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!

This past weekend, I took a quick trip down to DC where the weather was insanely gorgeous — I’m talking pops of neon, bare legs and open toes kind of gorgeous!  As much as I love taking in all the monuments (especially at night), this time around, my favorite moment involved sitting on the National Mall, with reading material in hand and sans shoes on my feet.  Sometimes seemingly small moments that turn out to be incredibly monumental.

I don’t really believe in love at first sight, but that definitely changed when I first laid eyes on this dress from Tobi.  From the sweet lace in the front to the sultry cutout in the back, I knew it had to mine.  I mean call me crazy for going backless right after a blizzard hit the city, but love makes you do stupid things, right?  What will you be wearing this Valentine’s Day?
