Let’s Bring Back Sunday Best This Easter

Easter is just around the corner, and with it comes the perfect excuse to break out our Sunday best. After all, there’s something so special about Easter—it’s a holiday that calls for pastels, florals, and a little extra fabulousness! Whether you're dressing the whole family in coordinated outfits, planning a stunning solo look, or hosting with a tablescape that feels like something straight out of a dream, this Easter is the time to bring back the joy of getting dressed up.

Growing up in the South, Easter Sunday was always a big deal. As a little girl, there was nothing more exciting than shopping for that new Easter dress. It wasn’t just about the dress; it was the whole experience. The anticipation, the joy of picking out something special, and then getting to wear it to church, feeling like the whole world was seeing your springtime fabulousness—it made Easter even more magical. And now, with Easter right around the corner, it feels like the perfect time to bring that same excitement back.

Easter fashion is having a moment, and this season it’s all about soft pastels and statement pieces that bring the fun. Blush pink, powder blue, pale yellow, and lavender are the colors to beat—totally channeling spring energy. Flowing dresses are still a favorite, but trending details like puff sleeves, ruffles, and tiered skirts are stealing the show. Brands like Elliatt and Celia B are serving up bold floral prints and vibrant colors with a playful twist, while Generation Love nails that polished-but-feminine vibe with structured dresses and delicate accents. And if you’re going glam, Mac Duggal has you covered with romantic silhouettes and head-turning details perfect for Easter brunch or a dressier affair. Top it all off with a wide-brim hat, strappy sandals, or a beaded clutch, and you’re officially spring-ready.

If you’re coordinating outfits with your family this year, how about making it a style moment? Picture it: the whole crew, all dressed in soft pastel tones, walking into church or showing up for Easter brunch looking coordinated and chic. From matching bow ties for the boys to twinning dresses for the girls, this is the perfect time to get a little creative with your family’s look. But let’s be honest, step one is securing the dress YOU love. 

We all know the kids’ Easter clothes are beyond adorable, so you’ll have no trouble finding something precious for them. The priority is finding that special dress that makes you feel like a million bucks! Once you've got your outfit locked in, you can easily coordinate the kiddos and hubs around it. Trust us, it’s worth making sure you love what you're wearing first—it’ll set the tone for everyone else’s look. Monday’s Child is our top pick for all things children's Easter fashion—they’ve got the cutest, most fabulous options to ensure your little ones look just as stunning as you do!

And if you're the one hosting this year, let’s talk about creating a tablescape that will truly take your breath away. There’s nothing quite as magical as sitting down to a big holiday dinner with a stunning tablescape before you. It sets the stage for the whole event, creates the perfect mood for the dinner, and fills everyone with that warm, festive joy. When I’m hosting, my first thought is always flowers! What vases and vessels will I use? What colors, textures, and heights do I want to incorporate? And of course, what blooms are in season that will complement the occasion and the vases I plan to use? 

Flowers can truly elevate your entire table and create an atmosphere that feels as special as the holiday itself. For me, Eries Interiors is always my go-to for one-of-a-kind, special decor pieces. Their selection of tableware and pottery is unlike anything else. I recently picked up a gorgeous decanter that I’ve repurposed as a vase (white wine all day, right?)—it’s a perfect example of how to mix style with functionality. Eries is also my go-to place for housewarming or hostess gifts—every piece feels so unique and thoughtfully curated. If you’re not hosting this Easter, you should stop by Eries for the perfect hostess gift. Trust me, you’ll want to leave with everything.

The sun is shining (*when it’s not April showering), the flowers are blooming, and Easter is just the perfect excuse to embrace the season with a little extra flair. Dressing up isn’t just about the clothes; it’s about celebrating the joy of the holiday, embracing tradition, and creating memories with family and friends. Whether you’re rocking that gorgeous Easter dress, coordinating with your loved ones, or designing a tablescape that’s worthy of Instagram, let’s make this Easter the best one yet. Let’s bring back Sunday best in style and celebrate with all the fabulousness this season has to offer!
