I have good and bad news.  The bad news is that this is the last round of my style collaboration with Amanda of Little Miss Fearless, Lynzy of Sparkling Footsteps and Caitlin of A Little Dash of Darling.  The good news?  We’re showing you how to tackle one of my favorite trends: mixing florals and stripes!

I’ve been rocking this look so much this spring (last seen here and here) that I almost ran out of pieces to pair!  But fret not, I pulled this gorgeous floral midi skirt from storage and threw it on with my favorite summer blouse.  I raved about this style formula a few weeks ago and I stick by my words: pairing florals and stripes is the easiest and chicest way to mix prints.

See how Amanda, Lynzy and Caitlin mixed florals and stripes and try it for yourself!

Three day weekends are the best … until they’re over.  The downside: Major case of the Mondays.  The upside: It’s actually Tuesday!  And as always, I try and start the week off with a chic little number that works at the office or at a much needed happy hour.

Gray and gold is the color combo du jour, punctuated with my new favorite sequin clutch and a touch of neon.  How are you surviving the post-holiday blues?

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!
