pastel + paisley.

May 13, 2013

Buttoned up shirts tied over colorful dresses — it’s kind of my jam and you’re gonna be seeing a lot of this combo over the summer. It’s a quick and easy way to spice up a dress and quadruple your wardrobe options. And if you’re always in a rush to run out the door like me, this is the kind of outfit that will let you snooze for those extra ten minutes. Happy Monday peeps!

spring medley.

May 6, 2013

Having a case of the Mondays seems to only get worse in the spring. I spent most of the morning wistfully wishing it was the weekend again and I can’t wait to get back to exploring the city, lounging around in the park and twirling around in bright, floral outfits and cheerful accessories.

four ways to wear: neon + pastels.

May 1, 2013

The blogger collaboration is finally back! I’m SO thrilled to be teaming up with Amanda of Little Miss Fearless, Lynzy of Sparkling Footsteps and Caitlin of A Little Dash of Darling to show you four different ways to wear spring trends. Today, we’re kicking it off with how to mix neon and pastels!

With spring in full swing and summer just around the corner, neon will be in heavy rotation. Don’t worry, the ultra-saturated hues are much more wearable than you think. You can pair neons with neutrals to play it safe or pile neons on neons to go all out. But if you’re looking to shake things up, try mixing neons and pastels for a look that’s both colorful and balanced.

I paired chartreuse with mint and quite possibly discovered my new favorite color combo of the season! Check out how Amanda, Lynzy and Caitlin mixed neon and pastels and let me know what you think of the trend!
