all are your snapchats! I think it is so funny to hear what you and David have to say everyday and I love when you just sit down and talk to us in your snapchat stories about a product or where you got something. In last night’s story you were talking about all the hate comments you got on your bookshelf lol and I thought I’d leave a positive comment to make your day a little better considering you are always making me laugh or jealous of all your cute clothes and your cute family everyday in mine. xoxo – Grace Gudenkauf, Love you so much
Hi❤️ Just saw your snap- good for you!????
To all the negative commenters- don’t hate, appreciate!
Amber,
Love the post and dress! But sadly after seeing $29 shipping to Australia going to have to pass on this one 🙁 But I personally love posts where you mix “high” and “low” price point pieces! Keep the great posts coming.

I would love to know if this dress is nursing-friendly. Looks like there’s a chance it could be if the material is stretchy enough to pop out a boob… And would love to know your favorite non-nursing tops and dresses in general. I have a couple with a semi-low/stretchy neckline that work great but I could always use more!
I have been interested in starting a blog. I was wondering what you did to get started and your story?
SO SO SO CUTE! I love that you’re going to start doing more price-friendly pieces 😉 and this dress is definitely in my shopping cart! Adorable on you with braids + sneakers!

love the outfit! and this dress is just my taste – like u said super comfy and still super cute! i noticed (or maybe it just seemed to me) that you are playing with your braids on some pictures – it made me smile, ’cause i always do the same when i have braids… 😉

Amber! I saw on your snapchat yesterday that people leave you mean comments. I think that’s terrible! I love following you and David! Keep doing what you’re doing!!!
You look very happy and beautiful in that dress!

I love this dress! Can you wear it with the cross-stitch in front and back? I see it with it in the back on the Nordies website, but I feel like you wear it so well in the front! Adorbs! As always, you’re totally effortlessly gorg!

So cute! I’ve been looking for a pair of comfy shoes to wear when we travel & walk everywhere that don’t look like gym sneakers – love these superstar ones! Pinned! xoxo Christine
You rock those sneakers!! Love this post ?
You weren’t joking when you said that dress comes in a ton of colors! I can’t decide which to get. lol

Hey Amber, this may be a dumb question, but what does it mean when someone sponsored this post?? Like how Nordstrom sponsored this post!
Thanks xx
It basically means they paid me to wear their clothes or talk about their company! We are always allowed to pick out whatever we like best, we are never required to wear a certain piece, we always choose! We also can share honest opinions in any way we want, so all thoughts are my own just like any other post! We only do sponsorships with companies where we use them every day, like Nordstrom!
Braids are on point! Love this look <3

Just wondering if I can be you???? Xoxo
I love this look! I’m currently obsessed with the black and white adidas superstar. I’ve heard they run big, did you size a half size or whole size down?
xoxo Morgan
I’d like to start by saying- I LOVE your blog and have been following you for years now. I wanted to inquire about styling your hair with extensions. Do you still wear them or is your hair naturally that long? I have very thin hair that doesn’t grow well due to being blonde and the damage it causes. Therefore, if I want long hair, I have to use extensions. However, when I have extensions in I feel limited on how I can style it (especially with braids) because I feel like you can see them. Do you have any tips or tricks you could recommend? Thanks so much!
Love that dress, it looks so cute and comfy! You always find the best stuff! Great pictures also! What kind of camera are you using? Thanks! Absolutely adore your blog and your family.
I think it’s great that you’re trying to provide more $40-100 options for people who are requesting it. I personally like to see a mix of the luxe and the affordable. I like knowing about things I may want to invest in but not feeling like I can only achieve a certain look that I like by buying something really expensive. In general though, I believe in long-term wardrobe thinking 🙂

Can you please do a hair tutorial for these braids. So cute! Also I am a new blogger and was wondering how you started getting brands to work with you? Did you email them separately or use a affiliated website to contact brands?? Very curious! I admire the platform you have built.

Can you snap facial products of your skin care routine of like what products you use? Not really sure what products are good or not. I’m in my early twenties so I really want to start taking care of my skin and I know a lot of skin care products from the drugstore are a waste of money. P.S. Thanks for always being honest an out what products are worth investing in and encouraging all to follow our dreams! Thanks! :))
Hi! I love that dress! What size are you wearing? I am usually a small but sometimes the length is too short so I vary between a small and mediaum. Love the post!

Love that you are including pieces under $100! And the dress is so cute! With your Adidas, how do you prevent creasing near the toe area? I have a pair like this but with the black stripes and love them, but they’re starting to get creases. Any advice? Thanks Amber!!
Braid perfection!! I love how effortless this look is!
