    What to wear on Easter Sunday (+ for Easter Egg Hunts & Brunch)

    I love Easter – especially Easter Sunday. We always go to church and usually have a few Easter egg hunts with the boys in the weeks leading up to Easter Sunday. While your outfit certainly isn’t the main event on Easter, I think it’s special to get a new dress each year. I remember it was always a big deal picking out my Easter dress as a little girl, and I still look forward to it, even at age 41! So, I’ve sourced some beautiful options below that will work for Easter and beyond in the spring and summer months. And if you’re heading to an Easter church service for the first time in a long time (or ever), I’ve got you covered in terms of what to wear, what to avoid, and a few of my favorite picks.

    What to wear on Easter Sunday (and for Easter Egg Hunts & Easter Brunch)

    What do people wear at Easter?

    In general, people tend to dress up for Easter and embrace spring style, even if it’s still a little chilly out. You’ll see a lot of floral dresses, pastel tones, or white outfits. Dresses with ruffles, lace, or soft pleats are popular choices. And layering lightweight jackets like a tweed jacket or a tailored blazer can be helpful if the weather is a bit chilly. If you prefer separates, a blouse paired with a flowy skirt or white jeans can make for a chic and effortless Easter outfit.

    What Not to Wear on Easter Sunday

    While we’ll be talking about what to wear this Easter, there are, however, a few things to avoid. Dark, heavy fabrics can feel out of place, and overly revealing outfits aren’t appropriate for more formal gatherings or church services. And they also don’t lend themselves very naturally to spring weather anyway. Also, while sneakers can be a comfortable option for egg hunts or casual brunches, avoid overly worn or athletic sneakers. It’s always better to be overdressed than underdressed when it comes to Easter.

    How Should I Dress for Easter?

    Your Easter outfit should reflect your style while keeping reverence, comfort, and occasion in mind. If you’re attending a formal church service, opt for a knee-length or midi dress with classic detailing like lace or ruffles. A flowy maxi dress or a chic skirt with a tucked-in blouse will work perfectly for a casual Easter brunch or an outdoor gathering.

    What Color Should I Wear on Easter Sunday?

    When deciding what to wear Easter Sunday, pastel shades such as soft pink, lavender, mint green, and baby blue are traditional Easter colors. White and cream tones also work beautifully, especially with delicate lace details. Floral prints in soft hues are a timeless Easter favorite. If you prefer bolder colors, opt for cheerful tones like coral or yellow.

    Can you wear white on Easter?

    Yes, absolutely. Easter is actually one of the best times to wear white. It feels fresh, celebratory (as it should be), and in line with the bright colors of spring. Whether it’s a white dress, a white blouse, or even white accessories, it’s a classic choice for Easter Sunday.

    What to Wear for Easter Church Services

    For church services on Easter, opt for a modest and conservative outfit, keeping in mind that different churches have various dress codes. (Read more tips about what to wear to church in this post.) If you aren’t sure, a knee-length or midi dress in a pastel shade or a floral print is a safe bet. I love this Smocked Seaton Midi Dress and this Woven Floral Print Maxi as two cute dress options.

    A blazer or a cardigan can provide a polished finish, especially in cooler weather – this Blush Braided Trim Jacket screams Easter in such a cute pink (you can find the best jackets to wear with your dresses here).

    White pants paired with a sophisticated blouse also make a chic alternative for Easter church outfits – here’s a blog post with my favorite white jeans for spring. Choose closed-toe shoes like ballet flats or low heels for a more refined appearance, or wear a flattering pair of sandals. Showing your toes is fine; you just want to be sure your shoes are classy. This pair of Steve Madden block heels is a great, tasteful option.

    I also love these Loeffler Randall Mid-Heel Sandals, and I talk about the best dupe for these sandals (and other Loeffler Randall shoes) in this post!

    What to Wear for Easter Brunch

    Easter brunch is the perfect occasion to wear something stylish yet comfortable. A flowy midi dress with ruffle detailing (maybe the Smocked Seaton Midi from Tuckernuck I linked above) or a wrap-style dress in a cheerful print is always a great choice. Layering with a lightweight cardigan (here’s how to style cardigans) or a cropped blazer adds a touch of sophistication. If you prefer separates, a chic blouse tucked into a skirt or high-waisted white pants creates an effortlessly elegant look. Pair with espadrilles or block heels like these for a brunch-ready outfit.

    While I like to wear dresses for church services, I’ll likely wear something like this blazer and denim look for a casual brunch with our family after church. I’d likely do white jeans like these rather than blue (see my favorite white jeans here), but either will work. The pink blazer I’m wearing isn’t carried anymore, but this Blush Braided Trim Jacket might take the cake anyway. These jeans are from Quince – the fit is PERFECT.

    Easter Dresses

    While I’ve shared a few of my favorite dresses in the paragraphs above, I wanted to include a few more for those who are shopping. Here are some general ideas if you want to look in your closet, and I’ll include my personal favorites below. If you’re going to be outside a good portion of the day, don’t be afraid of pairing sneakers with a dress. Don’t forget a sunhat, non-toxic sunscreen, or sunglasses if you’ll be outdoors. My favorite affordable sunglasses are this tortoise pair from Amazon.

    Tuckernuck Chloe Dress

    I have this Chloe Dress in a perfect lavender color, and it’s the ideal Easter dress. I feel like Jackie O whenever I put it on and get so many compliments. It has a polished silhouette, the perfect thick material, and a great midi length (I wear a small for sizing reference). If you want the same look for less, this Amazon Tuckernuck look for less is perfect.

    Dillard’s Woven Floral Print Tiered A-Line Flounce Maxi Dress

    This Floral A-Line Maxi is currently at the top of my list for Easter dresses. The length is my favorite (maxi), and the color combo of blue, green, pink, and yellow is so pleasant together, especially as we get further into spring.

    Pale Pink Jacquard Janie Mini Dress

    Everything about the Pink Jacquard Janie Mini is perfect for Easter. I love the puff sleeves, vibrant florals, mini length, and the classic neckline. You could opt for kitten heels or sandals to pair with this dress.

    Hyacinth House Blue and White Midi Hillsborough Dress

    The Blue and White Midi Hillsborough Dress is so elegant. The soft blue-and-white palette feels so fresh and classy for spring. It’s feminine, not fussy, timeless, and also an ideal dress if you plan to take family photos. Add a simple sandal or a block heel and a woven bag.

    Tuckernuck Lyles Dress

    I own this Lyles dress in red (I got it for fall family photos), and the fit is perfect for everything. The material isn’t super thick, but it’s also not thin. Maxi dresses can swallow my petite frame, but this fits perfectly. I went with an XS since I knew the fit was relaxed. I recommend sizing down if you’re on the fence. Since the belt is removable, it works for maternity as well.

    Tweed Jackie Dress

    I love this Tweed Jackie Dress for Easter. It’s polished, and it comes in a ton of colors. I love the braided trim and button details! It’d be perfect with kitten heels or ballet flats.

    Hill House Home Ellie Nap Dress

    There’s no dress on earth that fits as perfectly in every life stage as Hill House. I got my first Hill House dress when I was postpartum with Charles, and it was one of the first things I put on that made me feel like myself. The smocking is secure and flattering, the midi length is easy to wear around kids, and it comes in ton of colors, and I’ve got my eye on the powder blue Lace Nap Dress this year. Hill House runs true to size. Quince also makes a look for less that’s really good. Read my Hill House dress review here.

    Tuckernuck Crochet Belclaire Dress

    The Light Blue Crochet Belclaire Dress from Tuckernuck is another sweet and feminine mini. I can’t stand how cute the floral crochet is, and the green colorway is just as lovely. I appreciate that this dress can transition really well from brunch to an Easter Egg hunt since it’s comfortable and long enough!

    Casual Easter Outfits

    Not a fan of dresses? No problem! There are plenty of casual Easter outfit ideas that are just as stylish:

    • White Jeans + Pastel Blouse – A classic, polished look that’s perfect for brunch or an egg hunt.
    • Skirt + Lightweight Sweater – A flowy midi skirt paired with a soft knit sweater is effortlessly chic.
    • Jumpsuit + Denim Jacket – A stylish alternative to dresses, especially in a floral or pastel print.
    • Casual Dress + Sneakers – Keep it relaxed with a breezy dress and comfy sneakers for a laid-back Easter vibe.
    Blue Peony Embroidered Minny Romper

    This Blue Peony Embroidered Romper would be the cutest option for a children’s Easter egg hunt. I love a romper for practicality, and this embroidered option is polished and so classic. I’d style it with cute sneakers like these Momentum sneakers from Steve Madden.

    Cowrie Block Print Keating Top and Pant Set

    Similar to the romper, but two separate pieces. Try the Cowrie Block Print Top here and the matching Ashford Pants here. You could definitely wear this to church, but it would also be cute for egg hunts and brunch. I’d stick to a pair of ballet flats if you’re going to be on your feet a good amount of the day.

    Floral Embroidered Scalloped Maxi Skirt

    I love wearing skirts. They are ideal, especially if you’re nursing. This Floral Embroidered Scalloped Maxi Skirt feels like spring and would be cute with any white blouse or a simple white tee – here are the best ones. Perfect for church, brunch, or an Easter egg hunt.

    Madewell Kick Out Crop Jeans

    I mentioned these earlier in the post, but Levi’s Ribcage Straight Jeans are some of the most flattering white jeans I’ve found (and I tried 15 pairs). They also happen to be the most affordable denim I found in my search for the best pair. They fit true-to-size.

    Lilac Floral Rosenberg Blouse

    This Lilac Floral Rosenberg Blouse introduces a lovely purple colorway to the mix. If you’re not planning to wear a dress for Easter, you might want to consider investing in a special top that you can wear for years to come. This top is still under $100!

  • Sleeping bag!

  • From Bass Line to Bottom Line

    Written by Jesse Scott  |  Photography by Eduardo Schneider

    On any given weekend, Anna de Ferran might be spinning inside a Formula One paddock in Miami, soundtracking a luxury hotel takeover in London, or leading a branded activation for one of the world’s most recognizable companies.  

    “I feel like I live mostly on an airplane,” she says, “but Fort Lauderdale is my home base.”

    The daughter of two-time Indy Car champion and 2003 Indianapolis 500 winner Gil de Ferran, Anna’s family moved from London to South Florida when she was two. Her father’s career on international racing circuits made constant travel a fact of life long before her own work began taking her around the world.

    After returning to England for school in her teens, she came back stateside to attend the University of Miami. Today, she credits the region’s international reach and access to two major airports as more than convenience. It is infrastructure.

    “I’m literally equidistant between London and São Paulo,” she says with a laugh. “There aren’t many places you can say that.”

    Before she became a founder, Anna made her name in electronic music under the moniker ADF, landing major club bookings and international broadcasts. She understands the adrenaline of a packed dance floor, the rhythm of a set building toward its drop. But her most consequential move did not happen in a booth. It happened on a whiteboard.

    “I’ll always be a performer at heart,” she says. “But I realized at one point that my impact could be bigger than just me on stage.”

    That realization became L’Amigas Collective, an all-female DJ agency now active across Miami, London, New York, Brazil, and the Middle East. What began as a community for women navigating the male-dominated world of electronic music has evolved into a global platform representing nearly 40 DJs.

    Anna describes L’Amigas as sitting “at the intersection of corporate and creative.” 

    It is a deliberate position. While many agencies chase headline nightclub bookings, L’Amigas built its reputation inside brand partnerships and large-scale activations. The network translates artistic energy into language executives understand, and interprets business objectives back to artists with equal fluency.

    “Together we can do more,” she says. “Unfortunately, society has created this scarcity mindset, especially for women. But I truly believe collaboration creates more opportunity.”

    The timing proved prescient. As Gen Z drinking habits shift and traditional nightlife economics fluctuate, more artists are pivoting toward brand partnerships and experiential work. L’Amigas was already there.

    “I transitioned into brand work pretty early in my career,” Anna says. “Nightlife wasn’t good for my health, and I saw an opportunity. Now we haven’t really felt the downturn others are talking about. If anything, we’ve seen an upturn.”

    That upturn is visible in the client list. Formula One is among the collective’s largest partners, a relationship that grew organically as Anna’s own presence within the F1 circuit expanded. At last year’s Miami Grand Prix, L’Amigas placed 10 female DJs across race weekend for brands including Heineken, Mercedes, F1 Academy and Gordon Ramsay. 

    Beyond the track, the collective has worked with hospitality giants such as W Hotels and Hilton, financial institutions including UBS, and lifestyle platforms like Bumble. It is a roster that reads less like a nightlife résumé and more like a corporate power map.

    “It’s actually crazy when I list some of these names,” she says. “I don’t think I could have manifested a better client list.”

    Behind the scenes, the operation runs lean. Megan Fernandez, based in London and one of the roster’s standout DJs, focuses on talent. Taylor Futch, in Miami, oversees marketing and public relations while maintaining her own performance schedule. The structure allows for flexibility without sacrificing cohesion.

    In South Florida, the roster includes Giovanna Elia, daughter of restaurateur Angelo Elia of Casa D’Angelo, underscoring the collective’s growing local visibility. Across the Atlantic, L’Amigas has built a strong London presence, with DJs regularly booked for fashion week events, private members’ clubs, and luxury brand launches. The transatlantic footprint now rivals Miami in both prestige and volume.

    For corporate partners, that cohesion translates into reliability. L’Amigas does not operate on exclusivity; instead, it functions as a brokerage model, pairing artists with brands based on tone, audience, and objective. In a rapidly shifting events landscape, adaptability is currency.

    “We focus less on growing the number of DJs and more on growing the client base,” Anna says. “Our talent comes organically because our reputation does.”

    When she is home, Anna splits her time between select performances and scaling the collective’s global footprint. Expansion into emerging markets is on the horizon, along with deeper brand integration and sustained growth. The ambition is clear, but so is the intention.

    “Florida is a great place to grow from,” she says. “There’s so much convergence here, and it’s easy to connect globally.”

    For a DJ who once measured success in packed clubs and international broadcasts, the metrics have changed. Today, it is about opportunity created, doors opened, and women amplified. The stage is still there. The music still matters. But the mission is bigger than a set list.

    The beat, it turns out, has only been the beginning.

  • Eight Seats, Six Centuries of Craft

    In a city that rarely whispers, YASU Omakase makes its point quietly. Conceived as the most personal expression yet from Michelin-recognized Yasu Tanaka, the eight-seat counter pares dining back to its essence: chef, guest, and the deliberate passage of time.

    Anchored by a 600-year-old hinoki counter—wood traditionally reserved for Japanese temples—the experience feels closer to ceremony than spectacle. Guests begin with a sequence of otsumami before moving through a meticulously paced progression of nigiri, miso soup, a signature hand roll, and seasonal dessert. Fish arrives primarily from Tokyo’s Toyosu Market, balanced with pristine Florida catches, while Niigata rice and house-seasoned soy sauces are adjusted daily for temperature, texture, and salinity.

    The project comes to life in collaboration with Spicy Hospitality Group, whose partner Andre Sakhai shares Tanaka’s reverence for craft-driven design. The room blends Japanese tradition with Nordic restraint, from hand-cut kumiko woodwork to sculptural PP Møbler seating, each element chosen to disappear into the experience rather than compete with it.

    With creative partner Raymond Li, Tanaka introduces subtle South Florida inflections without diluting the formality of omakase. The result is not a replica of Japan, nor a Miami remix, but something rarer: a space where precision, patience, and presence lead the conversation. yasu-miami.com

She is a model, actress, and mom, and the products feel very “real life meets luxury”—effective, easy to use, and designed for busy schedules rather than complicated routines.

    Six pairs come in each box, and honestly, I always wish I had more on hand.

    Last Call Retinol Serum explained over image of healthy skin

    While the eye masks are my personal go-to, my sister is completely obsessed with their Last Call Retinol Serum.

    It combines retinol with niacinamide and omega fatty acids to help improve texture, smooth fine lines, and brighten skin while staying gentle enough for daily use.

    Overachiever Eye Brightener Masks hydrogel under eye patches for brightening and depuffing

    If you struggle with puffiness, dark circles, or fine lines around your eyes, these undereye masks are a game changer.

    What makes them different is the no-slip hydrogel design. They actually stay in place, which means you can wear them while making coffee, answering emails, or getting ready — no lying down required.

    After using them consistently, I’ve noticed:

    • Brighter-looking under eyes
    • Less puffiness in the morning
    • Smoother fine lines
    • A refreshed, awake look without makeup

    Why These Specific Eye Masks Work

    These patches are packed with ingredients that actually support the delicate under-eye area:

    • Vitamin C to brighten
    • Peptides to support firmness
    • Allantoin to calm and soothe

    The combination gives both immediate results and longer-term improvement when used regularly.

    I love that they feel luxe but still practical — small, powerful, and easy to use anytime.

    Made for Real Life (Not Just Spa Days)

    One of my biggest frustrations with eye patches is when they slide down your face. These don’t.

    The hydrogel grips the skin comfortably so you can move around while wearing them. I’ve used them while packing, traveling, and even walking around the house — they stay put.

    Six pairs come in each box, and honestly, I always wish I had more on hand.

    My Sister’s Favorite: Last Call Retinol Serum

    Last Call Retinol Serum explained over image of healthy skin

    While the eye masks are my personal go-to, my sister is completely obsessed with their Last Call Retinol Serum.

    She’s tried a lot of retinol formulas (usually from Target or wherever she is shopping), but this is the one she keeps reordering because it gives results without irritation, which is rare.

    It combines retinol with niacinamide and omega fatty acids to help improve texture, smooth fine lines, and brighten skin while staying gentle enough for daily use.

    If you’ve been nervous about retinol or have sensitive skin, this serum is a great place to start.

    Who These Products Are Best For

    You’ll love these if you:

    • Want brighter, more refreshed-looking eyes
    • Deal with puffiness or dark circles
    • Want a retinol that’s effective but gentle
    • Prefer skincare that fits into a busy lifestyle
    • Love products that actually stay put while you wear them

    OneSkin Discount Code & Honest Review

    Minimalist OneSkin skincare routine with peptide moisturizer by OneSkin and discount code

    If you’ve ever read this blog, then you know I’m always paying attention to emerging science—especially when it comes to longevity, skin health, and what actually moves the needle long term.

    Because here’s the truth: great skin isn’t just about hydration or surface-level glow. It’s about what’s happening at the cellular level, which is what originally drew me to OneSkin skincare. Their approach is less about trends and more about addressing why skin ages in the first place.

    And yes, I’ve got a discount code for us.

    Why I Started Using OneSkin

    I’m always testing new serums, but I’m careful about what earns a permanent spot in my routine.

    OneSkin’s lightweight peptide serum and moisturizer in one quickly became a favorite. It layers beautifully, absorbs fast, and feels like skincare designed for results rather than hype.

    After a few weeks of consistent use, I noticed:

    • Diminished fine lines
    • Smoother texture
    • Skin that feels firmer and more resilient

    It’s not a dramatic overnight change — it’s that steady improvement where your skin just starts looking healthier overall.

    The OneSkin Smooth & Firm Face Moisturizer (My Hero Product)

    If you try one thing from OneSkin, start with the OS-01 Face Moisturizer.

    This product is essentially a serum and lightweight moisturizer in one, powered by the OS-01 Peptide™. I love how streamlined it makes my routine. I use it in the morning after vitamin C and before sunscreen, and it layers perfectly under makeup.

    After a few weeks, I definitely noticed a healthy glow and the lines around my eyes were reduced.

    What I love:

    • Lightweight but hydrating
    • Smooth, elegant texture
    • Works well for face and neck
    • Supports firmness without irritation

    It’s one of those products that makes your skin feel stronger over time instead of just temporarily hydrated.

    What Makes OneSkin Different

    Most anti-aging skincare focuses on surface-level fixes. OneSkin takes a more advanced approach by addressing cellular senescence—a process where aging cells stop functioning properly but don’t go away.

    These dysfunctional cells (often called “zombie cells”) release inflammatory signals that can accelerate aging in surrounding tissue.

    As they build up, they contribute to:

    • Increased inflammation
    • Reduced immune function in skin
    • Faster breakdown of collagen and elasticity

    OneSkin’s research focuses on helping skin behave more like younger skin at the cellular level, which is a completely different philosophy compared to traditional anti-aging products.

    Understanding the Science Behind OneSkin

    As we age, skin goes through what scientists call the hallmarks of aging, including:

    • Cellular senescence
    • Mitochondrial dysfunction
    • Loss of proteostasis
    • Decreased collagen and elastin production
    • Thinning skin and reduced barrier strength

    Environmental stressors like sun exposure, pollution, and stress can accelerate these changes.

    What I appreciate most is that OneSkin’s formulas are built to support long-term skin health, not just to chase temporary results.

    How I Use OneSkin in My Routine

    Morning routine:

    • Vitamin C serum
    • OneSkin Smooth & Firm Face Moisturizer
    • Sunscreen

    That’s it. It keeps my routine simple while still feeling science-forward.

    Who OneSkin Is Best For

    You’ll love OneSkin if you:

    • Care about longevity-focused skincare
    • Want smoother, firmer-looking skin
    • Prefer lightweight formulas
    • Like science-backed ingredients (science nerds LOVE this stuff)
    • Want results without irritation

    It’s especially great if you’re starting to notice fine lines, texture changes, or loss of elasticity.

    OneSkin Scalp Serum for Hair Growth

    Minimalist OneSkin scalp routine with peptide moisturizer

    I also want to mention that OneSkin also offers a scalp serum for hair growth powered by their OS-01 Peptide, designed to help reduce shedding and support a healthier hair growth cycle at the root.

    I haven’t personally tried this one yet, but if I ever needed targeted support for scalp health or thinning hair, this would be the first formula I’d reach for because of the science behind it. The goal isn’t just cosmetic volume; it’s improving the scalp environment to encourage thicker, fuller, denser hair over time.

    Their early research is compelling, including reported improvements in hair density with consistent use, and the formula is dermatologist-tested, fragrance-free, and suitable for sensitive skin. If you’re curious about a longevity-focused approach to hair care, you can check it out here.
