    The Fluted Shift Dress

    February 18, 2016fashion

    target who what wear collection

    The Who What Wear collection is in your local Target store, and so is this flirty shift dress! Started by Katherine Power and Hilary Kerr 10 years ago (time flies when you’re having fun), Who What Wear has evolved to be an online center for style, travel and celebrity news and it’s about time these trailblazers get their own clothing line!

    The pieces in the collection are meant to be remixed for maximum wear, and moving forward, the Who What Wear collection will expand on a monthly basis. Why? Because demand and taste is important, consumer data will drive the future of the collection. Each piece is under $50 so you can bet that we’ll be stocking up on some staples, like this fluted shift dress!

    Jacket: Old Navy

    Dress: Target (Who What Wear)

    Purse: kate spade new york

    Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell via Crossroads Trading Co. (only avail on eBay)

    Lipstick Shade: Russian Red by MAC

    Shift dresses are tricky because if you don’t have the right fit, they can make you look like you’re wearing a tent! The trick is to make sure that it fits you straight up and down, but fitted under the arm, and if it’s not, that is an easy fix with a tailor! A fun print adds enough to the dress if you don’t want to bulk up your look with accessories.

     

    Want to take it up a notch? Give your shift dress a casual cool vibe by adding a denim jacket as an outer layer, and some sass with a fun shoe. These unicorn heels by Jeffrey Campbell are my jam, and you won’t believe how much I found them for: $12 never worn at Crossroads Trading Co. Yet another reason why I love to mix new and recycled fashion together!

    Happy weekend, friends! Wanna know what sandals I’ll be wearing all spring? These right here 👆🏾. They are so comfortable and I got a couple of compliments at the crosswalk! Every person was pleasantly surprised when I told them they were @crocs in collaboration with @verabradley because of the style, but if you didn’t know, there’s a wide variety of sandals from Crocs and these just scream spring. The floral botanical print is quintessential Vera and I’m obsessed. I know I’m rocking the denim today, but I’ll be steppin around town in them and at the pool, with stripes and solids — and with dresses and swimsuits, too. The spring style possibilities are endless. Tell me what you would wear yours with! #VeraBradleyXCrocs
    Y’all, I couldn’t be more excited to share wit Y’all, I couldn’t be more excited to share with you what’s been going on around here lately!

After three rounds in 2020, the doors to Level Up With Kachet have finally re-opened! If you're ready to achieve your big goals, truly build a thriving business, and to finally feel confident about your brand direction, I’m here to guide the way over the course of four months to make sure you do.

Participants will have access to weekly implementation sessions, bi-weekly coaching, guest coaching sessions and more. Unlike before, this program is for four months instead of six weeks. 

It’s truly a mastermind, designed to ensure your long-term success.

Maybe you know what you want for your brand, but you’re feeling overwhelmed and don’t know what to do next to get you there.

Maybe you hate to admit that you need better business habits, but you know that you do and you're ready to build custom processes.

Or maybe you feel deep down that 2021 is your year — and you are ready to do what it takes to make it happen.

Whatever your particular scenario is, I invite you to join us—your time is now! Applications close in 2 weeks and we’ll begin immediately after. 

Want to know more? Click the link in my bio for the info and to apply, and please be sure to DM me with any questions! 

THIS IS OUR YEAR, and I can’t wait to get started! #LevelUpWithKachet #LevelUpShowUp #ThisIsYourYear
    Happy first full week of April, y’all. 😁 Maki Happy first full week of April, y’all. 😁 Making a point to celebrate + take a pause from the scroll is part of my biz processes this year and I didn’t even realize a week passed. I never used to stop, which means that I was going forth with blinders on + getting caught up in comparison, for better and for worse. I have to be honest, even with the absence on Instagram, the business activity didn’t stop!  In fact, here’s what went down in the past five days: 

▪️The Level Up + Show Up Challenge went down via email + Facebook. See ya, IG!
▪️I booked two Strategy Sessions for April.
▪️I put the finishing touches on the new Level Up With Kachet...DOORS OPENING THIS WEEK. Y’all ready?!
▪️My team + I turned a gifted offer from a brand into a paid one with ONE email. My #CoachKach advice: Stop saying yes (or no) off the bat. Open up the conversation to see what can happen.
▪️I beat my Q1 income goal by 25%, which made me adjust my quarterly goals for the rest of the year.

Sometimes you just need a win to get fired up and re-focused.

Sometimes you need to put that scary number out there to see if you can make it happen. 

Knowing that I did when half of the time I was weary, lost + fighting to show up in all areas, it affirms that I am made to do this. It shows me that there is a bigger plan for me, so long as I show up. 

Perfection is not required. Effort is.

That’s the energy I’m taking into April and the rest of the year. I’m going to reach higher. I’m probably going to squirm, sweat and scream while doing so, but I’m here for all the smoke that comes with it.

What are you going to reach higher for? And how can I help? Let’s 👏🏾Get 👏🏾It!
#LevelUpShowUp
    You work hard, lady — schedule a breather this w You work hard, lady — schedule a breather this week and treat yo’self! It doesn’t have to be for the whole day. Heck, five minutes will do the trick. 

I hadn’t taken myself out for a coffee date in a while so I made it happen. But for you, it could be:

▪️A coffee without your phone in hand
▪️A walk around the block
▪️A bubble bath
▪️A call with a loved one. 

This isn’t the first time I’ve said this, and it won’t be the last. Count on that! 😁

Curious about my look? Well, my love for polka dots is coming back! I’m rockin more classics from @appleseeds, including the Dennisport Twill Chinos with this shirt. I plan to wear it with shorts + skirts this spring, too. That’s why I love classic pieces so much. You can remix them in whatever way you feel like depending on the mood.

A classic — and taking a moment to celebrate you — will never go out of style. Click the link in my profile to check out all of my Appleseed’s picks this season, + comment below 👇🏾and tell me what you’re going to do for yourself this week!
