I have to say, while I'm a sucker for color and prints, I also am equally a fan of a minimal, neutral look.  And although I don't typically gravitate towards it when getting dressed, I find it's what I'm most drawn to when looking at inspiration such as Pinterest (exhibits A, B, C)....probably because I could use a little reminder that less is more often than not more.  The south is all about bold vibrant colors and prints, and I don't foresee myself ever gravitating away from that mindset; however, I really do love a minimal palette.  It's no muss or fuss and yet I believe it makes just as much of an impact as a colorful rig.  

Side note, remember THIS POST?  I'm going to forewarn you that we'll probably see something quite similar mid summer showcasing all the ways I'm going to repeat the hell outta THIS VEST...it's definitely been on heavy rotation these days!  Alright gang--cheers to a productive Thursday--got lots to cross off my To-Do's...make it a good one!

Happy Sunday, Gang!  Not sure about your parts of the world, but here in Lex, we're having an absolutely stunning Sunday.  

Always a lover of Duel Spots, I knew the moment I spotted this Clare Vivier Spotted Tote at Omar + Elsie, it had to be mine.  And when I tell you it goes with so much more than meets the eye, I ain't lying!  I basically carried it my entire weekend in Dallas and have continued to do so since.  For me, a look such as this goes the distance--polished and put together and yet has elements of detail that make it more than just a jeans-and-blouse-kinda-look.  Definitely plan on wearing for an evening out with some gal pals or tossed on with ballets for a daytime look.  

Cheers to a lovely Sunday and swing on back by  tomorrow for a new outfit post--Make it a good one!
