As a prelude to spring, I’m busting out the brightest hues in my closet all week.  But after Monday’s over the top color combo, I thought I’d turn it down — just a notch.

The last time I wore this neon lace skirt, I was completely decked out for summer.  To make this standout piece work while transitioning  from winter to spring, I balanced the bold color with a cream sweater, leopard heels and simple accessories.

I’m all about mixing spring clothing into my winter wardrobe — and from the looks of it — the guy photobombing in the background agrees completely!

    This is perfect. You’ve made the skirt look seasonaly appropriate. I love those items you can wear across multiple seasons. With a little creativity it can happen. Great job. And how funny is that guy in the background!

    There’s a photobomber in the 5th picture! Other than that, neon actually looks good with a neutral color.
