After overdosing on color from yesterday’s outfit, my best friend asked me to give an ode to black. I just about died laughing at the request. She lives in LA and wears mostly dark shades while I live in NYC and wear mostly colorful brights — it’s quite a comical contrast. Well boo, this is as good as it’s gonna get: my (almost) ode to black, because it wouldn’t be me without a few pops of neon.

I usually like to plan an outfit around one piece — a statement necklace, a printed blouse or a pair of killer shoes — and build from there. Well today’s outfit was spontaneously jam-packed with a few of my favorite things: floral, lace and neon. There wasn’t really a starting point — just a bunch of fabulously bright and punchy pieces from my closet coming together to make one heck of a colorful spring outfit. Try it some time — you’ll never know what you’ll come up with!

Today, I thought I’d share another one of my fail proof style formulas: stripes and florals. I’ve been wearing this combo a lot lately (last seen here and here) and as you know, when I find something I love, I stick to it! If you’ve been wanting to get into mixed prints, this is definitely the playful pairing to get you started. Take any thin-striped top (like this) and pair with different floral prints for a variety of summer savvy looks.
