Pale Pink / Blush Spring Color Trend

Love is in the air (isn’t it always?).  Valentine’s Day and spring are just around the corner and the season has got me seriously crushing on all things pale pink.  Whether it’s just a dash or a full on overdose of blush — I have every intention of wearing this ultra-feminine hue like it’s the new black.

Valentines Day DIY Calendar

This week, I …

• Bought this scalloped hem dress.  The boyfriend asks: “Did you cut those out with those craft scissors?”

• Hit my halfway mark of year 27 and I have barely completed anything that I set out to do this year.  Ugh, time to get my ass in gear!

• Am contemplating whether I need a pair of silver pumps this spring.  Yay or nay?

• Really started getting into the Valentine’s Day spirit.  Prepare for red, pink and heart-shaped everything!

• Was crushing on all things powder blue, but this pale pink beauty might be my new favorite color for spring.

• Have a good laugh every time someone says I should buy this Kate Spade plate because it has my blog name on it, but it’s actually this necklace that’s on my wish list!

• Set my eyes on this varsity jacket.  It’s not my usual style, but I really dig it.

• Tallied up this month’s shopping expenses.  I was under budget and saved over $500 in discounts.  I’d call that a win!

• Booked my ticket to North Carolina for the Fourth of July.  Feels so far away, but I can’t wait for a weekend at the lake house with my best friends!

Celebrated my last day of work at my old job.  Starting on Monday, I’m off on an exciting new journey with ANN INC.!
