Antonio Melani’s is Killing It for Spring

Apr 16, 2015

Searching for some new fashions for spring?  The Antonio Melani brand from Dillard’s has several can’t miss styles for spring.

Their selection of suiting is some of the best in the middle price point.  I purchased this fitted Grace suit, and I’m pretty happy with it.  It required some tailoring, but that’s to be expected.  Their Misty suit comes in a lovely blue color that is a nice alternative to navy.  And the sleek cut of their Penelope suit would work on many figures.

But for my money, the brand’s dresses can’t be beat.  Here are a few of my favorites.

Loreen Cutout Dress ($179)

Alma Dress ($169)

Belinda Eyelet Dress ($169)

My favorite thing about this dress is that you can dress it up or down depending on the shoes.  Add a flat sandal, and it’s casual.  Pick a round-toe pump and a cardigan, and it’s work appropriate.

    I LOVE Antonio Melani. I actually just scored a lavender lace sheath dress at TJ Maxx and was so excited- perfect for spring and summer events. You can’t go wrong with anything from this line. It’s always classic, timeless, and well made.

      Wait, you found an Antonio Melani dress at TJ Maxx? Are you sure it’s not a similar sounding brand? I’ve shopped at Dillard’s my whole life and I’d be stunned to hear they were selling overruns from their flagship line to TJ Maxx. (And I love TJ Maxx!) Where was this TJ Maxx that you found it?

    The Belinda dress is a repliKate of a dress the duchess wore in Australia last year. Years ago, they did a fabulous repliKate of her blue engagement dress, too.

    I bought this dress and a matching blazer and love it! It’s so rare to find suits with dresses. The color is darker than it looks in the picture.

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.
