50 Is Not OldTania recently styled our Jade Dress in turquoise for a trip to Cancun (we’re jealous!) and looks absolutely gorgeous! If you’re getting ready to take a trip to somewhere warm, we always recommend packing dresses! They’re easy to throw on, keep you cool, and look put together.

A Well Styled LifeEven with spring finally here, we’re still experiencing a range of temperatures. Cool mornings, warm afternoons. During these transition months, we love a good sweater that we can easily layer over our short sleeve tops and take off later in the day once it gets warmer!
Jennifer recently styled our knit duster for a casual day of running errands with a cute pair of sandals and her favorite tee.

With each piece of clothing better than the next, it’s hard to pick which pieces we love the most. But, with spring and summer on the brain, we have narrowed it down to two dresses we can’t stop thinking about! And luckily for you, we carry both in our Mashpee boutique and online for easy ordering!
The Livie Dress – $136You can never go wrong with navy and white! This v-neck sleeveless dress has a flattering shape and is perfect for everyday wear but is dressy enough for work and special occasions.

With the holiday season in full swing, it’s important to keep in mind what the holidays are about: giving back. Putting your best foot forward and supporting your community can make a huge difference, no matter how small the gesture is. If you’re stuck on ideas, here are some of our favorites:
If your clothes are in good condition and you simply haven’t worn in in over six months for whatever reason, donate them to a local charity, a church, or pass them on to a family you know in your community. Clothing is expensive and when money is tight, a new winter jacket or clean socks isn’t always a top priority.
Charities need contributions to keep running and to be able to help others. Whether you’re donating $2.00 or $100.00, every little bit counts and will go towards someone in need. If you often forget about contributing, many charities will offer reoccurring contributions at whichever price point you choose. This will help you contribute on a consistent basis.
Volunteering is one of our favorite ways to give back. There’s a volunteering opportunity for everyone, no matter what your interests are! From reading to children at the library to walking dogs at your local shelter and even visiting sick patients at the hospital.
Many local stores (and even multi-million-dollar ones!) will offer a shopping for a cause night around the holiday season. Join us on Wednesday, December 6 from 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM for our Holiday Shopping Night. All you have to do is bring in an unwrapped toy to donate to charity and receive 10% off your purchase!
If you have any questions regarding our Holiday Shopping Night or are looking for other ways to give back, call us today at (508) 477-1402.
The holiday season is here and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon! If you tend to wait until the last minute to figure out what to wear for your holiday party or are stuck for ideas, we’re here to help. Although everyone loves dressing up, wearing floor length ball gowns, and wearing gorgeous heels, not all holiday parties require black tie apparel. More often than not, many holiday parties are casual but if you’re worried you’ll be too casual, these outfit ideas will help you gain that elevated holiday look.
Fun, cozy sweaters are always in rotation at Purple Poppy throughout the winter, but they don’t always have to be styled casually! By pairing your favorite sweater with a pair of trousers and a fun heel will instantly elevate any sweater for the holidays.

Are you a big fan of layering? Us too! Jennifer from A Well Style Life styled our cashmere topper and fringe scarf to run errands, but we love the look for holiday gatherings, too. Our cashmere topper looks amazing layered with you favorite dress and comes in over 40 colors.

If you’re attending a casual holiday gathering, wearing denim is acceptable but dressing it up with a statement sleeve sweater, heels, and fun accessories will help elevate your denim. If you want to stay on the casual side, jeans with embroidery and embellishments are a fun way to incorporate fun details!

It’s always difficult to figure out to wear during this time of fall. Even though the days are still warm, winter is right around the corner and we’re already experiencing chilly temperatures, especially during our morning and evening commutes. Dressing strategically is the name of the game and we’re here to help you navigate your wardrobe during these transition months.
With temperatures changing sporadically throughout the day, layering is one of our favorite ways to ensure we’re prepared for any weather that might occur throughout the day. Vests, jackets, scarves, and wraps are going to be the foundation for all of your layering needs and can easily be transitioned from fall to winter, and even be worn during the chilly spring months.
Leggings are a wardrobe staple and can easily be styled for any season. Our Lysse Ainsley Legging add the perfect amount of flair to any outfit and have invisible zip vents on the side. You’ll ever have to worry about comfort or fit with our signature Ponte material, it’s easy to get on and easy to get off.
Jackets are one of our favorite transition month accessories. When you find one you love, you’ll never want to take it off. Our Damee Polka Dot Jacket is light enough so you don’t over-heat in the fall but is also warm enough for the cold winter months. The neutral polka dot pattern is simple but can still be warn to upscale events during the holiday season without being too overwhelming to the eye.
JAG Jeans is one of our favorite denim brands that we carry at Purple Poppy. With numerous different styles, we’re sure you’ll find a pair that compliments your shape perfectly. Every pair is soft, stretchy, and our girlfriend style are the perfect pair for fall. On the edge of a boyfriend jean, this pair is a little slimmer with a structured waistband, sandblasted distressing, and a raw hem.
Some days aren’t quite cold enough for a jacket and all you need is a cozy sweater. If you’re looking for a sweater that you can easily dress up or down, and even wear to work, our Bobeau Cora Ruffle Sleeve Sweater is for you! The statement sleeves are stylish but not overwhelming.
Talk about the perfect transitional item! Our cashmere dress topper can be worn as a wrap over your favorite blouse or camisole and can also be warn pulled forward as a scarf to pair with your favorite jacket for winter. Available in over 50 colors, we’re sure you’ll find the perfect color for your lifestyle!
