At Home Date Night

Date nights have been looking a little different lately. I look forward to the day we can enjoy dinner out and a movie at the theater, but have been enjoying getting creative at home. Today I am sharing a few of my favorite at home date ideas along with some cute spring fashion picks from Walmart, because it’s a date night at home, doesn’t mean we shouldn’t look cute!

Denim Jacket (also love this one!) // Tie Dye Dress // Sandals

My husband and I have been spending A LOT of time together. We are both now working from home and have separate work spaces. We see each other all day, but that doesn’t necessarily mean we are spending quality time together. Our schedules are now packed with virtual meetings and long to do lists, meaning we don’t always eat lunch at the say time or even “get off work” simultaneously.

It’s been really important for us to maintain our weekly date nights. We make sure to be intentional about carving out time weekly to put down our phones, stop talking about work and enjoy date night. We’ve found ways to get creative during the stay at home order and I’m sharing my 5 favorite at home date nights below!

  • Go on a walk – these have been one of our nightly rituals. It’s a great way to get out of the house for a bit and connect if you’ve been working from home in separate areas of the house all day!
  • Make dinner together – find a recipe you’ve both wanted to make and get cookin! Bonus points if you make it a 3 course meal AND dress up!
  • Game night – pull out one of your favorite games and play a round, or get competitive with a multi-game marathon. We’ve enjoyed playing Uno and Mario Cart!
  • Go on a car picnic – pack a picnic lunch or dinner and go for a drive. Find somewhere to park and eat out of the back of your trunk. You can even invite another couple and practice social distancing by parking across from one another!
  • Go on a drive and grab some takeout – take the scenic route to your favorite restaurant. Bring home your take out and enjoy outside or by candlelight!

This week, we went on a drive and grabbed takeout. It was wonderful to get out for a bit, even if it was just for a car ride! After living in loungewear, I decided to dress up a bit. I opted for something cute, but comfy, which has been my MO lately!

Earlier this month, I ordered some of the cutest new spring items from Walmart! From season to season, Walmart has been one of the first places I look for freshening up my wardrobe! They carry everything from staples to on trend pieces with prices that don’t break the bank! I love that I can score budget friendly options without sacrificing style! I found tons of great pieces that I can wear around the house and out and about later this season!

This slip dress has been one of my favorites and is perfect for at home date night! Comfy and flattering, I love that it feels like I’m wearing pjs, but doesn’t look it! I threw a denim jacket over the top for our car ride and to layer up a bit as we enjoyed our takeout outside. These sandals have been my favorite since last year and I was so excited to see they were restocked! I ended up ordering them in 2 more colors because of how much I wore these last year. They are comfortable and a great neutral sandal that goes with everything! Lately they have been my favorites for running to the mailbox, but last year I wore them EVERYWHERE, from vacation to the classroom!

Check out some of my spring style picks from Walmart below. I found some great options for your at home date night! Have you had your own at home date? I would love to hear!

Summer Date Ready

Midi Dress // Denim Jacket (size up for an oversized fit) // Sneakers // Crossbody Bag

This is the first year that my husband and I both have the summer off, and we are enjoying every minute of it. Dates are made that much better as we can leave on a whim and go from running errands to a patio dinner on the lake. I know it won’t always be like this, so I am savoring every minute of this special summer.

Because date nights (and day dates!!) have been happening frequently and on a whim, I have been looking for comfy cute dresses that are adaptable. This time of year, I also look for pieces that can transition into the next season and have been finding ALL the right options at Walmart!

The past few seasons, I have been perusing the Walmart site and finding the cutest options to update my wardrobe, whether it be for date night or the classroom. I love that I can find clothing I feel good in, is flattering, and doesn’t break the bank! Walmart’s newest campaign, We Dress America, aligns with those same sentiments, offering clothing this is on trend, unique, inclusive and affordable.

This midi dress came home with me the moment I saw it. This dress isn’t just comfy, it’s also super flattering and makes me feel like a million bucks with a very budget friendly price tag! This versatile piece can be dressed up or down, and has quickly become one of my go to’s! I love that I can pair it with sneakers and a denim jacket and am ready for whatever our day may hold! This dress can also be worn from season to season. Top it off with a sweater and some booties and you are ready for fall!

Walmart Finds Under $35

Last week I shared a try on via stories with finds from Walmart under $35. I’m OBSESSED with the pieces I picked up and thought it was only appropriate that I shared them here too! I found so many great closet staples at prices that won’t break the bank! In fact, you can snag ALL the pieces I’m sharing today for a whopping $14o! Check out my faves below!

Tee // Jeans // Heeled Sandals

White Tee (Size: Medium // Price: $6): This white tee is only $6 and the quality is so good! It definitely reminds me of one of my basic white tee’s that was 4 times the price! I ended up sizing up so I could easily knot it and because I like the oversized fit!

Skinny Jeans (Size: 2 // Price: $17 ): Say hello to the MOST flattering jeans under $20…and yes, I said $20! I was so pleasantly surprised with the fit of this pair! From the dark wash to the higher waist and the minimal distressing, this denim reminds me of one of my favorite designer pairs.

Heeled Sandals (Size: 7 – tts // Price: $32 ): I was so excited about this heeled sandal find. I had been wanting a similar pair, but hadn’t wanted to fork over the large hunk of cash for them. These hit the sweet spot at just $32 and they are SO GOOD! They come in 4 different colors, have the perfect heel height and are comfortable enough to withstand a day on your feet in a classroom!

Polka Dot Crop Top // Jeans // Heeled Sandals 

Polka Dot Crop Top (Size: Small // Price: $13 ): I shared a similar top a few months ago and it sold out so fast! I was excited to find this option that was half the price! This little top is slightly cropped and looks so cute with high waisted bottoms. It can be worn on or off the shoulders and also comes in a pretty shade of grey!

Mini Dress // Heeled Sandals

Mini Dress (Size: Small // Price: $8): This is summer’s perfect LBD! This cutie can be dressed up or down and looks like it was double the price. In reality, this mini is only $8! Hands down my favorite find!

Off the Shoulder Dress // Sandals 

Off the Shoulder Dress (Size: Small // Price: $13.50): I picked up this sweet midi dress because I thought it would be the perfect swimsuit cover up! Its light-weight and flowy and can be worn on or off the shoulders. This is a comfy piece that would be great for your next vacay! Note: It is slightly see-thru, but nothing some nude undergarments can’t fix!

Sandals (Size: 7 – tts // Price: $28): If you buy ONE thing from Walmart, let it be these $28 sandals. I had an almost identical pair in my cart for $100 when I saw these and I am so glad I went with them! They are so well made and so comfortable! The perfect summer sandal!

Swing Dress // Chambray // Sandals

Swing Dress (Size: Small // Price: $10): This little swing dress is SO comfortable! It’s one of those pieces that you can throw on and go. It can be dressed up or down and is something I will wear to the classroom. Plus, it has pockets!

Top // Bottoms 

PJ Set (Size: Small (both top and bottoms) // Price: Top $5 – Bottoms $6): I wore this comfy pj set in the black at the RewardStyle Conference and loved it so much I snagged it in a few more colors. I can’t even tell you how soft this pj set is! And to make things even better, both pieces are currently on sale, making this set a total of $11!!

Spring Wardrobe Refresh with Walmart

Look 1: Dress (Also comes in red) // Heeled Sandals

Look 2: Dress // Chambray Top // Sneakers

Look 3: Tee // Striped Pants // Sandals

Spring is in full swing and I’ve officially swapped out my winter gear for spring pieces! Just like with any new season, I was excited to add some new staples into my spring and summer clothing rotation. I was on the hunt for some comfy but cute pieces that I could easily transition from the classroom to the weekend and I hit the jackpot at Walmart!

Walmart has seriously stepped up their fashion game and recently has become one of my go to’s. I love that I can find clothing I feel good in, is flattering and doesn’t break the bank! Walmart’s newest campaign, We Dress America, speaks to those same sentiments, offering clothing that is unique, on trend, affordable and inclusive.

 As I mentioned, I found SO many goodies when shopping the Walmart site! From dresses to sandals, I picked up some great pieces to refresh my wardrobe for spring!

This little dress was one of my favorite finds, as it reminds me of a much pricier option. I paired it with the most comfortable and cute heeled sandals that will go with everything! The ultimate little swing dress is another comfy and cute spring option. What I love about this piece is that it is PERFECT for the classroom and is so easy to dress up or down. It’s a great little weekend dress when paired with some sneakers! A basic white tee and pants combo is another great option for work or the weekend. I can’t wait to to take these pants on vacay. They will be perfect for a beach getaway!
