There is nothing more exciting than getting dressed up and going out on a date! Especially when the weather is sunny and 80 degrees and the whole weekend lies in front of you. Dating this guy has been such a blast this year! We love to share apps and entrees and compare tasting notes. And of course, he is so handsome sitting across the table!
With summer date nights on the horizon, thredUP asked me to put together some date night looks to share on the blog. This is my third post with thredUP (see last fall’s dress selection and my workout steals post!), so I have learned the ropes!
thredUP is the largest online store that buys and sells high-quality secondhand clothing for women and kids. All of the items are in like-new condition, or even brand new with tags, at up to 90% off retail price. What I love most about it is that there is such a huge selection that you can always find what you’re looking for, whether filtering by size, category, or a specific brand, like J Crew, Banana Republic, GAP, Anthropologie, and more.
For a polished evening…
Dress: Nally & Millie ($32.99 // retail $119)
Clutch: Urban Expressions ($15.99 // retail $50) <– my favorite item!
And when it gets chilly, add a pashmina! ($6.99 // retail $24)
For a more formal occasion, I love this strapless Banana Republic dress! The colors and pattern are so bright and festive. I added a cardigan because it was a bit chilly that night.
Dress: Banana Republic ($26.99 // retail $95)
Cardigan: J Crew Factory ($10.99 // retail $33)
Heels: Nine West ($20.99 // retail $74)
When it does warm up a bit, this floral dress is great for a sunny spring day:
Dress: BB Dakota ($24.99 // retail $95)
Wedges: J Crew ($30.99 // retail $128) <– big steal! Love the gold.
And of course, same dress, plus accessories!
When you’ve worn every dress in your closet too many times to count, thredUP offers a Clean Out Kit that helps simplify the consignment process by letting you fill up a bag and ship it back to them. Reducing, reusing and recycling with thredUP makes Mother Earth happy. I have a bag in my possession to send in some things from the winter.
thredUP is offering KERF readers an extra 40% off your first order with the code KATH40! (Applies to new US customers only. Discount up to $50.)
Happy date nights to all!
A huge thanks to Thomas for agreeing to be in this post : ) And to my friend Dana, who is great behind the camera, for meeting us in downtown Belmont to take these photos! And thanks to thredUP for always keeping me on my toes in heels, and for sponsoring this post!

Christina @ Montessoriishmom.com says
Love all three dresses and love thredup! I just sent in a big bag last week and am hoping to get a good credit to do some summer shopping 🙂
Mandy @ The Mood Eater says
You look so cute and happy, Kath! I recently tried thredUp to sell some unused clothes and am waiting on my credit! I know it won’t be for a ton of $$, but hey, I cleaned out my closet, so I’m thrilled! Maybe I need to put my credit into buying at thredUp, they have some adorable things!
Carrie this fit chick says
Date nights aremyFAVORITE! Always look forward to them with my man. You pull off bright patterns and colors SO well!
Kori says
You look amazing, and I love that clutch! Turquoise <3
Linda @ the Fitty says
I hope that I can find myself a great honey like you,Kath.
Sarah says
Looks like some good prices. My issue with companies like thredup is that I would rather shop the sale racks and get good deals. With the exception of Anthro, Jcrew/banana/gap/dept stores put everything on sale or at deep discount where I never spend more than the thred up prices anyways, but am not wearing someone’s sweaty/used sports bra or shoes.
KathEats says
You are someone who loves the hunt though I am not! I hate sifting through racks but I can see why others love it. I prefer search engines ?
Samantha says
LOVE the clutch! That color is perfect for summer!
Emily says
I love the bright Banana Republic dress – I remember that from the Trina Turk colloboration. Lots of great summery looks.
Chelsea says
I honestly wouldn’t be drawn to any of those myself, but they look so amazing on you! I should branch out to some brighter colors. Happy date nighting!
Kylie says
Love this post! SO FUN!!
Pauline says
You look absolutely radiant in the photos with Thomas :). How did you explain to Mazen that you and Thomas are a couple now?
Hayley says
Kath I was looking for your Thredup box reviews and found this post. So much fun! I love those earrings, I’m not sure what to search for, but do you recall where you purchased them? Thanks!
Kath Younger says
They’re the Grace Chandeliers from Stella and Dot. Found them on Poshmark here.
